THE EVENING WORLD, TUESDAY, MARCH 328, GIANTS AT LAST SHOW THEIR REAL CHAMPIONSHIP -FORM~ SOMETIMES THEY COME BACK __ - E terrific beating Fireman Jim Flynn gave Carl Morris in Madison Square Garden when Morris came East as a "white hope ‘Will not be soon forgotten, But there was a sequel. Morris and Flynn fought again down in Texas a shori time ago. Flynn had been “doing a come-back," in which he knocked out two or three local heavies in some thing like his old style. Then they vent for Morris and matched him with Flynn “This isn't going fight,’ said Morris. “I'm going even an old score with Flynn." & And he did. Refusing knock Flynn out, master of every moment in the fight, Morris jabbed and hooked and uppereut the Fireman until Fiynn reeled around the ring, almost ” bodily beaten as Morris was years ago f [can't tick anyone et ; Brinned Morris after the fight, “I've Paid Jim Flynn all | owed him.” ILL, WELLMAN, wiio was 9 ser B geant in the army and because i of his wide experience in pro moting sporting events was put in e of muny of the army athletic and boxing meets in France, has been to be a short wo : waking a whirl at promoting wrestling FI bouts in Madison Square Garden, New ) York. Et. Perhaps wrestling doesn't thrive when honestly conducted. Hippodrom- ing may be the important feature of the grappling game. At any rate, Wellman selected his matches with care and made sure they'd be squarely contested under Mr. Muldoon’s rolling + end flying fall rules. The first, be- ‘ tween Stanisiaus Zbyszko and Earl Caddock, drew a gate of $30,000. | The second, between Wladek Zbyszko and Stecher, was a bust. The gate flopped to mere $8,500, which is hardly expense money in the Garden. ‘The fans don't care for the flying and rolling falls which made it pos- sible for a man to throw himself and cut out the spectacular features of shippodromed matches. ‘The public Vikes to be fooled. The two hour and “'forty-minute matches run by the clock, with a lot of circus stuff lead- Ing up to the deciding pinfall, is prob- ably more entertaining. Wellman has ecided to step aside and let wreatling in New York become one of the lost : arts. Sverre lucky with his hands. Before he became an expert boxer he ‘knocked his right thumb out of place two or three times, and even now he | \@ceasionally puts it out of place again . with « hard punch. Leonard's hands ‘ren't very large, and he's a markably hard hitter. Leonard's injured hand may be the Chief reason for the postponement of the Leonard-White contest. But an- } other reason is that the bout is going fo be one of the greatest draws of the year apd a much larger gate can be \takew in if it is held in one of the big outdoor arenas in the summer time. Leonard will probably, meet White and ; \Tendler in open air arenas, making ‘this his biggest and perhaps his last Beason as an active lightweight cham- ‘pion. Benny has cleared a fortune in the ‘ring and in business, and uniess he 008 up a notch and takes the welter- weight championship this year he may make up his mind to retire while at the top of his form and undefeated Leonard has been considering this for the past year, If he does retire and stay in retirement he will be the first undefeated lightweight champion since the days of sack McAuliffe. Jack was 4 wise bird. When he found that he was about through he dropped out of the game. Other Kreat champions, once whipped, have been forgotten, but McAuliffe is still making 4 fair living on the strength Bones LEONARD has been un- re- of his old reputation EMPSEY says that a man D eighing 150 pounds is big enough to fight any one. Jeff- ries had the same idea when a young- ster. He wanted to be light and fast When Big Jim trained to fight Bob Fitzsimmons for the championship he worked down to 190 pounds. His nat- ural weight, in good condition, was 220, At 190 he was so weak that ‘Tommy Ryan hammered him all over the training quarters. So they made Big Jim eat and rest and put on eight pounds, and at 188 he knocked Fitzsimmons out. He never tried to eut his weight down again, and when he fought later, at 220 to 225 pounds, he was a much tougher proposition But Jeffries was built to carry about 226 pounds when in good fighting trim. Dempsey hes small legs and narrow hips, His weight is all abov> the waist, so 190 pounds will probaoly be his best fighting weight os lone as he is right.

