, It was said that .Toe devoted most of his
', time In practlelnR lllpflopi and hack hand
tprlngs so ho could Indulge In acrobatic
feats after tne tiRtit was over, just to show
his opponent that he was In good condi
tion. Sometimes, however, he did not wait
until tho battle ended to pull his act, but
turned tack somersaults and slid nlontr the
floor on one car all evening, beginning In
tho very flrBt round. But Joo was taking
no chances with his training, and always
was prepared to do his best.
I Many of our best flstlo experts often re-
f narked that If Grim could fight as well as
L, ttko punishment nothing In tho world
could stop him. They were anxious to see
f their theories tested out, but did not have
t an opportunity until last .Saturday night
I at tho National, when Jean Constance, a
f lightweight from Frnnce, met Johnny Jfcl-
jj son In tho second bout of tho evening.
I Here's Another Grim
Constance Is tho cause of this long
preamDie. ior it was no who out-Grimed
Grim, took ns much punishment ns Joo

- Tho Constnnco-Xulstm battlo was the
feature bout of the evening It only
lasted four rounds, but that was be
cause Jeans lip wns seriously cut and
Dick Curliv, who was In the French
man's corner wisely Insisted that hostili
ties cease Jack McGulgan concurred.
Nelson began to reach Constance with
.left Jabs and rights to tho jaw In tho
first round .md had the foreigner groggy
at the end In the second, Johnny diopped
his opponent with n haid right mid It
lool'cd as If the bout was over. Jean
was up Immediately. hovoer, and then
began to absorb cnouuh minlshment to
j last an ordinary boxer a mouth. Nelson
wt him almost nt will, knocked htm all
pier tlio ling, but Jean fought back and
several times shook Johnny with stiff
blows. It was the samo In tho third and
fourth rounds, and when tho bout wns
stopped tho plucky F.onchman was
cheered as much as tho victor.
Second Bout Stopped
This li tho second tlmo In two weeks
that a bout has been stopped nt tho Na
tional and tho audience was fair In each
case. .When Micky Donley was unable
to answer tho bell In h's contest with
Chaney tho crowd knew ho liad done tho

& only fair but cood snortsmen.
I Constance has tho makings of a good
t ooxer and will give a good account of
1 himself when ho learns how to defend
Himself properly.
Joe Azcdo seemed a trlflo stale when
he met Jack Brazzo, but the llttlo Portu
gese won tho bout. Joo has been boxing
regularlv In N'ew England of late, and

Although Henry Hletzer has posted

tho Pimm I.EDonn, as a forfeit to meet
Johnny Kllbano in Baltimore on March

the National a week ago nnd Cal Dclancy
In Clox eland lait Wednesday, some ques
tion has been raised as to the llttlo Hal
timoreatrs chances against Kllbano and
his right to moot tho champion for tho
title. Many believe that Pliancy wouldn't
last 10 rounds with Kllhnno, ns Johnny
could kenp tho cbnllenger off with a
straight loft and nwild tho rushing tne
tics. Chaney just wades Into an oppo
nent, takes a punch to land ono nnd
would ho easy for a clever man who
co 'Id jab and punch hard.
It Is said remember, IT IS SAID
that n still hunt Is being mado for a
GOOD featherweight In thoso United
State3 to (ako Chaney's place If George
refuses to talk business and put tho GOOD
featherweight on with Kllbano In a bat
,tlo for tho championship. At tho present
wrltlnr wo do not know whether It is n
ntOMISK or only a TimUAT.
Now for Erne
Just a minute, men. a courier from
Johnny Burns has arrived. Ho has a
message. Give It a look:

BAUMGARTNER SIGNS
CONTRACT WITH PHILS
Pitcher Accepts Terms, Which
Aro Better Than Last Year.
Itixey Only Holdout
Stanwood liaumgartuer, the former I'ni
vorsity of Chicago poitsldo heaver, tum.d
In his contract with tho Philadelphia N'.i
tlonal I.caguo Club today. Tho cuntinct Is
for ono year, and calls for a slight ln
creaso over tho salary handed him in
1015.
Tills leaves Kppa r.lxoy, tho lanky Vlr
gjtiian, the only member of tho Phils who
has not signed a 101C contract. Thero Is
said to bo a dlfforenco of $700 between
Itixey and tho Phils that is, Illxey wants
$700 moro than tho Phils want to pay.
If ni'xoy doesn't sign his contract
within tlio noxt few days ho may ro-
celvo tho samo kind of a letter as was
forwarded to Pitchers Tlncup and Heaum
gartner. They were requested to return
their signed contracts within u week or
to remain away from tlio training camp.
Tlncup camo through at onco and liaum
gartuer soon got Into line. Thero was a
thought that Uaumgartncr might not ro
turn to tho Phils this season, as tlio
southpaw wished to llnlsh his law course
at tho University of Chicago. IIo no doubt
will flnhh it soma other time.
Itixey nnd tho Phils' management havo
had trouble in coming together for tho
lust two seasons. Tho elongated Virginian
was the last to alllx his "John Hancock"
to tho papers uory year since he joined
tho club, but this year tho Phils nro not
likely to fool with tho lanky portslder as
much ns In other years. Itixey, however.
Is needed by the Phils, for ha has the
makings of tha host left-hander in tha
business.
