SIGNS WITH CHAMPIONS

BOSTON. Dec. Sl.-'rhe Red SoN have
received the signed contract Of Joseph
Martina. OF New Orleans.
Martina is a right-handed pitcher re-
ported by Scout Patsy Donovan to be pos
sessed Of fine assortment OF curves and
a fair amount Of speed. He was secured
from the Beaumont club of the Texas
league Previous TO going there he had
failed with both the Atlanta and New
orleans clubs.

If a man considers himself a
boxer and goes in the prize ring.
he should not be afraid of any
other man. Slow bouts like this
McGoorty- Gibbons fray hurt the
game.
Among the heavyweights today
there is not a man that could stand
the pace set by the men of my day.
Jack Johnson is a dead issue, and
consider him out of the game.
Among the present heavies Luther
McCarty looks the best to me. I
have studied him through the
newspapers and l really think he
has a good chance to defeat the
other white hopes"
McCarty Not a Champion.
If McCarty is the winner Of the
elimination tournament for heavy
weights now being held out on the
coast. I do not think that he should
be hailed as the champion OF the
world.
If he should defeat Palzer or
several other men of the heavies, lie
has not won the worlds title.
This Carl Morris is a joke, and /
never considered Jim Flynn as a
top -notcher.
The boxers in the middleweight
ana welterweight classes are only
mediocre
I noticed that Ad Wolgast lost
the lightweight championship by a
foul From what 1 could learn from
the newspapers, it looked as If the
Michigan boy deliberately fouled
Richie as he was on the losing end
of the bout and would rather lose
the title by foul than have the de-
cision given against him.
In the old days a championship
would not be passed along by a
foul, except when 1t could be seen
after the offender had been warned
once. This appears to be the case
in the recent Richie Wolgast
bout.
Richie a Fair Boxer.
/ have never been able TO see
Richie in a bout, but / Judge that
he is a fair boxer. Wolgast was not
any too good, and ! did not believe
that he would hold the champion
ship long.
1t is too bad that Packey McFar-
land can not make the lightweight
limit that the champions of today
demand, for ! really believe that
Mcfarland could clean out all the
ightweights and then some.
In my days d champion would
give or take two pounds in bout
but today if a boy wants a chance
at the championship crown he is
forced to get down to ringside
weight.
Johnny Kilbane. who holds the
featherweight c h m p i 0 n h I D,
strikes me az clever little boy,
and If he Keeps on the right path
he has a bright future. / heard
about that bout that he is sup
posed to have pulled off with his
sparring partner which was
branded as a fake by the wit
nesses. He should drop that kind
of business Il does not get him a
cent.
Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1912-12-31

money
That is why we do not see SO
many bouts today filled with ac-
ton as we saw years ago. For
merly the boxers fought for a per
centage of a purse. q winners end
and a losers end. The extra dol
lars that would go TO the winner
acted like magic and some wonder
full bouts were seen.
1t is the public that supports the
boxing game, and unless you please
the public the boxing game is in
jured. When the boxers go into
the ring and mix it up to please the
public then the game will be given
a decided boost.
Boxing should be as popular as
baseball and can be made SO when
the men in the business work on
the square.
Honesty is a wonderful thing. 1t
is simple, yet so many boxers Of
the present day get into the ring
and play tag and other such games.
van SP'iih
1t is up to the boxers to uplift
the game. 1t can be done just by
honesty When a boxer goes in
the ring, fights hard. gives the
people attending a fine perform
ance, and earns what he receives,
then that boxer is doing something
for the uplift of the game. on the
other hand, if a boxer goes into the
ring and sidesteps and fails to mix
things, he is the one who hurts the
game.
Nothing is decided in the ten and
twelve-round bouts of the present
day. When a decision is given it is
usually awarded to the man who
has landed the most clean blows
but this does not prove the true
ability of the boxer.
No championship should be
awarded in a bout of short rounds.
The only way to decide a cham
pionship bout Is to let the man go
the distance. This is generally pro-
hibited at the present time. under
the rule that his kind OF bouts is
prize fighting. 1t may be so. but
that is the way the former cham
pionS won their titles.
l have read lately about several
bouts that were pulled off in the
South that were termed fakes
This is the worst thing in the
world that could be done. II kills
tho boxing game and ! will say that
the men who take part in this kind
of bouts should be barred from the
ring.
Fake Bouts Ruin Sport
one or two of these bouts can
ruin boxing in the biggest and
best cities The public will lose in
terest and will not attend when the
promoter puts on a good show.
In my days one never heard of a
champion setting up Il fake fight.
No. Every man who was in the
ring years ago was a fighter and
the public was given a lot for its
money.

cent AlcGoorty Gibbons bout in

sion that they were afraid Of each

he huuCbcd up one shoulder and

affliction; | saw him jerk his head
and thought he had motioned to

played in any league longer than
10 innings, and there were but four
such games. namely, one in the
American league, one in the Ma
tional league, one in the Interna-
tionaI league, and one in the Cotton
States league. All told, there were
only 80 games Of 10 or more innings
played in all leagues during the
1912 season, as against 81 such
games in 1911 and 106 in 1910.
