Tumping Wop Outslugs the Baltimore Slugger in Eight
, Round Fuss at Shibe Park and Wins by Several
Miles Jimmy Hanlon Is Another Joe Grim
By KOIlEItT W. MAXWELL
SporU Rdltor Evening Tubllo InUrr
FlOU some reason or other the wind-up became misplaced at the boxing show
at Shlbe Park last night and the feature event was put on ahead of time.
According to the advance notices Louie Mollis did the.' proper thing in saving
Wllllo Jackson and Jimmy Hanlon until the nightcap, but after It was all over
Johnny Dundee and bis receiving- partner, George Chancy, deserved the most
prominent place on the bill.
John and Ocorge performed before a pocked house at the ball yard. There
vm more customers than have appeared for n long time, but the reason prob-
" ably was because It was late In the evening and there nas no chance to seo
a ball game. Twilight boxing is more popular than daylight baseball In these
parts.
A crowd estimated at 12,000 gathered around the home plate to see somo
aspiring pugilist get knocked over the right-field wall or something like that.
They draped themselves in the stands and pavilions and n few real fans occu
pied the bleachers, where It was easy to see what was going on with the aid
of a telescope. Everybody prominent in the sports world was there nnd a
pleasant evening was spent.
Several bouts were put on, but nono could compare with the slam -bang
act of Dundee nnd Chancy. From start to finish It was scniatioiml and hlirlily
exciting. The customers enjoyed It Immensely because the boys socked each
other In a most beautiful manner and nobody but the boxers got hurt. All
the customers had to do wns strain their voices.
Dundee won by as large n score as the other guys run up In ball games
with the Athletics or the Phils. He had the famous knockout artist from
Baltimore looking sad aud foolish and converted him Into n contortionist before
the eighth round was over. Chaney tied himself In knots nnd nt times It would
havo taken Houdlni to get him loose. He tried hard, no one enn deny that,
but it got him nothing. He did some excellent blocking with his face nud
was very adept In hitting Dundee's glove with his chin.
Knockout George brought his knockout wallop with him and brought it
back again. It was as valuablo as last month's receipt for the rent.
GEORGE was oil right, a great fighter and all that, but last night
, hi principal asset reminded one of a one-legged hobo's wash. On
sock. And that was missing,
Dundee Used the Hit and Run
DUNDEE never was better nnd pulled some stuff that made him famous
, jcars ago. His jumping jab, the ilnreback from the ropes, the head bob-
1 blng up and down and the clever footwork, all were present In large numbers.
"" He allowed Chancy to chate him all over the ring, but the chase meant nothing.
All George walked Into were left and right jabs to the face and n lot of
wallops to various portions of the body. Johnny traveled at least forty miles
; backward and never missed a step. He could have traveled forty more miles
and still be strong.
' When the first net started, the coatless throng In the standB saw that
'' Johnny was going to use the hit and run throughout the battle. He started
f to hit, run away, hit and escape again. He had Chaney looking ludicrous,
which is slang for fucetlous. Dundee just socked and socked the Baltlmorcan
J 'and It looked as if he were desperate and actually trying to scoro a knockout.
He was landing CO wallops to Chaney s one.
Chancy hnd that knockout slam In his left mauler and never failed to use
it. The only thing that interfered with Its effectiveness was that Dundee
never was there when it arrived. George wasted enough blows to knock out
everybody in the ball park. While he was Indulging In this wanton extrava
gance, Johnny was jabbing him In the face with lefts and sending in hard
rights to the neck and head. Before the second round was over Chaney woro
I a map like the setting sun nnd imagined he was wading through a blizzard
J of boxing gloves. Every time he turned he ran into a fresh flock.
Dundee iumned and lobbed, rolled off tho rnnes. hold nut Ills i.iw nnrl
(Tinned derishely at his opponent, getting what Is commonly known as his
animal. The more furious George became, the better Johnny like it end the
Baltlmorcan certainly was sore. He could do nothing and in the first three
, rounds didn t land an effective sock.
'j, In the fourth, however, it was different. Chaney started out with a right
J to the body and followed with a left to the head. Both were hard punches
I and Johnny was getting wooiy. Beforo he could recover, Chaney landed three
left hooks, but they were a trifle high nnd did no great damage. Had ono
of those hnymakcrs landed flush on the chin, Dundee would have taken It on
Ih'e hip and listened to the cookoos.
After that round, Chancy never had a chance. He kept on trying to
connect with his left, but there was nothing to connect with. The Scotch
Wop danced In and out, bounced on and off the ropes nnd kept both gloves
In George's face. He won by seven miles.
T W'ABX'T Chaney's night and he was outolassed. His otcfcicnrd
hut sincere efforts at boxing brought to mind a picture of a guv
i icho got rich so quick that he always spit on his hands beforo swing
ing a golf stick.
Brown Almost Won Bout by Forfeit
THERE wns a alight mix-up in ono of the early bouts and nobody knew
what it was all about. Harry Kid Brown was booked to meet Franklo
Bice, but It appears that Rice did not care to meet him In any other than a
octal way. In other words, Harry was consloarod entirely too smart and too
" rough. A substitute was provided, but Brown wouldn't leave the ring. Ho
bad wasted the evening, spent two car tickets and insisted that ho be allowed
to get the money to reimburse him.
A lengthy squabble resulted and the three gladiutors stepped into tho
ring. It looked for a time as If Brown was about to win the bout on a
forfeit, but Louie Mallls, the boy promoter, didn't hove his rule book nnd
couldn't determine the score. Finally, the substitute was swept out and
presented with legal tender and Brown went to It.
, Brown won the decision by a slender mnrgln, but he had his hands full.
Bice is a kid eighteen years of age and has all tho earmarks of a comer. He
has a great dcfene, a wicked left and knows how to use it.
Another bout was between Al Wagner nnd Danny Frush. It was tho
most polite thing you over saw and at the end Danny deserved all of the
honors hanging around loose. Al was handlcnpped with a bad right hand.
After wntching him, tho customers believed that both maulers were on the
blink. He did a Chaney for eight rounds, finishing with a perfect fielding
average. He didn't let one punch sail past him.
Jimmy Sullivan and Joe Jackson performed in the curtain raiser and
at the end "both were on their feet, both wero tired and both deserved the
verdict. Taking all of those things Into consideration, tho best thing is to
call It a draw.
THEY can fight it all over again some morning if they don't like
it.
Jimmy Hanlon Does a Joe Grim
JIMMY HANLON from Denver mingled with Willie Jackson In the last act
and finished a terrible second. Jimmy was billed as a second Battling
Nelson, but we have one better than that. He Is another Joe Grim and
takes It without a whimper.
Jimmy Isn't clever and his knowledge of boxing could be painted on
a cigarette paper. All he can do Is step around, allow himself to be socked
on the whiskers, smile and come back for more. Jackson hit him with
everything last night and never even dented his countenance.
TTackson can hit. He has a hefty wallop In his right, nnd when he shoots
it over, something usually drops. Once he knocked out Johnny Dundee nnd
on another occasion1 had Lew Tendler nlmo6t on the other end of a round
trip. He socks as hard if not harder than any other lightweight and last
night his punches went floole. In the first ronnd he stood back and just
punched at Hanlon's face and it was more of the same in the second.
When the session wns over, Willie was weary all punched out. Ho
looked several tlnles to see what wa holding Jimmy up and then sadly shook
hi", head. He was doing his best to break Hanlon's jaw or bust his nose or
knock him cookoo, but his earnest efforts went for naught. Jimmy didn't
oblige with the high dive.
Hanlon fought back, but all he hnd was a left swing and most of the
time it swished harmlessly by. Several times he connected, but tho blows
caused no annovance
Jn the eighth, Jackson landed one on the chin and Hanlon was stag
gered. This caused cheers because the spectators then knew that Willie was
trying.
yl-VJ, as George Young is saying this week, that's all there irts
there wasn't any more,

