AT THE SAME WEIGHT BANT AM tttt p
. CHANGED HANDS-NOT AT 120 SCALE
Before Titleholder Defeats Gussie Lewis Phnl
lenge Is Made on Behalf of Form K ng
and AlsobyEddie O'Keef e '
By LOUIS H. JA1TE
IF Kivuu witiLiiv.Ain nopes to return
the. bantam bunting to Baltimore he will
hve to take dictation from Potey Herman,
bl conqueror, and agree to box at 118
pounds ringside. This Is the wclRht at
which Herman annexed the title and won
as he pleased from Gussie Lewis on his
' debut as champion In Philadelphia at the
Olympla 'aBt n'ftht'
, Dave Wartnlk, Williams's manager, trade
a special trip hei last night to have n 500
check, with the Kid's picture on It, Hashed
from the ringside and which ho was anxious
to put up as a forfeit for weight ond op.
1 nearance for a match with Herman. It
as specified that Williams desired the
(weight to bo 120 pound? rlngilde. If the
KI4 Insists on holding out for this nvolrdu
poll, the stuff Is .all off. Jerome rjurgaho,
Herman's manager, says so himself
Jerome Has the Floor
"Herman won the title at 118 pounds,"
ld Gargano, "and that Is the weight, not
an ounce more, at which tho championship
will change hands. If Williams wants his
oldjtltle back he can get the opportunity to
try for It but 118 pounds ringside will
irule. I've got $1000 Williams can have
si a side bet, Just as soon as he signs for
the match "
Eddie O'Keefe was another man with a
check. Sir Edward's piece of paper called
for f 250, and "Doctor" Kutch nnnounced
that fiddle would box Herman at 118
pounds, with the check to go as a forfeit for
'weight and appearance. Taking Mr. Uar
gapo, of New Orleans, at his word. It Is
evident that Herman's next assignment In
a local ring will be with O'Keefe
Some Cash Money
Philadelphia can have tho bantam crown,
brought here If what Charley Welrmuller
I aays Is a fact rather than a fib "I think
so much of Herman as a champion." said
Welrmuller today, "that I um ready to post
$1000 or $2000 not a check, but cash
money with you or any one else who will
give me a receipt, that Benny Kaufman can
. knock the championship out of Herman's
system."
Kaufman can knock out Herman In
twenty rounds, Is Wolrmullcr's opinion, and
the only way Herman can disprove this as
sertion, Welrmuller says, is for I'ctey to
.come through with a match. Charley sayn
ha has a perfectly good fountain pen and ho
ill ready to sign up Kaufman for a titular
tilt today However, If Herman feels India
poed, any time would do, declared Welr
muller, yet Benny would appreciate to be
allowed to escort the champion over a
lli-round Journey.
Ills Best Punch
All boxers have a best punch, nnd a left
hook Is that of Herman's. Petey was some
what tardy In getting started last night
against Lewis, and OubsIo popped several
Jabs and right crosses off the N. O. lad's
face before Herman really began to box.
Then he hooked over a Bhort left and Gus
went reeling backward. Another hook stag
gered Lewis and it was only tho ropes
that kept him In the ring.
Throughout the bout It was apparent the
short, semicircle, southpaw blow was Hcr-
' man's most effective wallop Pete also
Jabbed often, and Invariably he crossed
right-handers but whenever It seemed as If
w Lewjs was In bad shape a left hook usually
'''was the blow that shook up the Phlladel-
phlan. The second stanza was rather a
stormy session for young Mr. .Lewis, but ho
weathered the round despite a wholo gang
of hooks. Jabs, uppercuts and right crosses.
all of which bounced off his face.
Herman Can't Punch
That Herman does not possess a knock
cut wallop was one pnt brought out last
Bight. Another is the 1 ct that he Is easily
reached with a straight left. Pete, although
he rocked Lewis several times, connected
with many blows, but nono of them carried
sufficient power to knock Tussle off his
feet On the other point. t is found Her.
man often and with little tr- ble with Jabs.
' Herman Is an aggressU i boxer and a
greater part of tho contest he forced the
.milling At close quarters Pete slammed
away with both hands to tho body in a
steady tattoo with short, stiff punches.
.Near the end of tho bout these blows began
to wear on Gussie and i-evcral times he
turned his side to the attack.
Lewis tried hard to win on points, and
Herman endeavored his utmost to win by
a knockout Neither succeeded. Yet tho
bout was a fast one and pleased the fans,
although almost every one -had the same
question on their lips, "How did ho ever
go twenty rounds with Kid Williams?"
And It was on two occasions Pete traveled
that route with the former champion.
Another time they went ten.
A Cyclone Bantam
Joe Burman, a Windy City bantam and
real cyclone, distributed a fine trimming
to Frankle Clarke. It was the latter's first
defeat for a long while, and the only alibi
for Clarke can be his lack of confidence.
Frankle entered the ring believing that he
would be beaten, and for five rounds he
fought a half-hearted battle. His punches
did not carry their usual steam, and when
ever Burman landed a wallop Clarke would
hold on like a crab.
That confidence would have won for
Clarke was proved In tho last round, when
he outfought nnd outboxed Burman, but
Prankle's rally came too late The large
lead piled up by Burman allowed him to
leave a victor by a margin. Burman was
greeted with loud applause, while Clarke
was handed the old "ras."
Devore Makes Good
Willie Devore, a 124-pounder and one of
Porter Boot's several boxers here from
Cleveland, assumed the role of an under
atudy and pinch boxed for Young McGov
ern against Sammy Diamond. Diamond Is
a rugged battler, and he proved It Devoro
walloped Sammy with some sound slams,
Mil. although the latter allowed very few
to go by, he fought back hard all the time.
