KID MCCOY FLUKE
AS A CONE BACKER
Bout With Fitzgerald Wrest-
ling Match for Six Rounds
in Quaker City.

PHILADELPHIA, March 21.-That
the hourishing industry of staging res
erruction bouts has received a decided
setback here Is the opinion of those whA
last night witnessed the six-round bout
at the American A. c. between Kid Nc
Coy, former middleYeight champion,
and Jack Fitzgerald, of this city.
Although Mccoy retained enough OF
his speedy footwork to keep out of the
way Of Fftzgerald's swings, he appar-
emily had no judgment of distance, and
time and time again missed in the
most awkard fashion. Fitzgerald showed
none of his usual fighting ability. He
had a sort of near aggressiveneSs and
kept following Mccoy around the ring,
but when he got near enough to fight
would rush into a clinch- without at
tempting to deliver a blow. The pair
Wrestled for six rounds in the friepdliest
fashion. Neither sustained any dam
age, but the exertion tired the onOs
great Mccoy. That sums up the latest
attempt of once great fighter TO come
back.

Cy Young conditioned.

Concerning the case of one of the
most popular visiting pitchers that ever
stepped into the box at National Park,
John Doe, in the Cleveland Press, has
the following to say:
Old Cy will report this season in bet
ter shape than for years. When in
Cleveland several weeks prior. to his
TRIP To Hot Springs, he was lighter
than when he left the diamond last
fall. He has worked hard at Hot
Springs.

Cy. 1t is a<question of whether or not
he will have the stuff. His speed is
gradually diminishing. His curve is
gradually losing its-snap.

is assured.
The election Of the officers OF the

race and some high class sport.
Tech appears to have slight advar-
tage in all-round material, Central is
banking mostly upon the admitted supe-
riority OF Captain Boetler, while west
ern, Business, and Eastern are appar-
emily well matched.
The early schedules of all of the
teams appear to be more pretentious
than in past seasons, which means that
all the players should gain much valu-
able experience before entering the
games that mean so much to all of the

Anderson and Turner
Each Expects Victory

Both Anderson and Turner are conf
dent of winning tonight's match at the
Gayety Theater for the middIeweisht
wrestling championship OF the world.
The men are down to weight, and claim
to be in the best of condition.
Turner will attempt to wrest the
championship and the Lonsdale belt
from Anderson, but as the latter has
held both for some time, the Washing
ton man will hardly have an easy task
on his hands. Pat O'Connor will be the
third man on the mat, and, as his de-

Up to bowlers.

without attempting to take sides on
the situation, it appears TO me as
though the City Bowling Association
should decide at once as to its exact
attitude toward the proposed award
ing of the next tournament of the
National Bowling Association to this
city.
A week ago the bowlers here voted
in favor of the American Bowling
Congress, but there still appears to
be feeling In certain quarters that
the national should be invited here.
The national association should be
either invited here or else given to
understand thrt Washington does not
want this affair next year. Any de-
cision would do much to clear the sit
