The new year was begun auspic-

the majority of the battles. 1t was a

The punch triumphed in many in

cleverness.
Young Fox, an English bantam the

sBungng Men OF Recognition


EW YORK, Jan. 1O-By beat
~ ing Tommy Burns highly touted
Il fighter, Arthur Pelkey, Gunboat
Smith has strengthened his position
as one of the leaders of the heavy
weight division. But until he disposes
of big Jess Willard the press and pub
lie viii hardly concede him the title
OF white champion.
Willard in knocking out the Buffalo
aspirant, One Round Davis, and more
recently George Rodel, the Boer, has
done his share in bringing the white
hope situation to a point where a bat
Tie between smith and himself VIII sat
lsfactOrfly determine the question of
the best big man in American pugilSm.
Willard occupies a peculiar position
In the game. At times he shapes up as
the best big man who has been I'M
covered in the past three years, and at
others his work is decidedly mediocre.
But the same thing can also be said of
his rival the GunbOaL Smith shows
flashes of real class now and then,
and also pulls an occasional perform
ance that makes him look like an elig-
lble for the "bOnehead" club. Against
Carl Morris the GunbOat fought like
the VerieSt amateur He must have
known that his rushes against a man
Outweighing him so pounds would
hardly help his chances. Still every
round found him taxing a headOn COLI
lisiOn with the gigantic OklahOman,
and gradually growing weaker from
the efforts il cost him. Finally, and it
was apparently a lucky thing for Mr..
Smith, the eagle-eye refree caught
Norris hitting below the belt and
stopped further proceedings Very
fortunate for the gunboat judging
from appearances If ever a boxer
looked ready to lay down and curl
up for the rest of the evening Gun
boat Smith was the gent
Weight is MOrris's Best Asset.
Strange that while Carl Morris is
regarded as a big dub who viii never
know enough of the finer points of the
game to get him anything. he manages
TO give the leading hopes an awful
time when they get in the ring with
him. He was fast wearing Smith
down when he pulled the bone" and
struck the gunner amidships. Not for
punishment had had administered with
his fists, for Carl while possessing a
PAIR OF muscular arms. never seems
to know what to DO with them-but
simply by force Of superior weight and
bulki by leaning on his smaller oppOn-
enr. whenever the opportunity offered
which was half a dozen times or more
in each round.
And when he fought with Willard a
few weeks later Jess fought his worst
battle 1t looked to ne at the time
that Willard could have ended the
affair almost any time he cared to, but
ne refused to extend himself Now and
then he cut loose with a few healthy

would fail to follow up his advantages,
seemingly content to win on points
Evidently the newspaper criticism
leveled at him must have had its effect,
with knockouts since then, stopping
One Round Davis in jig time and the
tough Boer ROdel in nine rounds.
Really After Carpenter.
The Gunboat now announces that he
IS going abroad after Jack Johnson.
If he does take the trip it will probably
be in search of easier game. George
Carpenter is the man ne is really after
johnson viii keep. Jim Buckley, who
manages Smith, is far from a sucker IN
the game of matchmaking and doubt
if he would send his man after the
champion, even were that man in
the mood to consider challenges, while
such soft proposition as monsieur
Carpenter awaits.
Wizards enormous bulk his mighty
punch, and a very good defense make
him look the class of the white division
in spite Of that fact that Smith has a
decision over him in 20 round bout.
San Francisco critics who reported the
fight refused to endorse the decision
Of the referee, insisting that the worst
the giant should have been handed was
a draw verdict.
I doubt if there is a white heavy in
the game VINO can decisively defeat
Willard Jess might not lick the Gun
boat but it is extremely doubtful
whether the gunner could defeat him
either If Willard can be taught to
realize that fighting is a business, and
inject little more aSgressiveness into
his style of milling, I viii not be sur

willard has almost everything
needed except the fighting spirit. It
remains to be seen whether ne can be

game If he can he ought to become
the champion of the world in the
course of another year or two.
As for Pelkey, he simply will not do.

very good judgment in putting Arthur

the McCarty affair Pelkey had not been

DAN O'LEARY PROPOSES
1000 NILE WALKING RACE

Milwaukee. Wis, Jan. 10.-Dan
O'Leary, veteran walker, is promoting
a 1000 mile straightaway walking race
at Los Angeles, Cal, and he wants
Henry Messfer Of this city to enter. The
invitation is like the call of a siren to
Henry and he may accept Henry has
been out of the game for some years,
but he thinks he can still reel off the
Yards with the best of them.
However, his enthusiasm is tempered
by cautiOusness now. He says before
he will accept OLeary's invitation he
viii have to see something more tangi-
bic than a promise of cash A little

CAPTURE REMNANT
Secretary Foster of Giants Thinks It's
Sure Proposition; Cites
Strength of the Lineup.

