BY TOM 8. ANDREWS.

II anyone desires to start some
thing" let him approach a group OF
fight fans" and demand the name OF
the middleweight champion.
The same result may be obtained at
the annual convention of the knights
of the road by proposing that all
hands try day labor for a change.
You get an argument in either case,
II depending upon yourself whether
1t il verbal or physical.
There are many who will fight to
prove their favorite Ia middleweight
champion. and to any hobo the WORD
work" means fight.
AS a matter Of fact. ever since
Stanley Ketchell was killed. we have
not had a real middleweight cham
pion: that Is, a man recognized by
press and pubic as the king pin.
There hasn't been such mix-up
since 1887, when THE Nonpareii'' won
the American title by beating George
a Blanche in 10 rounds. and Johnny
Reagan in a terrific 45-ro6nd mill. The
weight limit was then about $50 or
1916 pounds. When Fftzsimmons de-
fea,ed Dempsey he scaled i5l, but he
boosted the limit TO 1853. where II has
remained. Az
Ketchell always respected Bill
Papke. who had beaten him, and nat
urally, when Ketchell was killed,
Papke succeeded him as champion
Then Papke was beaten In Australia
by Johnny Thompson and later 81
others IL became evident Papke
couldn't make 1853 ringside. SO several
laid claim to the title, among them
being Eddie McGoorty. Jack Dillon,
Leo Houck. Harry Lewis. Mike CID
bons, Jim Clabby, George Carpenter,
Dave Smith. Frank Mantell, Jeff
Smith. George Chip and Gus Christie.
This squad has now been thinned
out Carpenter outgrew the class.
II Is doubtful n Dillon or Klaus can
make 1853 ringsids.

Benton Harb0r Boy Has No
Trouble in Slipping Over X.
o. on Dummy MaxOn
RIGHT TO JAW IN THE
FIRST ROUND DOES 1T
Frank Erne Has the Better of
the Semi Finals With Tommy
Linn, of Detroit

Doubtless Dummy MaXon doesn't
care any more for coin than he does
for his right eye. and as he is al
ready deprived OF his ability to hear
and talk. he values his sight more
than unusually high.
Therefore Mayon probably feels
repaid for the short training siege
and the much shorter. oh how much
shorter, fight he went through. But
il Maxon has added To his bank ac-
count. he has failed 10 add 10 his
reputation.
Howard Morrow found the check
that Ed Glassco, Windsor match
maker. gave him last night the. soft
est bit OF coin he has earned in
some time.
Morrow and Maxon stepped into
the ring at Windsor after the Gus
tomary announcements and introduce
tons, exchanged a few blows, and
they carried Maxon to his corner
'all dressed up and no place to CO."
Morrow had planted a blow or two
In the dummy's liver and then had
started a whole garden OF them on
his jaw In two minutes after the
bout had started, Maxon was cold,
right to the jaw doing the final
damage.
Morrow is a great deal better man
than he appeared to be in his former
fights at Windsor. Either he has
improved whole lot or his state
ment that making weight In former
bouts weakened him greatly. Is true.
He showed punch and some nice
covering up in the short session with
Maxon. He had Tommy Ryan, ex-
champion. in his corner, helping
him, which doubtless added to his
ability.
More interest was shown in the
disc ussion of the McFarland-Brewer
bout next week than was evidenced
In the preliminaries. Frank Erne
had the better OF Tommy Linn in
the semi-final. The other two pre-
liminaries were jokes.

OF the real ones who can make the

McGoorty and Ciabby are the class
of the squad. with Chip and JEFF smith

We need a series of boots between
