Humphries, however, had received an Instructions. In his introductions or Rosenberg and Graham he studiously refrained frotn mentioning the former as champion of the li-round scuffle as a championship. When ha collected the slips of Kef-aree Magnolia and Judges Charles F.

He merely raised Itosenbei g's right arm and led him out to the centre of the ring. 1 here was no dobbt that Rosenberg Wort the flsht but nevertheless the bantum title remains In escrow as far as the New Yoric Boxing; Com-mission Is concerned.

IRA FLAGSTEAD SETS RECORD Red Sox Outfielder Starts Trio of Double Killings 1 OSTON, Jan. 7. Despite th lively ball, a strong, accurate throwing arm Is much to be prized by a big league out fielder.

ljtst season Ira Flagstead, of the Huston Red Sox, broke a record that has stood for 25 years, by taking part In thrse double plays as an outfielder. On one occasion, Trls Speaker, of tho Cleveland Indians, figured In two double plays. As a matter of fact he hogged both of them, making the two-play killings unassisted. llowover. It was Flagstead who set new American League record and tied the National League.

Way back 1'5. Jack McCarthy of that organization, figured In a trio of them. Flagstead established his record on April 19, Patriots' Pay In Boston, In game with the Philadelphia Athletics. He was stationed In centre-field. On two occasions, with runners on third, batters hit long drives tu centre-field on which the runners felt sure they could score after the catch.

each Instance a perfect throw cut them down. The third doubleplay was a trifle more unusual. In this play Flagstead gut the hit and threw to llaney third, who relayed to Herrera at second, getting the man there; when the runner on third tried to score during the operation, he was thrown out at the plate, Catcher BischofT handling the ball. Each play figured In saving; the game, since Flagstead cut off three runs, while the best his team could was trim the Athletics by a one-run margin, 2-1. Flagstead's career as an outfielder has been a most unusual one.

He came to the Detroit Tigers in 1919 and stuck around for all of four ears, doing t'ench duty most of the une. After Ty Cobb was appointed loanager. he decided that Flagstead wouldn't do and sent him to the Uoston Red Box. L'nder Lee Kohl's direction, Flag stead took on a new leaae of life. was a different ball Dlayer and in side of two years was rated one of the best outfielders In the American League.

Ills batting has been on a oar with his fielding. Thus Cobb's Inability to see Flag' stead as a prospect cost the Detroit club an outfielder who could now be used to advantage. He la the equal or any of the Tiger outfielders, and tiiey are a olasay lot. iLXbei'tS K(ltC This Jockey Coming Star OS ANGBLEti Feb. 8.

Gcortre Yal lilpvr in from Superior with hin rink on Wednesday and after a care of. Not being on the early waiK around ana see the sights. STANDING at the corner was an elderly English chap, apparently a stranger in the city, lie hailed Mr.

Yale and asked for directions to get to a certain part of the city. "Most extraordinary plaoe this," quoth the Englishman. "Lots of people out of work, but they have a jolly good spirit. Some are well dressed too. They even leave home with a broom and seem ready and willing; to ect out and sweep sidewalks and streets to earn a lieile something.

I never saw people so ready anil anxious to get work." Mr. Yale lasted just long enough to return to curling headquarters, and upon relating his experiences to Charlie Harris, both collapsed. Latest advices are that they will be up and around by this evening. A WAVE of temperament is spreading through the heavyweight ranks and threatens to tangle up Tex Kickard's elimination scramble. Kealizing that the sudden jump in heavyweight values, the thumping niastadons have become so proud, haughty and inde pendent that they are telling Rickard whom they will and will not figlit.

SINCE Mike McTigue knocked out Paul Berlenbach lie has taken on new importance and has nonchalantly tossed off an offer to fight Tommy Loughran. This has been suggested by the Garden matchmaking department as an elimination for a title bout with the light heavyweight champion, Delaney. Another contender who has been seized with an attack of temperament is Jack Sharkey, the Boston heavyweight who defeated Harry Wills. SHARKEY has been offered a bout with MeTigue for February 25, but be has scorned it. MeTigue wants no less an onnonent than Sharkey and Sharkey wants to fight the winner of'tiie De-laney-Maloney bout or Jack Dempsey.

LOt'GIIRAN was offered a bout with Kmite Hanson after Paulino withdrew with an injured hand, but Hanson refused to go into the ring with the Philadclphian. Sharkey has also dismissed the suggestion of a bout with Tommy Longlirnu, while Louuhran also turned down an offer to box Sharkey wants to fight no one except some of the to called "big shots." He considers that his victory over Wills places him among the major heavyweights and he regards many of the opponents who have been offered him as minor leaguers. MATCHMAKER JESS McMAHON has matched Voting Strib-ling and Eddie Huffmnn for February 7 as a substitute for the Paulino-Hanson contest. This will be the Georgian's first fight as a heavyweight. Stribling has not been in the ring hereabouts since he was defeated last summer by Paul Berlenbach at the Yankee Stadium.

Since that time lie has taken on Walk Miller, manager of TigereVlowers, as his manager. The first thing Miller did was to boost Stribling into the heavyweight division and if he defeats Huffman here on February 7 he will find himself right in the thick of the heavyweight elimination fuss. Aithougn a veteran in actual ring competition, Stribling is only 22 years old. IF Rickard is unable to induce Sharkey to box MeTigue, Stribling is likely to be the Irishman's next opponent if he defeats Huffman. In the meantime Hie Garden will make another effort to match MeTigue and Loughran in a light-heavyweight battle.

Jan. 25 Wliat part does catching play In the suc cess of a star major league pitcher? No one should be better quulilied to answer that question than Walteir Johnson, generally recognized as tha greatest pltcner the gume has evey produced.

"Throughout my career I have been very fortunate In having a good catcher to hand) my delivery," say Walter. "All at them have plojreA a big part In whatever sticeeaa has come my way. "I regard Chsr- ley Street, thS) catcher who broke me in as a big i leaguer, and Muddy Ruel, who will probably be JOHNSON the last backstop to give me signals, as the best catchers I ever hava i worked with. "Speed was practically my nl asset when Street caught me. I waa credited with being very fast, but never seemed to get enough atuft on the hnll to satisfy him.

Asking me if I liad a sore arm was a favorite quip of his when I was bearing dow hardest. "Neither Street or Ruel mane seem as if I was hard to catch be- cause of my great speed. On the cone trary, both made it iook easy, jjinn were entirely different In style but equally efficient." CHICAGO CARDS.
