Mace owned little circle of boxing

He was accepted as the finest boxer
the prize ring had produced. He
was supposed to have taught Slade all
his tricks of the ring, and to have
added few more for the benefit OF
opponents who would be found for the
big Maori in this country.
Richard Fox heard OF the newcomer
almost as soon as he had put foot
on American soil, and he went after
him as an opponent for Sullivan. The
tight was scheduled to come off In
Madison Square Garden, New York,
August z, 1888, and was to be for four
rounds. 1t was the first fight for the

Slade was a big powerful man, but
there mis- claim to ring distinction
ended. He knew nothing whatever
about boxing, despite the tales that
had been told regarding Jem Mace's
instruction.
When the first round opened Sulh-
van charged his man and rushed him
from post to post around the rims.
He beat the big New Zealander to
the floor after eight or ten seconds OF
sparring in the center of the ring.
In the second round Sullivan rush
ed Slade to the ropes, and then.
with a vicious right uppercut, he
caught Slade under the Gin, and act
ually lifted him off the floor. over the
rope, and into the crowd. The New
Zealander landed on his head ana
shoulders. Persons in the house
thought he certainly had been killed.
but he picked himself up, went around
to a corner Of the ring and resumed
the battle.
Sullivan was fury this night No
sooner had the third round opened
that he was ON top OF his opponent
Blows fairly rained on the man from
New Zealand He turned his back
and tried TO run from the avalanche
but Sullivan was right after HIM
With blood streaming down his face.
Slade finally sank to the floor, and
didn't set UP until picked UP by his
seconds and carried to his corner.
1t was one OF Sullivan's greatest
trfunphs, for the crowd that saw the

would prove to be master OF the

may be due to the fact that half the

WANT CHANGES
IN BASKETBALL
Illinois Football Coach Says Basket
ball Scoring System Is Entire
Iy Wrong and Change
Is Needed,

CHICAGO, March 2.-The game Of
basketball, especially as played In the
big Ten" conference, Is wrong, all
wrong. So declares Bob Zuppke, foot.
bail coach at the University OF Illinois.
Sup has a lot of revolutionary
Ideas about the indoor sport which is
fast rising to prominence that only
football holds in the western colleges.
Zuppke is true to his first lovs-foot-
ball--but he has a fondness for bas.
ketball which dates back to his college
career, at the University Of Wiscon-
sin.
Just look at the standing this
year" Zuppke says. Not A single
team has gone through the first half
of the schedule without a defeat. and
II looks as though the champion
might win the title although losing
two. or perhaps three games. Teams
which have noright to be up near the
top are ranked with first class quin-
tets because OF the fluky nature Of the
game.
Rough on Coaches.
From the viewpoint OF the specta-
tor" Zuppke said, basketball Is an
ideal sport. But rom the viewpoint
OF the coaches 1t is heartbreaking
game. Time and again we see a real
ly great team beaten away from home
by an inferior FIVE because the home
team is accustomed to the peculiar
lighting system of the gymnasium and
the resilienoy OF the blackboard. which
makes world OF difference in the
basket shooting between the two
teams The home team has nearly all
the luck IN the long shots. while the
visitors, although they may play
rings around their opponents on the
floor, are in poor form on their bas,
kets and free throw shots.
II would make two sugg estions for
the good Of basketball" continued the
lconoclast from Champaign. Divide
the floor into zones and give the team
which works the ball up under the
basket by teamwork three points fol
a goal while random shots made from
outside the goal zone should coun
only two points. I think the score o
the two games played between twt
teams should be added and the team
with the high total be given credit TO
winning one game"

teen service has decided that his
name and address had best not be
given.
The publishing of the story of this
soldier who hadn't a relative or a
friend to be notified in case of his
death brought in scores of letters to
to offices of the Gulf Division of the
Red Cross.
City girls, small-town girls and
girls living on R. F. D. routes wrote
in for his address. Several older
women with relatives in France want

All of them wanted to write and send
him gifts.
Maybe the canteen worker will
write him that so many women in the

are interested in him. Then he will
no longer be the "lonliest soldier"

SERVICES AT CHAPEL HILL


Mr.. Fred H. Montgomery. one O,
the leading members of the Sardi
bar and one Of the most PROMISING
young men in North Mississippi
went out to Chapel Hill church las
Sunday to talk the war, and especial,
was savings stamps. He was accom-
panied by Mr.. Bruce Newsom. Mr.
Jas. Cuff, Jr., and the Editor of The
Sentinel.
The pastor Of the church at Chape
Hill, Rev. Mr.. Bullard, like all the
faithful and farseeing ministers of the
country-and it is perhaps not amiss
here to say that the churches through.
out the land are Loyalty supporting
the President and the war-said he
would forego the services for the
talk in the interest of the Govern
ment and for the prosecution of the
war. Presiding Elder Lipscomb of
that district was on hand, having the
day before held the quarterly con-
ference and it was his hour to de-
liver the eleven o'clock sermon. But
he gladly gave his endorsement to
the purpose of Nj. Montgomery's
speech. Mr. Montgomery was pre-
sented by The Sentinel Editor in a
very few words. He covered fully
many phases of the war and the
righteousness of this country's cause.
He appealed to the people there. as
he said they were being appealed to
in every part of the country. to get
actively and whole-heartedly into the
war. He said that from what he had
heard of the good citizenship of that
community that he felt that there
would be no slackers there. He pre-
sented the war stamps proposition in
most convincing, business-like man
ner. The most generous expressions
were heard of his address.
Presiding Elder Lipscomb followed
Mr.. Montgomery with a sermon burn-
ing with patriotic fervor. 1t was a
appeal to his hearers to get
VlSlon-to get vision for higher
and better things, vision that meant
for a full discharge of duty as citi-
zen, vision that made one see that
no church or people could prosper
who were not loyal TO their govern
ment, vision that made one see that
America was sought by the forefath-
ers for freedom of worship and free
dom of thought and that the funda-
mental principles for which the Rev.
fathers battled were as
sailed by the Kaiser in this war.
m chapel Hill has splendid history.
The Methodist church there has been
as light upon a hill. There are no
better people in the world than those
that worship there. The writer en-
ioyed being there He enjoved get
ting back to the days, of his youth
where God was worshiped in the
country church. May the good people
of that community ever prosper and
may the richest things in life be vet
in store for them.
