Query: VIII jeff Tesreau of the
New York Giants, prove the Babe
Adams of the 1912 worlds series? Re-
member Babe Adams: Three years
ago this young man, almost an I'M
known quantity j nthe baseball world,
piloted the Pittsburg Pirates to the
worlds championship over the Detroit
Tigers. Adams won the first game 4
to / over Mullin; the fifth to 4
against Summers and Willett; the sew
enth to 0 against Donovan and Null
lin.
In those days Adams was about as
new and young to the game as Tesreau
is now. Older and better known Pirate
twirlers were Camnitz, Leifield, Lever,
Philippe, Willis and Maddox. Today
Tesreau is very. young compared with
Mathewson, Marquard, Ames, Wiltse
and Crandall, but he may be the hero
of the worlds series just the same.
Johnny Dundee, who was bested by
Johnny Kilbane in their bout on Sep
TENDER 4, is anxious to get another
bout with the featherweight champion.
He thinks he can lick Kilbane next
time, and Scotty Montieth, Dundee's
manager, is optimistic, too. Montieth
says he stands ready to post a side
bet Of $1,000 on Dundee.
Friends having come to the rescue
with financial assistance, Howard
Drew, the sensational sprinter of
Springfield, Mass, will attend Dart
mouth college this year. Drew is poor.
and although only in high school, is
married and has children. He thinks
with the start his friends have given
hill he win be able to work his way
through college. In the meantime, he
will be Dartmouth's main hope in the
sprints in the college meets.
Negotiations have been started
toward the arrangement of post
season series between the Cleveland
Maps and either the Pittsburg or Gin
cinnati clubs in the National league.

Though everything is changed from the

Knockout Brown, the famous New
York lightweight, will box twelve
rounds with Tommy Trott of Column
bus at Cleveland on September 81.
This will be Browns first appearance
in Cleveland, most of his bouts having
taken place in New York, PHILADELPHIA
and Boston. Brown has fought no de-
cision bouts with Pal Moore, Ad VOL
CAST and One Round Hogan and has
Murphy.
Another young white heavyweight
who deserves recognition is Tom Nc
Mahon, who put Big Jim Barry on the
blink not long ago. Mcmahon Is also
under Dimes management He is a
game and aggressive fighter and
knows a good deal about the inside of
the game. He is light, but at present
looks good enough to win over any
165-pound fighter they can send
against him.
Starting life over again just where
he left it thirty years ago to become
one of the great powers in western
turf affairs, Edward Corrigan has re-
turned to Kansas City. Mo-. and start

Zimmerman and induced him to sign an
affidavit to the effect that he had al

support this stand Zimmerman was in

With these documents, according to
