Rain Puts End to Poor Bout
Between Melody and Waltz

Harry Grimes and Joe Murphy,
both Manhattanites, pleased the crowd

counts, holding on till the bell.
Grimes again showed the way in the
second session, out Murphy's come
back in the third round had Grimes
in such a dazed condition that he
failed to see his corner at the bell.
Again in the fourth and final round
did Murphy show to such advantage
that the decision by a shade for him
would be fair.
The most interesting bout of the
evening while it lasted vas that be-
tween Frank Hunter. from Balti-
more, and Walter McGirr, of New
York. Hunter showed local fans a
few points on the boxing game. He
also had a straight left to the face
that bothered McGirr repeatedly.
McGirr started the second round,
however, with the intention of set
Ting matters at once, and did SO, for
at the conclusion of the second ses-
sion Hunter was ready to fall, and
the affair was stopped.
Young Mccarthy quit in the early
part of the third round of his bout
with frankie Waldo. Mccarthy was
winning in the early part of the mill,
but soon tired and was forced to re-
tire.

The Ego" was a farcical affair while
1t lasted. After the first inning there
was little or no fighting. Waltz sent
Melody to his knees in the first
round with a right cross to the jaw.
Kid Lennox. the touted newsboy
champion, of this city, hooked up
with Joe Jackson, the Harlem de-
mon, in the semi windup. The rain
began to fall just as the lads had
begun. but neither wished to leave
the ring, and after two rounds the
squared floor resembled a lake in
which two fish we're battling. The
rosin made the floor quite impossible
to stand on, and as. a result the
lads had a skating feast. Jackson
showed to more advantage as a
skater" and earned honors over the
local lad, who was contented to do
some laughing and %grinning through
out the bout. Lennox injured his left
arm during the first session due to
the condition of the ring.

CHICAGO, July 17.-ManagerC hance,
of the Chicago Cubs, isn't a nervous
wreck; he isn't on the verge or a

that Manager Chance is feeling fine
and he's going to stick to the game
until he wins another pennant n a
worlds championship.
1t was only recently that startling
rurnors were flying everywhere to the
effect that Chances health had failed
him completely; that the old attack
of dizzy spells as a result of being
beaned a couple of dozen times dur
ing his career, had returned and that
doctors feared If he did not give up
the managerial worries he would soon
be sleeping peacefully under the green
sod.
What, me quit?" was Chances

truth of the tale that he was going
TO give way as manager of the Cubs.

Four-Game Series.

How the Game Was Won.
The Tigers went after Smith in the
first inning and two singles and a
pair of sacrifices netted one run.
Three hits in the second round scored
! another point, while in the third just
one more was added when Billy Zim-
norman tripled and came home on
Higgins's sacrifice. Baltimore's only
tally came in the third. DeMott
singled, went to second on Murphy's
pass, advanced to third on a force
and raced in on Walsh's grounder to
Kirkpatrick. Two hits, a double steal
and Parents error on Eddie thinner
man Melted two more for the Bengals
in the seventh. The Tigers final rup
came in the ninth. Kirkpatrick hit
safely to centre and took third on
Swacina's swat over second. Vaughn
hit into a double play, but Kirk

Great things are expected of Dupuy
tonight. He has shown a big i'm

the Frenchman should make the final
OF the Grand Prize and also qualify
for the quarter-mile championship.