GIANTS HUMBLE PIRATES
Former Penn Stars Make
Debuts at Polo Grounds
Two former Penn baseball stars
made professional debuts at the Polo
Grounds yestcrdny afternoon. They
were Howard Berry, who broke in
as a Giant, and Flrmnn Warwick,
catcher, of the Pittsburgh Pirates.
Berry ran for Bancroft In the
eighth, after Bnnnle hnd made his
third hit. and In the ninth went to
second base, whllo Itawllngs moved
over to short. Berry had one chance
and accepted it well.
Tho hopes of local fnndom that Bryan
Slim Harris, Connie Mack's pitching
ace, would give them a record of con
secutive victories that would entitle
them to talk about the twirlcr of their
day who could outdo Horry Krause in
the palmy days of the Mnckmen has
been rudely shattered. The Browns
of St Louis iibunlly weak, but the
brenkers of many a record held by
twlrlers, did the trick again yestcrdny.
For seven innings the slim person
went along onlllng with tho slight
breezo. Two hits had been made off his
delivery nnd the stago seemed set for his
eighth or ninth consecutive victory, ac
cording to tho mix-up among the sta
tisticians. Then came the deluge or the
break or whatever it was, nnd blooie
went the hopes of the rabid ones. Har
ris was pelted from the mound just as
though ho was any ordinary hurler and
not a person seeking to hnve his name
placed In the Athletic hall of fame.
Chick Galloway fumbled ono nt ahort
and tho flood waters were on. Mr.
Hnrrls took his glove to the bench
and Mr. David Keefo mounted tho
peak. The damage hnd been done nnd
the struggle was lost. It was tho fourth
straight defeat for the Mackmcn, tielng
tneir longest losing streak since leaving
these ports for the swing nronnd tho
circuit.
Wasted Opportunity
Opportunity after opportunity pre
sented itself to the A.'s, but they were
uncnunl to tho occasions. Eleven hits
in nil were made by Cy Perkins nnd
his pals to five for the Mound City
team, hut our hits were not made nt
the right time, and hence tho reverse.
A oacrlflce bunt on one occasion would
have put us In the wny of two runs,
but It wns locking Thnt came In tho
ninth, after Perkins and Dugan had
singled. Galloway tried his sacrifice,
but it wnsn't good enough, nnd Myntt.
running for Perk, was cnught nt third.
Brazil!, batting for Keefo, dumped n
single into the outfield nnd the sacks
wero loaded. Whltcy Witt had three
and none, but Shocker shot across two
strikes nnd Whltcy was In the holo.
Ho tapped the next one weakly to
Shocker nnd Dugan was out at the
plate. Griffin fell easily and the rally
wns over.
While tho Athletics wero losing tho
White Sox were forging further ahead
In sixth plnce and, of course, the
Browns were getting distnnco In
seventh. The Sot, playing grent base
ball, wnlloped the Red Sox twice, Kerr
and nodge turning the trick. Tho
Chicngoans hit the boll savagely, secur
ing twenty-nine snfeties in the two
contests. Amos Stnink. of Llnncrch,
Pn.. wnn the shining light with tho
stick. Ho phot out two singles out of
five trips in the opener and thrco singles
and a homer out of four steps to the
platter In the second.
Ruth Millies Another
While Cleveland wns having n battle
roynl to defeat Washington by a one
run margin, tha Ynnkees wore lacing
Emhke and Cole, of the Tigers, with
considerable venom. Bambino Ruth to
show that he has not lost any of his
hitting powers, slugged one of Cole's
choicest to the ."500-foot mnrk, his
longest homer this season and inciden
tally his thirty-sixth of the season.

