FORMER ENGLISH
LIGHTWEIGHT
CHAMP is DEAD

London, March 16-Dick Burge
former lightweight champion of Eng
land, died yesterday of pneumonia.
Burge was born December IS, 1855,
at Che1tenham, England.
Burge was considered one of the
greatest 1ightweights of the world
until Kid Levigne visited England in
1896 and knocked out the English
idol in the seventeenth round. Burge's
last appearance in the ring was in
1914, when he boxed an exhibition
in England with Jack McAuliffe.
Burge got into serious trouble
for s1ugging aman, for which he
served a term in prison. When re-
leased he retired from the ring and
became one of the leading promoters
in England. He staged the Georges
arpentier-Gunboat Smith fight in
London in 1914. Recently Burge has
been conducting boxing benefits for
the soldiers.

DUNDEE-JACKSON
WINNER TO Get
CHANCE At Cline

With the promise from the pro-
motors that the winner will be match
ed for a bout with Patsey Cline in
New Haven both Willie Jackson, New
York's latest fistic sensation and
Johnny Dundee, the famous Scotch
Wop, are working diligently for their
15-round clash which will take place
at the Arena, New Haven, on Monday
evening, March rs. Already, reser-
vations have started pouring in from
many out-of-town fans and the Riv-
erside Athletic club which is promot-
ing the much talked of bout. expects
to cater to an immense audience
Boxing followers throughout this
section of the country are expressing
much interest over this stellar at
traction. It has been the ambition
of many a promoter to sign up this
pair of star pugs for another battle,
but it was the officials of the River
side club who stepped in, and in their
own quiet way, clinched matters.
Ever since that memorable night of
January Is, 1917, when Jackson
kay-eed him in the first round of
a scheduled 10 round bout, in Phila-
de1phia, Dundee has been consider
ably perturbed. This fight marked
the first time he had ever been
knocked out, and consequently spread
quite a blot on his pugiIistic record.

|44,O0O BATS FOR
US. SOL DIERS
lover THERE"

The largest shipment of baseball
bats in the history of the game is
on the way to New York from Louis
vile. Y. M. G. A. officials here an
nounced yesterday that arrangements
were being made for their immedi-
ate shipment to the Lorraine sector
of the western front. There are
144, 900 bats in the consignment, ac-
cording to the announcement made
by the Y. M. C. A. officials.
On every one of the bats is the red
triangle of the Y. M. c. A. They
will be distributed to the soldiers
through the Y. NJ. C. A. huts in the
camps of the American troops in
France. Louisville is the bat man
ufacturing centre of the United
States and is the home of the Louis
vile slugger,'' baseball bat which
was made famous by great bastmen
of the past. There are twelve diff
ferent models in the shipment, and
each one is named after some noted
present-day player.
The major leaguers who have been
+! honored by having the soldiers bats
named after them are Ty Cobb, Home
Run Baker, Iris Speaker, Benny
Kauff, Eddie Collins and others. These
bats are part of the order which was
| placed in January, VIXEN hundreds of
| thousands of baseballs mitts, field
ers' gloves. chest protectors, masks
and shin guards were called for by
the Y. M. c. A. for use in the camps
and cantonments of the United States
and in France among the expedition
airy forces.
For weeks the Y. M. c. A. has been
forwarding equipment, having placed
at the governments disposal, at the
governments request, its comprehen-
sive system for the distribution Of
everything required by the men il
at the front that is not handled by
the Quartermasters Department
Since the government made the Y. M
c. A. the official clearing house the
association has been gradually alb
sorbing the activities of numerous
volunteer organizations working t.
the same end, without the efficien
organization developed by the Y. NJ
IC. A.
The enormous amount of baseball
equipment, together with that for
warded by the Clarke Griffith Ba
and Ball Fund, the Knights of Co
lumbus, the National League ant
other organizations, will soon start

