NeWark'S Pride MOdeStly
Announces That He Is to
Fight Plasterer
By w. o. MCCLELLAN

Charlie Weinert. the pride of New
ark, n. j., and Budapest, Hungary,
emits a plaintive moan from Douglas
ton, Lone Island. Weinert is preparing
to aid and abet Frederick Fulton, the
ponderous but precocious plasterer OF
Rochester, Mimi, in ten-round bout
scheduled for Madison Square Garden
on February II.
The ferocious and formidable Fred
erick is now domiciled at the baronial
estate of Grant Hugh Brown, laird OF
Goshen, n. Y, and brigadier command
ing the defensive forces of Madison
Square Garden. 1t is said that Fred
erick occupies a palatial stsll IN close
proximity to one occupied by horse
that cost quarter million dollars at
bargain sale.
When Frederick gets through his ex-
ercises he wraps himself IN the drapery
of a bathrobe which was presented 10
him by a railroad magnate, or whole
regiment of railroad magnates. Inc
utterances of the precocious plasterer
are printed for the beneht OF the walt
ing millions, =. u.. ;...
his still. small voice to moan. There
will be two people in this fight he
SAWS. "The sages seem to forget that,
and nobody seems to give me tumble.
I'm doing road work and everything,
too. lust like regular fighter.
"Sav. if il is not too much to ask you,
do YOU think that you could mention
somewhere that Charlie Weinert is the
fellow that is going to fight Fred Full
toA?'
"Yes. sub" chimed Joe jeanette, the
colored sparring partner, who is shar-
ing Weinert's exile. "Mistah Weinert
am going to fight Mistah Fulton, and
he suah am going TO give him some
fight. sub. Jes' because Mistah Vein
ert isn't as big as Mistah Fulton amt
no reason he's too small to see. Joe
Walcott was little, but what did he do
to those yere big men? Oh, boy
Jack Grace, the globe trotter, called
again, wearing wistful expression
and a new overcoat. He sighed heavily
as he settled into the guest chair.
ooh, to be young again, with all this
easy kale in the boxing game! signed
Jack Here's this fellow Fulton, yes
terday a plasterer-and fair one, be
cause he could reach any ordinary cell

three or four soft sparring matches

at breaks my heart to think how
hard I had to force my two heavy
weights, Cannon Ball Jack and Asia
Bill Boot, to get n thousand bucks. If
we cleared that much dough in year
we were lucky. And you know what
bears they were, Cannon Ball Jack and
Asia Bill Boot They don't make fight
ers like that any more. They were so
good that jealous people kept them out
OF the record books. but their battles

APPEL DEFEATS
ALAN COREY IN
SQUASH MATCH
No Upsets in Tourney for Eighth
Championship-Riggs
Victor

No upsets marked the tourney for
the eighth championship of the Ma
tional Squash Tennis Association. which
was continued on the courts OF the
Yale Club yesterday.
Only four matches were played, thus
completing the second round. Inc
decks are now clear for real action in
the third round this afternoon. when
eight important matches will put on
exhibition all the prominent contend
ers. Eric S. Winston. the national
champion; Auguste .. Cordier. AndSf-
son Dana, Armin W. Riley and Evelyn
du Pont Irving will be seen in compe-
tition.
The match between John w. Appel,
ir. representing the Harvard Club, and
Alan l.. Corey, the erstwhile star ath-
lete of Yale, drew the greatest gallery
of the afternoon. Both men move the
beam at over 210 pounds, but despite
this weight move about the court with
alacrity. Appel succeeded in eliminst-
ing his southpaw rival in two straight
games by score Of 15-S, 15-9. after
a match that was full of long rallies.
Each smashed the ball to the front
wall with great power, and Kept moving
along at a sizzling pace throughout.
Although Corey> succeeded in making
his usual large number of sterling
"gets" he was often forced out OF posi-
ton. AppePs 'cross-court shots sped
mast Corey like lightning, and the lat
ter found difficulty in ntercepting
them.
Royal f. T. Riggs, the aggressive
Heights Casino player, was compelled
20 eliminate Sterling Martin, his only
other clubmate, in winning his match
Tho scores were 15-5, 10.

