Newark evening star and Newark advertiser. [volume] (Newark, N.J.) 1909-1916, 1911-05-23

OF the 1911 season is scheduled
for next Sunday. From the form
Champion Frank Kramer is now dis.
playing it's an easy bet that the Eas.
Orange boy will make it his eleventh
straight championship.
With that dangling from his belt he
should be in prime condition for the
worlds championship, which occurs
next year.
Winning a worlds championship to
top off an otherwise wonderful record
of eleven straight American Champion
ships would be something for Kramer
to take with him into retirement.
-;O;--
Il Young Kurtz and Billy Lewis fight
at Browns gymnasium in New York
tonight for the welterweight champion
ship of New Jersey, This should be
a tough 1ght-in fact one worth going
to see.
1t is hard to pick the better man of
the two, though we are inclined to
favor Kurtz a bit. Lewis is a sturdy
gentleman and terribly in earnest and
has a punch. but that wallop Kurtz
packs is a terror. Any man he hits
with 1t he hurts. He can hit Lewis,
we believe, and that's the reason We
favor the Ghetto boy. Both are good
boys.
Two New York boxing club have
important matches scheduled for
Thursday night. The Twentieth Gem
fury will show Young Ahearn and
Jack Goodman in a return engagement
and the Madison A.. C. will have
Knockout Brown and Murphy in the
4 same role. Brown and Goodman
4 should be the losers in the respective
bouts.
II is reported today in New York
that Mike Donlin will be reinstatez by
the National Commission today and
!. that McGraw will use him in a trade.
. We're wondering who wants him now
IL McGraw does not. Probably Clarke
Griffith, the lem~on-buyer, or Fred Ten
ney, who will tahe anybody.

4 To the Sporting Editor OF the Evening Star:
My money is sought by a man who
\ took a decision from a local evening
hpaper last night which | know is
wrong. A bet B that the Turnpike
trolley cars never ran to Hoboken. 1
ask you to please put 1t in your paper
II I'm not right that Turnpike cars
did not run to a Hoboken ferry.
Yours, B.
The Turnpike cars did run there
once upon a time. Some people de
cide'' away other peoples money as
easily as they slide out of the pay
ment of wagers they themselves have
lost,-Ed.
To the Sporting Editor of the Evening Star:
The Branch Brooks seem to be a
100000 40 oIaoa fair-r1indoA ha1I-p1aV.
gers and certainly put up the cleverest
4 exhibition seen on Columbia Oval this
season.
The fact that the fans almost to .
man hooted Umpire Gillian's decision,
and Manager Pendergast's
ment made the action of the visitors
but the more justiiable. AS but one
of inns -four best batters'' figured in
the run-getting those twenty-five
simoleons must have looked pretty big
for him to make the crack" he did.
Yours for a fair deal.
