pugilistic ladder another runG
last night, when he proved to
the members of the National Sporting
Club, of New York, that his forty
second" knockout of Al Benedict a
couple of weeks ago was no fake. He
battered Benedict so hard in the third
round that the referee had to stop the
bout to prevent Benedict from being
killed. The notable thing about the
bout was the fact that White was not
In any too good shape from Benedic;'s
wallops until the third round. when he
went to work on his victim. White was
in the Office this morning looking net
much the worse for the bout. He said
that he would probably meet Larry
English at Albany Monday night.
White certainly deserves credit for
the showing he has made so far.
The A. A. U. has started a campaign
against the misuse by amateur ath-
letes of expense money It's about
time.
This feature of athletics is certainly
oren to a lot of criticism, Judging by
the talk one can lear almost anywhere.
The important thing of all is hat those
who have the proper evidence lie in
duced to make it known and no. hold
back, as they have lone for years.

Some pugilistic champions are GER
tainly funny persons. Take Johnny
Coulon. He his retirement
for the summer and the fact that h
will meet Johnny DAILY in the fall. Now
DAILY meets Frankie Burns tonight at
the Twentieth Century Club and will
probably be beaten by the jersey boy,
yet the champion picks DAILY as his next
opponent. This Coulon is certainly the
best managed boy in fistiana,

TO the Sporting Editor of the Evening Star:
I read In the sporting page of the
Newark Evening STAR an article con-
corning Irish Mahon, in which Irish
Mahon states that he has knocked me
out in three rounds. Now. he knows
that he never knocked me out in three
rounds n that he cannot put me
away in ten rounds. The occasion that
he refers to was a bout between us
down at the Central Institute for four
rounds, in which he shaded me slightly.
Now, to prove hat 1 am sincere and
that I am confident that he cannot put
me away, not ven in ten rounds, l am
willing to wager 800 on the sid upon
the outcome of a fight between us, If
he is willing to box me. | am ready to
accspt his answer at any time. as l
am at present working out at the
Savoy Athletic Association, where l
can be seen any evening. Yours in
sport, DUNG
