FAST BOUTS PUT UP
BY ACADEMY
BOXERS

Several interesting boxing bouts
were decided in the tournament held
at the Newark Academy gym
nasium yesterday afternoon. Wiss
won from Gardell in the class
under 100 pounds. 1t was clever
affair all the way, and the former
won only after a snappy finish. Gold
berg, who has captured the school
championship for the past two years
in the 120-130-pound class, lost to Lew
Anger.
The lads put up the hardest kind
of a. battle every inch of the way.
Hertz defeated Hopwood in the 130-
140-pound division. Hertz succeeded
in trimming OBrien in the semi
final. Houghton and Walthew were
the contestants in the semi-fnal of
the -150-pound event, and the
former, after going an extra round,
was awarded the decision. Houghton
also won in the final. Jack Marshall
lost a close decision to Eberstadt in
the semi-hnal of the heavyweight di-
vision. The latter won over Munsick
in the finals. The fifth form is now
leading for the plaque offered by
Mr.. Magic. A wrestling tournament
is being held this afternoon.

limbered up little. The regular two
hour practise was gone through yes
terday morning.
In the afternoon a party of Bengal
performers took a three-mile hike out
to Hermitage an old plantation
with a dilapidated mansion of colon
ial architecture and the tumbled-
down huts in which the slaves once
lived. 1t was a novelty and most
interesting trip for most of the party.
To add to the excitement, the guide
lost his way and the Tigers were
wandering around the various roads
for two hours, during which they COW
cred eight weary miles before they
finally got back to civilization and a
trolley line.
Added to the morning exertion, the
extra pilgrimage" left the band pref
ty we'll worn out, and none of the
boys had TO be rocked to sleep last
night.
During the practise today Manager
Smith intends to have his pitchers
cover first, while Zimmerman and
Swacina field hunts. Joe McGinnity
overlooked many of these points,
which appear trifing, but count
great deal in a tight battle or on a
team of championship calibre. Cy
Barger is several days overdue, but
Smith figures that Cy will report in
good shape and is taking his time
about coming to Savannah. The tenn
perature has not been lower than 81
degrees all winter in Savannah, and
Barger. spent the winter further south
than the Tiger camp.

wheel.
Manager John Chapman, of the Vel
odrome. is not given to pipe@dreams,
except in the matter of six-day cir
cults, but he sprung one the other day
that has got Grenda thinking. Chap
man suggested that Grenda might run
a chain from sprocket wheel on his
handle bars to a sprocket connecting
with the crank hanger that would en-
able him to gain a full second in an
eighth of a mile. AS the smallest
fraction of a second has caused his
defeat, the Australian is using all of
his mechanical ingenuity to construct
wheel along the lines of Chapman's
suggestion.

IFrom a STAFF Correspondent.I


SAVANNAH, Ga, March 13.-Har-
ry Smith decided today that the three
young rocky pitchers, Wendt, Shack
and Kunkle, have had sufficient time
to timber up their arms, and he
planned to have the youths cut loose
with their full line of shoots, curves
and speed.
The Bengal chieftain has heard a
great deal of Kunkles "knuekle
ball' and his change of pace; also of
Wendt's splitter" and Shack's hop
bail" 81 don't intend to let them do
too much" said Harry at the break
fast table. sHll handle each one sep
arately The boys have had five days
of training with proper treatment.
Their arms ought to be in good
enough shape to throw a few curves.
BY bending the ball a little more
every day the muscles of their wings
will be toughened by degrees. After
todays workout I'll be able to get a
pretty good line on the pitching ma
terial of each of the recruits"
Practise Game OF.
There was some disappointment to-
day when Manager Smith announced
that the practise game scheduled for
Saturday had been called off because
Smith was afraid some of the batch
of players due here tomorrow might
overtax themselves and hurt their
wings in the excitement of a practise
game. There are no prospects of any
real action now, until next Tuesday
when the long talked-of sham battles
will be started after the vets nave

