Rally, but Is Beaten by 'a Step ' By LOUIS "TOST by a nose" In a fnmlllar term In J-J hprse racing ns Is "beaten by a step" track events, and cither expression an swers the decision of Franltle McMnnus's bout with Johnny Menly at the National Saturday night. McMnnus came through vlth a sixth-round liurst of speed that vould have made Ted Meredith envious, yet Ithe Bostonlan's rally lacked' Just enottRh finishing stuff to bring him to the wlro ahead. It whs even so, "lost by a nose." McManus's credltablo showing Is more so when It Is considered that ho was within nn ace, of being knocked out In the third round and also that he was a pinch boxerr Whllo Mealy did not succeed In dropping his op ponent In that whirlwind third, McMnnus being tho one In a whirl, Frank le virtually was out on his feet. He staggered, rather than hacked, around the ring while Mealy I avalanched Jabs, hooks and swings at Mac's I head. "Koenlnc vour head" Is a good motto in I every wnlk of life ; even more so In tho ring. That McManus has a good head was (proved when Mealy failed to connect with a solitary punch all the while Frank was In a haze. One good wallop only was neces Jsary for Mealy to spill McManus to the floor, but the Rostoiiese's wonderful defense I was evident, Menly kept clouting Frank's EBlovcs, elbows or arms and ottcner re (missed entirely Mealy Takes Lead When thn bell sounded for the opening ; round Mealy romped oft Into tho lead right toff. He Jabbed stinglngly with his left. end when the .round ended McMnnus s nose 'was a rosy red It appeared that McManus , had only another round or two 10 go ne. (for a sudden ending Tho dope, ns usual, twent wrong, however. In the second Mc irnanus did better and held his own. Then itcame the third This round found Mealy shooting his dangerous .right, the wallop Sthat knocked out Artie Stiawhacker and 'Jimmy McCnbe. Johnny landed several times, entirely too high each time, but tho I blows carried sufficient force to shake up E McManus. Ecry one In the audieuco was looking Cfor the old Mary Ann, when, swish, Icowte, Mealy hooked a left and crossed ha right on each side of McManus's jaw tFrankle, clever, defensive, and nlvvays on Ethe alert for Mealy a dangeious kayo, was tpnnirht nnlv nartlallv asleen He was J going away when tho two terrific punches' Handed. He wasn't knocked down, iiui Jthev made Frank's knees sag. Somehow McManus kept his fe,et throughout the round. although he was on the erge of Keeling lover unconscious. Then it was that McManus gave tho fans fan exhibition of what cierensive noxing jreally was. Despite his nppaient weakness and dizziness, Frankle "kept his head " Ho did not reach out to fall into a clinch, ; thereby allowing nn opening for Mealy's wallops, but held his guard high, and picked . off punch after punch, just ns soqn as Mealy started to drive them home. A few r seconds before the bell sounded, which was I like from Providence for McManus, Frankle made a short Hash. Ho shot in a tew itrlaght lefts, the whllo making Mealy miss, McManus Comes Hack .McManus's recuperative powers are won derful. There was no doubt about It when he stepped from his corner for tho fourth frame evidently as fresh as when he first answered the gong. He waited for Mealy to lead Mealy really was tho aggressor throughout and then countered .with left ' hooks to tho body or straight lens to tne head, Frankle showed so well In the fourth that ho earned honors for the round by a margin. Mealy again .held the upper band In the fifth. And then came tho sensational sixth. Never before has a boxer made as great a rally as that of McManus's in that sixth sfsslon at the National Saturday night. Ho was In and out, punching with both hands, jabbing and right-crossing, and all the time Mealy, trying his utmost to connect with the wallop that would ring down tho cur tain, missed, missed, missed. The round was a brilliant finish to a brilliant battle. Enter Honest Injun Chief Turner admits that he Is a real, live, redskin, nnd pioves It by saying thnt he was of the Sioux tribe fiom North Dakota. The Chief is twenty-two years old and about threo years ago he matricu lated' to St. Paul, Minn., where he picked up the mqnly art. Turner's knockout over Johnny Holland Saturday night was his fif. teenth In twenty-three bouts and his first appearance In tho Kast. Speaking of, golf, Turner Is a real "follow through" puncher. His Jabs carried so much force that In the first round a straight left dropped Holland for a clean knock down, and later, before Holland quit In the fifth, the Chief staggered his opponent sev- : . eral times with straight lefts. lAy'l Turner also possesses a coiklng right crosH ana uses nis jau aim nuoa m .-. iuchj, I precise one-two punch. Tho Chief hooks tirell, too, and, foremost of nil, he has a f'good head" the Indian is as cool as me Cproverblal cucumber. Yet whlu Turner J showed a lot of goou puncning nut uemuii tstratlon was not of the classy or flashy Jftype. He worked like a clock, steadily, and Idldn't seem to work harder at one time than lat another.

