JOHN |. SULLIVAN
SAYS BE HONEST
Also Take Many Trips on the
Water WagOn-.Be on
the Level

Boxing. as well as all other sports, IS
an honest mans game" says John L.
Sullivan. "The public has no use for a
faker I'm anything. but less in boxing than
any other place. 1 did not take any in
torest dn the Gans-Herman fight, because
one Of the principals is a self-eonfe ssed
faker. He is a great boxer. and yet he
has not made much money. Clubs do not
want min, and tho public would not go
% see him until he was brought into the
Nevada mining camps, where Il seems
they viii not stand for taking.
''Why do you suppose 7 am ch,c ed 50
Justify wherever appear to-day? one
reason Is. and a big one, that I alway 8
fought on the square. I am repaid for the
course I pursued every time a crowd
greets me. Keep IA good condition. Ii is
not necessary 10 carry the training stunt
too far Just observe good HABITS an7. II
you can. ride on the water wagon. Pay
your obligations and be square with your
friends. II is a mighty short-sighted pol
icy for a fighter. especially ono who is
trying 10 rise in bis profession. 10 rsl,
his whole future for tho sake of q few
dollars at tho time
You must have courage. D'n't d'cker
with your prospective opponent as though
you were a merchant driving a hard bar
gain. Keep ia your class and fight any
body in your class. Then the public comes
10 know that you are no. yellow. d m,
tell fighter 10 go out and got a repvta-
ton. II a cluh will stage your bout 20 or
with anybody. Look ahead 70 w'nn ne
fairly rather than the dollars you W u
receive. II you are a good boxer and
a gentleman. tho dollars will take care OF

ROBSON BESTED
TOMMY MURPHY
English l26-POund Champion
Landed the Greater Num-
Der Of Blows

snixe Robson, the l26-pound chapp on
o Ensland. outpolnted Tommy Murphy
oi Nc,v York, In six rounds at the Ma
,.onai Athletic Club. Philadelphia, last
,,riu. There we're more than 300 blows
struck in the Is minutes Of hghung. and
, these the Englshman landed the great
az number. Hisblows were more eheo-
i've. as at the nnish Murphy was bleeding
at tho nose and mouth and blood was
frickling from &C III over his left eye. The
New York lightweight forced the hghtng
IN four Of the six rounds, but many Of his
blows fell short o. their intended mark
or we're cleyerly blocked by Robson.
The nrst three rounds were practically
even. with Murphy tie agsressor. Rob-
son made a great rally in the fourth and
hfth rounds. and repeatcdly caught his
opponent with swinging right hand leads
which staggered the Gotiamte.
Murphy always came back for more
when Robson gave the crowd a glimpse
OF his ring generaiahip. lie slde-stepred
ducked and bounded around the ring Ike
rubber ball. This seemed 70 disconcert
Murphy who was unable 10 land one el-
focUve punch.
Frequently Rohlon fented HIM out and
caught him With a rlght-land swing as
ne was coming In. These were tho hard
est blows Of the bout, and Il was these
punches in the fourth and NTH rounds
that turned he tide In Rohsan's favor.
Murphy made "a desperate effort IN the
sixth round 20 win by a knockout Iie
WAS after the Englshman from the tap
OF uhe bell until its Jingle ended the hsht
but he failed to land the necessary punch.
This round was al in Murphy's favor but
not sufficient to balance the eocd work
of the Briton in the previous rounds.
