Manager Stallings is said to have Of

Coombs turned him down.
Blackburne has had a varied career.
He started in 1910 with the Chicago
White Sox and looked like one OF the
coming stars. He was weak at the
plate, however. and his bum hitting
kept him out of the regular lineup.
He remained with the Sox three sea-
sons, went to Milwaukee in 1913, but

Butts says that in the frst, second

sey rather roughly, but that from the
beginning Of the fourth on everything
will be in Jacks favor.

school, was PENIS dependable high
hurdler for the freshman.
Dave Wilson. former Central High
! star athlete, after playing a great
football game for the Marines last
fall, entered George Washington,
where he starred on the basketball
team.
Tech athletes have been blazing the
way. Ben Carpenter, was one OF the
best sprinters among the freshmen in
college this year. He is said to have
turned in ten fat for the hundred for
Jack Moakley. OF Cornell. Dave
Pfeiffer, another Tech lad at Lehigh,
held down the pitching position with
the varsity. Arthur Carr, still an
other Tech athlete, won his letter in
the two-mile event for Lehigh this
year.
Raymond Peck, former Western
High athlete. was chosen ATl-America
basketball guard this year. and in ad-
dition was named captain Of the Penn
varsity team for next season. Penn

winter. At the Naval Academy two
more Western lads starred. John

BRITISH FEAR AMERICAN
BOXERS WILL HOG TITLES

British boxing promoters and
sporting writer's are beginning to
view with alarm the prospect of
America, already dominant in the
game, soon making a successful con-
quest Of the titles in every division.
Jimmie Wilde is now practically the
only boxer who has been able to de-
fend a championship against the
Americans, and the British lament
the fact that the game is not receiv-
ing more serious attention at home.
One writer says:
when she has got her boxing
house in order, America will be after
every worlds championship which
she has the slightest chance Of win
ming. 1t will be little to our credit
IL we allow her free passage to these
distinctions. From merely local COM
petitions we must arise to inter-city
Affairs, such as London versus BIr-
mingham. 1t is not so many years
since the rivalry between these places
was as keen as a razOr's edge.

Here's What Dempsey
Eats At Camp.

TOLEDO, Ohio, June 30
What does a great fighter eat
when the time is nigh? This is
the little speech of Nick Alba
nese, the Dempsey food special
list. With his charge a few days
away from the fray that would
mean a million dollars, Dempsey
gets dry toast three times the
day. All meats are steaks. They
are broiled, and when they come
off the fire they are mopped off
with cloths to eliminate the least
sign of grease. No salads, no
watermelon, no cake, pies or pud-
dings. Poached eggs In the morn
ing, mashed potatoes when he
pleases, but they must be
mashed. Iced tea-hot drinks
strictly taboo.

Killifer has been telling Fourier
that il he would bunt more and also
just meet the ball with his bat once
in a while like Sam Crawford does, 1t
would improve his hitting consider
ably.
But Fournier likes that healthy
swing at the plate and it took Jim
Morley, the club owner, to find way.
Il understand that you are a game
bettor," said Morley to Fourier one
day.
what is il, Jim? Have you a sure
tin on a horse race? Give it to some
one else, for have been stung too
often"
FOuFnieF Takes IL Up.
'T simply wanted TO make you a
proposition," returned Morley. 81
think you are swinging too hard at
the ball. If you will give me 81 for
each double, 50 for a triple. and 81 for
every home run you make, I'll agree
to give you 81 for every single you
hit"
You're on" came back Fournier.
A glance at records Of the past year
show that Fourier would have been
a loser in 1918 and broken even in
1917 under that arrangement.
Last year Fourier hit safely 100
times, of which Sc were singles. He
hit % doubles, 13 triples, and 8
homers, That would have cost him

his singles, which would make him .