(Special to The Evening World) FORT WORTH, Tex., March 28 When a team is hitting and getting good pitching at the same time it wins ball games. The Giants hit the ball right on (he nose in the seventh game of the exhibition series with the Chicago White Sox yesterday at the local ball park, while ponderous Fred ‘Toney and Claude Jonnacd, the young right bander from Little Rock, pitched so effectively that the American Leaguers failed to score in seven of the nine innings. The Giants showed their real class yesterday and ploughéd up the mud- dy field with base hits. The New York players hammered the offer- ings@or Red Faber, Gleason’s pitoh- ing ace, for seventeen hits in six im- nings and scored eleven runs while he graced the mound. In the rst inning alone the Giants made seven hits and scored six runs, while in the third inning Frank Frisch, the Fordham flash, drove the ball over the right fleld fence. It was his second homer in the last two days. McGraw, disappointed at the fail- ure of his (eam in Dallas on Sun- day, was pleased with the splendid exhibition of his athletes yesterday. The Giants performed in a faultless manner in the field, although it rained during the early part of the game “and the fleld was muddy and slip- | pery. Ralph Shinners, the recruit from Indianapolis, made several pret- ty catches in centre field, while Frisch was a busy boy around sec- ond base, Frisch's spiked foot is not entirely healed, and the Fordham flash is wearing a tennis shoe when he is not playing ball. Shinners will start the season in centre field for the Giants, although Manager McGraw has not decided upon the Indianapolis recruit as yet The youngster returned to the line- up yesterday, replacing Cunningham. He beat out a bunt on his first ap- pearance at the plate and later made two singles, one to centre field and the other to right. Shinners hit the ball harder tian Cunningham and more often, and now is the logical candidate for George Burns's place in centre field. Young McMillan Gets Place In Yankees’ Outfield Baker Will Play Pipp First, Manager Hug- gins Declares. evening World.) ex., March 28.—The Yankees made the first jump of their two thousand mile exhibition tour to the North last night with the Brook- lyn Robina and invaded this busy oi! nd lumber town to-day, with the in- habitants threatening to take a full day off in order to see Babe Ruth and his wonderful home run bat. Only the Ruth part of the Yankee slugging attraction came along. Bob Meusel, his partner in slugging and in sus- pensions, has gone to New York for an operation on his tonsils. He hasn't been “night” since landing at the New Orleans camp, and Miller Huggins wishes to get him i shape for the time when he will return to the big team’s line-up in May. Huggins, by the way, announced to-day his batting order for the first championship game on April 12, when the Yankees will appear, sans Ruth and sans Meusel, Here it is: Fewster, left field; Miller, centre field; Baker, third base; Pipp, first base; McMillan, right field; Waad, second base; Scott, shortstop, and the catcher and pitcher, Raker, by this arrangement, takes the place of Ruth in the batting order, Pipp steps into Baker's niche, and young McMillan will fill the shoes of the absent Meusel. Huggins is thoroughly satisfied with McMillan ‘This kid haa done everything for me this spring that f have asked him to do, and done jt well," said the Yank manager to-day. ‘He was put in the outfield because I needed a hard right handed }ytter in the line-up.

A. I. baseball championship for Greater New York. During the en- tire season George Washington lost only two games, one to Commerce ‘High and tie other to Lane Tech. of Chicago, for the intercity champion- ship. The following veterans of last season's nine are expected to add strength to this year's team: Harold QMickey) McCann, captain and catcher; Algora Tomisawa, second base; Hugh McConnville, pitcher; Hyman Schwartz, outfield; Har Masor, first base, and Salvatore Masi, substitute catcher last year. Of the new candidates Vincent Masi, short- stop; Harry Baker, outfield; Joseph Fitzgerald, third base, and Abraham Bogan, catcher, have shown the greatest promise and probably will make the varsity team. As yet no pitcher has been found who possesses the skill displayed by Torpe, who last season was by far the best scholastic twirler in the city, Every game he pitched, except two, was a shut-oul, and he performed the “once-in-a-life- time” of pitching a no-hit, no-run game é —— ct & MAY Yer Ger oLyMPrC MEET.