In fact, Diamond appeared tho stronger nt
the finish, despite the hard thumps ho
uttered.
A pair of gamecocks, Joe Dillon and Bat
tling Murray, their combined weight
amounting to a few pounds more than 200,
laiued an interesting performance. The
greasespots fought from bell to bell and
Murray was the winner at the finish, al
though he had to be on the Job continually.
Dillon showed flashes of Wlflle Jackson and
Johnny Dundee, but he was not strong
enough to go along at a rapid pace.
, Phil Ryan, formerly Johnny Murphy,
knocked out Jimmy Duffy In the second.
Two loving cup presentations were made
'"t night. The Twilight Social, of South
i Philadelphia, "gave Champion Herman -a
trophy Ba n Inli.n nt frlenrtshln and Presl-
5nt Brown freely handed out a couple of
"Men white carnations arouhd the rlng

CYNWYD GAINS ON
AND LEADS IN TRISTATE TENNIS
Harris, of Wilmington, Furnishes Surprise by
Unexpected Victory Over Cullom at Manheim.
Belfield Ties Tabor in Suburban
By PAUL
ASA result of P.itunlny's matches In the
t "A"
iIIIhIoii of the Trbtnto I.eafrue,
Cynwjil Knined another notch over German
town In tlio most Interesting competition
that this flourishing leaRUo haa ever known.
Tho fight for supremacy in the leiifrue has
been a thriller from tho stnrt, vhen Ger
inantown, by taking 8 of the 9 points from
Plymouth, hiie Cynwyd was dropping 2
points to Ilclfleld "D" team, led by one
point In the second series tho two leaders
wero drawn to play each other nnil part
of tho match was postponed because of
Inclement weather. Three points were
played on the original dntc and tho re
maining (5 points vcro pl.iyed laBt Thurs
day Tho final score of tho match was
G to S, with Oj nwyd on the winning end
of the score. This enabled It to pass
Germanlown and take the lead with a
margin of 2 points In the third wrles,
Cynwyd dropped 1 point to Wilmington, and
fifrmantnwn. by taking all 3 points from
lielflcld "II," closed up Cynwyd's margin
to X point. On Saturday last, Cynwyd
took all 9 points from Sprlnghaven, and
vhen Wilmington took one of the 9 points
from Oernmntown tho latter onco more
slipped back to tho 2 down mark.
Clubs May Lose Star Players
If both of these teams can keep their
present plaers Intact it should bo nip and
tuck beteen them right through to Sep
tember There Is, howeer, a rumor that
there are to be seeral deflections from both
contestants shortly Thcso rumors affect
Wallace Johnson, poctor i:ilason and T.
C. Leonards, of the Cynil team, and 1..
C WIster. V. T. Tlldeu and W. II. Connell,
of the ijcrmantown team. The loss of any
portion of these men 'ould of course
greatly weaken their rcspectt'e teams nnd,
if one team were to bo affected more than
tho other in this regard, It would naturally
ha'e considerable bearing In deciding the
winner of tho championship.
The feature of the match between Ger
mantown nnd Wilmington nt Manheim on
Saturday was the fine and unexpected vic
tory of T II. Harris over Samuel Cullom
This 'as In the nature of a complete sur
prise, as the Gormantown player ranks the
Wllmlngtonlan by a considerable margin
Harris possesses a ery effective cut stroke,
and it is particularly so on turf courts On
Saturday he had It working In fine shape
and ho 'on the first set before Cullom
could get going, the score being 6-2 The
next set ent to the Germantown repre.
se,ntative, but only after the closest sort
of a strugglo, 6-8. The decider was u
heartbreaking affair. After E all was
reached, both hud many chances to win
the match, but neither could put over the
winning punch until Harris took the lead
at 12-11, when, nfter a long game In which
both held the advantage point, Harris finally
scored It and took the match The Wil
mington team ere very much elated that
their captain was nble to score n point,
for they made the trip without ti ery deep
rooted expectation of winning a single point
from tho strong Manheim team.
Peter T Wright, the dean of Wilmington
tennis, played u surprisingly strong game
against Frank White, vlnnlng the first Bet
at 6-2, mainly as the result of skillful plac
ing Although tho second and third sets
ere 'on by the Germantown player nt
6-3 each, he vas forced to work eery mln
ute to do it
Irving Extends Hawk
The Springhaven-Cynwyd match was
featured by the fine showing made by
Lloyd Irving In extending Dr.-P. B. Hawk
to two 7-5 sets. Irving held a lead In both,
having been In front at 6-3 In the first tet,
The Cynwyd captain was forced to dis
play all the tonnls he knev to pull out
a winner. The Wilcox brothers also starred
for the Sprlnghaveji team In the first dou
bles, In which they rode roughshod over
Kllason and Leonards In the first set, taking
It at 6-2. The Cynwyd pair braced up con.
sldcrably after the loss of this set and,
-lsely recognizing the futility of lobbing
to the elder Wilcox, adopted fast driving,
passing strokes, vhlch enabled then to
emerge victorious, 2-6, 6-3, 6-2.
Only one match was played in Division
n of the TrUtate League, and this resulted
In a 7-2 win for the Overbrook GcJf Club
team over the Cymvyd B team. The sur
prising feature of this match was that Cyn
vyd won any of the 9 points, as the Over
brook team was considered sufficiently
strong to overwhelm the visitors, 9-0, A.
C. Hampson, vho was playing; his first
match for Cynwyd, was their only winner
