was entitled to the 10 per cent COM
mission, which, according to his fig
ures, foot up to $1,000 the amount
| named in the suit. In telling his
story, Chapple says that Uppercu
paid $4,000 and a percentage of the
gross receipts, amounting to $4,000,
which would make the sum total
| paid for the Garden for the week In
question an even $4,000. With $4,000
the rent price, why, 1t is easy to
figure out Chapple's share, which is
10 per cent. or $4,000. The only thing
remains now is to get it.
C
The Garden people have held the
upper hand in big sporting events
for some time, but it is said that WILL
lam Wellman, the present manager,
put his foot into 1t when he came out
| and bucked Billy Gibson, who Is con-
| Quoting the fights in Madison Square.
That move, 1t Is believed, has Grabbed
the Gardens act, and those who con-
troll it will hereafter figure in the
renting of the building only when
big sporting events are held there. If
that is not satisfactory, the Garden,
it is said, will be passed up. Unless
Gibson or some other person who has
done at least something for the good
there will be no more fights in the
Garden, for 1t is declared that Well
man will not be granted license,
which is absolutely essential to con-
duct boxing shows.

Banty Lewis, Joe Sachs, his repre-
sentative, and Joe Benedetto, mana
ger of Kid Boonton, talked the pro-
posed Lewis Boonton bout over in the
Evening Star office yesterday after
noon. All directly concerned have
agreed to go over to Bill Browns
gym in New York Saturday night and
sign the final articles of agreement
calling for ten-round bout at 1877
pounds. Articles dealing with the
weight question were signed yester-
day, and Harry Stone, the official
stakeholder, now has 800 in his pos
session-$50 from each side. Both sides
appear to be confident, but those who
are very good judges say that Lewis
will come out a winner.
g
Although Lewis, it is believed, is
giving away at least five pounds to
Boonton, Banty. it is said by those
very close to him, knows what he is
doing. He thinks that he can beat
Boonton and he didn't really care
what he weighs. He wanted to force
the Kid into making 125 pounds ring
side, and he might have got com
promise at 1875 pounds ringside if he
wasn't so anxious to clinch the match.
When Benedetto said that Boonton
weighed 145 pounds with his clothes
on and couldn't do better than 127
pounds ringside. Lewis said imme-
diately well. I'll make the match il
you bet $780," Benedetto said he
would and Lewis appeared to be
| tickled.
c.
I don't know how true it is, but 8
| good friend of Lewis told me that
Banty and his hackers were so afraid
that Boonton and his friends would
not make the match that they came
to The Star office prepared to allow
Boonton to weigh in at 1870 pounds
ringside. There must be something to
this, for after signing to weigh moi
more than 127 pounds ringside. Lewis
said he would fight Boonton if the
Kid didn't weigh more than 1S(
pounds on the night of the contest
but he also said that of course he
would take Boonton's forfeit, If tn,
Kid was overweight, which would

The team has lost only one game
out of fourteen played. The lone de-
feat was sustained at the hands of
Central in the first court battle for
the city championship. The balance
of the season has been one triumphal
march for the prep" school team.
Among the more notable victories are
those over Rutherford on the Ruther-
ford court, where Central met dis
aster, and Harrison High School,
which defeated Dickngson High
