Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

NEW YORK, Jan. 7.-Frank Moran of Pittsburg knocked out Jim Coffey the Dublin giant. in the ninth round of their ten round match at Madison Square Garden tonight
 This was Moran's second victory over Coffey in twelve weeks the first fight ending in three rounds. To- night. however, COffey showed much improvement and it was not until the eighth round that Moran's terrific sma shes showed any effect.
 Coffey was knocked down four times in the ninth round, in each in stance remaining on the mat for nine seconds. The last time Moran almost drove him through the ropes, but he managed to get up within the time. His seconds realizing that he was hopelessly beaten, threw sponge into the ring to avoid q complete knock out.
 During the first seven rounds COf- fey was complete master of the situa ton and it looked as if he would win on points. Moran tried Vainly to land on him but missed many times and in each instance COffey punished him severely with heavy uppercuts. When Moran finally let loose in the eighth it was all his way. The weights were Coffey 2O51A and Moran 19612.

Added Number of Players and Improvement of Coun-

There has been remarkable addi- tion to the number of golf players at the Phoenix Country Club this year and there are many players on the links every day. This is partly due to the fact that the entire course has been so much improved. making play less difficult and lost balls a neglibIe quantity.
 Among those who have recently begun to play golf are Judge Jos Kibbey, Judge F. w. Lewis, MT. Alsdorf MT. Walter Bennitt, Dr. Carson. Mrs. Roy Thomas, Mrs. H. L. Aner. and Mrs. H. C. Bennitt.
 In order to give beginners an op- portunity to learn the game properly Jack Dewey. a professional from Chi cago has been engaged to give les sons for three days of the week, Fri day, Saturday and Sunday. His ser vices were much in demand last week and he has numerous engage ments for this week.
 The construction of an alternate third hole has begun. which will ob- viate the crossing of the canal two times. This one canal crossing has been a bugbear to many and after this new hole is completed, it will be optional to players which hole they play.

FIGHTERS KEEP ON
 GO MOST OF YEAR
Sport Comment From East Says Many Battles
 Fought in Ring.
Republican A. p. Leased wireI

NEW YORK. Jan. 7.-The past year has been one of remarkable activity among the boxers. particularly those of the United States and Austria. Bouts ranging all the way from the four-round decisionless contests to the battle of forty-five rounds or a knock out have been staged in these or ad- jacent countries and while the shift ing of titles have been few, almost every one of the recognized cham pions has defended his pugilistic crown one or more times during 1915.
 Considering all classes of bouts whether short and decisionless or to a finish. the records show that a group of some fifty of the leading pugilists fought close to 500 ring battles during the twelve months just completed. If the list is enlarged to include their opponents. the total number of box CTS ngaged in these contests would aggregate more than one would run into more than a million of dollars.
 A peculiar feature of the record is that the lists show the boxers in the intermediate classes were the ones that fought most frequently. Battling Layinsky. and Jack Dillon. light heavyWeights, participated in fifty y-odd battles with the "Battler," having margin of four bouts over Dillon. Tn the light weight class Charley White Fl eddie Welsh. Ted Lewis, Johnny Dundee and Eddie Wallace were the leaders in number of contests fought Among the heavyweights. Sam Lang ford, Sam McVey, Fred Fulton, Gun boat Smith. Al Reich and Jim Flynn were the busiest boxers The best shoWings. where decision bouts only are considered. were made by Charley White Les Darcy. Coffev and Full ton Frank Moran and Jess Willard battled at a 1000 gait winning every contest in which they engaged, all though the total number amounted to but four fights.
