    DUNDEE MAY GIVETENDLER GREAT SURPRISE HERE;UNIONTOWN MOTOR RACES SATURDAY
Dundee, Never Knocked Down
or Out, May Give Lew Tendler
the Surprise of His Life
As time draws near, interest in
creases in the big boxing show ar
ranged by Joe Barrett, for next Sat
urday night at the Chestnut Street
Auditorium. In all, there will be
two ten-round bouts and two six
round bouts, making thirty-two
rounos of the classiest boxing ever
pulled in this city. Interest, of
course, is mostly in the feature event
between Lew Tendler, the sen
sational lightweight of Philadelphia,
and "Allentown" Dundee. While a
many are looking for the
Quaker to beat Dundee, It must be
remembered that Dundee has yet to
taste the pangs of defeat, and he has
met the best of them. Several weeks
ago he gave Joe Phillips, the tough
Quaker, a great lacing in this city.
Phillips has been selected by Harry
Edwards, of the Olympta A. C., in
Philadelphia, to oppose Champion
"Benny" Leonard, on May 16, before
his club.
No doubt Tendler will be the favor
ite when the men are oft, but when
it is taken into consideration that
Dundee will have about six pounds
the best of it, and has never been
knocked down or defeated, those fav
oring Tendler may have their minds
jolted. before the bout is over. Any
way, "Charlie" Etttnger, manager of
Dundee, is arranging a tour for his
man through Pennsylvania, and says
he will stop off in Philadelphia. Tend
lePs home .and meet all comers,
which shows the Allentown manager
has no fear of Tendler in the coming
match. . , , .
Interest in the semiwindup of ten
rounds, between "Johnny" Herman,
Dundee's boxing partner, and "Eddie'
Loeckner. of Lancaster, has increased
since George Silar, Barrett's light
weight, has arrived from overseas
■with the Twenty-eighth Division.
Silar served in the One Hundred and
Twelfth, with our own boys, and will

be at the ringside to challenge the
winner of this bout in person.
Owing to a great many requests
from returned soldiers, Barrett has
changed the name of his club from
the Olympia to the Twenty-eighth Di
vision A. C. The two six-round
bouts will be featured with
"young" Mahoney, the clever Balti
morean, and "Billy" Gannon, one of
Quakertown's stars, and knowing
that Gannon is the best man he has
yet h een called upon to face, the lit
tle Kaltimorean has put in some hard
training with George Chaney, the Bal
timorean knockout king, who is now
matched to meet Tendler on June 4,
at Shibe Park, in Philadelphia. Pro
viding Dundee does not upset all cal
culations by beating Tendler next
Saturday, Ralph Leedy and "Billy" j
Morton, tw-o local youngsters, can be
depended upon to furnish a great
slugging match in the opening bout.
There wil be no war tax charged in
addition to the regular price of tbe
tickets, which are on sale at Sher.k
and Tittle's Sporting Goods Store, in
Market street, and at Eairlamb's, tn
Steelton.
Barrett announced last evening
that he had mailed complimentary
ticket? to a large number of promi
nent city, county and State officials.
He included Lieutenant Governor
Beidleman, the County Commission
ers. City Commissioners, Mayor
Keister and the local police officials.
Joe says that he wants to give these
men a good opportunity to see what
a real boxing show is.
Alex and His Wife Lose
SB,OOO Worth of Jewelry
Pittsburgh, Pa., May 13. —Grover
Alexander nd his wife are SB,OOO
poorer by their trip here from Chi
cago Sunday night, they having been
mulcted by a sneak thief to that
amount. They left Chicago with the
Chicago team at 7.30 o'clock Sunday
night and before retiring Mrs. Alex
ander took two diamond rings and a
diamond bar pin from her dress and
put them in the pocket of a blue
traveling dress while she was in the
woman's dressing room. Coming
down the aisle of the car she met
her husband, who suggested that she
give him tho jewels for safekeeping,
and when she searched in her pock
ets for them they were gone.
At Fort Wayne the railroad detec
tives were notified and a thorough
search was made, but up to the time
they arrived in this city the pitcher
and his wife had heard nothing
about the missing jewels.
At * the Hotel Schenley yesterday,
Grover Alexander said they were
wedding presents, and one of the
rings was a live-karat white soli
taire. The other was a dinner ring
set with small diamonds, while the
bar pin was set with a seven-karat
diamond. Up to the time the team
left for New York last night noth
ing had been heard from the detec
tives.