Henny McNeil, nn Ktigllshmitn who mado n won derful rep in tho West, meets Kid Williams In tho wind-up at the Olympla. Young Mendo will have tho pleasure of making his Introduction first by boxing In tho semlwlnd-up. Ho will meet Joe Doyle. McNeil's meeting with Kid Williams will not be his first experience in tho s.uno ring with tho Hal'tlmoro Hearcat. They boxed once before nnd It was for fifteen rounds. Freddy Sears says McNeil scored two knockdowns over the former champ, yet the reports gavo Williams the bout. If McNeil wero to drop Williams twice to night It would be sufficient for Ilenny to grab off tho decision, as two knockdowns In six rounds Is n mighty big lead to overcome. Johnny Dundee's western trip Is nil off. Tho little New York ItaMan was booked to bo'x nt Ogden, I'tali, Frldny night, but be cause of the holiday, Dundee wanted the contest postponed.

RECORD ENTRY IN RELAY CARNIVAL More Than 325 Teams Will Compete in Greaft Penn Meet April 27, 28 PARKER, IOWA, MAY COME HnlriPH fur Pennsylvania's rel.i lace car nival, April 27 and :'S, closed today. A record-breaking list of colleges and schools has been received Seventy-four colleges, 107 high Fchools, fifty-three piep schools, heenty-three grammar schools and seven parochial schools arc on the list, with prob ably a few more to enter today. The total, 31 4, Is twenty more than weie here last year. As this does not count the colleges that will send on more than .one team, it seems that more than 325 teams will be In notion at this gieat meet. Packer, of Iowa State College, yesterday M'nt word that he was In training for the pentathlon event, and that if he could get n little more distance on the Javelin and discus ho would como Kast to try con clusions with Perry and the other college all-around stars that will be In this event. Packer Is one of the greatest hurdlers in tho country, as he has done 14 4-5 seconds for the high sticks. In case he does not develop sufficient cleverness with the Javelin nnd discys he will no doubt bo here to try conclusions with Bob Simpson, tho world's record holder both on grass and cinders for tho hurdles. The hurdle event this Fcason will bring together all the star hurdlers of the country with the exception of two on the Pacific slope. In addition to Simpson and Packer, there will be Ames, of Illinois; Schnleberg, of Purdue ; Burke, of Wiscon sin ; Farwell, of Yalo ; Thomson and Hobbf, of Dartmouth; Watt, of Cornell, and others. Last year Simpson made a new grass record of fifteen seconds for this event With such fierce competition as he will have here, Simpson will piobably clip at least one-fifth second off this .jnark. Pennsylva nia, holds this event on the grass merely to save time. COBB-HERZOG FEUD OVER; GIANT-TIGER SERIES ON Interleague Games to Continue Fol lowing Brawl Between Star Players DALLAS, Tex..

It Is rumored that both Cobb and Hetzog refused to fotget tho trouble, which started when the latter was spiked by Cobb at second baso.on Saturday, until they had fought it out In private. Whllo this Is denied by Managers Jen nings and McOraw, tho fact that both men bore evidences nf a battle when they ap peared at the ball park today makes the impression general that a ' private scrap was staged.
