YOUNG FOX STOPS RICH

Short-iived bouts were the RUE

at the Central Institute, and the fans

main bout of the evening between Kid
Beck, of Elizabeth and George Wal

the side of the Elizabeth fighter The
referee stopped the fight in the third
round, when Wallace was so groggy
| that a knockout seemed imminent
From the start of the bell Beck was

left with good effect. Wallace failed
to land blow in the first session. Tine
Elizabeth lad poked his opponent into
submission in the second stage, and
i the Hoboken mans nose bled free

telling blow in this round. The next
session was also one-sided. Beck en-
ploying his straight left and a right
swing. The one-two smashes of Beck
made Wallace groggy, and a hard
left sent him to his knees. Then Beck
shot over a volley of right hooks and
straight lefts, and Referee Ross called
a halt to the hostilities.

Giants and Braves Rest Today
and Chicago Has Another
Chance.
What the Day May Bring
Forth in National League

Chicago was the only one re the
big Four" in the National League
| TO gain yesterday The Cubs beat
the Cincinnati Reds and picked up
half game on their three rivals,
but the leading Giants are still -four
full games ahead of their fourth
place rivals.
New York's chance to widen the
gap between themselves and the Bos-
ton Braves was a failure. The Giants
were held to a IL draw in a hard
fight with the Pittsburgh club. De-
maree's comeback was particularly
pleasing to New York fans. He al
lowed twelve hits but was never bet
ter in the pincles, for twelve of the
enemy were left stranded. The game
went eleven innings.
Neither the Giants nor the Braves
are scheduled today Both are tray
cling east and have their chances
to get in a little rest. Boston has had
two day layoff which should bene-
fit the pitching staff immensely.
The Giants will play at Brooklyn
tomorrow. while Boston opens a series

Practically all the favorites sur

Francis Ouimet. of Woodland for

Garden City; d. Clark Corlran. OF
Baltimore, and Joseph Schlottman, of
Detroit, were grouped in a quadruple

further down came Jerome d. Trav-

be the better appreciated when it is
said that twenty-four players re-

At EVERY STAGE
Orange Youngster Gets POpu-
lar Verdict Over Tommy Stage
in Ten=ROund Bout.

Kid Boonton, of Orange, gained the
popular verdict over Stage, of Phila-
delphia, in a ten-round bout at the
Olympic A. c., New York, last night.
Boonton was in prime condition, and,
with Jimmy Johnston, his manager,
as his chief second, the Orange youth
won by a wide margin. At no time
was the situation In favor of the
Quaker City boxer. In fact, Boonton's
performance pleased the spectators to
the extent that he was matched to
meet Harlem Tommy Hopkins In a
ten round bout at the same club in
two weeks. 1t will be remembered
that Boonton and Hopkins met some
time ago in a six-round bout, and
Boonton was an easy winner.
The contest last night was an in
teresting one but it was apparent
from the start that Boonton was toe
| strong and clever for his adversary
The Orange boys left jab worked tc
perfection, and on one occasion he
had Stag in a bad way, spinning him
completely around, Stage was game.
however and this enabled him to stay
the limit.
Boonton showed no effects of the
bout, and will continue to train for
his bout with Mickey Donley. which
will take place at the Central Insti-
tute next Monday night.
Johnny Howard. of Bayonne,
knocked out Jack Hanlon, of Brook

bell rang for the third session the
Bayonne fighter landed a terrific right
to the jaw that sent Hanlon into

something that he has lacked ever
since he came into fast company fol-
lowing the consolidation of the Motor
drome and Velodrome interests last
year. But the breaks will have to be
in Spearss favor if he is to be a win
ner. Bob can ride in just one way
and that chance does not come to him
very often. If Long Bob" can sand
witch himself in between Rutt and
Goullet and come off the leaders,
wheel in the last twelfth he may win.
He cannot win from the front. He
demonstrated that Sunday. All sea-
son Spears has been urged to ride
his races from the front and he has

win from the front He tried it in
