What players will compose the Crack

These are the questions local fans
are asking these days.
Some time to-day Bill Smith,

of these questions. Bill has been At

past few weeks figuring just what sort

quarters, where Messrs. Galloway,

last season, as the Crackers won the
pennant practically with him out. Bat
Whitley IS a valuable player. Also he

who will replace Alperman as field

SPORTING COMMENT

gan, who was one OF the great
est characters of the decade in
addition to being great ring ar
bitter acted as referee in an
other and perhaps the shortest
fight possible under the rules.
This one happened in Harvey,
III, and Battling Nelson was the
victor, knocking Billy Rossler out
with the first punch, delivered
almost before the men had put
their gloves up in defensive POSI-
ton. II took place on April 5.
1902, and almost as soon as the
bell sounded Nelson ran across
the ring, met his opponent with
heavy left hand swing and
knocked him as fiat and as cold
AS could be.
I OGAN always claimed after
- wards that the Harvey fight
was shorter than the Hawkins
Knockout at Carson City and be-
ing referee of both OF them was
in position to know. Both were
so fast that the timekeepers hard
ly could measure them with any
degree of accuracy. In both cases
the blows were of a similar char
acter although Hawkins punch
was a short, snappy one. while
Nelson's was delivered with a
long swing following a run and
jump.
n ESPlTE Hawkins great speed
- and skill and undoubted hit

fell considerably short OF land

The F'laherty battle gave him a

the world, and he did pretty well
