Joe Humphries Tells Inter

Terry McGovern
YoutiR Corlictt wnlltcd Into Madison
Squnro Gnnlen on tlio MrM Hint Vrpclttlo
Welsh nml Benny Leonard looil t'orlictt
nml Joe Humphries sat toRCtlier on a. sin
Bio clinlr watching tlu two grrnt IlKhl
weights raco Ihroiisli their 10 lotiml of
linnl milling. "lllll." salit Humphries,
suddenly, "do joii remember where ou
were. 13 yenrs ngo this very tilRht this
Very hour?"
Corhett loo1ed tip with a surprised
Blanco at the slhor-throntcd one.
"Thirteen years nRo. Olvo ma some
thing easy will you?" said Corbet.
"Well. Blnro you forget I'll remind you."
came back Humphries "It a.t in yoarM
nfo tonight that you Knocked out Terry
JtcOovcrii for tlio second time In the light
at San Francisco."
"Thirteen year ago tonlRht." mused
Corbett thoughtfully. "Oee, tlmo N u
IloctlnR old bird, Isn't she. ,loe? So I
Knocked that llttlo follow out in c.irs
ago," continued Corbett Then he slid
denly seomed to remember that Humphries
was McGoNcrn'a friend at tlio time 'nr
bctt leaned oxer nml touched Humphries
on tho nrm.
"No hard fcellngf. ,Ioe," s.lld the onoo
grent fighter as ho held out his pudgy
hand.
"N'onc In the world," mine bid: Hum
phries And they shook on It.
Homo one nsked Humphries the other
day whether Terry McGovern uns ever
lightweight champion of the world
"Ho waq and ho wasn't," answered Joo.
"It was this wa. Terry and Krnnk
Hrno fought at 12S pounds Hmo was
tho lightweight champion of tho world,
having won the tltde from I-avlRnc Terry
knocked him out, nml though they weren't
lontcstlng at tho lightweight limit, Terry
got tho credit for knocking out the cham
pion of his class. Ho weighed it great
ileal lefs than Hrne. Terry went to Krne
after tho fight and said: 'I'l.ink, I don't
want jour title. I'm too small rt man to
defend It. They ro nil good Hoys In jour
class nnd it would be linking too much of
a llttlo fellow llko mo to sttnd them all
off Keep your title. I don't want It.'
"So you sec," said Humphries, "Terry
was never tho champion of tho light
weights because he refused to tako lime's
crown, though he knocked him out, after
llrno had weakened himself trying to
mako tho low weight "
