Fulton's Hard Luck.

More than that. the English board Of
boxing control has not yet started seri-
u business operations, which is Full
toms loss again.
O'Rourke has made a couple Of mis-
takes which are working against his
chances of getting a fight with Beckett
or other good ones. One OF them was
because he was honest in the declara-
ton that Beckett ould he easy fori
Dempsey. which personal opinion did
not cement the friendship of the Brit
ish boxer for the American manager.
And then the other thing was Fulton'n
quick defeat of Arthur Townley, which
fact is pointed out by a boxing writer.
who says that it was not wise for Full
ton in putting it across on Arthur
TownleY SO rapidly. Whether the early
X. O Of Arthur was intentional or ac-
cidental we cannot say. but it must
be obvious to the two Americans that
to develop Beckett's respect for the
lanky eX-plasterer."
1t seems that Fulton performed no.
mean feat when he whipped Townley,
who. according to a letter from Mr..
O'Rourke, is a full Pledged heavyweight,
weighing 1870 pounds n standing six
feet one inch. He is a clever man,
too. and in the early part OF the fight
bothered Fulton quite a bit with his
straight lefts before Fred put over the
crusher.
The elongated fellow still has hopes
of getting a big match. and at pres
ent has three bouts on, the first to take
place at Holborn stadium on Oct. 9.
against the Australian champion, Cor
hill. On Oct. 10 he boxes some one in
Paris, and on Oct. 80 meets another
Rriton ct the Holnorn arena.
Accepts Terms for Dempsey,
Mr.. O'Rourke tells us that Albert Hall
Is to be the scene of a big professional
boxing tournament on Dec. 26, Eng
lands biggest holiday. It is hoped that
Jack Dempsey will GO over there for
that date. Edmund Barry is now in
pion to make tho trim for that date, and
we learn from Mr.. O'Rourke that Full
ton has accepted terms for such a.
match.
The manager also advises Dempsey
to the bout. saving that. il he sue
ceeds in heating Fulton, he can kill two
birds with one stone. as it were. for
right after it he can 20 on with Beckett.
O'Rourke SAYS that Dempsey has been
offered a sum equal to what Willard
received for his fight, which is really
some offer in view of the fact that two
Americans are boxing. And O'Rourke
Is quite right, too, when he saws it
will be manv a daV before he will get
such a sum in America for a fight with
anyone, and that it will have to be a
very big purse to get so much in fight

fourteen hits, including five doubles and
a triple. He turned, in a perfect field
ing average for the eight games, the
only White Sox infielder to escape with
out making a single boot or muff. He
accepted 30 fielding chances.
The part he played in keeping Swede
Risberg steady and in trying to swing
the entire Sox team into a smoothly

ter its breakdown doesn't show in the
figures, but it was apparent to any
student of baseball.
At the hour. of Bucks triumph, so to
speak, the fact that he once was canned
by a minor league because of his poor
batting and worse fielding is more than
interesting. Buck started out with the
Northampton club Of the Connecticut
league in 1910, but his poor playing
caused them to turn him adrift. , He
had been sent there by the Cleveland
club, so the Cleveland officials found
him a job with the York Tri-State
league club, There he started to show
the baseball world that he had been
misjudged.

with trembling voice and snow white
hair, Henry Pope is a shadowy figure
on the New England tracks. For over
so years fame and fortune passed him
by still he has never lost hope that
some day he will place a horse in the
turf hall Of fame.
In the old days he raced horses over
the Canadian snow paths and drilled
them through the summer dust in the
expectation Of finding one Of the first
caliber. Occasionally he got one that
seemed to be good enough to play the
part, when the ills that go with horse
flesh called a halt, As a rule, how
ever. they were shy OF racing speed or
manners. but II one stood the test. it
was usually passed along to a relnsman
equipped with the winning habit.
Still the tall, slim, quiet spoken Pope
| never faltered, with a low, even voice,
the kind with which the Irish whis-
| perers charm horses, he told those who
were near him that there were better
days in sight, while at night under a
blanket in the corner of A box stall. he
saw in his dreams the wand of fortune
prompting him to carry on"
So far as the world knows, there
never was hut once when Henry Pope
had a chance to score on the top line
OF the turf, He was u young man then
and living in ottawa, the capital of
the Dominion Of Canada, It was in the
