Ted-kid Lewis is persevering and per-
sistent youth. Nothing daunts him. moth
ing discourages him. He is optimistic In
the face of reversals, and enthusiastic
when success camps on his trail. Above
all, his hatband never contracts nor does
his head expand. He is fired with the
ambition of youth. and will plug along
at his trade at mitt singing until he
attains his goal
Said goal is labeled "Welter-weighi
Champion OF the World" It was mainly
through the efforts of Lewis that the
moribund welter-weight division was re-
vived; and then when he had the undis-
puted possession OF the title almost In
his grasp. he fumbled and lost all-for
the time being. for Lewis is of the sort
that stick TO one task until 1t is ac-
complished. No halfway measures for
that kind.
Jack Britton handed Lewis his tenn
porary setback in his quest for the well
ter-weight crown. Although, previous to
their last meeting. Ted-Kid was ever
ready to grant Brittons request for re-
turn bouts after suffering defeats al
Lewis hands, since Britton gained a
twenty-round decision over Lewis In New
Orleans, Jack has kept clear OF Lewis
as regards just one more battle.

Potomac Junior Eight to Row in Peoples Regatta July
Potomac Boat Club Crew
Ready for Peoples Regatta

The three Potomac Boat Club crews
who will row in the Peoples Regatta at
Philadelphia on July will leave for that
city on the l o'clock train tomorrow
afternoon, arriving there in time to take
a workout on the schuylkill in the even
ing.
The Potomac boys have been training
hard during the past week under the
watchful eye Of Coach Mueller and from
what they have shown in their trials
they should give good account OF them
selves in their races on the Fourth.
The junior eight has been a little off
color since Tuesday, when they were
changed over into the new shell recently
secured, but they will undoubtedly be
able to overcome this handicap before
time for the race and should give good
account of themselves.
The quad was in fine fettle Friday even
ing in their trials against the eight. They
were given a ten-second start and man
aged to keep the lead for the rest or the
course 1t is expected they will have bet
ter luck this year than they did last Labor
Day, when they lost their race on ac-
count Of bad stearing. The additional ex-
perience should serve them in good stead.
The intermediate gig has only been
together a little over a week, but 1t has
been improving daily and snould De aole
to come across a winner in their race.
The Potomac crews will be the only
Washington entries for the Peoples Re
gatta, as the Analostans have decided
not to make an entry.
While it has not been officially sub
stantiated, it is reported from reliable
sources that Clarence Hecox. for the last
five years coach OF the Analostan Boat
Club, will take -op the duties of coach
OF the Potoamc Boat Club about the mid
die of July and will prepare the men for
the Labor Day races on the Potomac.
Hecox has made quite a reputation for
himself as a coach of the Analostans,
having turned out a number of splendid
crews IN past seasons who have won
events in several large out-of-town re-
gattas. His reputation as the father OF
schoolboy rowing in this city is well
known, he having developed a number
OF crews from this class who have de-
feated crews composed of men of more
experience.
Not only has Hecox made a success
as coach. but some years back he was
one of the best scullers in this section
The Washington herald., 1916-07-02

Of the country. In speaking of his pros
poets of coming with the Potomacs he
stated that IL plans were completed he
would pay special attention to scullers,
as that field has been neglected locally
in recent years. II such Is the case, he
will have ample material for that class at
the Potomac Club, for with such men
as Bob Duncan. Don Mckinney, Mig
Immerie, Don Mcdonald, Frank Cham
berlin, Bill Powell and a number of
others he should turn out some stars.
Bob Duncan is particularly promising
and with proper coaching, which he Will
undoubtedly receive from Hecox, he
should easily win the Junior singles in
the Middle States regatta here.
With such prospects the Potomac Boat
Club should surely have a very success
full showing in the big regatta.
Another boost was given the Middle
States Regatta, to be held in this city
on Labor Day, when the Georgetown
Citizens Associations presented the re-
gatta committee with the individual
prizes for the intermediate double sculls
event.
C. R. Zappone stated he was glad to
see the way the people of Washington
are coming forward in support of this
big aquatic event and he hoped to make
the affair one which Washington can

That the Potomac Boat Clubs showing
in the recent preparedness parade was a
Great deal more than a mere assertion
that the members OF that club believed
in the idea. will be realized when 1t is
known that eleven of their number are
now encamped at Fort Myer awaiting q
chance to demonstrate in action that they
are willing to offer themselves IN defense
of their country. Eleven out of a club
of such a small membership speaks well
for the patriotism of the Potomac Boat
Club boys Whether they all are accept
ed for service on the border matters not,
they have shown that they are OF the
right stun by offering themselves.
II other such organizations would fur
nish the same quota OF men there would
be little complaint by the government on
account Of few enltstments.

Ted-kid Lewis After
Welter-weight Championship

and the winner will get the chance at
Britton for the worlds welter-weight
championship.
As matter of fact Lewis's manager
is already negotiating for a match be-
tween Ted-Kid and Britton-so certain
does the Lewis camp feel OF victory over
Badoud. The titular meeting will prob
ably be staged at Madison Square Gar
den although Lewis prefers a twenty
round bout to a decision, where there
can be little question OF the ultimate
victor. However, If Britton insists on a
ten-round. no-decision bout here, Lewis
will accede, for he is confident he can
knock out Britton before the prescribed
limit is reached.
Lewis is scheduled for two bouts at
Buenos Aires. However II is optional
with him whether he is to fight the sec
ond. The promoters of the Buenos Aires
enterprise deposited 5000 in Lewis name
at a local bank before Ted embarked
on the three-weeks' journey. This sum
can be drawn by his manager as soon as
the first fight is held.
If Lewis Is willing to go through with
the second match-which will probably
be with one of the minor lights with
the expedition-he is to receive an sd-
ditional 1900. The promoters are pay
ing Lewis first class passage, both ways,
for three and s. 600 for the two fights
q total of over $4,000.
II is unlikely that Lewis Will engage
in a second fight in Buenos Aires II he
decisively defeats Badoud. Ted-Kid was
satisfied to travel 400 miles TO establish
his right to another whack at Britton.
and he will hardly 1eopardize the oppor-
tunity by tackling a second-rater after
trimming the Frenchman.
While Lewis is sojourning in southern
parts, Jimmy Johnston is pushing q con-
tender for the lightweight title to the
front. In Joe yelling. a Chicago product
Johnston has the likely successor TO
Freddy Welsh as boss OF the l33-pound-
ers. Welsh is hitting the toboggan at
such a rapid pace that 1t would occa-
sion little surprise II he were TO be re-
lieved of his championship inside the
next few months. Welsh has broken
training. and is in no condition TO fight
again unless he goes through a siege
Of several weeks. This is something
Freddy does not care to do. and he will
probably be a victim to the first hard
hitting lad that faces him. Joe Well
ing may be that lad.

with Mike Urane, the Capital City bat
tier, having performed in this city on a

colors OF the fighting cop.
The semi wind-up will surely run the
main bout a hot race for the popularity
honors. Both F1essner and Bosse have
scores OF admirers in this city. Flessner
has scored knock-outs in his last four
starts but there are many who think
that his winning streak will end when
he tackles the aggressive Bosse.
