CHARLEY WEINERT
faithfully and he will some day
make the boat"
@
Young Bell and Babe Angert re-
peated by request in the semi-fina
bout, but the go" wasn't so lively
as the one put up by the same boys
week ago. Bell won this time as
he won before, but it was very much
of a boxing match. Before the boys
fought all the way. Bell is very shifty
and he fooled Angert repeatedly. On
the previous - occasion Bell simply
slugged and slugged, but he must
have become clever all of a sudden.
AL Reich is being praised for his
easy victory over Jack Davies, said
to be a very good man from Cali
fornia. Reich, however, is nothing
much. He looks good as a winner,
but he has the heart of tame pig
con. He is clever and can hit and
he looks like an Apollo in the ring.
One punch, however and he closes
up like a jackknife and seeks a soft
spot on the floor Reich would make
a good man for Charley Weinert to
fight. Weinert would beat him sure
and he would get a reputation for his
work. It would be great luck, and
Tom Messenger, Weinert's manager
is hot after such match.
@
Weinert, by the way, has several
bouts on. He will tackle Roy Kenny,
whom he defeated some time ago at
Bill Browns, at the Paramount A. {.
next Saturday night, and a week
from next Saturday night he will meet
Boer Rodel at the Broadway Sport
ing Club. Sailor Fritz is also on
Weinert's list, and he will be Kept
busy from now on. Weinert must
fight a lot, for he is unable to get
enough boxing in his training. What
he needs is some big fellow to rough
him; but such a person is not easily
found. However, he will be kept on
the lump, and he will learn more and
improve faster in the ring than he
will in the gymnasium. He has the
markings" but ne must be forced tt
show his real class.

Close students of cycling are trying
to show how Walter Rutt would have
beaten Frank Kramer If the "Bie
German" had ridden from the front
instead of riding from the rear in his
race last Sunday They point ou
that Rutt can ride an eighth in II Al
seconds, which was Kramer's bes
time for the last eighth, and they alst
declare that he can do 3-5 for the
last twelfth, which was just wha
Kramer did. So, they say, If Rut
/ was in front at the eighth pole o.
the twelfth pole, he would have won

as he sees fit. If he elects to rae
from behind, he will likely beat Rut
as well as by racing from the front
! If Rutt can do eleven and four-fiftl
seconds for the last eighth, there 1
some part of that distance in which

the eighth could still be II AS sec

would be able to ride around Rut
and win. Fast time doesn't tell all

what man can do, but it doesn'
give you the winner.

to go to the front just as the bel
