JOHNNY DUNDEE
FACES NEW FOE
Pal Moran, Southern Light
weight, Opposes Veteran in
Olympia Feature
CHANEY LOSES ON FOUL

Johnny Dundee will face new foe
here this evening. The aggressive little
Italian. who has n standing challenge
before all the eligible lightweights, will
mingle with Pal Moran. the sensa
tional southern battler, in the main
bout at the Olympia
Moran's first appearance here was
all star battles at the Olympia Thanks
giving afternoon. Moran looked very
good in his debut.
Dundee. trouble maker for all
aspiring youngsters and just as annoy
ing when mingling with the veterans.
will endeavor to make it as unpleasant
az possible for the southern boy.
Moran. also. will attempt to batter the
jumping ring general into submission.
There is ono class of ring artists that
always attracts. The lightweights have
the call over all others. This was not
true few years ago when Kid Williams
was leading the bantams. but interest
has died ont among the 11S- Founders
and the following has started to trail
the 1872 Founders.
At the National last Saturday two
of these lightweights, who not long ago
were listed among the feathers, put on
Il slugging act that was a wonder for
four rounds. In the fifth one of the
boys landed foul blow and the fight
was stopped.
George Chaney. after fighting his way
through hailstorm of punches for four
rounds, landed a southpaw wallop be-
low the belt. Benny Valgar crumpled
and the fight was stopped. Referee
Frank (Pop) O'Brien stepping between
the combatants.
Shortly before the windup went on
few of the alert fans recognized Kid
Williams seated quietly in the third
row. Calls for the former popular
champion soon developed into thunder
Gus appeals. The Kid responded.
No fighter ever was given more en-
thusiastic receutiOn. When the noise
subsidized the Kid announced that he
intended to return to the ring and ex-
pected to box here early next year.
In the semi windup Billy Cole and
Johnny Mahoney staged another hard
battle, with Cole slightly in front at the
end. Cole faced disaster in the sixth
round when he walked into a right
swing which Mahoney landed squarely
on the nose.
The blood spurted freely. but despite
the liberal flow Cole fought well until
the finish. Many believed that Cole S
nose had been broken. If not, it at
least was badly damaged.

ROBERTSON DOOMED
FOR OLYlNPTC COACH
Penn Coach, Assistant to
Nike Murphy in 1912,
Likely to Be Named U. S.
Tutor
is VEIL QUALIFIED
BY EDWIN J. POLLOCK

nAWSON ROBERTSON is being
- doomed for coach Of the 1920 Amer
lean Olympic team. The Olympic com
mitteemen would not go astray if they
picked the Pennsylvania truck tutor for
the post.
Robertson was assistant to the late
Mike Murphy, who was head coach of
the 1912 team and he is thoroughly
qualified for the position. 1t was he
who really put the United States team
over to championship, for Murphy
was in i'll health at the time and did
very little active work.
The Penn trainer is great condition
er of men, fact proved by his record
of championships while he was with the
Irish American A. C. in New York and
at Pennsylvania He has been at every
Olympiad since 1901 and knows the
caliber of competition in the interna
tional games.
Robertson competed as sprinter in
the Olympics of 1904. '06 and '0S and
in 1912 really coached the American
team to n worlds title. He is an all
around athlete himself and not only
knows how to do things on the athletic
field, but also possesses that rare facul=
ty Of being able to show others.
DOXING in colleges has been raised
ID to much higher standard since the
war and now is gaining as much recog
milton as any other minor SPORT Last
year the first intercollegiate champion
ship was held, and although Penn and
state were the only entries. there are
many promises for greater number of
competitors this year.

In the way of doing things for the bet

prising nineteen of the secondary in
stitutions in Illinois. is so much in
favor of the sport that it has been
raised to major proportions and
championship tournament will be held
next spring in conjunction with the
track title games.
Until last season boxing was virtually
ignored at Pennsylvania, but despite
this the sport managed to thrive under
the leadership Of George Decker, the
boxing instructor. Last year the ath =
letic council gave permission to hold an
intercollegiate tourney. The title bouts
were held in Weightman Hall and box
ing gained much in prestige.
