lie Shows the PapcrB
Tho plot thickens. Hero nro tho papers
addressed to tho Indignant Jnmes:
Chancy will not box ex-Champion
Kilbano In a no-declslon tout an
place in the world. Kilbano MUST
meet Chaney before the American
Athletlo Association, as he agreed to
do after dictating the terms of the
contract, should he want a chance to
regain the fcathcrtoelgnt title. Chancy
Is not afraid to risk the title.
HENRY BLDTZElt,
ilanagcr of George Chancy, feather
weight champion of the world.
"Now, what do you think of that?"
naked Dougherty. "Heard anything about
a bout between Kilbano and Chancy re
cently? I haven't, nor has any one else.
That mossngo was sent mo nfter I of
fered Chnney n chnnco to box Kilbano In
Lclpervlllo and hung up a good-sized purso
for tho bout.
Will Stage Bout
"I havo been after this match Blnco tho
disagreement over tho battlo scheduled for
March 17 nnd am now In a position to
hold It. I havo made nil arrangements to
put on tho bout In the open air on tho
afternoon of Decoration Day, I havo tho
alto selected, architects nro working on
the plans and Kilbano has consented to
box any logical opponont that can bo se
cured. Chaney seemed to bo the bost
.man, so I nsked him to take tho match.
"This claim made by Chaney Is so ab
surd that It looks foolish. No ono takes
him seriously, and ho will find It out If ha
ever tries to ralso any money on tho tltlo.
He has no license to dlctnto terms to
Kilbano and should bo glad to get n
chance to box tho champion. It is true
that Kilbano signed articles to meet
Chaney In Baltlmoro and then called
everything off, but ho probably had good
reasons for doing bo. He doubted the
ability of tho promoters to go through with
the match. But that doesn't glvo Chaney
the championship.
"As I said, I am In a position to stago a
IB-round bout between Kilbano and
Chaney, and will put up $10,000 for tho
match. If Chaney refuses to accept, an
effort will bo made to got somo one else,
providing ho is good enough. This Billy
Da Foe seems to bo a good boy nnd If ho
can make tho weight ho might get a
chance. But I first considered Chancy,
$5000 to Bind Match
"I will put up $5000 cash as soon as
the articles arc signed to bind the match,
Thls money will bo divided between tho
two boxers If I fall to stage the bout.
However, I shall except Kilbano nnd
Chaney, or whoever meets tho REAL
champion, to put up $1000 each as a
weight and appearance forfeit when they
elsn the papers.
"This proves that I mean business nnd
have every confidence In myself In re
gard to holding the bout. The $5000 cash
' removes the uncertainty that accompanied
t the Baltimore affair, for If I fall to go
, through with my agreement the boxers
will have $2500 each for their trouble.
"I Intend to hold a contest on Decora
' tlon Day, If Chaney wants a chance to
box Kllbane, he can havo It If not well,
there aro others who will be glad to ac
cept the opportunity, It is up to the Balti
more boxer to forget that crazy champion
ship Idea and get down to earth where he
can talk business,"
Pete Herman Is Unlucky
Pete Herman, who gained fame when
he held Kid Williams to a draw a couple
of months ago, has run Into squalls. Pol
lowing his battle with Lew Tendler, Pete
has been rather unfortunate and did not
meet with the success that was predicted
by his well wishers. Last week Herman
boxed Prankte Brown In a hard bout in
Baltimore and developed a blister on his
loot, which later became Infected und
turned into blood poisoning, This forced
him to call off his bout with Eddie O'Keefe
nt the Olympla tonight, and Battling
Reddy, of New York, will take his place.
Herman was anxious to make good and
was to have appeared in the semhvlnd-up
against the fast Philadelphia bantam. It
was quite a drop for a boxer believed to
be as. good, if not better, than Kid Will
lams, the champion.
The wind-up should be Interesting, as
It brings together two of the best boys
In Philadelphia who are striving for a
chance, to box the titleholder, Benny Kauf
man mixes with Lew Tendler, and on
paper It looks like oue of the best bouts
pf the year. The other acts In the show
nro high class.

