FIGHT WELLS NEXT
After This Bout He Plans to Take
on Gunboat Smith
Again
Special to The Telegraph
London, July 18.—Representatives;
M Dick Burge, Carpentler and Bom- I
bardier Wells have arranged for a
fight between Carpentier and Wells, j
In London, for the white heavyweight |
championship of the world, under |
Burge's management. All the details i
will be settled during the week.
The stakes for Thursday night'B \
match were paid over yesterday. Car- |
pentier receiving a check for $15,000, 1
while Buckley received SIO,OOO on be-j
half of Smith, who was not present.
Buckley took the check without de- |
mur. He mades no formal protest
against the decision, but wanted to
discuss the fairness of Eugene Corrl's
ruling. He displayed deep annoy- i
ance and refused to shake hands with 1
Corri.
The chairman of the gathering de- j
lined to permit any discussion, and
announced on behalf of Dick Burge, j
the promoter of Thursday's match,
that the latter was ready to put up
another purse of the same amount
for a return fight.
For the first time Deschamps then
revealed that he had promised to i
match Carpentler against Wells, if the |
Frenchman proved successful in yes- j
terday's match. As soon as the Car- i
pentier-Wells match was over, he add- i
cd, Carpentier was ready to meet!
Smith again, either in Europe or |
America, which ever provided the big- j
ger purse.
Will Fight Smith
While Buckley was endeavoring at j
yesterday's meeting to discuss Corrl's i
ruling, the chairman said:
"In this country when a decision is
given by a referee, it is accepted in a
sportsmanlike way."
"If 'Gunboat' Smith wants a return
match right away he is not going to
encounter the slightest difficulty," said I
Carpentier's manager later in the day. |
"It is Carpentier's wish, as it is my s
wish, that the white champion of the j
world should retain the championship, |
not by a mere fluke or disqualification, I
but by right of superiority in boxing." I
Both sides thus have put themselves j
on record as eagerly desiring an early I
return match, and the only bar to such !
a meeting appears to be the arrange- i
ment of a suitable purse.
Deschamps, commenting on what he ;
termed the disappointing end of j
Thursday's fight, said both he and !
Carpentier were dissatisfied with the |
result. He added:
"Carpentier personally wanted the
fight to proceed, but I thotight the
hlow he received from Smith while '
he was down would have proved detri- !
mental had the fight gone on. It I
knocked all the brilliancy out of the
French boy.

Get by With Another Victory
For Senators
Special to The Telegraph
Allentown, Pa., July 18.—The Teu
tons had their batting clothes on yes
terday and the mighty Chabek who
was moundsman for the Senators, fell.
Also the winning streak of the visi

break yesterday.
Ray Topham, of Germantown, did
the Hinging for the' Teutons, while
Chabek and O'Neil occupied the points
for Cockill's pennant-chasers. Cha
bek was pulled out of the box In the
fifth inning after six runs had been
chalked up against him. His succes
sor was batted almost as hard.
Jlarrisburg started out with a rush,
and tallied three runs before the side
was retired in the opening stanza.
Cruikshank tripled, Crist worked a
free pass, and Cockill made a clean
home run smash into deep right gar
den.
Allentown came back strong in the
same inning and took the lead. Cas
tle, Cannell, McGeehan, Boyle and
Mecherly hit safely in this round.
The home team clinched the game
in the fifth, when five more runs were
hammered across on singles by Cas
tle, Murray, Mecherly, a double by
Cannell and Topham's three-base
smash.
A triple by O'Neil doubles by Emer
son and Keyes and a single by Cruik
shank gave Harrisburg two runs in the
seventh. Castle, Mecherly and Cruik

safe drives each. Score:

weight champion pugilist, was to have
taken part in a bout here last night,

opinion of the commission, it would
not be safe to permit him to risk an
other fistic battle. Walcott was born
April 7, 1872, and thus is more than
4 2 years old. His last appearance In
ring was in Brockton, Mass., four

TENNIS BECOMING
THE WORLD GAME
Nearly All Countries Now Have
Sharks With the
Racket
Not merely personal but national
characteristics are reflected In tennis,
says the August Outing.
Americans and Australians reflect
the similar environment of newer
countries in that most of their tennis
representatives rave the ability to
become quickly accustomed to unex
pected developments on the courts.
The English, however, with their na
tive instinct for conducting matters
along conventional lines do not take
kindly to innovations.
Taking the average of the leading
players among the seven nations en
listed in Davis Cup competition, broad
lines of character division do Unmis
takably reveal themselves. Contrasts In
mental attitude which history has
erected between French, British, Ger
man and American types are outlined
in strong relief In the modern annals
of tennis. The ioll of leading French
exponents, almost without an excep
tion, consists of players who possess in
abundance those traits which are rec
ognized the world over as typically
Gallic.
Tennis is rapidly becoming the world
game. It is eminently suited to the
conditions which have been ordained
by modern civilization, capable of be
ing played in limited time, and with a
minimum of two players, It is en
rolling active followers by th« thou
sand in every quarter of the globe.
Although there is no place allotted
to it on the scoring sheets, tempera
ment plays a major part in tennis.
Far above the technique of the indi
vidual Is his ability to master a mental
attitude which puts the burden of
worry upon his opponent. Norman
E. Brookes, the great Australian crack,
has had a remarkably successful ca
reer on thre courts which is due to his
ability to read human nature almost as
much as to his remarkable technical
proficiency.
