carry Denny to his comer. Leonard revived
after a few minutes, nnd, "Hope you

feebly opened his eyes. While Leonard
looked around as If he was In n liar., Till
man started to leave-t)o ring amid thunder

Johnny woke up.
Only a Dream
U was only a dream. It had been one of
the few Tillman ever enjoyed, and If we are
to belleo Tillman, the dream Is going to be
repeated really and truly Monday night
Ask Tillman and convln.'e yourself. Johnny
Is a believe In dreams; some. persoiiR t-ay
they come true, and so does Tillman, so
there you have a corking good tip on how
Monday night's contest will terminate; that
Is, If dreams come true.
Tillman has engaged In less than fifty
bouts, forty-six to be exact. His career In
the pastime of "wallop the other guy and
'try to make him miss" has extended over
a period of a few months more than four
jears. Johnny will tell you that he never
was beaten until his match with Henny
Leonard here, September 25 of last year.
This was JoVm'R first sctbnrk. ho declares,
and although he pleased Bonn spectators by
his wonderful bout on that night. Tillman
himself wasn't pleased or ratlsfled. Ilo
wanted another chance to wipe out the only
decision of opinion ngainst him, nnd now
that he I" to get It. Tlllmnn feels good, espe
cially after his dream.

The above holdface line has been staring
Tillman In the face since his most enjoyable
eleeplng vision of a few nights ago, And
the line positively will appear in the an
nual 19 IS boxing records, says our very
confident Mr. Tillman.
Now Philadelphia Resident
Tillman Is a Ilohemlan nnd one of the
few If not the only Ilohemlan boxer In the
world. Born In Minneapolis October 11.
1893, quick calculation shows that he has
not reached his twenty-fourth birthday.
He was reared In Minneapolis, got the bene
fit of a gramnvr-flchool education and "did"
a term or two In high school, but now Till
man Is a rhiladclphlan. a true Philadelphia
cltlien and member of the Corley.C. C.
Johnny believes In all his travclR he neer
was accorded better Roort-rellowshlp than
here In the City of Brotherly Love, and the
Mlnneapollst hns decided to become "one of
Ms."
When Tillman started his career as a
fighter-man he went off like a shot from a
forty-two centimeter. He hit Jlarry Brown,
Leo Stein and Kid Murphy nnd, respec
tively, each hit the floor In the third, sec
ond and fourth rounds. Then he went
along knocking down .and winning from all
opponents he had at home. His victories,
howeer, were known to Minneapolis fans
only; nobody 10" miles. from the city was
aware who Johnny Tillman was.
)cides to Travel
All boxers want the world to hear of
their gteat, accomplishments, and Johnny
Is one of the mob. So Minneapolis was
left behind and Tillman hied himself to
Duluth, whero he won three flfteeil-iound
bouts, and Johnny wan to go oh further
East, but the "coming champion;' re
turned home. He got homesick. Tillman
continued winning bouts, boxing at home.
Jumping now and then to Duluth, Hlbblng,
Minn., Superior, -Wis. ; Fan Clair, Wis.;
Hudson, Wis., and St. Paul, Minn., never
very far from his front (footstep ,
But still Tillman glimpsed er the east
ern papers for his boxing achievements in
aln. Finally, when March of 1910 rolled
by Tillman decided to step aboard n Pull
man eastward bound nnd he arrived In
Thllly the first week In April. Tillman,
with his alluring "scrapbook," kept by
every aspiring boxer, had little trouble get
ting on here.
Buck Fleming was Tillman's first foe In

