MARCH SSt 1913 PART VI I 14 SUNDAY MORNING. Weird Dope. WHY PAPKE IS A REAL PUG. 'Shines in- France Because All Carpentier, every effort was made by the promoters to match the pair. A long and complicated controversy e-sied between the lighters, at the end Of which Papke seems to have come out on top in the estimation of the they lavished honors and belts on him to the neglect of Klaus.

Klaus has an alibi to the effect that he was not offered financial inducements for the match consistent with his own opinion his dignity and worth. The result of the negotiations was that Papke obtained several profitable matches with French boxers while Klaus remained idle. However, they now have been matched to meet at Paris on March 5. Although Papke is parading his easily won belts in an effort to establish claim that he is once more the formidable pugilist defeated Stanley Ketchel, he will meet with many who refuse to be convinced. Previous to sailing for France he showed in bouts with Jack Denning and Leo Houck that hew sa still the same slothful, fighter who disgusted the fans at the time he met Sailor Burke.

At the time Papke had just returned I 'Klaus Bid Xot Like Purses That Were Given.

With the chance that Klaus too, is a back.number, Eddie McGoorty still looms up as the leading middleweight McGoorty's victory over Gibbons was looked upon more in the light of a setback rather than a step forward toward the vacant throne. But the Oshkosh boxer has two good excuses for his disappointing showing. In the' first place he was weakened by reducing to 155 pounds. It is doubtful whether he can make 158 and retain his full strength. At three pounds below this notch it is no wonder that he was harmless.

Then too. Gibbons by his defensive tactics, made McGoorty also look bad. The man from Oshkosh has shown that he can fight when he is in good condition, arid he must still be considered the best of a poor lot. -No. 030 consists of three pieces and an extra tip; split bamboo, nickel ring guides."