ALI Goullet and other Australians, is
helping his fellow countryman. The
clever Paddy believes that such
machine might be practical, al
though he figures that Grenda is
largely handicapped by riding a
wheel that is much too small for
him. Grenda's machine is the same
size as ClarSe's and the latter is a
midget compared with the giant. To
use the arms as well as the legs in
propelling a bike may interfere with
the full use of the legs, but as this
can only be learned by experiment
ing, the freak bike will be built.
There is also the prospect of such
a machine being barred If it proves
successful. In the old days of the
game a Missouri rider named Phil

AUGUSTA, Ga, March 13.-Mana-

seven innings yesterday, and his
Brooklyns practised before and after
the game. The game was rather dull
until the sixth inning, when the Dahl
ems, who were three runs behind,
piled up six runs. rhey won by 0

Six consecutive hits were made off
Curtis in the bad inning. one being a
double by Ty Cobb, who played right
field for the Dahlens. Cobb made two
singles in his other three times at bat
in addition to scoring a run.
Shortstop Bob Fisher was raped on
the index finger of his right hand by
Pitcher Hall in the last inning. This

than a rider, built a wheel along
the lines suggested by Chapman,
and he won a number of races
on it.
Grenda Most Promising.
Grenda is one of the most promis-
ing of the hopes in the racing
game today, and he is very ambi-
tious. He is young, having just
passed his twenty-third birthday,
and he has a very bright future be-
fore him. Like Cavanagh. he
learned while in Europe that the big
gear is the thing, and he is going to
jump from a comparatively small to
a very large one this season. He
has filled out during the winter, and
now tips.the beam at 210 pounds in
perfect condition. He is the biggest
man that ever attained success as a
sprinter. Floyd MacFarland, who
was the giant of the game for
twenty years, never weighed over
200, and usually rode at 100 pounds.
Big men, when they are good. are
usually very good, especially in long.
hard races. Mac" was a wonder in
hard handicaps and races of five
miles or over, and Grenda gives
promise of being as good as the ia
nous MacFarland was in his best
days
AS the field in the professional
class that will compete at the Velo-
drome this year is far classier than
the pros of last season, Grenda
will have to be very good to win the
same honors this year. He took a
short rest after his return from Eu-
rope, and then started training on
the roads. At the present time he is
in condition to race. Many of the
Australians admirers believe that he
will not need the proposed freak
wheel to defeat Kramer this year in
open events.

Big Aft Grenda, the champion
cyelist of Australia, who expects some
day to become a champion in the ar
chitectural field, has a problem in
mathematics just at the present time
that is a trifle too puzzling for his
mathematical development Grenda
was the runner-up in the champion
ship of America and the world S
championship last year. and he lost
both of these titles by rather
small margins. The problem before
the speedy Australian is how he can
gain just a small amount of speed
just enough to put him in front of
the great Frank Kramer, who invari-
ably finished in front by scant
twelve inches in many of the big
races last year.
Grenda is bigger and stronger in
every way than the Yankee cham
pion. Powerfully built on speedy
lines the Antipodean believes that he
is not getting the full result of his
strength on his racing machine.
Not lacking in judgment in his
races, the big fellow is now figuring
how he can gain just a single foot
in an eighth of a mile. He lost the
81, 900 grand prize of July by one foot
last year and the same margin sepa-
rated him from the worlds title also.
Many of the five-mile opens went to
Kramer by the same fatal foot. AL
ways in perfect condition, Grenda fig
ures the. only way in which he can
defeat the wonderful Kramer is by
some mechanical contrivance that will
enable him to use all of his great
strength. The arms of the average
bike rider are undeveloped, and as
matter of fact the arms of a rider are
of little use except to guide his wheel.
Grenda's arms are as strong as his
massive legs, and he is trying to fig
ure out some scheme by which he can

NEW YORK, March ia can
vass of delegates to the annual meet
ing of the executive committee of the
National Association of Amateur
Oarsmen, who will meet here Satur-
day night to decide upon the course
for the next national regatta, is said
to show that the contest for the
course has narrowed down to Bos-
ton and Philadelphia, with Boston a
favorite.
Last year the championships were
held at Peoria, ILL.,, at a distance
which shut out the entry of many
Eastern crews. There is said to be
no opposition to the return of the