thN city. and. like on his firs trip to the
post at home. Johnny romped away with
a flying start. Lddle McAndrcws then
wns met, followed by bouts with Joe Hirst
and young Jack O'Brien. And each time
'nij'nn showed how well he could box. The
Philadelphia fans proved, by their ovations
for Johnny, that they were glad to have
nlm among them And .lawn was mutual.
But he grew homesick. Just as he hnd In I)u-
nun. anil .Minneapolis beckoned to the boxer.
Hack home went Johnny, sorry to leave
I
nuiy anu overjoyed to get to his mother's '
nresiun again. For two months Tillman
made his vacation In Minneapolis, mixing in
flc bouts with his pleasure. Then Johnny
came back for his bout with Ionard ,and
proved himself the first boxer In Philadel
phia who Benny was unable to knock out.
knock down or badly defeat Tillman gave
Leonard his hardest battle In this city, nnd
Johnny added greatly to his already brll
llnt prestige'.
Also Hoses Dundee
While Philadelphia fans were praising
Tillman and his wonderful scrap against
Leonard a Duluth promoter made Tillman,
or rather the manager. Muggsy Taylor, a
tempting offer for a match with Johjiny
Salvatore. and Tillman decided to romp
West once mnr. Thnt's all. Just that one
bout, and then back to Phllly came Mr.
Tillman. .
On his last return here Tillman was
pitted ngainst Johnny Dundee and Buck
Fleming, and Johnny continued his bril
liant boxing The New York matchmakers
got.wlnd of the Mlnneapollst' ImpresRlve
work In the ,clty they call "Sleepy Town"
and sent out wires for him. Walter Mohr,
one of Hie toughest lightweights In the
game, was selected to cut short Tillman's
sensational splurge, but he was defented
decisively Then oung Brown was treated
by Tillman with the same stuff ten davs
later. Another trip West followed, but only
as tap as Columbus, O.. where Bryan
Downey, heralded as a great welterweight,
who three ulghta ago won from Jack Brit
ton. wns taken Into Tillman's enmp.
Now Johnny Tillman, on the strength of.
his bouts In Philadelphia and New York, Is
known to fltlc fans wherever the game Is
In evidence; Tillman Is satisfied. The big
Idea for Mr. Tillman at the present time
Is to pull on Henny Leonard his "1'ardon-the-glove"
apology next Monday night and
Johnny will be in his glory.

WEST PHILA. HIGH
INDOORCHAMPIONS
Close Fight for Track Title
With Central and North
east Rogers High Scorer
N. E. LOOMED DANGEROUS
The prediction that West Phlladelp1ila.
Central High and Northeast High would
fight to n finish for tho Indoor track nnd
Held championships tltlo In tho seienth
annual meet proved true, with West Phila
delphia the uttlmato winner. It wns a
glorious victory for tho schoolboys sporting
the Orange nnd Blue. It was the first tlmo
Central has been denied the Indoor title In
fourteen years.
It must have been an exciting event for
(ho official scorer. Schoolboys who started
a scoring sheet managed to keep up with tho
count until the meet was nenrly hnlf over
and then West Philadelphia and Central
High wero tied with fifteen points each.
Northeast High did not een loom danger
ous. But some fle 'events were still to be
decided and then came the scores In rapid
order.
Northeast High suddenly loomed up n a
dangerous contender. Central High nnd
West Philadelphia were battling for every
point and the final event, the iunrter-mlln
dash, meant victory or defeat for Central,
Northeast and West Philadelphia. As the
Speed Hoys mndo It. and as tho order of tho
finish favored them, II brought victor' to
the school at Forty-eighth nnd Walnut
streets.
Few I'ointH Separate Teams
The first three teams to finish, the favor
ites, all had very fine "cores. West Phila
delphia won with a total of .10 1-5 points,
only two more than the total made by
Northeast High. Central High finished
with twenty-six points A tlrsl plnco would
have turned victory one wnv or another
More thnn half of the Northeast total was
made by one runner. Cnplaln Dewey Itogers
Ho was first In the 220-yard tlnsh. ho won
the quarter mile nnd he was winner of the
standing broad Jump Captain Melllnger
performed splendidly for Central High nnd
was second high Individual point scoter. Ho
captured the 60-yard dnsh. was third In the
220-yard dash nnd waa second In the stand
ing broad Jump
Two Records Are Shattered
Two records were shattered, the first
when Hogers won the 220-yard dash In
23 4-5 seconds and the second when Lewis,
of the Philadelphia Trades School, took
first Place In the shot-put with a heave or
II feet 7'n Inchrs One record was
equaled when ,11m Turner, of the West
Philadelphia High ScIikoI. was first over the
line in 4 minutes and 52 seconds.
Manv times records were approached,
and It 'was thought that new marks would
be made Rogers should have lowered the
iiuarter-mllo-dash record Walsh, of West
Philadelphia, would probably have won the
two-mile In record tlmo Instead of 2 min
utes, II seconds If he had started his sprint
llnlsh early In the race.
Wilson, the West Philadelphia High
Jumper, only had an Inch more to clenr
and he would have hung up a new record

of the absence of hostile submarines, eight
working employes of the Philadelphia base,

The players welcomed the chanre to stretch
their legs nnd added consldeiably to the

and then departed for Jacksonville, where
