MISKE-DEMPSEY
 BOX SLOW DRAW
Battle Between Heavy. weights at St. Paul Fails
 to Excite Audience.

St. Paul, Minn., May 4-Billy Miske and Jack Dempsey fought tame 10- round bout here last night Neither fighter gained commanding lead and poor draw was the general yer dict of newspaper critics.
 Miske outboxed Dempsey most of the fight with the exception of the seventh round when Dempsey, sink ing hard left into Miske's stomach, and putting a right to the jaw, evened up the battle. Up to that time Misk . had claimed three rounds and Dempsey two and one was a draw.
 Miske was plainly worried in the seventh but he held his own the rest of the way. The fight was without a spectacular feature Miske continual ly resorted to infighting and managed to get inside of most of Dempsey's blows.
 Miske landed only one hard blow in the fight, a right cross in the third round. Dempsey scored in the sec ond, third and seventh rounds and his supporters seemingly were in- clined to give him a shade for this work.

 George La Blanche, ''The Marine % was the man who knocked out the F1mmortal Jack Dempsey in San Fran cisco in the thirty second round with the pivot blow and because of the unhappy ending of that ring battle the 'pivot'' was forever barred from tkhe squared circle.

 Although La Blanche weighed only .15O pounds, he met and defeated many of the best fighters of his day. La Blanche passed away at his home here yesterday.

FISTIC HISTORY

Ninety-nine years ago today, May 4, 1919, Jack Randall defeated Jack Martin in nineteen rounds and Tom Spring defeated Jack Carter in seven ty-one rounds at Crawley Downs, Eng land. Rarely in ring history have two such important bouts been staged in the same ring on the same day.
 Randall, ''The Nonpareil," and Mar tin fought for the middleweight cham pionship, the former winning in for ty-nine minutes Randall was never defeated, and retired from the ring tn 1921 with his laurels still intact.
 Carter then claimed the English championship, although old Tom Cribb was still the nominal champion. and his bout with Spring was to decide which of the pair was to become Cribb's successor. It was a long and ,ferocious bout, and was witnessed by Archduke Maximilian of Austriat and many other members of the F1ench and English aristoeFacy.

TENNIS STAR TO
 WORK IN GARAGE
 TO HELP SOLDIERS

Rolling bandages, cu1tivating gard ems, selling Liberty Bonds or knitting may all be perfectly good kinds of war work, but they don't appeal to Miss Marguerite, Davis fSt. Paul, woman tennis champion of the north west. She has gone to France to take a job as mechanic in a garage, along with several other young women who have volunteered for various kinds of war work.
 There is no doubt about the fact that she will get her hands dirty and some girls might be dubious about trying to find out what ails car when l it develops internal troubles. How | ever, Miss Davis has worked in a garage so that she knows what to expect and she has no illusions, either, as to the kind or the amount of work she will be called upon to do.
 Some time ago speaker in St. Paul told of the difficulties the Amer ican Fund for French Wounded had in getting its cars properly attended to in garages. The immense demands of the military branches take prece- dence over everything else Conse- quently the motor service of the A. F. ] F. w., which has assumed consider able proportions, was in danger of being crippled. AS this speaker told of the need for mechanics and the difficulty experienced in finding them in France. Miss Davis got her big idea.
 why can't I go?" she asked. The speaker could do nothing but take such a volunteer, so Miss Davis went to work in a garage. Now she knows just what to do to that thingumbob under the hood when the engine c0usn5 twice and dies a lingering death.

HARRISON CAME IS CALLED OFF Playing of Proposed Contest "DeeIaed Inadvisable" by
 Owner Ebbets.

New York, May August Herr, mann, president of the National Base ball Commission, and John K. Tener, president of the National League, were notified yesterday by c. H. Eb- bets, owner of the Brooklyn Nationals, that it had been deemed inadvisable'' to play the game advertised for next Sunday at Harrison, N. J., between the Dodgers and the Phillies.
 This decision, it is believed, resulted from intimations that International League officials would consider Sun day baseball in New Jersey near New ark as invasion of their territory.
 'In conference with Hampstead and Ruppert yesterday, we deemed it in- advisable to play game at Harrison next Sunday, as advertised in the papers, pending later consideration of the subject" read the telegram sent to Hermann and Tener by Ebbets.
 Chicago, May 4-Inside details of the part the major leagues and Ma tional Baseball Commission played in financing the old International League when that organization was in dis tress in 1914, during the war with the Federal League, were revealed last night by August Hermann, chair man of the National Commission, who said that approximately $30,000 wat loaned and contributed to the League to enable it to meet it's obligations.
 Chairman Herrmann's statement was made in reply to the protest by John H. Farrell, president of the new International League, against the pro- posed plan of the major leagues to play Sunday games at the former Newark Federal League park at liar rison, N. J., which is in the five-mile limit of Newark, now member of the new International.
 President Farrell sent me a check for $3,O00 as full payment for claims against the old International League, Hermann said. But there still is an unpaid amount of $S,70O. This sum represents money which the National Commission and the major leagues loaned to Edward G. Barrow, who was then president of the International, to meet certain obligations during the latter part of the 1914 season.
 President Johnson of the Amer1- can League personally loaned Barrow ss.2OO in September of 1914, and later the National Commission reimbursed him. The American and Natlonal Leagues, in addition to the loans, con- tributed s5,Oo0 and $10,O00 at various times to support the league"
 Chairman Hermann saiF he did not know whether Barrow, who since has become manager of the Boston Americans, had acquainted Farrell with the exact financial obligations of the old International organization.

