SAY CURVE BALL
MANIA HAS HURT
PITCHER MAMAUX

New York. May 11-Mamaux of the
like the form that established him as
one of the best right-handers in the
National League last season. The
Dorman Prodigy has started six en-
a victory for the Pirate cause. Yes
terday he had to be withdrawn at the
end of three innings because of gen
eral ineffectiveness. =
David Davies of the Pittsburgh
Despatch declares that Mamaux is
proving ineffective mainly through an
obsession that he can handle a curve
ball successfully. Facts are recalled
from the 1915 season showing that no
sooner did Mamaux begin to expert
ment with curves than ..he began to
lose his effectiveness. The Giants gave
him such a FASTING on one visit to
Pittsburgh that he was suspended by
Manager Callahan day or so after.
1t appears that in that game he in-
sisted on using curve in spite of the
catcher's signals.
When he was reinstated he went
back to his fast one and pitched good
ball Later he again tried out his as
sortment ofN"hooks'' and met horrible
results. The Pittsburgh scribe claims
that in practically every game where
MamauK has been hit hard he was
trying to use a curve most of the
time If this contention is true,
Jimmy Callahan had 1naugurate rule
and post Mamaux to the fact that
every times he starts fooling with a
curve he will draw a fine for his fun.

EDDIE SHANNON OUT

New York, May 11-Benny Leonard
journeyed over to the Clermont A. c.,
in Brooklyn, last evening to show just
what he could do to Eddie Shannon,
a recent arrival from the coast. Eddie
lasted until the middle part of the
sixth round. when his seconds tossed
a sponge into the ring. At that mo-
ment Eddie was resting on his knee
trying to get his wits cleared, for
Benny had dropped him to the floor
with a vicious left hook, assisted by
a right slam.
1t was very considerate of the sec
ondN to have the sign of defeat into
the arena, for Eddie could not have
lasted out the round. This action
was appreciated by the crowd, for it
saved game lad from getting beaten
up unnecessarily.
This makes the second knockout
victim this week to Benny's wallops,
the first one being Charles (Kid)
Thomas, of Philadelphia. There be-
ing no other rival in sight for this
week, Benny will have to be satisfied
with this clear record
Shannon was probably the best OPP

few months. He was fast, could hit

Tom Cribb,' England's
Old Time Champion,
Had Long Ring Career

Today is the sixty-ninth anniver-
sary of che death of Tom Crib the
great English champion, who was the
first to fight an American for the
worlds title. Crib was one Of the
most remarkable fighters in ring
history, and for that reason there is
dedicated to him the finest monu-
ment ever erected to pugilist. It
stands over the grave of Crib at
Woolwich, amid those Of many Of the
naval heroes of Britain.
Crib is best known to Americans
Thorough his two famous battles with
Tom Mo1ineaux, the American negro
and ex-slaye, who was the first Am
erican to seek worlds championship
honors. The first contest between
Crib and the negro was fought in
1910. In the beginning of the con-
test Molineaux had everything his
own way and by the twenty-efghth
round he had almost won the fight
In fact he had decidedly won it for
Crib was unable to respond to the
call of time In defiance of the pre-
scribed rules, Crib was allowed
more time in which to recover and
Mo1ineaux, exhausted, finally fell and
and his his head against stake and
was unable to get up.
1t was generally recognized that
Molineaux had won the victory. The
following year he again fought Cribh
but dissipation had wrecked his
healt hand the negro fell an easy
victim to Crib. Molineaux was the
only man who ever stood up against
Crib who held the championship IT,
tie longer than any other man in ring
history, that is, from 1902 to 1922,
He finally retired undefeated.
