NEW BOXING STYLE EVERY TEN YEARS
Jem Mace's Way of Fighting Due for Revival
by ROBERT EDGREN

favor and the milder glove fights un-
der Marquis of Queensberry rules
came in. 1t was thought that his style
of fighting was the only proper style.
Curiously enough the Sullivan period
came to an end in 10 years, for in 1892
Sullivan met Jim Corbett.
Corbett was Mace boxer. He stood
straight and was skillful and speedy
boxer He was not as aggressive as
Mace. He made a practice to use his
skill TO avoid all punishment. In New
Orleans he jabbed and jumped away
and ran around the ring until Sullivan
was completely winded and half blinded.
Not a solid blow had yet landed on Cor
bett when in the twenty-frst round he
stood and rained blows upon the tot
tering champion until Sullivan slowly
sank to the ground in defeat
Now the while boxing world went
mad over Corbett's style Of fighting. II
had seemed impossible that a mere
boxer could defeat the slugging Sulli-
| van. All boxers tried to be Corbetts.
| Clever. straight standing boxing, care
full defense and deliberate work on the
offense was the correct thing.
| Five years later, in 1897, Bob Fitz-
/ simmons knocked Corbett out at Car
son City. This didn't entirely change
the popular style of boxing, for Fitz-
/ simmons, former pupil of Jem Mace,
/ also stood straight and boxed cleverly.
! But Fitzsimmons specialized in deliv
ering the knockout punch very quickly
when he had the chance. Other boxers
| tried to master his inimitabe Shift"
| and employed the Fitzsimmons hook
and solar plexus punch. The period OF
| changing style this time came In seven
years instead of ten, for in 1899 Jim
| Jeffries knocked out Fitzsimmons.
Jcffries was a wonderfully strong
man-the quickest and strongest big
man the ring had seen in many years.
When matched against Fitzsimmons
| Jeffries was coached to use a crouch
ing position that would protect his
| body from the solar plexus punch. His
| body was bent over and his great left
arm stuck out like ram OF a battle
| ship. That style was all right for JEFF
| fries. but there was only one Jeffries.
| No other man living was strong enough
| to fight in that position. Still. the
| others tried it. and for years the JEFF
| fries crouch was the correct thing in
pugilism. The result of all this was
the development of what English box
ers refer to as the American style"
half crouch and a headlong rush with
both arms failing away for general re-
suits. Terry McGovern fought in this
half crouch, and his hooks were deadly.

About every 10 years there is an en-
tire change in the popular styles of box
ing.
Fifty three years ago, in 1860, Tom
Savers of England and Heenan of
America fought for the worlds heavy
weight Championship in England. 1t
was a battle between a very clever
English boxer of the old school and a
younger, stronger, better conditioned
American with less science. When Say
ers was being beaten the crowd rushed
into the ring and pulled down the ropes
so that the referee was compelled to
call the bout a draw. Two worlds
championship belts were made and one
was presented to the English cham
pion. who announced his retirem ent
from the ring. Heenan should have had
the other, but he never got it, for the
donor had neglected to pay for it and
the sheriff seized the belt at the in
stance of the maker.
That fight emphasized the Importance
of size and strength, and for a number
of years men of great height and
weight were considered the only prop
er candidates for heavy weight honors
Jem Mace came aTong.about 10 years
later. and in 1852 beat Tom King for
the championship. Mace was small
Hcdfy weight. lie was mdTNelOuSly
fast and clever. He stood up straight
and boxed scientifically. He was the
founder of a school of boxing that
turned out many famous men, Peter
Jackson, Bob Fftzsimmons, Jim Hall
Paddy Slavin and scores of other very
clever big men being his pupils.
In 1872 Mace fought Joe Coburn a
big husky American, for the champion
ship. The result was draw. under
circumstances somewhat like those of
the Heenan-Sayers9 battle. The inf1u-
ence of Mace was felt for at least 10
years more, and Jem himself boxed in
the ring until he was nearly 20 years
of age.
The Mace style of fighting was
Jared out of savor in 1882, when John
L. Sullivan defeated Paddy Ryan in
bout for the championship Of Amer
lea. Everything now was Sullivan
esqucs John J.. travelled about knock
ing out all corners in four round fights
His great strength and ferocity made
him the terror of the heavy weights.
He was a rushing, mauling fighter with
a terrific right hand punch that flat
tened all opponents as long as John L.
retained his vigor. Sullivan was the
model for all boxers. He was cham
pion when the London prize ring rules.

