SHATTUCK AFTER
TEEPLE'S SHOES
Winner Of Grand American
Wants Secretaryship.

Fred A. Shattuck, winner OF the
Grand American handicap, has put in
an application for the post of secretary
of the Chicago Gun club. to be made
vacant in the near future by the resig-
nation of Fred Teeple. who has man
aged affairs at the grounds ever since
the new location was opened Shattuck
was manager of the Grand American at
Columbus in 1908 and has been secre-
tary of the club there for some time.
Secretary Teeples resignation does
not take effect Immediately and he will
probably remain in charge until Octob-
err. He will then depart for Texas in
a gasoline yacht by way of the canal
and the Mississippi river, taking his
family with him Several candidates
have asked for his place at at the
grounds.
It was at first supposed that Teeple
would wind up his active connection
with the local gun club after the
Grand American, but he has decided to
remain and offciate at the various
events scheduled for the summer. One
of these is the Lewis trophy shoot OF
July 10 and IT. This is expected to be
one of the largest midsummer affairs
ever carded here.
Secretary Teeple proposes to with

yacht Bunco, which is now here.

SPORTING NOTES
Ketche1l's Punch a Myth
zpert says That Champion Is Ordinary

San Francisco, July THE bubble
has burst Fight fans no longer trem-
BILE at the mention of the ''Assassin's"
name. The bone-crusher has himself
been crushed. Stanley Ketchel, mid
dle-weight champion of the world, now
stands in the light of a game but very
ordinary boxer so far as real power of
execution is concerned.
San Francisco was today in the argu-
mentative throes of the middle-w eight
battles aftermath. All sorts of opin-
ions were expressed, and many different
theories advanced concerning the IN
satisfactory ending Of Mondays en-
gagement
One fact IS readily admitted on all
sides, and that Ketchel won on his
gameness alone. without having the
strength or the ability to inhict real
damage, the champion kept up stout
hearted appearance of aggressiveness
until the very end, and that is what
sent his number up when the battle was
finished
The question being asked all over the
city tonight Is:
What was the matter with Papke in
the twentieth round?" when the bell
sounded for this final session the hon
ors of the day were so evenly balanced
that had Papke, with his greater

strength, extended himself he should
have been returned an easy winner as
Ketchel was SO weak that hard shove
must have sent him off his feet.
All during the latter part Of the fight
Papke's strength and better condition
was in evidence. Many ringside spec
tators voiced the impression that the
Kewanee knight was waiting for the
twentieth round when he would win
with a final rush.
1t will be many long day before
Billy Papke Will be able to explain
away his actions during that last three
minutes of battle. Some OF the more
unkind. but plain spoken critics make
a straightforward charge that Papke is
not game.

ried back to his quarters at the Seal
Rocks hotel. no more distressed than