the Gibson Pirates in New York,
scoring twelve runs off Morrison
nnd Glozner, the two rookies, who hove
hod much to do with the present stand
ing of the Pirates. The win of the
Gnthnmltes iignln places them two
gomes behind the leaders.
Fourth Inning Attacks
One of the features of piny
in the National wns the fact that
three teams made the fourth Inning
their centT of attack. The Boston
Braves aud the Ginnts each bcored eight
runs in that inning while tho Reds
scored ono lass in tho second game with
tho Phillies.
The story out at Broad and Hunt
ingdon streets wns tho same. The Reds
won both ends of tho twin bill by iden
tical scores. Errors on the part of his
mates, with opportune hitting, spoiled
Jim Ring's chnnccs for a victory In the
first, while weuk pitching by Lefty
Boumgnrtner was responsible for the
defeat in the second.
About the most promising thing ont
of tho two reverses wns the catching
nnd hitting of Jnck Peters, formerly of
Birmingham. Ho .caught the second
game and pelted out a homer, his second
in two playing days, and a single,
Petor Donohue, a right hnnder, sent to
Pat Mornn by the Christlnn Brothers
T'nlverslty of Texas, showed real class
after relieving Rube Mnrquord in the
first game lie held the slugging Phils
to four hits in eight and two-thirds
innings a clever exhibtlon for n
wningster.
The Brnves' victory over tho
Cards kept them right up in the run
ning. Thov are now six games back of
first and four from second. If they
continue their spurt when they meot
tho Pirates, starting tomorrow, the
next two weeks will see the Braves
bnttling it out tooth nnd nnll with tho
Pirntes nnd Giants.

