toward with n rush. They are Pal
Moore, Of Memphis and the United
States navy, and Jimmy wilde, of Lon
don and the British army.
Their engagement Is set for London
July II, and in exchange for his SER
vices Moore will receive more money
for this one bout than he has made in
all his previous encounters, The
amount is III ,0O0-a quite tidy sum as
the quaint saying goes,

champion In name, he IL a title holder
In accomplishment and ability, And II
he knew Of some way of entiCing Pete
Herman, Of New orleans, into the same
ring for n championship bout he might
be king by coronation.
The only things Moore can do in a

own weird style OF attack. This leaves

leading bantam OF the world. He is
tall, lean and agile; tricky, steady and
sturdy, He has the stamina and the
speed. and best of all the ambition
Against such a combination Jimmy
Wilde will not find the evening dull OF
unexCiting.
More than this, Wilde is not facing a
green entry who has flashed up witt

SPORTS COME A

Sports of all kinds are enjoying a
wonderful boom-a real comeback
throughout the British Isles this sea-
son. Many familiar faces of past
champions are missing on all sporting
fields, but the games are carried along
with intense enthusiasm. The king Of
sports, horse racing, is now in full
swing, several of the pre-war classics
having been run off while many more
are scheduled during the season.
County cricket was resumed last
month after a stoppage since August,
1914. With the exception of Worces-
tershire, all the counties which COM
peted for the championship before the
war are playing two games each week,
which attract large crowds.
While the open championship will
be omitted this year, golf is steadily
resuming its pre-war appearance. The
professional Golfers association VIC
tory tournament, which was played re-
Gently, attracted 1903 entries, including
all the leading professionals. 1t was
won by the veteran James Braid with
a score of 1856, Harry Vardon was
eighth $50, Edward Ray ninth (164),
George Duncan eleventh U65), and J.
II. Taylor nineteenth with 1855.
Athletic meetings are held each week
all over the country, several promis-