Meadowbrook Meet
Complications Explained
By A. A. U. Officials
To the Sporting Kdltor of Creiifiifl Lrdocr:
In vlow of tho recognlred fairness nf your
paper toword this association and Its work, I
feet that tho artlclo which appeared tu your
columns, under dnto of Murch IT. should not
bo permitted to ko unanswered.
Too great praise cannot bo given to the
wonderful achievement of the Meadowbrook
Club on the occasion of its Indoor meet. No
such athletic Indour carnival has ever been
undertaken and properly viewed wns a great
success nnd so recognized by both tho public
and all those connected with It.
The personnel of the officials should not be
charged to the Amateur Athletlo Union. In
that they were the appointees of the manage
ment without consultation with this body, but
no criticism can fairly bo mud a of the work
of the same, who, without exception In my
Judgment, showed competency and performed
their assigned duties faithfully and well
The statement that the program was shifted
is unqualttledly false, in that tho "Special
060" was dropped several numbers on the
program to accommodate the uthletea entered
therein, who were not ready when this event
was reached In Its proper order, but In no
other place waa there nny change, and all
thos entered In tho "fluu" who Intended to
start were on the mark when the event was
finally called.
The handicapping may require some explana
tion, but any apparent liberality on the part
of that official In the allotment of marks Is
due solely to the Incomplete, and In many
cases, untruthful, intentional or careless
statements of the athletes regarding their
previous performances This was notably the
case of tho Yale shot-putter, whom ou head
lined, "Hutchinson Was Made the Gout." In
his case over his signature the entry blank
shows his "best put, 37 feet," for which he
was properly allotted 11 feet Q Inches handi
cap or equaling 48 feet tl Inches. The scratch
man was a consistent 50-foot performer
Instead, however, of Hutchinson being cap
able of but 37 feet or thereabouts, be made
the actual nut pf 47 feet 1U Inches. This
was 10 feet 1U Inches better than his re
ported ability. Can any one be fairly crltt
clsed for not assuming the truthfulness of an
athlete's statements, especially as under our
rules one makes himself answerable to the
charges of "unfair dealing" for "suppression
of true figures from the handles pper" I
Again, the marks given to ltoffmlre. IJerry
and others In the mlla run as printed In the
program were Incorrect and changed by In
structions In writing furnished by the handl
capper to the referee and clerk of course prior
to the games, no opportunity being given to
that official to have corrections noted In the
Program. In that, no proof of the same was
urnished In time to correct the printer's
errors.
The childish plaint credited to Mike Oevaney,
of the Mlllrose A. C, by his reputed friends,
is likewise capable of -satisfactory answer, t
am advised he was handicapped far a 4:22
mile, having run on the same track as our
record show in 1015 a mile in .4:21 4-3. The
mile was actually run In 4. HI by an entrant
who claimed as his best performance 1:3'J
outdoors, for wblcb ba received CO yards
handicap. ,
Upon Inquiry of the management of the
meet I learn that Mr. Oevaney was scheduled
to and our records show did run In tho Mill
rose vs. Meadowbrook Itelay, event No. 2& oi.
the program, and no human being could have
done himself Justice, regardless of handicap,
to start In the mile run, event No. 20, Im
mediately thereafter. .....
The whole handicapping situation may be
briefly summed up by saying- the blanks of
the out-of-town entries, notably those of New
England, were very Incomplete and la many
cases proved to be Inaccurate and these entries
were only handicapped by that official after
consulting with the management, who re
quested that ho do the best with tba Informa
tion furnished, and no Just iensur or ad
verse trititism of bis work should go uo-
.nallrea. , . .. . .

ENTER DE FOE,
NEW STAR FROM
ST. PAUL TOWN
Unknown Springs Into
Prominence Over Night
By Trimming Morgan
And now It's Hilly Do Koo. Mllto mil
lions, tho pompadour person, put St. Paul
on the pugilistic map about four years
ngo, when ho came out of tho West, an
unknown, and began to wnllop opponent
after opponent In tho New York Held.
Since then several other scrappers from
tho Minnesota city have been keeping the
Saint P. in bold letters beforo tho fans.