NEW PLA YERS HELP
NORTH PHILLIES WIN
Homers by Kelly and Young
Help Reifsynder's Aggre
gation Defeat Dobson
Team by Score of 9 to 7
SIGN VICTOR KEENE
rpHE North Thlllies now rank with
-L nnv team in tills cltv or State,"
was tho remark of Manager Hcifsny
der before the game Inst evening at
Fourth nnd Wingohocking streets with
tho J. & J. Dobson. "We have two
more newcomers in the ranks tonight
in "Pep" Young, of S.vartlimoro, and
Alio Cornog, of Sharplcss. Of course,
Kelly, the young Industrial Lcaguo out
fielder, has nioilo good and now we arc
all set.
"But, the best news has not yet been
told, and that is that we hnve just
signed Victor Kcene. the stnr local
hurler who has won twenty-four games
this season, nnd he will pitch tomorrow
night when we play Bridesburg on the
latter's grounds."
And Judging by the ball the North
Phils played against Dobon, Manager
Relfsnydcr is right, for they defeated
Dobson 0 to 7, nnd ono of the new
comers. Young, hit u homer In the
sixth which scored a run ahead of
him, whilo Ktlly sent four runs across
the plato with his four-bagger two
lunings previously.
Ray Stelnndor had Dobson's number
until the ninth when tho Falls teajn
flared up. With one run In and two on
"Zlddie" Trnutweln came through with
n hit thnt made it three runs and then
Bob Dnvld stopped all further dam
age. Big Mike Hoffman wrns on the hill
for Dobson, nnd ho did not strike a man
out nnd was hit when the hits counted.
Dolison at Nativity
Dobson will travel over to Natlvltv's
grounds this evening nnd meet Phil
Hnggerty's nggregation. The Rich
mond team has one victory over the
enrpot makers, scored on the Falls
grounds, and they nro anxious to oven
the score,
ilanager uainoun win use "J.eity"
Schofield nnd Phil Hnggcrty will in
nil probability use Marty Devine Scho
field until recently was wtth Nativity.
The North Phillies jilav Bridesburg
on tho lnttor's field at Richmond and
on tno inner h
I Orthodox streets
.Vfter malting n won-
ent
the
ned
n few gomes. The return of Pitcher
Glock. Catcher Fish nnd Worry Butts
helped matters, and Caskey nnnounces
nnother new acquisition.
The newcomer Is Freddie Mcisler.
who covered third base for Nativity
for three years. Freddie will be found
in n Bridesburg line-up for tho first
tune this evening and he should
strengthen the Infield, with Warry
Butts moving to his regnlar position
In tho outfield.
Germantown at Shanahan
Walter Mackln, pitching ace of
Shnnnhnn, Is nil set for tho assignment
to twirl against Dave Bennls' Germnn
town team. It is the first npnearanco
of tho suburbanites in West Philadel
phia. Shanahan was practically out of
the field of sports for several years, but
tho ball team has placed the club in tho
forefront once more and there Is likely
to be nn awakening in all branches of
sport in the near future, due to tho ef
forts of Jim Bonner.
Tom Turnor has booked tho hardest
game yet scheduled for Smith -Furbush
ut Second street and Erie avenue, when
tho Brooklyn Rojal Giants nppeur nt
tho uptown diamond And Hubbard,
the star pitcher of the colored club,
will be on the pitching peak to oppose
the former Manufacturers' League
champs.
At Fourth nnd Berks streets. Stet
son and Fleisher Yarn renew activities.
Those friendly rivals came together last
week at Twenty-sixth nnd Heed streets,
nnd a homer by Eddie Gerncr in tho
twelfth won for Flelshcr, 7 to -1.
Gcrner will likely pitch again, with
Eddie Barless being .Manager Johann's
selection.

Across some well known signt

Of seeing endless smashes

While every bloke' is hitting

Now, under Fred Mitchell's guiding

a much greater distance than any one
figured they could come this season.
As a steady turn they havo looked
