PALMER MATCHED TO meet AL MCCOY
Claimant to State Middleweight
HOnOrs Gets Chance With
Man Kurtz Defeated.

Jack Palmer Of this city. who
claims the middleweight champion
ship of New Jersey. will go ten
rounds with AL Mccoy, the Brooklyn
middleweight, next Monday night at
the Olympic A. c.. New York. The
bout will be interesting for several
reasons. Dave Kurtz, the other local
claimant for the championship of the
State, fought Mccoy to a standstill
last Saturday night, and Palmer has
been unable to secure a match with
Kurtz. If Palmer wins decisively
from Mccoy, his claim will need no
further backing, unless Kurtz agrees
to fight him. Palmer has done some
excellent work during the last two
months. He fought rafting ten
round draw with Battling Hurley a
few weeks ago, and has met some
other sturdy boys. On next Monday
night, in the Olympic ring Young
Cardell, of Montclair, will meet
frankie Callahan, of New York.

THIRTEENTH CLASH

matches of one of the international
games which the European war failed
TO stop or postpone until peace again

Among the American tennis follow
ers there appears to be feeling that
the defending team will come out Of
the matches VIGOROUSLY. These ex~
perts, who have been following the
play this season OF both chaIlengers
and the defending players, however,
admit that much depends on the abil-
ity Of Williams to defeat Wilding in
their singles match today. McLough-
lin has been playing in such remark
able form this season that nothing but
victory for him is expected in his
match today with Brooks. Another
argument advanced in favor of the
Americans is that of youth and speed.
but il is also admitted that he Aus
tralasians have the experience which
makes for craft and strategy, a great
factor in winning the cup in former
years.
The American doubles team to meet
Wilding and Brooks tomorrow after
noon is still in doubt. It was an
nounced early today that McLough-
Inns partner for the doubles would
not be selected by the American cup
committee until after the matches to-
day. Mclaughlin, it is said, favors
Thomas v. Bundy. with whom he
won the national doubles champions

H. Behr is the other candidate for the
doubles team with Mclaughlin.

NEWARK 8. BUFFALO O

Cliff Curtis was never more effec-
tive than yesterday. Three scattred
hits We're made off his shooting and
only one of these was a line single
to the outfield. Bobby Vaughn had
"a hot one which E. Jimmy fielded
near the third base line. but Bob beat
the throw. One that Jameson beat
out to Curtis was swinging bunt"
that Cliff just touched with his finger
tips, DETECTING the ball away from
%. Zimmerman so that it went for a
hit in the third round. Only two men
reached third against Curtis. Gill
hooley got that far as the result of
pass in the first inning, while Roach
was walked in the ninth and allowed

Baden Luckx in pinchss.

Bader, the Bison pitcher, who uses
a peculiar motion and a quick return
quite often, was bumped for ten bin
giles by the Bengals, but. the bulb
bursting of the home team did not do
much good. Witter had three safeties
and never progressed beyond first
base. Clarence Kraft was the victim
OF close decision at third base on a
helder's choice that also hurt New
ark's chances. The real bad break of
the game, however, came when in the
seventh inning the Tigers had men
on third and first with none out and
then failed to score. Getz doubled
and Ed Zimmerman singled to right
field. Getz properly held third, as the
ball was fielded quickly, and the
chances were against his safe voyage
to the plate.

future FOR WHEAT
Mullen Says Tiger Youngster

a Conner.

"A diamond in the rough" is I'm
pire Mullen's verdict on Buck Wheat,
the promising young Tiger catcher,
who will probably be called on to
work frequently now that Mike
Heckinger is on the Red Cross list
with a battered thumb. Mullen says
that Wheat is the cleverest ledgling
he has seen in long time. He
meets the bali hard when he con-
meets, and it generally sails on a line.
He has fine throwing whip. but, of
course, he is unpublished and the
rough edges must be worn off. Plen-
ty Of work will do that. Wheat has
not been in the game enough to get
hitting at his proper gait. but you
watch my prediction come true: He
Is the markings of a big league star.
