Jl. tie anenuen unnami By JAMES S. CAROLAN Over (he beaten path went the aged Harry Pierce, beaten, battered and bleeding Harry's head glistened here ind theie. the bright bare spots shining brilliantly under the powerful arc lights 't was the bend alone that shone for his antiquated, though willing, piece of rusty flght'ng machinery. Benny Leon- rd, the world's recognized and respected lightweight king, did all the shining, punch shooting, battering and firing It was his first appearance of the Indoor season, and he played to the largest audience of the season at the Olympla last night. I Benny took a "heel" of a phance. And Ill's was some chance. Just when the king was about to send his antiquated and rocking foe on a long Journey Into that beautiful land where the birds chirp harmoniously and the stars sparkle brilliantly, a heel entered into the argu ment, made the champion more than caut'ous, affected bis footwork and com pelled him to "feel" Ills way about the ring. Then the Heel Slipped It all happened in the fifth round, and around tint heel of the left shoe we found the reason for Pierce's ability to linger for the regulation distance. ' Benny was using the ring freely when he started the fifth. Once he applied too much pressure to the heel of his left foot and the heel toie loose from its noorlngs. Benny tripped and stumbled until he found the reason, then slowed down and felt his way very, very cau tiously. Benny dlffued from the hike riders, In that he failed to bring along a new set of tires. He trlfd to send the of fending niece of footwear back into place, but it refused to remain fastened. All through the last round Benny gave an exhibition of toe dancing that would have done Justice to any stage artist. He was all oxer his man, but unable to get the proper pontr behind the punch. Pierce Was Pierced Pierce gave a game exhibition. He tasted a varied display of punches, hooks and wallops combined. His head was visited often with short rights, and his nose took so many lefts that it was knocked northwest before one round was, oer. Few of the ring sharps present gave the aired one a chance. Charley Heeb irenerouslv allowed him three round! Ir G. W. Wlttnialer conceded him four and as for former Governor Stuart, who was at the .ingside, be seemed to think that Plerc.5 was the limit. Pierce used the few hairs which adorned his headpiece to stop many of the punches. Doublless this style of de fense hastened the retreat of nature's head covering. The veteran was battered along for four fast roundB. His best effort was In the first, when he caught Benny on the cheekbone with a wild 'swing, which startled the king. Benny replied with some nice punches. In the fifth a left hook nailed Harry on his flattened nose and ripped It open. It was visited often In the remaining minutes and only a damaged heel, a blowout to Benny's left tire, forced the champion to run on low speed. Sammy Halm Finished Second Sammy Hahri, the demon operator and publicity seeker, had an entry In the semlwlnd-up. Sammy Schlft, discovered In Harrlsburg by the wandering Hahn, southpaWed his way to a win for TWO rounds! Thereafter Harry (Kid) Brown, the high school boy, came to the front and showed his class. Schlft fought himself out early. He proved to be a great two-rounder, but the distance was six. Hahn. however, saw nothing but Schlft. His protege failed to recognize him when he departed from the scene of action. It was painful for Hahn. Joe Mendell gave one of his best ex hibitions, and this time It was at the expense of Ilalph Swegert, of the navy. Frankle Ray went along smoothly for six, rounds. Yankee Schwarta had wa gered $70 of good stage money on Bobby, North and his money went south. Ilay .took all direction out of North.

But theso cars were not filled with cheering soldiers on their way to an embarkation camp or with rookies en route for training camps. Every one of those five cars was filled with wounded soldiers who had Just re turned from France, and every one of them was so seriously Wounded that, he could not leave the car, so the women who are doing such splendid work en tered the car, and then they got the first real shock and the grlmncss of the big war slapped them In the face. One of the first men they saw wall an cfflccr In a compartment with" both legs gone.

Germantown and South Philadelphia are kept on the waiting bench until the interschool ath le4ic question Is decided, the students' at Catholic High are working out daily at Cahill Field, Twenty-ninth and Clearfield streets. Practice was started a week' ago yes terday. About forty answered the call. While Frank Geer, the coach, Is out of the city, Captain Joe Worthington is lu charge. Yesterday Captain Worthington had the men practice falling on the ball, the ends running down under'punts nnd the backfield aspirants carrying the ball' Only n few of last season's squad have returned to school. The regulars are Worthington, Dougherty nnd Carton. The team,'s hopes were given quite a se veie setback yesterday when It became known that it was the intention of Mar tin Callahan and Bay Smith to en'r the training school at Niagara. Calla han was considered one of the best linesmen In scholastic ranks In this city, while Smith was a fast backfield man. From the present outlook Coach Geer will have a clear claim to the scholastic championship of this section. However, such a tutor as Frank Geer would hardly favor such a victory without conquest, and therefore, as do the majority of the Catholic High School students, hopes that varsity football will be permitted to continue in the public high schools. Manager Jim Thompson has arranged an attractive and difficult schedule. The season opens Friday, the 27th, with Badnor High School at Jtadnor.
