True, he took three separate and distinet trips, meetius the floor coming up. but did not linger verj long. Perhaps he might have taken one on the ehiu during thoe remaining twenty-nine seconds and decorated the mat until swept up by Johnny lturns. but Hilly Hoeop and Chairmen .lohn Smith, of the .lersoj boxing commission, hud the Mime Idea at the very same time and truce was declared. Wilde gets credit for h technical knockout. Murrn gets the tame, only with reverse Kugllsh. , Tho Hattlcr made it game showing, gave eierj thing he had, but it wasn't enough. For sewn rounds he was dangerous unci threatened to hang a knockout wallop on .Jimmy's vulnerable chin. thercb making himself solid with the Camdenites and others, lie slugged his way through those sessions and Wilde. ave for a short time In the sixth, seemed contented to box on the defensive But he had a method in this stjle of attack and exposed it In the Until frame Murray had taken a lowly lacing, stopping innumer able left jolts and right smashes with his face and hnfj . He thought lie would be able to weather the last round, but there he made bis mistake. The flyweight champion had other ideas on the subject and proed to be in the right. That eighth round was fast anil furious. , Murray started after Wilde with a rush, swiuging both arms at his head. .!inim, however, clinched, and when the boys were separated Murray had :t bad cut over the eye nud bloou streamed down the left side of his face. Wilde vldently butted him unintentionally, but that marked the beginning of the end. The Hauler tried to tight hard, but was unable to do any damage. He aimed n wild swing at his opponent's head and fell to the floor when ho r..issed. He seemed weak, but uoer let up. He tried it again, and Wilde act him with a stiff left hook to the jaw. Down went the Battler, but he was up at the count of two. A RIGHT to the jaic resulted in another knock down, but Murray teas up iniineilintelu. He leas in there to fiijht, not hang around the floor. After the thini knockdown Murray irm leelni'i against the ropes and Wilde irn preparing to land the finishing wallop. Before the blow started on its icay the battle was stopped. Thrills in Every Round IT WAS one of tho grandest scraps between little fellows that has been seen in these parts for nihuy a daj. There wore thrills and pl-nty of excltment in ever round, and for a time no one knew how tho buttle would end. In fact, it looked like curtains for Wilde in the er.v first round. The boys sparred for u few seconds and uddenly Murray whipped n icious left hook to tho jaw. Wilde saw it coming; but could not j;ot away in time. The blow landed on the chin and Jimmy dropped to the floor. Ho staggered to his feet immediately, fell into a clinch and stalled around until ho regained his bearings. It was a hard blow and had the little Englishman woozy until the end of the round. But Murray made a big mistake. Instead of forcing the fighting when his opponent was in distress, he took things easy, attempted to box at long runge and paved the way for his own defeat. Had he rushed the cham pion and taken advantage of that hard shim, he might have, bad an easier time of it.

In the second Wilde watched Murrn's left nud stalled nroiind, jabbing occasionnll) . but keeping nt long range. Murray, too. tried to box. but It was n futile nttempt. The Hauler is mi boxer. He is n two-liniidrd. swiuging tighter, and when he gets nwny from .that stufT he looks like the Athletics against Washington. Wilde's experi ence and ring generalship stood him in good stead and he gained strength ns the battle progressed. When the boll clanged, starting the third round. Murray rushed from his corner and started to slug. There Wilde showed his cleverness. He avoided the shower of punches bj ducking his head and emerged from the bombardment unscathed. Murray then landed a left jab which almost knocked Wilde to the floor, sending him reeling across the ring. Jimmy enme back, however, witli n right to the jaw and the boys then' stood toe to toe and slugged. 1'iich was staggered and Wilde, in an effort to get out of a clinch, fell. Br, THIS time ihr hntltr iieront the rirer. the crowd icanteil TS I IK fourth was that sock in chances. He was able to bunko Murray into doing some shadow boxing and Murray csil. won second money. Hoth boys missed hefty wallops, but were not annoyed. Xenr the end the Hauler started to slug, but the bell halted the rally. After this ,liintn started to operate His defense was superb aud his punches were accurate ,011(1 hard. He would lead with his left nud. when Murruy was looking for more of the same, a right lead would score n bulls'eje. Contrary to our ery best rules. Jimmy led with either hand nnd got nwa with it. Murray floundered helplessly around the ring, missing enough windmill swings to knock out a dozen flyweights, but causing nothing but n gentle breeze. It wns then that the spectators and Harry Lata, who was witnessing his first brawl, realized Murray hail as much chance of winning the fight us a sailor on 11 ferrjbont has of seeing the wide world. The little Italian wns stymied, or something like thnt. Wilde worked around him like an expert cooper around a barrel, and created as much damage without retaliation. The long left and right constantly were in his face and the Mows came from all directions. In tho sixth Murray took everything handed out by the invader and absorbed enough punishment to bo knocked out a dozen times. He seemed helpless, and five stilt rights, flush on the chin, had him reeling around the ring. Everybody expected h knockout, but the Battler managed to stick around and the hell hud a welcome sound for him. Vilde evidently took too much exorcise in the sixth, for he took things easy in the sewnth. Again ho 'showed his marwlous defense, avoiding Murraj'- blows with little diflicultj. The Battler gained courage near the end. but was unable to do anything. Ho wns all in, and in the eighth proved it. XTTILDF. is a nrent little hotcr. He in? been here "V four months, met all of the best bantams, stepped out of his class and tens victorious in seven out of ciqht bout.s. Young Sharkey gained the pop ular decision in the first fight limmy had in .Imcr ica, but it is duiibtful if he could do it again. Wilde now knows .luirrirmi methods and is more than a match for the little fellows on this side, tie has a wonderful defense, ean hit and. best of all, he can take a wallop. Thoic attributes make a champion. copyright. SPORTS AMONG AMATEURS KAYWOOD C.