Last Night—Rosewood vs. Galahad;

Just when the players were ready to
set into action last evening in the Al
lison Hill Baseball League In a con
test between Rosewood and Galahad,
a spring shower threw the damper on
things and Umpire Hunk postponed the
game until Friday evening, May 23.
To-night St. Mary's and Heading will
battle. The grounds in the vicinity of
second base were too wet to .play a
good brand of ball even though the
shower had not started.
"Nick" Zerance, manager of St.
Mary's has announced the signing of
Joe Flnnen and Frank Etter to the ros
ter of that club. "Joe" Ss a pitcher
who has a record longer than the
Hoclcville bridge. He will strengthen
, the team considerably.
Etter has played ball in thjs vicinity
i for years, starring in the outfield of
the old Central Pennsylvania League.
He is a valuable player for any team
to have about.
Plans are well under way for a
grandstand dhat will accommodate 1,100
fans at the grounds. A well-known
Hill fan who has fostered many a Hill
project is leading his efforts to perfect
plans that will make the proposition a
success.
Fans hare been asking why "Dick"
Xeblnger will not officiate this week.
The arbiter works night turn every
other week, and will be available only
at those times when his work does not
interfere.
AVith clear weather and a little
warmer air another large crowd is ex

between St. Mary's and Reading.
Protest to Baker
on Punishment to
Military Prisoners
Philadelphia, May 13.—The Hick
site branch of the Society of Friends
has protested to Secretary of War
Baker against alleged excessive pun
ishments and general treatment of
military prisoners, according to the
report of the committee on philan
thropic labor at the yearly meeting
here yesterday.
Epistles were read from the year
ly meetings of Friends in London,
Canada and Australia, disapproving
the war and recommending the
Friends of America for the stand
they took.
Concerning woman suffrage an
other report said:
"At present it appears to he only
a matter of time and method when
suffrage will be granted. The work
of delay is due to the slow process
of American machinery in register
ing the popular will."

Tendler Made Punching
Bag of Cal. Delaney
Lew Tendler. Philadelphia's great lit
tle unbeatable, defeated Cal Delaney,
of Cleveland, last night In a battle at
the Olympic which went the limit of six
rounds. Delaney started to rough it,
and succeeded in holding Lew even in
the opening inning.
Tendler quickly sized up the situa
tion, and in the second round played I
Delaney at his own game. He won
every one of the remaining five rounds
by outslugging and outboxing Cal.
It would not be possible to call the
affair a fight, as it was a very one
sided match in which the visitor was 1
the receiver general in every round.
Delaney was evidently In the ring to
stay as long as he could and collect the
easy money which the exhibition
brought him. He was holding before
the end of the first round and a good
part of the time during the other
rounds he was doing the same thing.
Once in awhile he would let go long
enough to make a wild swing or two
at Tendler's head or body, few of
which blows landed. Tendler hit him
hundreds of time, but the punches had
little effect, as for the most part they
were landed on Delaney's fat jowls or
the rolls of fat that covered his mid
section, and they only sank In a short
distance. It was about the easiest
money Delaney has ever earned, for
when the bout was over he did not
show a mark, even his nose and mouth
were not bleeding and he did not ap
pear to have perspired the least bit.
After the bout Jimmy Dunn explained
Delaney's poor showing by stating that
Cal had hurt his right hand in his re
cent bout here with Joe Phillips.
In the semi-windup Joe Tiplitz won
I a rough encounter from Packey Horn
mey, the sturdy little Italian light
weight from New York, who took all
that Tiplitz could give him and came
back for more every time. While he
was beaten, Packey earned the plaudits
of the big crowd by making Tiplitz
extend himself in every round, and
when the bout ended Joe was about
as tired as Hommey.
In the other bouts Joe Jackson had a
/shade on Mike Connors; Young Clem
enceau stopped Frankle Cline in four
rounds, and Kid Wagner beat Billy
Devine, the last-named bout going, the
