BUOYS HOPES RED SOX SEES SIGNS OR NEW WHITE HOPE Thompson Asserts Deterioration Among Colored ighters Calls orth Prediction RAWLEY BOXING LAW UPHELD Repeal Measure Held Dangerous to Sport and Decisions Are rowned On BY JE THOMPSON NEW YORK Oct Signs are not lacking that the day of the hope" Is near at hand This is not due so much to the Improvement In the ability of the white heavyweights in sight as to the natural and unavoidable deterioration of the crop of negro fighters who have held the center of the heavyweight stage since Jack Johnson beat Jim Jeffries at Reno or the last two or three years there has been a quartet of negroes Johnson Izangford Jeannette and McVey who had the edge on anything in the fighting line with a white skin Outside of Johnson not one of them would have had a look for championship honors in the days of Corbett Sharkey itzsimmons and Jef fries but there were white giants in those days and there are not just now Hence the superiority of the negro fighters But the life of the fighting man is a strenuous one even now It requires strength agil ity and youthful muscles and the years ere dealing with the black quartet just as they have dealt with the great white fighters who preceded them Jeannette has undoubtedly gone back since he fought Langford a year ago al though he has not encountered an oppo nent formidable enough to defeat him de cisively The men he has met lack class He has scored a large number of quick knockouts but most of his victims were merely ups" Recently he has struck a snag on more than one occasion just how good Ijangford and McVey are at this date it Is difficult to judge Lang ford was beginlng to show signs of retro gression before he left for Australia He has certainly improved in the interval As for McVey he Is the weakest member of the big four in any case and is getting on years as "well It is a question if there are many more real fights left in Johnson It is there fore within the bounds of probability that the next championship fight will see a white heavyweight champion the rawley boxing law is repealed at the next session of the Legislature the sport will be crushed out completely" paid a prominent Albany lawmaker the other day repeal measure if in troduced will be aimed at boxing itself not at the clubs and promoters In short the measure will make it a felony to put on boxing gloves for a contest with friend or foe either in public or private pun ishable by not less than six im prisonment with no alternative of a fine who are laboring under the delusion that if the rawley law is wiped out boxing clubs can go back to former conditions and operate under the cor poration membership law and there seem to be some will learn that they are sad ly mistaken It will be a crime with a 4 all sentence attached to indulge in any of a contest with gloves in the state of New York The law may exempt schools and other institutions of learning however provided no public or private exhibitions are held by them for revenue "The present boxing law has prevented Sham and chicanery on the part of pro moters It has done away with grafting bj Individuals who have the enforcement of laws in their hands But in view of the hue and cry against the sport it may bewell to kill it altogether Selfishness and jealousy are making trouble also causing unpleasant notoriety and jealousy are not the most dangerous foes to boxing in this mate Unadvised friends of the game are the ones who will be to blame They are shouting for rules which will permit decisions That this will lend to an in crease in gambling with all the attendant evils admits of no doubt If we had de cisions in New York the rawley law would not last six minuses If fights which would arouse public opinion were to te permitted the same result would fol low It is fortunate for the game here that the Boxing Commission recognizes the situation and refuses to bo moved by the clamor of ill advised friends of the game" When Robert itzsimmons and Peter Maher were introduced at a boxing show the other day the writer recalled the day they first met in the ring at New Or leans just twenty years ago Maher was a terrific hitter and the idol of eons itz had whipped the lamented Jack Dempsey and was the world's mid dleweight champion In the second round Maher landed a tremendous right hand swing on jaw and knocked him clean through the ropes The Corn Ishman seetned to be done for and the referee started to count the fatal seconds Joe Choynski who was handling itz had his wits about him and ripping off the leg of a chair he struck the gong a re sounding whack The referee believing that the round was over stopped count ing and itz was dragged to his corner lie revived quickly and acting under orders he fought Maher at long range thereafter Maher couldn't reach him and received so many blinding jabs in the face that when the twelfth round ended Peter said: "I go on The red headed divvle has blinded me entirely!" So itz was the winner but Maher de manded another battle and they came tn gether at Langtry Tex four years later JHHL 'WWW it Hopes of Boston fans rest on Bill Car rigan The Red Sox backstop suffered an injury to his hand last week and some of the Boston followers fear he may be handicapped hi the series On Carrigan more than any other man the Boston followers pin their faith for they believe lie will be able to stop the dash ing New York base runners Maher got alkali dust In his eyes several days before the mill and was In poor shape when he put up his hands He was put to sleep in less than two minutes when itz landed a short hook on the point of his chin BAPTISTS ALL BEORE EARLHAM IN POOR GAME umbles and Lack of Team Work Mars Play of Both Eleven inal Score 22 6 'RICHMOND lnd Oct In one

Tenn Ort 5 Tn weather more suited to baseball than football the Vanderbilt eleven defeated Marysville Col lege 100 to 3 here today The winners were effective with football only Owing to the heat and

work on bogus tickets for the world's championship baseball games here next week according to reports reaching the New York baseball club to night Notwithstanding the precautions taken to avoid a ticket scandal it is be lieved that trouble is likely to occur if the reports of counterfeiting are true Sec John Heydler tonight said the patrons themselves are to blame If they aro foolish enough to purchase bogus tickets The plan Is said to be the work of scalpers of the most sort who having little chance to reap a harvest in speculation this year have designed deliberately to fleece ihe public particularly people from out of town we have heard these reports" said Mr Heydler is certain that the counterfeiters can not produce anything like the tickets we are using Not a single ticket has left my possession and not a single one will leave my hands until Mon day It is a hard ticket to counterfeit and with the game beginning Tuesday no printers would have time to copy it one who buys a ticket except In the regular way is certainly to be bunkoed There are a bo fit 5000 reserved seats to be placed on advance sale Monday morning two to each purchaser but all the other seats will be sold only at the grounds on the day of the game Since everybody buying a ticket will have to pass directly into the grounds there is not the slightest chance of any tickets getting afloat in the crowd for speculation 4Any pasteboards getting afloat in the crovd will be bogus and the police will be on hand to arrest any one trying to dispose of them or use them" CORNELL LOSES TO OBERLIN Ithacan Squad Is

grows (and it is cost of tion profit transportation charges and exces sive selling costs We do not ask KAHN Ready for Service Clothes to pay us a money profit because they pay OR THEMSELVES when they

Giants But there' are as good chances for 'a dark horse In the hall of world series fame Bill Dineen of the Boston Red Sox stands first in the 1903 series with Pittsburgh In 1905 Mathewson shut out the Athletics and was easily the most prominent figure that year In 1905 Joe Tinker of the Chicago Cubs was the main spring of sensational double plays although his club lost In 1907 rank Chance sprang Into fame by getting seventeen hits out of twenty one times at bat The next year Adams of Pittsburgh pitched himself iulo the front ranks Eddie Collins was the hero of the Chi cago Philadelphia