I There was not n mark on the little Englishman's face no evidence what ever thereon to prove that he had been 1 in a fast tight, excepting that his hair was ruflled and a thin trickle of blood came from between U lips.

Far away and long ago, Somciehcre in a distant year, One could have hit dairy flow ( From a keg of seine or beer; Somewhere in the (age now dimmed Dy the new styles of the ring, Fighters who tore badly trimmed Had no alibis to spring. Far ateay and long ago, In a gray and vanished time, When the price of rents teas loxo And a beefsteak cost a dime, After rugged rounds of strife Fighters uho had toon the croicn Did not enter circus life In the role of clown, Tho Crowd and the Champion ""WHY," writes Harry Vardon, ' ' "should th crowd always be pull ing against the champion, desiring his defeat?" The great English golfer is wrong. The crowd doesn't take any such habit ual stand. When John L. Sullivan was beaten the country went Into mourning. Who, outside of Corbctt himself nnd his few backers, wanted to tec the Old Gladiator conquered? The crowd nt large wanted to see both Johnson and Willard beaten because neither was popular. But few were pulling for the contenders against Bob Fltzslmmons and Terry McGovcrn when Jeffries and Young Corbctt battered them down. Only a few nights ago we watched a tremendous crowd rise repeatedly to Its collective hind legs nnd lift the roof for Joe Stcchcr In his match with Stranglor Lewis. The majority of that crowd didn't want to see Stccher, the cham pion, beaten. When McLoughlin was tennis cham pion he had the spectators with him al most to the ultimate soul. They were for the Comet all nineteen ways. Ills defeat was taken ns a matter of per sonal sorrow. L Perm Captain Recovering Rapidly From Injury to Shin. Latham to R"un Today With the announcement that Marvin Oustafson. captain of the Penn teum, would run on tho two-mile relay team of the red nnd blue, and that Tutham. the Cambridge half-inllcr. would tie able to compete in the international two-mile event, new interest was added to the annual relay carnival. Oustafoon Buffered un injury to hjo right shin bone two weeks ago and wan eiven un for tho whole of the out door season. Expert massaging on the part of Billy Morris, Penn trainer, combined with other treatment, brought tho injured member around so rapidly that yesterday to the surprise of the big crowd of students in Franklin Held, Gustafson, with the aid of a silk band age, was able to run a good half mile around the track. It was whispered around the track sanctum yesterday that Oustafson had n secret tryout ou Tuesday uight and showed exceptional form for a man on the injured list fot two weeks. Along with the announcement thai Oustafson would run came the list of entries of the red nnd blue for tho relay carnival. Penn Is entered in six relay rnces and thirteen of tho othet events. As was expected. Coach I.nwbon Itobertson selected Karl Eby. Eddie Shields and Larry Brown in addition to Oustafson to meet the English team and the dozen or more other colleges entered In tho feature event. With this quartet in shape and with the track in fast condition, Penn followers look for n record In the two-mile event nnd tnej do not mind boasting that it will be Oustafson and his mates who will tnke a fall out of the old mark. Tho Penn one-milo team will con tain the speediest quarter rollers In the college. Eby nnd OiiHtafson are ex---ted to hard tho baton In this event. Tho other two members of this team are Bob Maxnm nnd Prod Davis. All fotir are capable of doing around fifty sec onds for the miarter nnd liuvc nn even chnnce of lauding the title. Ebv, Shields.

Tho most popular Included, or still Include, John h, Sullivan and Terrv MeOovern among the boxers; Kn'. Kelly nnd Hans AVagncr among the bnll players; Francis Oulmet nnd Walter Ilagen among the golfers; McLoughlin lending the tennis players. In their respective pnstlmes, Sullivan nnd McLoughlin, a Bostonlan and n Cnllfornlan, stand supreme. They were the two most idolized of all the cham pionship enrovanscries which means their defeats were taken more to heart by tho multitude. " Cobb and Others TY COBB, ns the champion bntsmnn of all time, Is held in admiration rather than In affection. He has worked his way so far beyond all rivalry nt bat that even many 'who are not inclined to cheer his personality must yield him his due as a star. There are countless fnns who would ime.to see ueorge nigier or Kriddle Col lins or Trls Speaker or Babe Ittith sup plant Cobb, but he also has his sup porters, who are pulling for him to add another year of triumph to his remark able collection, Ruth Is sure to be a popular type. When he had tho good nature or the good judgment to accept the brown derby demonstration with n grin, he won the Immediate favor of tho crowd. Babe has the name, the wallop nnd the personality thnt make up n popular mixture. The Burns Type THE HE arc less vivid personalities hooked to rare ability thnt also liars larger fallowings than certain I ml ion -tlons might show. George Burns, of the Giants, belongs to this class. If Burns hail only been a tempernmentnl cuss his fame .would have been doubled. As It is he has merely played great basebnll nnd ducked the spotlight nt every chance. . Yet there. are thousands of fnns who would rather watch Burns play tlmu many more talked -of stars. Many things are needed to catch the fancy of the crowd, but always the one grent factor Is outstanding ability along certain lines. It is around this feature that grentness is built. Temperament alone never put the matter over. and Shields nnd Gustnffon on two, while (ins is n substitute on another. Johnny Bartels will be a busy man during the two days. He will compete in the pentathlon, which he has nn even chance of winning, since Le (ien tlre. of Georgetown, broke his leg. In addition. Bnrtels is entered iu the ,"ll pound shot, tho javelin throw and the discus throw. Aside from that, he will have little to do during the two dajs.
