XGREB-TUNNE TO RENEW FEUD IN CLEVELAND ON WEDNESDAY By KKGI M. WELH. V- Now that the once thought menace to the highest honors in the fight game has been relegated to the junk pile, there still looms: the fistic horizon a black cloud which sooner or later must be given a chance to make good its threat. The ignominious defeat of the "Calf of the Pampas" has proved that it takes something more: vrthan bull strength to remain as a leading contender in a class where; of fabulous worth are the reward. And that something Harry, Wills has, regardless of the attempt of many critics to underrate and minimize his achievements.

i-Wills didn't stop Firpo, that's th -only complaint those who are still I alleged supreme teFt. There 15 noth- local club owner. The open season for "holdouts" Is some months off. SUA IIP SHOOTERS WORKING O.V CUTLER. Don't think for a minute that opposing: pitchers arc not making it touch for young Hnxen Ctijler, the Pirates' sensational batter and fielder.

I have it from a friend who saw one of the games in Cincinnati and all the games of the lat St. Louis series awa.r from home that the sharp shooters have been very careless eery time Cnyler comes to bat. lie is being "dusted off" with a sickening regularity, so this man tells me, and It's no wonder that his batting average ha startexl to shrink. Cuvler's name published in the newspapers each day among the five leading sluggers of the National League fails to make a hit with npimsing pitchers, some of them at least, ami they are causing him plenty of trouble. There Is no possible way to prove that a pitcher deliberately throws at a batter's head, but those who know the game declare that Cnyler is being pickefl out by the sharp shooters whenever the opportunity presents.

He will probably regain his batting eye as soon as they let up on him, for he Is a natural batsman, and has done a lot for the Pirates this season. i OUR NATIONAL LKAf.UK GUESSERS. Even the New- York newspapers took a mild slam at President Heydler for turning down Pittsburgh's protest of that Philadelphia anie when a hall Morrison hit to fence and out of the playing field. Heylder declares that had he been here himself and seen the play he would have backed up his umpires. The idea of backing up umpires way to keep good loyal arbiters in and like all humans, make mistakes.

If the umpires themselves had J. 7 because he didn't add insult to injury by aggravating the punishment of the ilJ man of the South.

Vf WILLS GETS "RINAROIND. Firpo was shown up in his true a bull, with nothing else to 1 recommend him.

Ever since the niht stopped Joe McCann in Jersey, has made brawn the password in circles. Those who claimed he something more were forced to that they were all wrong after him. a mankiller, pleading with V-a referee for help, to go out and help get rid of a fighter, a boxer, who his stuff and did it better against Firpo than any other man whom the Man ever faced.

'It has been some time since the Lyceum boasted of a Rood football I eleven. The game is being: revived and the txiys are coins at it in the proper manner. Owen McManus, former amateur boxer, is the manager, and has been digging up talent all summer. He is I a hustler and usually succeeds in any- thing he undertakes. i The Lyceums have engaged a real i coach, too, in Red Pearlman, former ipitt star, who can still play a whale of a game at tackle.

Pearlman is a practicing dentist, but is able to find time to help the Lyceum team. They will tie heard from before the season closes. Wagner's Elks Win. WASHINGTON. Sept.

(ieorges 'arpentier, immediately upon his recent return to France, lost another battle concerninir which there was absolutely no publicity before hand and as to the result of which strenuous attempts have hen made to preserve secrecy. (Jeorges' opponent was a iraraae attendant am! the flcht was a combination of Marquis of Queensbury rules and ratch-as-catch-can wrestling. The boxer entered the garage in a great hurry and ordered the attendant to take his machine to the second floor In the elevator. Such work not being a part of his particular work. Ibis free born 1-Yench citizen refused.

Carpentier renewed his instructions somewhat sharply and when the attendant jiersisted in his reiusal and made some remark about "fresh war profiteers," Georges swung his famous right. It didn't land, for the garage man nimbly dodged, made a dive for Carpentier's legs, brought the boxer flown and literally wipetl the oily, begrimed floor with Georges' latest natty suit. Carpentier is to retire after his fight with Gene Tunney. "That fight will Ie the last Georges WH enter.
