TRAINING CAMP BRIEFS.

Acosts has invited Joe EnEel to spend
a few weeks with him in Cuba next win
ter. and Joe is anxious to make the
trip.
Scnor Victor Munoz and Joe MassaEuer.
ir.. the Cuban sport writer's. spend al
least one hour each night giving CalVo
and Acosta lessons in English. The
scribes will not be here more than week
or so and they are anxious for their
proteEcs to he able to make themselves
understood after they leave. AS the kids
are quick to learn. little trouble in this
direction is anticipated.
Buck Barton the former PcpCo finger,
is immensely popular with the boys.
Barton is quiet and unassuming, works
hard and never complains. The camp
life evidently agrees with him. for he
has gained six pounds since he has been
down here
Bert Gallia. who slid out of the quar-
antined town Of WoOdsboro, Tex. un-
der cover of darkness in order to be
with the Nationals. says he received n
number Of letters from Nick Atrock
during the winter. Every missivc was
filled with regular sermons. also advises
on how to train. One letter read, What
ever you do. report on time" Up to
Friday night Nick himself had not put
in an appearance, and Gallia is of the
opinion that the Dutchman must have
been kidding him.
Chick Green, of Washington, one Of
the most loyal baseball fans in the coun-
try. kindly remembered the scribes in
camp by sending down case of min
eraI water and few drops of something
stronger. all of which was greatly ap-
preciated.
Chick GandiI pulled off the banner
joke Of the camp Friday. when Ger
many Schaefer was informed that Chick
was sick, and when the Teuton made
inquiry Chick, who was reposing in bed
under several blankets. preparatory to
tearing off a big sleep, replied, Yes. /
am sick: I've got a lame arm: get out
OF here"
What do you think of that?' Schaefer
asked the gang. Il thought he was half
dead. and he tells me he has a lame
arm I've got a lame arm, too, but am

KNOCKOUT PUNCHES
SET BACK Fighters
Rivers, Lightweight Mexican Battler,
Exception to the Rule, and Is
Great at Coming Back.
HAS LARGE FOLLOWIN G

1t has been said time and again that a
knockout punch generally is the begin
ming of the end for a pugilist. II this
be true, then Jose Rivers. the Mexican
lightweight, is surely an exception 10
the rule.
Joe Rivers has done by far his best
work since being knocked out. Remem-
her. fans. how Johnny Kilbane keeled
Jose over In the sixteenth round of their
bout on September I. 1911. when Uncle
Tom McCarey was grooming the Mexi-
can to be the feathcr-weight champion
OF the world? Instead. Kiibane earned
the right to fight Abe Attell and won
the 122-pound crown.
Rivers Comes Back.
That knockout didn't stop Joe Rivers
him all the more determined TO earn
vas. october y OF that same year he
knocked out George Kirkwood in eight
rounds. and on November eS he battled
Jack White to a twenty-round draw.
The year 1872 found Rivers graduating
into the lightweight division. His first
battle was with frankie Conley. on jan
uary l. He knocked out the kenosha lad
in eleven rounds. Jack White tried con-
clusions with tte Mexican again on
." aho koNn NhN tOoh1 tLt
twelfth round.
Then came Rivers mix-up with Ad
Wolgast on July I. in which the for
mer lightweight champion won by a
very fuky knockout in the thirteenth
round. Once again It was thought Riv-
ers was at the end OF his rope. But
not So
No Yellow streak.
His detractors. who said that he had
a streak of yellow a yard wide in his
makeup, were forced to sit up and take
notice. True. on September = Rivers
was outpointed by Joe Mandot in a
twenty-round oout. but he did not train
faithfully for that session. On Novem-
bcr es he stacked up against Mandot a
second time and gave him 4 beautiful
lacing in twenty rounds.
Early this year Rivers went to New
York and hammered Leach Cross
around the ring In n ten-round set-to.
while on February 80 he knocked out
Knockout Brown in the tenth round at
Vernon. And it must be remembered that
prior TO his meeting with Rivers, Kayo
had never been knocked down, to say
nothing of taking the count.
Truly. Rivers is the real comeback
of pugilism. and II he ever tackles Ad
Wolgast again or Willie Ritchie for the
lightweight crown. he will have large
following in the betting.