Y
n Sure Proposition; Cites
Strength of the Lineup.
New York, Jan. 10.-John B. Foster,
Giants secretary, declared today in
his most positive manner that the big
fellows are going to COP the pennant
sure next summer, making the fourth
time. He's so sure about it because
he knows, for one thing, they'll have
the best team in five years-or ever,
as far as that goes.
1--WE are stronger in every depart
ment than last season." said Foster.
The pitching staff which McGraw has
built up is a wonder. In spite of the
fact that several of our big pitching
four did not show up particularly well
in the world series, MatheWson, Mar
guard, Tesreau and Demaree form the
best pitching quartet possessed by any
team in the country.
"Tesreau had an off year last sea-
son, and will be lots better next sea-
son. Demaree also should improve with
a years experience under his belt
Fromme will undoubtedly be a great
deal better next season. He got Oft to
a bad beginning in Cincinnati last sea-
son and never could get properly
started
However. our young pitchers
should be greatly in the limelight next
pect in Schauer, while Schupp, Hearne
and PalmerO are also likely to come
through with lots of stuff.
Meyers and Mclean are the best
pair of catchers in baseball. Our in
field should be much stronger than it
was last season when Merkle and
DOYLE had off years.
I cannot see another team in the
National league that has been
tTengthened enough to beat US out
Philadelphia has q bunch Of hard nit
tiers, but they are slow on bases, and
their only pitchers are Alexander and
SeatOn. Carey is the entire Pittsburgh
Outfield, while the Cubs viii be no
stronger than they were last season.
I do not see how any one can beat US,
and I firmly believe that the 1914
Giants viii shatter the old hoOdOo, and
win four straight championships"
TIL only unfortunate thing about It
is that the Athletics are also likely to
win again. And then, unless somebody
kidnaps Baker, Collins Bender and

May Be Al Right
in Baseball; as a Golfer
He's Almost Hopeless

Los Angeles, Calf. Jan. 1O-Charhe
Van Loan who writes moving picture
and baseball stories. says that Christy
Mathewson is hopeless as a golf player.
In a recent match with Van Loan,
Christy and Charles brought up even
to the 18th green in two. They had
couple Of easy puts for the hole,
when a flock Of crows swooped down
on the green and refused to scatter
after Mathewson and Van Loan had
yelled the conventional "Shoo" several
times This was too much for the re-
nowned Matty and picking up his golf
ball he sent a terrific inshooJ into the
midst Of the flock which then flew
away.
Van Loan and his friend gazed with
speechless horror as MatheWsOn turned
to them for their approval Matty did
not know that he had violated a rule
Of golf, the game in which rules are
almost as sacred as the tablets Of
Noses. Van Loan then hOled out and
won the game.
AT that, I nearly hit one Of those
birds" said Matty afterwards.

one wish to wrestIe with a cute little
Russian, who tips the beam at a scanty
$50 pounds? Ivan MamutOff who halls
from the land of the car, has offered
to wrestIe Fred Beeu the American
eXchampion, who returned to the mat
game, and to give Bell SO per min

is able to keep his shoulders off the

pounds. just half as much as the giant

the offer and says that he has an idea
he can bankrupt the Russian at that.

REPORTS VARY.
Germans Claim Gains in Battle of the
 Aisne.

London, Oct Unusual activity in the publicity departments of the Ger man and Austrian army headquarters has furnished an account of the re- suits of the current battles differing so radically from those from the camps of their opponents as to render the widely divergent statements ir- reconcilable.
 In regard to the battle of the Aisne there is ony a single point on which the French and Germans re- ports agree, and that is that General von Kluck still is going northward, though at a snail's pace, and that he is so powerful that General Joffre has been obliged to admit that the Ger man commander made French de- tachment. dcbouching from Arras, fall back.
 The first Austrian staff report with any details, issued by Field Marshal Potiorek, gives flat denial to the Ser vans' vivid stories of victory, but it is only fair to say that the Serbs are equally emphatic in giving the lie to the Austrian claims.
 The decision of the British admir- alty to mine a certain area of the North sea has given England an add ed feeling of security. While no alarm has ever been manifested here tofore the move is hailed as one shielding the Dover Straits and the channel without interfering with the southern exit from the Thames or the routes to Ostend Dunkirk. Calais and Cologne.

 Notwithstanding these reverses the German line has not been altered ap- preciabIy and it still holds to the north, where the parallel arms of the two great fighting machine stretch toward the Belgian border.
 The arrival of endorsements from the German center makes possible yon Klnck's continued resistance.
 Experts here attribute the delay in the inevitable German retreat to the acquisition of this fresh fighting strength and to the failure thus far of the allies 10 bend the German left inward upon von Kluck to menace his line of communication.