NO RUNAWAY RACE
 IN BIG LEAGUES
Weaker Clubs Expect to Give Leaders Tough Bat
 tie This Season.

New York, May 4---If the records of past seasons can be accepted as a criterion, the unusual performances of the leading clubs in the major league pennant races to date do not necessarily indicate a runaway win ming of the National and American League championships this year. While it is true that the New York Nationals and the Boston Americans set most remarkable pace during the first two weeks of the season there is nothing in the history of either league to substantiate the be- lief that these two teams will con tinue their extraordinary percentage of victories and thus clinch the pen nants hong before the schedules are completed.
 Several unusual factors enter into the situation this season, one of which is the fact that the major leagle play opened later than has been. custom ary in past years. While the New York Giants completed the month of April with il victories and but one defeat and Boston lost but two games out of 13 played. such a high winning percentage can hardly be maintained with succeeding shifts of the circuit teams. Opposing combinations are certain to grow stronger with the ap- proach of warm weather, increasing practice and competition. Further more, the initial East vs. West clash is likely to develop closer struggles anli a broader distribution of victo- ries.
 If such was not the case, however, statistics based upon the play of the clubs in both leagues would appear to bear out the opinion that, remark able and impressive as the spurts of

San Francisco, May 4.-Tommy Burns, former heavyweight champion of the world, yesterday visited the British recruiting office here and en- listed in the Canadian military forces. Burns is a French Canadian. His right name is Noah Brusso.

He defeated H majority of the white heavyweights of the time, including Philadelphia Jack O'Brien, Marvin Hart and others, but drew the color line against Sam Langa ford. On July 4, 1907. he knocked out Bill Squires, heavyweight chan- pion of Australia, in one round at Colina, Cal On December ?, 1907, Burns knocked out Gunner Moirs champion of the world.
 Burns lost his title to Jack Johnson in 14 rounds at Sydney, Australia, De-. cember 26, 1908. Burns was a clever boxer and fair hitter, but lacked height and weight.

The New Haven Journal-Courier this morning has the following to say on the now famous boxing wrangle in New Haven:
 The poor old boxing game continues to be target for hard knocks. Joe MulvihilPs retirement and his conse- quent criticism of conditions in New Haven seems to have caused quite a flare in state sporting circles and to- day the fans are wondering what's next in order. Promoters and fans in general make no secret of the fact that there is no time like the present to eradicate, where possible, the eX- isting evils or allow the game to go to smash. In many quarters the opin- ion was expressed that conditions are far worse just now than at any time in the history of the sport. What the fans demand, according to the com ment now current on the street, is a complete airing of the entire muss so that they may gain a better under standing of the inner working of the game.
 Thomas O'Donnell, one of the pro motors connected with the recent Tendler-Jackson scrap, broke loose yesterday with a few remarks which practically confirm Mulvihill's state ments of the day before. He said that it was an outrage to have one man run the game to suit himself and further expressed the belief that the man he accused would have to be eliminated if the game is to live.
 Why, it's a shame, an outrage, for f0-- oh state of affairs declared O'Donnell. You know, as well as everybody else, that the sporting editor of an evening publication has been more of a detriment to the sport than the en- tire New York combination put to- gether." He raps some of our local promoters for no reason at all but when he has a financial interest in a show he changes his tune. He makes a whole lot of other peoples mistakes but is absolutely blind to his own. And some of the bouts he has arranged himself would make the ordinary man blush with shame.
 Where does he get off to rap the invasion of New Yorkers?" continued O'Donnell. He's an out-of-towner himself As for myself I was born and bred in New Haven and fell well within my rights in' applying for per mits and running shows to suit my self. He tried his dictating stunts on me but found they didn't go.
 My only suggestion is for the fans and promoters to completely ignore this 'camoufiage artist and you'll see change here. His articles on the boxing game should convince the or ,dinary fan that he's protecting his pocketbook instead of the boxing fan And they'll all tell you the same"
 ODonnell further states that it was to be regretted that such statements had to be aired inasmuch as it cast a wholel ot of suspicion over the entire newspaper profession. He had noth- ing but praise for the Journal-Cour- f1er, terming it the best newspaper ir New Haven with sporting page that printed facts, unguided by suggestions from the selfiesh promoters.

the Giants and Red Sox have been, they cannot be maintained at any thing like the speed shown during the
 first two weeks of the season. AL though the New York Nationals win ming percentage on May 1 was .917, the highest on record for the past ten years, and the Boston Americans .S46, the second highest in the American League for the same period, the fact stands out that very few of the clubs which have led the league on May 1 also closed the season in first place.