WOMAN HYPNOTIZED
BY THIEF WHO
ROBBED HER
Unable to Stop Him Taking s37s and
5000 Worth of
Jewels

New Rochelle, n. Y, Oct. l3.-Hypno-
tism was practised by thief who
robbed Mrs Edwin n Hunt, Is Church
street. of 1915 and 5000 worth of jewelry
Saturday afternoon.
Mrs. Hunt told the police that she felt
the man, who had agreed to purchase
her house after going through it, in
tended to rob her and that she kept her
eyes on him all the time he was there,
but did not see him take her handbag
containing her valuables.
Mrs. Hunt says she noticed that the
man leaned against the buffet where she
had laid her handbag containing 1915
The bag contained also three diamond
rings valued at about $780, The man
asked her to go into the yard and ask
her husband if the price he offered was
satisfactory. She refused to go and con-
tinued to watch him. Then he lighted
a cigarette. Mrs. Hunt told the police
he held the match before her face to
hypnotic her, but she has only faint
recollection of it. He left hurriedly,
saying he would return in an hour with
the money to pay cash for the house.
1t was just one hour later when he
was due to return that Mrs. Hunt
realized that her handbag was gone.

FELKER CALLS
THAW'S BLUFF
Shows Indictment Which Was Found in
Duchess County, Charging
Conspiracy.

Concord. N. H., Oct l3.--Gov. Samuel
D. Felker gave to a correspondent Sat
urday copy of the indictment found
by the Duchess county grand jury
against Harry X. Thaw.
Thaw and his lawyers have intimated
that William Travers Jerome was at
tempting to deceive the governor when
he stated that an indictment was re-
turned. Thaw alleged that information
which had been placed before the gov
ernor by Jerome was being withheld.
In reply, Felker stated that he would
place at the disposal Of Thaw's lawyers
a copy of the indictment found by the
Duchess county grand jury, which was
later held up pending further investi-
cation by Jerome into the alleged con-
spiracy to free Thaw from Matteawan
The indictment accuses Harry X.
Thaw, Richard J. Butler, Eugene Duffy
and Michael O. Keefe Of conspiracy.
This is the Indictment which Thaw de-
clared had not been found against him.
He even went so far as TO say that he
would return to Dutehess county end
demand trial upon the indictment if Mr..
Jerome could make good his assertion
that such an indictment had been re-
turned.

If Publishers Were Rich.

even the disappointment and exas-
peration over the failure to sell of
some books of much PROMISE says
Robert Sterling Yard, the new editorial
head of The Century Magazine, in his
book. "The Publisher" is tempered some
what by his satisfaction in having
planned and brought into being SO beau
tiful, so fit, so noble volume. If
were a rich man. he whispers to himself,
it would almost have been worth the
loss Just to have done it, He is not
rich and he cannot afford to have those
four figures on the wrong side of the &C.
count; but-well, it's all in publishers
life.
"One of the greatest of his sources of
happiness, one of the largest items on
the profit side of his book of life, is the
position his business gives him in ref
erence to literature, art and learning,
the affairs of the hustling, palpitating
world, the core of life; and, in the same
breath, the associations he makes with
the men and women who, in innumer-
able and widely diversified fields of en-
deavor, are doing this worlds living"

AGREE TO ABOLISH
COMMERCE COURT
Senate Amendment to that Effect Con-
Cured in by House After Spirit
ed Debate.

Washington, Oct. l3.-The House made
considerable progress on the urgency de-
fciency appropriation bill Saturday
The amendment of the Senate provid-
ing for the adjustment OF the United
States commerce court, but for the re-
tention of the four judges as additional
court judges until their death, resigna-
ton or removal, was agreed to in the
House after spirited debate. Mr.. Bart
lett of Georgia, member OF the House
conference, protested against the ac-
ton of the Senate. He favored the dis
continuation of the services of the four
judges Immediately.
The House sustained Chairman Fitz-
gerald, however, by a vote of 81 to AZ,
and the Senate amendment was adopted.
One of the hardest fights will come
OH the proposition to spend $1,000 to buy
new automobile for the vice president.
Two members of the Indiana delegation,
Cox and Gray, are booked to make
speeches against this provision in the
bill. The House conferees are against
it.
