W|LLARD-FU[TON
BATTLE UNLIKELY
Tom Jones Not Impressed by
Showing of Fulton in
Flynn Bout.

NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 3l.-Tom
Jones, manager of Jess Willard, left
this city for Chicago, having aban-
doned all hope of staging bout here
between Willard md Fred Fulton.
Jones was far from being impressed
by the showing made by Fulton here
Friday night against Porky Flynn.
The hackers of the local club, how
ever, seem to have disagreed over the
opponent for Willard. Tommy Burns,
who, with Tortoritch, runs the local
club thinks the bout should be held,
as Fulton proved himself a worthy
opponent for the big champion. In
a statement issued today Burns said:
'T refereed the F'ulton-P -Porky Flynn
fight. Fulton beat Flynn fifteen
rounds out of the twenty and Flynn
was very lucky to stay the limit
You will hear different reports Of this
match, but with my experience as q
fighter, | think Fulton fought q splen-
did fight for his first tWenty-round
contest. I absolutely know Fulton
was in no condition for a contest, as
the doctor who attended him told me
after the fight that Fred was very
sick man and never should have
fought. II is well known here now
that Fulton was unable to train for
five DAYS before the contest, no mat

predict with the showing he made in
New Orleans under the conditions he
has the makings of a champion with

big Five" in First Place in
Insurance Bowling
League.

Pinlinights from the Prudential In
surance Company are snaring all the
honors in the Insurance Bowling
League Which Is being rolled on the
Grand Central alleys, in Brooklyn.
The big Five or team number one,
Is in first place with six straight vic
tories. In these contests they have
averaged 967.3 which is the high team
average while the total of 1,025 rolled
on the opening night of the tourna-
ment is the high team score.
This does not end the honors of the
local team by any means, as Herbert
Grinsted leads in the individual rec
ords with the most exceptional aver
age of 225.2 for six games. Grinsted
also holds the high individual score. n
total of 267 Asa Harris ranks second
in the individual records with an
average of 1881 for three games,
while Art Neale. who rolls with the
Prudential team, No. 2, is in third
place, his mark being 1893, for a trio
of games. Second place in the league
records is held by the Mutual Benefit
Life Insurance Company pinknights.

GOOD LEFT HAND
FIGHTING ASSET
Kilbane Says Attelrs Long
Reign as Champion Was
Due to This Fact.

Learn to use your left hand and it
will take a good man to whip you, !"
said Johnny Kilbane, the world s
featherweight champion, recently in a.
discussion on pugilism.
"The fact that he could use his left
hand kept Abe Attell champion for
twelve years. He could do almost
anything with that left. By that l
mean he could snap, jab, hook, swing,
uppercut or feint with it.
Here is a good way to train your
punch: Take the bag and put a
couple of dots, red and yellow on it,
about the size of a silver dollar. Then
begin to punch, and remember that
YOU must do certain things with both
hands Jab the yellow dot as it swings
around. Use a right-hand straight
punch on the black dot and hook the
left on the red dot.
ITS hard for a time to think about
different colors and tho different
punches, but it comes almost with the
return of the bag after you have been
working at 1t awhile. Not only will
your brain respond, but by trying to
land exactly on the colored dot your
fist becomes accurate"

ST. Nick's Seven in Lead
for Another Hockey Title

NEW YORK, Jan. 31.-The st. Nick's
hockey seven appears to be we'll on the

teur Hockey League championship.

The st. Nicks have beaten every team

the Brooklyn club men, and if they
win Thursday nights game most
hockey followers will be willing to
cOncede them another championship.
The Crescents always have put up a
hard game against the St. Nicl1s, and
they promise to give the champions a
great battle.

BALTIMORE STAND
CAUSE OF CONCERN
Monumental City Scribe Shows
That Stockholders Are in
Earnest.

