SOME FREAK BET ON
CHANCES OF BRAVES

New York, June 1.-THE wager made
In Boston recently by William n. Jarvis
and Fred Woodland ranks as one Of the
freakiest ever made since gambling be-
came a sin.
Jarvis is n Brave rooter. Woodland
doesn't think very much of the Braves.
An argument ensued and this bet was
made
II the Braves win the 1915 National
League pennant Woodland will pay 800
to Jarvis. But should the Braves lose
Jarvis will have to do this:
Walk from Boston to Philadelphia and
back. accompanied by Lucy Lee. a pet
mud turtle. Lucy must walk two-fifths
of the way. The other three-ffths of
the way Jarvis must carry Lucy on his
back
very swift mud turtle could cover
two miles a day. Owing to the fact that
Lucy must amble two miles out of every
FIVE. and Is not ranked as a speeding
mud turtle, it looks as IL Jarvis and his
turtle will average about one and a half
miles per day
The distance from Boston to Philadel-
phia and back. a la hoof. is close to 100
miles. Covering an average of even two
miles day II would take Jarvis and his
mud turtle conpa nion just about one
year to make the trip.
Assuming that Jarvis gets about $40
week when regularly employed. it would
mean that he will lose about fifty weeks
salary. or 5000. if he makes the walk.
in addition to losing weight and patience
and his equilibrium.
Two thousand dollars to 800 that the
Braves will win the pennant. Gosh, what
a lot of confidence Jarvis must have In

FANS PUT BAN ON
NO-DECISION BOUTS
Followers of the Fight Game Are
Awakening Want to Witness
Real Battling.

New York. June 12.-The fight fans will
awaken to the fact some day tina,
they are the goats in the no-decision
bouts that are being staged here. there.
and everywhere in this land of no-deci
sion bouts.
Paying real money to see a no-decision
bout is about the same thing as paying
to see a three-inning baseball game. The
affair is hardly begun before it's over.
And there rarely is definite result.
The fan likes to see boxing-but he'd
rather see a knockout. That's the hope
he cherishes every time he takes a
rinGside seat unto himself
But knockouts In no-decision bouts are
about as rare as peaceful nations in
Europe. The fighters get the coin.
knockout or no knockout. So why take
chance?
