KETCHEL COMES
BACK AND KNOCKS
OUT BILL PAPKE

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Nov. I'll
Stanley Ketchel, of Grand Rapids, re-
gained the middleweight championship
of the world yesterday and reversed
his defeat of last September. when he
sent Billy Papke, the Illinois thunder
bolt" crashing to the floor, before a
we'll directed blow that caught his OPP
ponent flush upon the chin. The end
came In the eleventh, prior to which
Ketchel showed clearly that he was
master of his opponent at any kind of
fighting.
The knocking out Of Papke was not the
only exciting feature Of the contest, for a
dramatic event which occurred just outside
of the rin5 added considerable excitement
for those close to the rlngside. The gradual
wearing down Of Papke by the repeated
blows Of Ketchel had been closely watched
by Martin Carter, of Irvington, Cal. He
had become greatly excited. and each blow
added to his nervousness, and the strain on
his system became SO great that just after
the final blow was struck he collapsed and
sank helpless to the floor. When he was
picked up it was found that he was dead,
a victim of heart disease. Carter was a
noted breeder OF horses, being the owner
of the famous Nutwood Stock Farm, near
Irvington. which has turned out many
world-famous %trotters.

PENN DOWNS CORNELL FINISHING FOOTBALL
SEASON WITHOUT ONCE MEETING DEFEAT

the coaches did not make many changes.
Miller's big run came early In this half.
He took a punt on his own %-yard line,
and with good Interference started down
the field. All the Cornell players came at
him, but were bowled over by the Penn
sylvania forwards. Miller w~riggled his
way through outstretched arms, lodged the
big red tacklers and sprinted for the goal
line. Finally a Cornell man managed to
catch him from behind and downed the
plucky quarterback on Cornell's o-yard
line. But, to the disappointment of the
Pennsylvania followers, the ball was
holding. 1t was the longest run on Frank
liz Field this year.
Scarlett's good work gave Pennsylvania
her second touchdown. H~ollenbaclSs punt
went over the Cornell quarterback's head.
Scarlet tackled him and in the mix-up
for the ball CASTOR, OF Pennsylvania, got
1t aud In two plays Manner was TANNED
across the line for the score. The punt
out was blocked by Shearer.
After Cornell had failed at several for
ward passes, Miller made his second sen-
sational run. The little quarterback re-
ceived the bail evidently for a forward
pass play. The Cornell forwards missed
the tackle and Miller started down the
broken field. After running about fifteen
yards he stopped suddenly as If to shoot n
pass, and as suddenly again darted across
the field and down the line before a Cor
nell man could lay hands on him long
enough to stop him. The play was quickly
executed and Miller showed rare judgment
and presence of mind. Scarlet Kicked the
goal and soon afterward the game was
over.

In one of the largest fields ever start
ed in a cr%oss-country run in this city.
George F. Gerien. Of the Bellevilie
Catholic Club, yesterday won the race
under the auspices Of the Diocesan
Union In this city. Ninety-three run
ners finished behind him, and the
suburban lad had plenty Of speed left
at the finish.
1t was a hard race from start to fin
tsh. The muddy roads made fast time
impossible. Over hill, down dale,
through pools of water and mud, the
young athletes ploughed their way. All
of the runners seemed to be fresh
when they swung into Grove street
East Orange.
At the Lackawanna station, East Or

a steady stride he kept 1t until the
finish. Hugo Baudermann, Of the t. A.

over Cornell in football, the defeat of
Tom Jenkins at the hands of Yusiff
Mahmout on the mat. the victory of
Freddie Welsh over Abe Attell in the
pugilistic ring and the record ride of
Louis Wagner in the grand prize auto

Johnny Hayes still retains the Mara

always be known hereafter that there
is an Italian youth, Dorandos Pietri by
name, who Is his master. This was
proven conclusively in the rerunning of
the Marathon at Madison Square Gar
den Wednesday night.
A "Dend One" Comes to Life.
The victory Of Stanley Ketchel over Billy
Papke made new history. In that 1t was
the first time In the annals Of sports that
a defeated champion regained his title, and
from his own conQueror. In their previous
battle the Illinois slugger hammered the
cowboy into a mass of raw beef. Last
night this same Ketchel came back and
knocked out the man who had once stood
over him while the referee counted of the
ten seconds. Fortunes were won and lost
on the f1sght, for Papke had been an over
whelming favorite, at odds of 10 to 6, and
money was freely wageied.
The defeat of Attell at the hands OF
Welsh in their fifteen-round battle at Los
Angeles was a welcome surprise. This At
tell had "Iursed' the featherweight cham
pionshlp game long enough, though there
are many boys of his weight who are his
equal. Owen Moran twice fought the
Hebrew to a standstill. Even Tony Bender,
the Elizabeth fighter, 1oored him in a short
go" Yet he has continually posed as the
champion of his class. Little Welsh slightly
lowered Attells prestige, for he beat him
Gin,every round. Strictly speaking, however,
the Briton did not wrest the featherwelght
title from the, Californian, for the boys did
not fight at the featherweight limit. +