/ {. Starr Matthews, of the Baltimore
! Sun. iS sure the Baltimore Federal
! League stockholders viii get what
i they Want-big league representation
or redress for their losses. The fol-
| lowing pithy article is from his pen:
Despite the firm stand taken yester-
| day by the stockholders of the Balti-
more FederalS, organized ball forces
! i'm some quarters are being led to be
! lieve that the antitrust suits will
| be withdrawn within a few days by
/ Harry Sinclair. This is ridiculous
/ from beginning to end, and Sinclair
| las no more power to withdraw the
suits than a baby. Not until Balti-
more agrees can the suits be with
! drawn.
Gilmore said yesterday that he did
not expect any serious trouble would
| be experienced in convincing the Bal
timore men that the entire peace pact
would work out to the general better
ment of conditions. He added that
the southerners entered into the
agreement with their eyes wide open,
and that they had received as fair
treatment as any of their colleagues.
After reading President Rasin's
statement one wonders how Gilmore
could make such a statement Balti-
more has not received far treatment;
in fact, Baltimore has received moth
ing according to the agreement put
through by the Federal League royal
family and organized ball.
Here are a few things some of the
members of the Federal League got
through the peace pact.
Weeghman was permitted to buy
the Cubs.
Ball secured control Of the Browns.
Organized ball is to pay the Wards
$4,000 a year for twenty years.
Organized ball also has taken over
the Newark park, controlled by Sin
clair.
Gwinner of Pittsburgh. is reported
to have been given a slice of money
Because Buffalo and Kansas City
forfeited their franchises they have
no redress at all.
Baltimore was given nothing. but
merely asked permission to purchase
tho st. Louis National League fran
chise and transfer it TO this city.
Baltimore, of course, was turned
down, despite the fact that the fran
chlse is on the market.
Organized ball forces probably will
sit up and take notice since it has
been announced that the Baltimore
Federals will file their case under the
Clayton act, which was passed by
Congress in 1914 as an amendment to
strengthen the Sherman antitrust
law. A victory under the Clayton
act will enable the Terrapins to col
lect triple damages, and as their
losses In the Federal League amount
ed to about $4,000 they would be
handsomely reimbursed.
Since the Baltimore stockholders
have authorized a fund of $4,000 to
be raised to fight for their rights, the
suit probably will be filed immedi-
ately.

Morgan Likely to Box Kilbane.

Eddie Morgan, England's clever
featherweight champion, is going to
get a chance at the worlds title now
held by Johnny Kilbane. Jack Bull
ger, Morgan's manager, yesterday re-
ceived a wire from Jack Elliott. of
Cleveland. offering Morgan 500 guar
antee. with a privilege of the gate
receipts for a match with Kilbane at
the opening of the new Cleveland A.
C. in Cleveland, O., on February 15.
Bulger wired back that he would
make the match for a guarantee of
$3.50. with privilege, and it is likely
thai the match will be made today.
Morgan is a likely looking feather
weight and he can make the weight
of 122 pounds with ease. He appeared
at the National A. c., in Philadelphia,
Saturday night and experienced little
difficulty in outclassing frankie Nc
Manus, of Boston, Mass, in six
rounds. Morgan was lightning fast
on his feet. He used a left jab most
effectively and crossed with his right.
In which he carries stiff punch.

We were fortunate in securing the

BAY VIEW Primers
MAY CLINCH TITLE
Clean Sweep Over Turner's
Would Give Wheelmen Sub
urban League Honors.
MATCH THURSDAY NIGHT

Bowlers representing the Bay View
Wheelmen will have a chance of win
ming the Suburban League champion
ship ON Thursday night If they sue
coed in taking three games from the
Newark Turn Verein quintet. ON the
Newark's alleys. The Suburban
League season is rapidly nearing the
end and some spirited games are sure
to be Witnessed before the curtain is
rung down ON the 19l5-1916 season.
This series on Thursday will be the
last of the season for the Wheelmen
and they stand an excellent chance of
winning the title. Should they drop
one game, the worst they could get
would be tie for the championship.
Northern Republican bowlers are in
second place. one game each way be
hind the Bay Views. The Northerns
have one more series to roll, that with
the National Turn Nerein pinners ON
the Northern's alleys Friday night.
The Northerns must win all three
games while the Bay Views are drop
ping one contest to tie for the cham
ship. If by chance the Bay Views
drop two and the Northerns make a
cleanup, the Republican Club boys
would be hailed as the title holders.
The Nationals, who are the present
champions, also have a chance for the
honors. AT the present time they are
one game each way behind the North
eners and they have six more games
to roll One series is with the West
no ut 10
National Turn Nercin. This is con
ceded TO be a 10O-to-1 shot. with the
Nationals easy favorites to make n
cleanup of all three contests. The
Nationals would then have To win
against Northerns while the Bay
Views are dropping two games; this
turn of affairs would bring about a tie
for the first place between the Ma
tionals and the Newarks.
The constant postponing of games
in the Suburban League has created
quite a bit of feeling, although the
bowlers have not come right out in
the open and said so. The Nationals
were scheduled to roll West End last
week and this match was postponed
until after the crucial series with the
Northerns, while the scheduled match
between Bay View and Newark Turn
ers for tonight has also been put off
until Thursday.
There is also a battle on for the
individual average prize, with Andy
Hellmann of the Northerns, leading
Jack Byrne, Of the Nationals, by a
couple of points. Hellmann has three
more games TO roll on his own alleys,
while Byrne will have to roll three at
home and three away. The chances
favor Hellmann for the honors.