Johnny Krtlo and Milto O'Down stand out
more prominently, both earning their
prestlgo on tho homo hearth. Now, Mr. Do
Foe, who, llko Tompadour Mike, Invaded
the cast unheralded, shapes up as nnother
flstlcumnn who is bound to uphold tho
fighting namo of St. Pnul.
Do Foe made his first nppearance In
Philadelphia at tho Xational Club Satur
day night. This one exhibition wns sufll
clent to satisfy local fans that Billy Is
good, and then some. IMdlo Morgan, who
was unlucky enough to bo Do Foe's op
ponent, also admits It. Tho St. Paul scrap
per had n lot of stuff on tho offensive,
still thero seemed to be something lack
ing. The Defense
Do Foo distributed a pretty trouncing
over the anatomy of Morgan, doing It
nlftlly and nicely. Ho kppt forcing tho
fighting continually, nnd had Kddlo
breaking ground throughout tho match.
Morgan did not scent to bo tho samo
Morgan who fought two sensational
battles with Johnny Kllbane, nnd tho
samo number with Irish Patsy Cllne. Ho
either had an off-night or was "going
back."
Anyway, whether Do Foo can stand .1
gruelling could not bo estimated. Tho few
JabH Morgan landed Billy took without
losing any speed, but Morgan did not
land a solid punch at any tlmo. Ho did
not even b-cak tho skin over tho West
erner's lips. Tlio big question is, enn Do
Foo show up so well In a match with a
boxer who cun btlng him?
Cool. But Wild
Thero wnsn't a second that tho new St.
Paul phonom grew overanxious. Ho was
cool, started his punches easily, but with
plenty of snap, and followed Morgan
nround tho ring carefully. Still, when
Do Foe hnd Sir Kdward in bad shape nnd
it seemed as If only ono good punch was
necessary to finish tho L'ngllshman.
Billy's wallo'p went wide of Its mark.
Several times Do Fore missed with good
punches which probably would havo
ended the battlo had they not been wild.
Do Foe has showed ono side of tho box
ing urt, that fit giving without receiving,
and thero Is no doubt about him being
proficient.. Now It Is up to Billy to provo
that ho is Just as good under lire, and If
he does this a new contender will stand
out prominently on tho trail of Johnny
Kllbane.
With Gibbons, recognized as tho middle
weight champion; O'Dowd, a brilliant con
tender for tho welter title; Da Foo,
anxious for the featherweight laurels,
and Ertle, a dangerous man after Kid
Williams' crown, St. Paul boasts a quartet
of the best boxers In the country today,
Tillman Makes Good
Fighting a rushing and aggressive bat
tle, Johnny Tillman, of Minneapolis,
showed up well In his match with Buck
Fleming. Although the visitor was wild
with his punches, anxious to icore a
knockout on his debut, he proved that
his style appeals to the regular run of
light funs. Tillman has a good straight
left and follows up a right cross In a
corking good ono-two punch. Johnny
can take it, too, as Fleming landed with
some stiff slams on his jaw.
Tommy Buck's three-month lay-off did
him no good, and although he rallied
wonderfully la the last two rounds of his
match with clever Eddie Wallace, the lat
ter deserved the decision. Tommy has
changed his style, having developed a
hard right-hand punch, and because of
his long Inactivity his Judgment of dis
tance was bad. Buck's first punch out of
the box was a Pippin right on Wallace's
loft eye, which was badly bruised after
the match. Another bout probably would
put Buck right, and he -would ba just the
local Jad to try out Mr, llllly Da Foe,
St. Paul, on the latter'a defensive ques
tion. Fred Kelly Breaks Records
CORVALU3. Ore., April 8. Three Indoor
world's records were broken and one equaled
In the meet hebl under Amateur Athletic
Union rules at Oregon Agricultural College.
Fred Kelly, of the Los Angeles Athletic Club,
bettered the world's indoor record tn the 80
ard dash with a time of 8 1-3 seconds, tied
the bO-yard high hurdles, which he won In 10
seconds, and set a new mark in the 220-yard
dash. time. 23 seconds, according to Or. 3S, J.
