FIRPO THE HERO NOW SIMPLY FIRPO THE BUM In a fast high-stepping game, Tyrone last night defeated the Belle-fonte Academy by a score of 32 to 22 on the Tyrone floor. Tyrone started out with its usual class, keeping the visiting team doing something more than waltz time to keep up to them. They maintained the lead nil the way through, and only once did their lead look shaky that was In the last four minutes of play, when Belief on te took a spurt and almost overstepped. For the Belle-fonte boys It might be said that they rare a good bunch of sports, and had seven different kinds of hard luck missing the baskets, especially In the first half.

In games during the past week Fred Graham, captain and left end of the 1924 football team, and Aaron Oliker, right end on the same eleven, were the athletes that Coach Stadsvold used with the three veterans from tho banner winning quint of a year ago.

JOHNNY SHEPPARD TO MEET MARTIN IN RING Johnny Sheppard, the New England bantamweight champion, and boxer of champions, who has defeated two ex-champions to a referee's decision, is now matched to box the present bantamweight champion of the world at Boston, February 2, '1925. Sheppard ia one of the most colorful bantamweights in the world today, and would himself be the bantamweight champion had' it not been for the fact that he has been forced to weigh in overweight every time he boxed a champion in his division. Sheppard, gave Goldstein, the for mer champion, quite a pasting up in Boston, winning' the ten rounds, whereas Cannonball Martin, the present title holder, won a hair line decision over Goldstein, therefore, Sheppard bids fair to become the next title holder in the bantamweight division after his embroglio with Martin in Boston.

Caveney was a wonderful fielder, fast on his feet, a good thrower and a heady player.

Fonseca seemed a star in the making. Then Caveney's legs failed to stand up under the pounding an inflelder's legs receive day after day. Fonseca found himself chased constantly by old man Joe Hoodoo. Louis would get his chance in the infield, go like great guns for a few days and then come a cropper by injuring himself. Dr.

Nurmi is slated to run 3,000 metres, or less than two miles, at Madison Square Garden Thursday in connection with the national junior indoor championships. On his way to the finish, he will be clocked at fthe mile and a half and mile and three quarters marks. At Chicago he.

Sigel SPORTS SEASON OF '25 LONGER THAN LAM VfcAK Two steps have been taken in recent days to lengthen the coming summer season, regardless of the weather fore casts for the year. First of all the big league schedule makers tacked another week onto the baseball season by extending the closing time of the campaigns to October This automatically moved the world's series -that much farther into the fall. Then the stewards of the grand circuit, at their annual meeting In Cleveland, accepted a schedule that calls for the opening of the season at North Randall track June 22, an earlier opening date than the circuit has had in late years at least. The length of the racing season is stretched a week, partly to admit At lanta, and give it five days of racing in October after the last Lex ington meet ill AMERICAN being a wonderful basketball player, she is also a good shot at the, traps and a fine tennis player as well as beine an excellent swimmer. Oldtimers will remember her father, well known as "Roxie" Roach, fa mous for his baseball playing and his trap shooting.

He formerly played for the New York Yankees in the American League and captained the Louisville, team in the Ameri can Association. Last year he was manager of the Johnstown Indies and still plays. He held the amateur clay bird championship of Pennsylvania while Mrs. Roach held the same title for women. Miss Golden, manager of the Johns town team, says her team throughout measures up to the same standard of play at Miss Roach and Miss James, which assures locals fans that they have Home The preliminary game tomorrow evening will start promptly at 7.15 o'clock and the big game will begin immediately afterward.

I OECISI PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 12. Eddie (Cannonball) Martin, bantamweight champion was awarded the referee's decision over Tommy Murray, Philadelphia, at the end of a' ten round bout tonight, after the judges' had disagreed. The decision was unpopular with the fans Martin, whose title was not at stake, weig'hed 118 1-2 pounds and Murray 121. Jabbing with lefts to the face and crossing rights to the head, the Phil- adelphlan carried the fight to Martin in the early rounds, riis blows, however, apparently lacked steam.

