TOMMY MURPHY WINS
BOUT WITH BEDELL
Brooklyn Boys Engage in Fast
Contest Before Big Crowd
at RoyaIe A. C.

NEW YORK, January 17,-Tommy
Murphy of Flatbush outpointed Joe Be-
dell of Brooklyn in an exciting ten-round
bout at the Royale Athletic Club of
Brooklyn last night. The bout. while not
as sensational as the recent clash be-
tween the same pair several weeks ago.
was much faster than the average bouts
and kept crowded house in a state of
first round until the final gong in the
tenth. There was no stalling by either
boxer very little clinching and no time
when either was in much distress.
Murphy's superior cleverness and his
ability as an infighter decided the issue.
but he found in Bedell an opponent who
forced him to go at top speed all the
way. The Brooklynite really put up re-
markable battle under the handicap OF
an injured eye. Murphy opened an old
wound over Bedells left eye in the first
round and it bled until the finish. The
one small cut bled SO profusely all the
way that Bedell had the appearance of
a badly beaten boxer when he in reality
was always dangerous and never in great
distress.
Murphy's infighting played most
prominent part in his victory. He drove
hard smashes with either hand to Joe 8
stomach throughout the bout, and he
shot up wicked uppercuts in the clinches,
which sent the Brooklynite's head back
with snap. In the open fighting Tommy
also showed to advantage. but he found
BedeIl able to take all that he could send
and always come back for more.
In the fourth round Murphy gained the
honOrs by wide margin, but this was
the only chapter in which he led to any
extent. In the other rounds which Tom
my won, he had to be content with a slight
advantage. and the same was true Of
.Bedell in the chapters which the Brook
Ignite gained. Three of the ten rounds
were SO even that 1t would have re-
quired a hairline decision to give the
Naonors to either.
Unlike the last clash between this pair,
there We're no clean knockdowns. In
their other battle each succeeded in drop
ping his opponent more than once, but
last night each kept his Jaw away from
the drop punches. Bedell went to the can
vas last night but his fall was the result
of his own efforts during hot exchange
in a neutral corner. rather than to any
hard punch by his opponent. Three or
four times Bedell hooked in a left OF
swung a right with sufficient force to
rock the former Harlemite, but Tommy
always recovered quickly. The only time
thay Bedell was in serious trouble was
in tile fourth round, when Murphy drove
him to corner and shot rights and
lefts with force enough to make Bedell
hold on
The bout drew the largest crowd that
has attended any contest in Brooklyn for
more than a year. The big Clermont ave-
enue rink was taxed to capacity, at least
5000 persons being present.

here last season to warrant the opinion
that they are better players than any OF

spring.
few years ago there was some agita-
tion against the use of the spit ball. il
being argued that this delivery was injur-
ing the game, not only because II was
making some pitchers successful, but also
because of the rather disgusting spectacle
that the mostening of the ball presented
Ii was argued at the time that the spit
ball would never grow popular with pitch
ers and this seems to have come true.
Whether il is a fact or not Is open to argu-
ment, but ii is true that the average ball
players consider the use of the spit ball
injurious to the pitching arm. and this
belief has held the use of the ball to
minimum. The greatest pitchers in tie
game today do not resort to the splitter.
Ed Walsh is the only star who uses ii
occasionally. and he bluffs with il most of
the time. Marty OTo0le is said TO owe
his success to a spit ball. but good judges
who have seen him work aver that
Marty uses it but seldom. and the Pitts
burgh club. hopes to have him eliminate
this delivery entirely next season be-
cause it is thought the strain is too
much for his arm.
Griffith has familiarized himself with
the peculiarities of his players and he
will govern them accordingly. The con-
tract which he will have Dixie" Walker
sign will bind that worthy to rules OF
discipline which are sure to bear results.
Walker ought to be a successful pitcher
in this company and the only reason he
has not starred is because he has never
given his work the serious considera tion
il deserves. With Walker il was case
of forgetting the game as soon as ii was
over and this had detrimental effect
on his condition. Under his new con-
tract there will be not much chance for
him to do anything but attend strictly 10
his business If he expects 10 draw any

Dixie" Walkers contract with the Ma
tionals next season will be along lines
which are calculated to make him walk
the straight and narrow path. To date a
contract has not been submitted to the
Alabama twirler, but there has been con-
siderable correspondence between him and
Manager Griffith. The object of this let
ter writing was to impress Walker with
the fact that playing base ball should be
something more than a summer vacation
with him. 1t was made plain that if
Walker ever hoped to draw salary such
as other pitchers receive it would be nee
essary for him to get right down to busi-
ness and deliver the goods 1t was fur
thermore stipulated that when a contract
was sent him to sign it would have cer-
tain clauses in it which. if violated, would
cost him pretty penny.
This morning Griffith received letter
from Walker in which the latter ex-
pressed satisfaction with the proposition
made him. He said that he was ready
to do whatever the club might wish and
that he had made up his mind to make
this coming season the best of his career.
He added that he realized that ii he
wanted to get more salary he would
contract which Griffith might send him.
regardless of what clauses it would con-
tain, would be signed and lived up to the
letter. Griffith will ARRANGE a special
contract for Walker at once and send it
to him, and he says that if Walker will
live up to it he will be winning pitcher
in the American League next season.

ROUNDING UP HOLDOUTS.
President Fogel Goes West to Bring
Those Star PLAYERS to Terms.

PHILADELPHIA. Pa, January IL
Anxious to secure the signed contracts
of a pair of his players who have been
attacked by holdout fever, President
Horace S. Fogel has gone west to bring
them into the fold. The two chaps whom
he wishes to corral before he gets back
are Dode Paskert and Grover Cleveland
Alexander.
Luderus. star first baseman, also is
holdout. 1t is more than possible that
Fogel will meet Dode in Cleveland today
and have a heart-to-heart talk with him
Paskert wants a little more money, and
the Phillies feel that they have offered
him all that is necessary at the present
time. 1t is possible, however. for a COM
promise agreement to be reached.
There should be no difficulty in signing
Alexander. He has already notified Doom
that he is ready to sign. but he wants
Charlie to tell him what to do in the con-
troversy which arose between the twirling
sensation of 1911 and the Phillies.

If the several proposed outlaw leagues
really get down to business il may af-
ford an opportunity for some of the
players who are sliding to reap a final
harvest. PLAYERS who have seen their
best days and are just hanging on be-
cause of their reputa tions would be fool
ish not to accept long-term contracts at
good figures from the outlaws, providing
they are assured of their money. Such
players are not to be blamed for taking
a chance with promoters of the new
leagues, for when their days are over
in major league base ball they will be
forced to accept a substantial cut in sal
ary or drop out of the game. But the
trouble is that these outlaw leagues are
more or less of myth. Even il they
should start the season they will be OF
low minor league grade and will not
furnish opposition to the big leagues.
Young ball players who have future
would be foolish to tie themselves up
with an outlaw organization, but some
of the old fellows who are at the end OF
their string could not be blamed for as
suring themselves Of a large sa AIRY for
Il few years more.
Notwithstanding the fact that Jack
Johnson objects to Jim Flynn meeting Al
Palzar in New York. that match IS said
to have been ciinched for February Il.
This would mean that the F'lynn-J ohnson
fight will be declared off, for IL is not
likely that johnson will weaken on the
stand he has taken. Incidentally, il is
no sure thing that Flynn can beat Palzer,
in which event Flynn would no longer be
entitled to go with the champion. Ii

While no sensational playing material
