Lyons experience has taught him
that there are many holes that can

drives, whereas the same number Of

SPORTOGRAPHY By Gray,

MO matter what happens as regards
the ownership OF the Boston
Braves next year, the team will be a
strong one. Hank Gowdy, who will
be a tremendous drawing card, is
coming back from France to resume
his post as catcher. Rabbit Maran-
vile. who is coxswain on the battle
ship Pennsylvania, also will be on
hand to take up his position as
shortstop. The Braves will regain
the services Of Powell. Kelly and Rot

summer. OF course, Charley Herzog

BIRTHDAY ANNIVERSARY
OF JOHNNY LaVACTx.
Tomorrow viii be the 46th birthday
anniversary Of Johnny LaVack, one
OF the greatest featherweights OF the
modern ring. Johnny was born in
Montreal, December p, 1872. He
fought his first ring battle in Sagi-
naws Mich. in 1890, defeating a boxer
named McNally in 10 rounds. Just
a year before another famous French
Canadian, George Lavigne, afterward
champion Of the world.

George SiddOns, the Iron
Man." II rounds to a draw. LaVack's
next fight was in Peoria. where he
whipped Pat Shea in IS rounds. In
1898 he defeated Harry O'Connor in
Columbus. King Kelly in Toledo, and
Jim Atella in Pittsburg.
For a year or two thereafter he
fought principally in Cleveland. win
ming all of his bouts with the excep-
ton of a u round draw with George
Siddons and a 25 round draw with
Mike Gallagher. In 1896 he fought
two draws with SOlly Smith, the Los
Angeles fighter who soon afterward
became featherweight champion by
whipping George Dixon. Johnny also
defeated Fred Green in Toledo and
fought a 25 round draw with Aus
tralian Billy Murphy. the eXchampion,
at Lexington KY. In 1897 the little
Frenchman fought draws with
Tommy Dixon in Rochester, Eddie
Barry in Toledo, and Joe Bernstein in
His last bout was with
Joe Leonard. whom he fought p
rounds to a draw in 1900. Although
two or three decisions were given
against him during his career, Johnny
was really never oUtclassed or de-
feated. He was never entitled TO
anything worse than a draw. nor
against good men. to anything bet
ter. He lacked the punch that wins
victories, but he was clever enough

Might not be a bad idea for edifi-
cation Of fans for referees at Fort
Bliss to have a secretary at hand
who is also a stenographer and run
up a blackboard bulletin explaining
decisions. The crowd is generally
heard considerably after a decision,
but the poor referee don't get q
listening.
Such explanatory bulletins IN sup
port OF decisions would be interesting.
For instance, when asked Friday
night why he didn't give Jack Arnold
the decision against Kid Greaves.
! -Parson' Wedge promptly answered;
Arnold lOafed too much" There are
lot Of boxers hereabouts who don't
seem to understand that stalling is
just grounds for having a decision
given against them.
X =
'Puggy" Duquette is one gentel-
manly little boxer. As many times as
he knocked Atencio through the ropes
so many times he tenderly pulled him
back and Strengthened him up to
continue battle. Atencio went down
four times in the ring and three times
Duquette came right through just like
knighthoOd was in flower" and as
sisted Atencio to his feet. The fourth
time "Puggy' permitted him to be
counted out thereby completely shat
tering the record for kindness TO his
opponent.
The battlers at Bis seem to have
conceived the idea that they should
shake hands at regular intervals.
Whether this IS for effect on the ref
cree or just grandstand stuff for the
fans, does not always appear. In most
instances it is quite useless In cases
where one boxer assists another TO
his feet il IS a foul which under some
circumstances might be a distinct dis
advantage instead of a popularity win
ner. After q boxer is knocked out or
discontinues, a feeling Of good will is
proper enough, or as in the case Of
Duquette helping Atencio into the ring
when he went through the ropes. Even
at that a wise boxer will rest and let
somebody else jerk his opponent back
through the ropes.
When Fred r. Wedge called the
bout between Jack Arnold and Kid
Greaves a draw, Jack Arnold protest