will be greater than any other orga

side bet was mentioned to Collins he
readily accepted terms.
THAT means $4,000 to u.s." he
said, because Fred will knock Will
lard out as sure as they step into the
ring"
AS soon as the match was clinched
Collins left for Minneapolis, where he
will meet Fulton and plan for the
contest. The contract signed by
Collins and Miller calls for the can
collation. of the proposed match be-
tween Fulton and Jack Dempsey at
Atlantic City on May 80. They were
scheduled to box eight rounds Full
ton had signed for that contest.
Where the fight will take place is a
question. Col. Miller is ready to re-
ceive bids from promoters or from
cities where such a match can be
held. He would like to stage the
match in Oklahoma because it is his
native state, where he has all of his
interests, but, says he will not take
the match where he will meet with
opposition on the part of the press
the public or the state officials. Hs
has been making his headquarters
lately at Montgomery, Ala, and PEG
pie there would like to have the
match. New Orleans, Las Vegas
Minneapolis and other cities have
made bids.
1t may be six weeks before he will
decide definitely where to hold the
contest, but he gives positive assur
ance that the fight will take place OF
July 4, even if he has to go to Ha
vana, Cuba. He wants to have tn;
| bout in the most accessible plac
possible. In fact he limited that tn
contest may be held at one of the hi;
army cantonments, because of tn
fact that the government has virtual
| ly given an official sanction to boxini
by placing instructors in all arm
camps, and he believes the bout vii
draw a record crowd at some BIZ
army camp.

FINISHES RACE
THEN FALLS DEAD

Hot Springs, Ark, March 16-Just
after turning off the back stretch in
the first race at Oaklawn Park, yes
terday, Freeman, six-year-old son of
Sir Huon-Merry Heart, was seized
with a hemorrhage and dropped
dead. F. Stevens, who rode him,
was thrown heavily, but escaped with
only a shaking up, and he rode out
his remaining engagements of the
day. Freeman was owned by W. c.
Weant and at one time was fair sort
of a horse.
Jock Scot showed he is master of
Top % the Morning in the six fur

and a half. These two have met three
times at this meeting, Jock Scot hav-
ing won twice, while the other time

for second money. 1t was Top o

New York, March 16-Minor league
magnates are awaiting with unusual
interest the outcome of the meeting
of the International League, sched-
uled to be held in this city on Mon
day, March rs. The conference will
be the second since the annual meet
ing of the league was adjourned late
in December. It is expected that at
the coming session the club owners
will decide definitely whether the or
ganization will continue its circuit
during the season of 1918 or aban-
don play for the duration of the war.
Such evidence as is available in adj
vance would appear to indicate that
the league will operate this summer.
Several of the club owners have
clearly intimated that they are OPP
posed to a continuation of play under
the present unsettled conditions, in
cidental to the war. Others stand
ready to back baseball for another
season at least, but just which side
will hold the majority vote cannot be
stated before the day of the meeting.
If it is decided to discontinue the
schedule there is a bare possibility
that one or more of the clubs will
form new league by joining hands
with other city combinations which
have in past seasons been a part OF
lower classification circuits.
A decision on the part of the Inter
national League to drop out would
be a severe blow to Organized Base

Kansas City, Mo, March 16-Jess
Willard of Kansas, heavyweight
champion of the world, will defend
his title on July 4 in a match with
Fred Fulton of Rochester, Miss,
+ which will be promoted by Col. J. c.
Miller of Bliss, Okla, formerly one of
the owners of 101 Ranch and one of
the most widely known showmen in
, America.
This match was clinched last night
when Col. Miller and Mike Collins,
manager of Fulton, signed a contract
for the bout The contract stipulates
that Col Miller, Collins, Fulton, Will
lard and Ray o. Archer, manager Of
Willard, will meet on April 1, at a
place to be designated by Miller and
arrange final details of the match,
sign articles of agreement and post
forfeits.
This meeting probably will be held
in Kansas City, where Miller will
make his headquarters for the time
being.
Miller and Collins each posted ST.

ing editor of the Kansas City Journal,
" DIS d tIldL luey Will appear
on April 1 for the final signing of
articles of agreement. The pro-
moter has a contract with Willard
which calls for his appearance in the
ring on July 4 at any place stipulated
by Miller, for any number of rounds
the latter may name, in defense of his
title.
It. was not stated what willard is
to receive as his end of the purse, bu;
Fulton, according to the contract, is
to receive $4,000, and a side bet Of
$1,000 is to be made by the contest
ants, this money to be posted at {
later date.
There was a hitch over the mattel
today because the manager of Full
ton held out for a fiat sum of $25, 00'
for his fighter. The promoter re
fused to give this amount, and i
looked for time as though negotia
