CROSS OUTPOINTED
BY JOE RIVERS
Mexican Lightweight Is Knocked Down
in Second Round, But Comes Back
So Fast That He Dazes Op-
pOnent.

New York. n. Y, Jan. 15.-Joe Riv-
ers, the Mexican lightweight, OutpOint-
ed Leach Cross, of this city, in a 10
round bout here last night.
Cross had the better OF the first two
rounds. While the New Yorker was
shOwering rights and let's to the head,
in the first, the Mexican slipped to one
knee, but was up in an instant. He
blocked cleverly, and proved Cross
superior at infighting. In the second
round Cross scored the only real knock
down of the bout with a left hook to
the jaw. From that time on Rivers
fought cleverly and was so fast that
Cross missed frequently, becoming de-
cldedly wild at some stages. Rivers 5
showing IN the last round earned him
victory by a comfortable margin.
Rivers tore in with lefts to the neck
and a right upperCut in the third Cross
coming back with a hard right to the
head The Mexican missed a swing a
minute later and fell to the floor, but
was up again Immediately a left jab
brought blood from the MeNicans nose,
neutral corner, sending rights to the
body and let's t. the face.
Rivers became steadier as the fight
ing progressed, while Cross grew wild
and became worried under Rivers's
constant shower of left and right up
percuts. Cross backed away from the
assault at times. In the eighth the
Mexican fell again, tripping over
Cross's foot in breaking from a clinch.
Rivers then landed four rights and
let's to the face and head without
return. In the last round Rivers old
practically all the fighting.

it may require several more years, even

ment Of the new manager appears to
be the entering wedge whereby the
Yankees win in time be able to divide
the local baseball patronage on more
of an equal basis than they have here
tOfOre done.
New York is a National league city,
and there is no Disgusting that fact
But it will be a grand good thing. for
the national game when the American
league can assume to itself the same
prestige IN Greater New YORK that -
now held by the parent organization
In many other cities the American
league has the CALI on the National
But here that has yet to appear And
that is why I say that the signing Of
Frank Chance has paved the way for
new era in local baseball.
But the mere paving Of the way does
not assure the fact It is entirely Up
to Manager Chance He will have
very worthy rival with local fandOm
in manager McGraw, and doubtless
that was taken into deep consideration
by owner Farrell and the shreWd Ban
league, whose diplomacy was plainly
evident in the successful negotiations
that resulted in Chance becoming the
manager OF the Yankees
The American league has surely
made lots of capital out Of Chance
signing the contract to lead the Yam
KEGS The Highlanders in like pro-
portion. There are some local fans,
too, who are Of the opinion that the
National league had the wool pulled
over its eyes by falling to keep Chance
in its employ.

, ers gathered from the major leagues
It fell through, however, because there
was not sufficient time for the Austria
! nans interested TO arrange for funds.
Australians Alive to Game.
Mr.. Sphinx had agreed to make the
trip with the Ewing party, had al
ready arranged for his transp OrtatiOn,
and he decided he would go anyway,
even If alone, and see for himself just
how the Australians were getting
along with what president Eliot calls
q greater civilizer than a shiplOad Of
Observation-Disclosures A few days in
Sydney, the capital of New South
Wales, convinced him that it was not
lack of interest in "Our" game that
prevented carrying out arrangement
for Ewing's invasion.
In fact, Mr.. Sphinx found Australia
much alive baseballicaIly and hungry
for more Of the game, standing with
open arms, so to speak, to welcome
Americans who can teach them the
fine points, for they admit that their
game is as yet rather crude compared
with ours, though it is the same old
game, played IN the same Old way,
with the same old thrills and a mix
tUre Of American baseball expressions
and AUstralianisms that was interest
ing and often amusing.
The result Of the visit is that Charles
A COmiskey, who has talked Of taking
his White SOx to Australia next De-
cember, VIII be assured that he will
make no mistake, but Mr.. Sphinx will
warn him that he is likely to lose
some of his players-thinks the ma
tives may make things so pleasant for
them that those who haven't strong
home ties are likely to desert and re-
main to teach the Australians the OBJ
scure points of the inside game.
Mr.. Sphinx got no farther than sgd
ney, but was assured there that condi-
lions as he found them were practical
" duplicated in Melbourne.
Three Leagues in Sydney.
In Sydney he found a baseball or
ganizatiOn comprising three leagues,
capably conducted by enthusiastic
spOrtsmen. The leagues are amateur
affairs-the professional game is as
yet unknOwn-but admissions are
charged and the organization more
than pays the incidental expenses OF
operation One league has eight
clubs. the other six. Regular seasons
are played under schedules similar TO
those in operation in American organ
lied baseball. The best players are
chosen for the teams after tryouts
that might be hkened to the training
season in America. Mr.. Sphinx was
told that in Sydney and suburbs, where
the New South Wales Baseball asso-
ciation-fOr that is the name of the
Organization-is in operation, there are
500 young men and boys who can play
ball They are "baseballers," to use
the Australian term, and to be a base
baller' of any recognized standing the
athlete must be able to put up a game
that would not shame him in the or
binary minor league in the states.

HE ordinary Englishman may not
care for our balIy Yankee game,
\ you know, but ms Australian
brother does and only awaits an Amer
lean invasion to surrender all his other
sports, cricket and the like, to the
only game" So says Charles c. Sphinx,
publisher Of the Sporting News Of ST
Louis, who has recently returned from
q trip to Australia, with plenty Of
evidence secured first hand to con
vince him that some day the island
continent IS going to be Just as enthu-
siastic over baseball as the United
States is today. In fact he thinks the
enthusiasm with which the national
game" has been accepted in Cuba,
Japan, the Philippines or Honolulu viii
be mild compared to the boom that
awaits it among the Australians.
Mr.. Sphinx had gone to Australia
prepared to return with story that
would not be encouraging to Charles
A. Comiskey or any others who have
been considering an Australian inva-
sion. This was in part due TO his dis
appointment in failure to find that the
game had made any progress in Eng
land when he visited that tight little
island Of cricket and tennis year
ago. He had pictured in his mind that
the Australians were only transplanted
Englishmen anyway, and he was not
very hopeful Of them.
There was also the fact that the
much adFertised trip planned by J. Cal
Ewing Of the Pacific Coast league to
Australia had been called off at the
last minute because the Australians
were unable to guarantee Mr.. Ewing
against financial loss. This failure,
argued Mr.. Sphinx. did not indicate that
the Australians were keen to see a
real exposition Of dhe American game
Cal Ewing had planned to take two
teams to Australia, one made up of
Coast league players. the other Of play