The champion took the offensive in the seventh round, landing a number of hard blows to the head and body with a few hooks to the jaw that drew blood from Murray's mouth. The remainder of the bout was fast and furious. Both men landed many blows and both were bleeding at the end, but neither was. able to deliver a punch with sufficient power to send his opponent to the floor. Carl Tremaine, Cleveland, won the judges' decision over Patsy Wallace, Philadelphia in the ten round semi-wlndup.

Tremaine led all the way. In the sixth round he sent Wallace down for a count of nine with a left hook to the jaw. Tremaine weighed 120; Wallace 116. WALKER HASN'T WON HIS SPURS BY LICKING MIKE Right now sundry gentlemen who took the view that Mickey Walker welterweight champion, was one of the master figures of the day, a real champion, are busy trying to explain his punk showing against Make McTigue, holder of the minor, though heavier title of light heavyweight. Walker won a decision over McTigue by him.

It wasn't because Walker's work was clever but because Mike's was worse than Mickey's. Walker's hitting was crude at times wild at other times, and ineffectual, at all times. How he can hope to stand off Benny Leonard after such a showing is a mystery. Of course, there may be some deep-laid plot on foot whereby Walker was to take it easy against Mike to induce other prominent gentlemen that he isn't much. But such a move would be poor business.

His showing against McTigue makes him worth less as a drawing card than he was before tfiat battle. It may be, too, that Walker was off form. Perhaps he was too heavy to be at his best. We can dig up a lot of alibis for him. But the fact re mains that he showed nothing in that battle to warrant statements that he is a great fighter.

He has yet to prove his right to be classed with the great men or hisj KOMEEO MEETS WEINEBT BOSTON, Jan. 12.

A crowd of 1500 jammed its way into the gymnasium of Madison Square Garden, eyes opened wide for views of every sporting celebrity gathered under the ancient roof. They saw Tom Gibbons and watched him, fascWted. They saw Tiger Flowers and a dbzen other gladiators doing their stunts. They saw and were eagerly interested in everyone and everything except the hulking figure of a man, slouched against one of.

the walls. He stood there watching the fighters, too. But more than anything else, he seemed to be watching for some friendly face, some friendly nod, some smile of greeting. But none seemed to notice him. After a while, he shambled across the floor, swirled his way through the crowd and out into the stueet.

In his passing a spectator in the gallery, attracted by the huge size of the man, asked a neighbor: "Who's the big guy walking out?" The neighbor looked: "Oh, that's Firpo, the big Argentine BUM!"

The Apprentices have played two home games this season and have won both, these being with the Jerry Crist five and the St Luke's Varsity. Both are fast clubs and with fine records.

NO REASON RIGHT NOW FOR BASEBALL MONUMENT The resolution presented to congress during the hysteria that followed last fall's world's series, offering as a gift from the American League a huge fund for the building of a monument ta baseball, seems destined to" be tossed in the waste basket. That is well There is no valid reason why syjch an offer should be" accepted. Baseball has Ieert called the national game.

It has thrived thanks to the patronage, generosity and undeserved faithfulness of the. fans. But the game itself has been under -a cloud frequently as a result of unscrupulous dealings of some players and the failure of the magnates to "come clean." If any monument is to be erected by any one it should be In honor of the fans and by the who owe their fortunes to the sport and the fans that follow it APPRENTICES A trifle more than a year ago he was the hero of heroes; cynosure of a hundred thousand eyes. Everywhere he strolled in those days lion izing throngs followed. They fought each other to get a "closeup" of him; they struggled and battled to get near to him.

Those who were favored with a glance or a smile felt that Fortune had favored them; those who were permitted the clasp of the hand that so recently had almost annihilated Dempsey, were transported into Again and again police were necessary to disperse the mobs that skirled around Firpo. If he crossed streets afoot, traffic became jammed by a cordon of hero worshippers. Banquets were given to him; he was showered with praises and with plaudits. And then, as time passed, Firpo was beaten by Harry Wills and beaten by Charlie Weinert. The hero of yesterday became the Argentine bum of today.

Firpo has all the money he ever can need even if he lives 100 years. But all the riches that are his cannot buy for him the worship that once was his gratis and which is his no more.