Columbia's athletes returned to their
cid haunts yesterday, after two
weeks siege with the examiners. 1t is
feared by the several coaches that some
of the boys lost the decision TO their
textbooks. but all hope for the best.
One of the broad shouldered, deep
chested youths reported for work, and
in reply to the question How did you
do ?" he said: IL don't know; but, be
lieve this from me: Fools ask ques-
tions that wise men can't answer 1t
developed that this star got at least
one "F" mark in his exams.
c. J. Merncr, coach of the basketball

seem, for in a fifteen minute scrim-
mage the varsity walloped the scrub b.

Farrell, who foreswore all athletic
work during the examinations, were es-
necially active. Merner believes that
Farer compares favorably with any
guard playing on any college team. The
Blue and White will play Dartmouth in
Hanover on Saturday night, and on
rext Monday will meet the Green in the
local gymnasium. On February 10 Co
lumbia will face Cornell at Columbia.

around the campus yesterday that her
bert Volmer. the champion, was IN
danger of being declared ineligible, but
nothing of definite nature can be
learned until the final marks are in.
The team will meet the water men
of Rutgers in dual meet on Friday
right. and on February Is will clash
with the c. c. n. Y. team. A special
race at 100 yards, for schoolboys, will
be held in connection with the Rutgers
meet.
Gus Peterson. coach of the wrestling
team. is nothing If not original Some
of his grapplers took on some weight

that a little coal shoveling would do

Coulon had only the fourth and ninth

This Fulton boy has a stall next to
a million-dollar horse. That's what
made me sore. r. brought back to me
the time that me and Cannon Ball JACK
and Asia Bill Poot had TO hang out In
a stable down in Valparaiso. The chief
of police wanted TO see US, but Cannon
Ball Jack and Asia Bill Boot were too
bashful to meet him. So we climbed
into the stable and took one of the
stalls. II was jackass's stall. Think
Of it! Two grand battiers spending
the night in a jackass's stall. while
Fulton don't say that he is not a
fair fighter for the period spends his
evenings in company with horse that
ran second in the Darby. 1t isn't right
The State of Wisconsin has a real
Boxing Commission. ! have often re-
marked that the New York commission,
if il had any thought for the welfare
of boxing in this state, should learn
from the Westerners, who are oper-
ating under rules similar TO those laid
down in the Frsvley law.
The Wisconsin Boxing Commission
has Just placed the ban on Fred Welsh,
lightweight champion, for "shammng
and stalling." lie is prohibited from
engaging in any boxing exhibition IN
Wisconsin for a year. 1t Is about the
first time that Welsh has ever been
disciplined. He has fought number
of weird bouts since he has become
champion, the greater lumber OF them
in New York, but he has never been
called to account
As a matter OF fact, il is hard to re
call any particular move of the local
Boxing Commission TO enforce its own
rules or to do anything for the better
ment of the game.
Shamus Coffey. pride OF County
Roscommon, ireland, and County
Bronx. New York, is starting his come
back tour lie is being groomed as
one of the future antagonists of Fred
Fulton. Since Cofey was twice flat
tened by Frank Moran, he is regarded as
a safe opponent for the precocious plss-
terer. Coffey starts with Bob Dcvere
at the Clermont Club.
The welterweight division is looking
up. Enter another little stranger,
Jimmie Wade, the Kantankerous ka-
muck. His manager wants to post
$4,000 as a wager that Wade can beat
Britton in a forty-five round bout. As
there is no place outside of Afghanis-
tan where forty-fve round bouts can
be held, the money will probably get
rusty before the boys enter the ring.

Annual Ode to February

Last month of and the long, cold drotah;
Last month of 1cinter when the teams start south;
Harry up nd move ong-take jump and then
Bying rs back the gossip of the tratning again
Last month of and the long, pdn;
Last month of uinter, Uhen spring is at the gate
Hurry up more along ridge and glen,
Put in bunkers for ntbtck shot again.

Amt 1t the Grand and Glorious Feeling -

When after you've topped your drive
And played your approach like sin,
You sneak to the edge of the green IN three
And the putt for drops IN?
Or after you're smearsd two shots
your rival seems tao up,
You givs her q ride Nth the brassis and
She drops t,co feet from the cup?
