Calls are coming frequently to the
police station asking that an officer
be sent to kill a mad dog. Four

3 NEW CAGE MARKS
MADE IN THE AMERICAN
Two Team and One Individual
Record Established at
Traymore Hall

American Basketball League records
have been broken quite frequently dur
ing the season just completed, but al
past performances were ecllpsed last
night in the grand finale of the years
play when three new marks were es.
tablished.
The first new mark was made in the
opening game of the night, Grard'
Alumni and Hancock. Although both
clubs had many chances to score, not
a field goal was registered in the Sec
ond half, This was the first time this
has occurred this year.
Rube eastman and Jimmy Brown
next broke the individual high-scoring
record, Jimmy's name will go down
in the record book, but it was only ac-'
complished through the untiring efforts
of Rube eastman. OF course, the other
members of the team, Moorehead, Dun
leavy and Dietrich, fed" Brown. but
it was "Rube" who made the record
breaking performance possible. The for.
mer record of ten made by Powell, Oh
Hancock, was bettered by one.

scratch at his club when but seventeen
years old and was then plus.
He was twenty-six years old, six feet
two inches in height and bronzed as an
Indian. I cannot find that he had any
big tournament successes to his credit,
and l do not think that any one before
the match had the slightest doubt Of
Ouimets coming through. His success
was one of those foregone conclusions
that concluded otherwise.
Never Struck His Stride
The golf played by both was merel,
fair. To use Il, commonplace express
sion, Ouimet never struck his stride. At
the short sixth Oumet was down and
he was l down at the turn At the
fourteenth he was 3 down, but on the
sixteenth he reduced 1t to 9, and on the
seventeenth he sent II down to l. His
chances began TO look good. Winning
the eighteenth hole would probably
have presaged victory on the nineteenth.
But as | said before Ouimet was not
going his real gait and his second shot
rolled off the back edge of the green.
while Tubbs just reached the front edge
Ouimet putted to within seven or eight
feet of the hole Tubbss putt left him
with but three feet to coVer-a half
seemed certain. Ouimet missed his putt
and held out his hand-the game was

There is no better sportsman any
where than Francis 0uimet. and there

he took his defeat well. II seems veY
hard at the time to feel that one has
travelled thousands Of miles only to en-
counter defeat and the blow falls all
the harder when u man has not been
able to summon up his best game.
Ouimet. however, met this extra blow
with his usual smiling cheerfuness.
Speaking of his defeat later, he at
tributed it TO his lack of steadiness. He
said that Tubbss game on that day had
been superior to his. and he deserved
to win" The words of a true sports.

DEMPSEY KNOCKS OUT
BRENNAN IN THE SIXTH
MILWAUKEE, Wis. Feb. 26

MIbN AChIJ W IS, reu' -o'
Just one man, Fred Fulton, stands
today between Jack Dempsey and Jess
Willard. the heavyweight champion of
the world. When Dempsey fights as he
fought against Bill Brennan here last
night. no lesser man. can stand against
him.
Dempsey virtually knocked out Bren-
nan in the sixth round, the referee stop
ping the bout. Very few fighters have
taken better licking or taken 1t better
than Brennan.
In sixty-seven fights Brennan never
had been knocked off his feet and his
record includes a list Of about forty
knockouts. Dempsey knocked him down
four times in the second round and twice
in tho sixth. That ought to be answer
enough to the question, can Dempsey
hit? Just once. did Brennan's robust
wallop find Dempsey for a punch that
stung. Dempsey took that punch and
came back fighting like a tiger.
Brennan's vaunted defense crurpled
like paper before Dempsey's attack and
his deadly left hand could not find Its
mark Dempsey punished the big Chi
cagoan in every round but one.
