GRAHAM TRADED
FOR z QUAKER
YOUNGSTERS


Peaches Graham is cub no longer.
The stockys catcher, secured by the
west side club last summer in the deal
which sent John King to Boston, was
traded yesterday to Philadelphia for
two youn gsters. Pitcher Ward and
Catcher Cotter.
Young Cotter whose name appears
in the records as Carter. and who pas
timed here under that name last year,
has long been coveted by Manager
Chance. President Fogel of the Phil
lies is authority for the statement that
the name should be Cotter. Mr.. Fogel
has been wrong before and no one is
willing to swear whether it's Carter or
Cotter until the young man himself has
been consulted.
fhe young catcher made such a repu-
tation as an infielder with the Manhat-
ton College team that the York Tri-
State leage club took him on for a trial.
York was badly in need of a catcher
as we'll as play the infield. So he was
given the chance and made good from
the jump.
The Phillies purchased him late in the
season, and he appeared in several
games after the race was practically
over His appearance and carriage
impressed Manager Chance. who ad-
vised President Murphy to land him If

CARL MORRIS IS BEATEN AGAIN
Oklahoma Hope" Is Fooled by Boxing Skill of Brook
yn Adonis For Ten Rounds

Original white hope Stewart landed
many clean blows and repeatedly
slowed up Morris with solid punches to
the body.
The result was tremendous sur
prise to the throng at the ringside.
Morris was expected to crush Jim with
his heavy blows, and some money was
wagered that he would stop the local
man. But it was not to be.
Morris looked even worse than he did
in his fight with Jim Flynn. He seem
ed lacking in a variety of blows as
usual, using q right uppercut almost
exclusively. - When Stewart found this
was all Carl had in stock he got busy
and carried the battle to the giant
from Oklahoma.
The victory brings Stewart in promi-
hence once more after "A long string OF
setbacks. When Jim first started out
three or four years ago he was hailed
as a coming champion Then he got
going too fast, fought the stars before
he gained experience and hit the down
ward trail. This fight will give him
confidence once more, and already his
friends are talking about sending him
after Al Palzer.

Cubs fans will remember c. T. Mar

on the west side The reports OF the
scouts on him were so good that Man
ager Chance and President Murphy
were unwilling to risk drafting, and
purchased the youngster outright from
the Rockford team in the Wisconsin,
Illinois league. Rockford won the
pennant and Marshall won thirteen out
OF eighteen games.
Marshall Is strapping kid and
Chance expects him to develop into a

New York, Feb. 13.-Jim Stewart, the
Brooklyn Adonis, kept Carl Morris at
bay for ten rounds at the Carlyle A. c.
in Brooklyn last night and gained the
popular decision on cleverness. The
cumbersome Oklahoman failed to do
any material damage to the eastern
heavyweight, although he roughed it
at every opportunity. A bump under
Stewards eye was the extent of the
damage done by Morris, while the
westerner's features were badly CASH
ed by Stewards singing jabs.
Stewart showed up in front in eight
rounds, while the first and sixth were
even. In those sessions Morris threat
ened to wipe Stewart all over the ring.

rushed in Morris plugged away at
close range, but when he found that he
could not inflict any damage he became
discouraged and permitted Stewart to

Stewart fought i'm the same fashion
throughout. He jabbed several times

TAR BABY
BEATS BIG
jim BARRY

Sydney, n. S. w, Feb. .1s.-Sam
Langford, the Boston tar baby. was
given the decision over Jim Barry, the
white American heavyweight, after
twenty rounds of fierce fighting in the
Mcintosh stadium this afternoon
Langford. of course, was the favor
tie. because OF his great record against
Barry. They had fought nine times in
the United States. and Langford was
the winner eight times. six of the vic
tories being knockouts. Barry once
was given the popular verdict.
In the face of this record Barry made
a wonderful showing today. He car
ried the fight to his ebony opponent
and though outboxed a bit 1t hardly
can be said that he was outfought
Many at the ringside were OF the opin-
ion Jim should have had a draw, the
verdict Langford deserved when against
Mcyea.
Each man took a lot of punishment
and came back with gameness fol-
more. There was scarcely an idle mo-
ment in-the hour of fighting, and the
big crowd left the arena satisfied with
having seen q great battle.
