The Chicks and Barons spent
Monday on the inside looking out,
as 1t was raining cats and dogs In
Birmingham, making baseball I'm

Monday, two games are on the pro-

DEMPSEY IN FORM.

Dempseys exhibition was by far the
best he has shown since he took the
lid from his career a year or so ago.
He possessed speed and footwork be-
coming a champion, and his punching
appeared to carry more steam than at
any previous time. Dempsey fought
carefully and showed the greatest re-
spect for Sanders right hand, which
Dempsey realized might drop him If
1t landed. On one occasion in the late
rounds of the mill. Sanders shot over
his right and it landed squarely on
Dempsey's jaw, but he showed no signs
of having been hurt.
1t was one of the best fights ever
staged at the club, and although San
ders was beaten, he was not without
honor, for he extended the same brand
of ganeness that made Battle Nelson
and Jack Dillon the great fighters that
they We're. Had Sanders not been so
unfortunate in having his nose broken,
he would have been able to put up
much better fight. and he deserves all
the credit in the world for going on de-
spite the terrific handicap of a broken
nose Many other fighters would have
quit, but Tommy gamely went the
route.
In the semiwindup Johnny Leonard
outpointed Young Jack Rainey in six
rounds. Leonard landed the cleaner
punches, while Rainey was content to
hit with his open glove, making lot
of noise. but doing no damage.
Burrhead Scott gave Hambone Muir
ply a beating in four rounds. Ham
bone found the going rough from the
start and had to call on all of his
staying powers to be there when the
final bell sounded.

Shortly before 1t was decided to OPP

Chapman's wife in Cleveland, who I'M
mediately started for New York.
The accident occurred at the outset
of the fifth inning. Chapman was the
first batter up and was hit by the tirst

that the report. of the impact caused
his bat. Mays. who pitched the ball,
acting under this impression, fielded the
ball that rebounded half way to. the
pitchers box and threw to first base
in order to retire Chapman.
Then 1t was noticed that Chapman

staggered and crumpled up at their feel;
Physicians were Immediately called

quantity of clotted blood. A small piece
of the skull was removed.
The physicians at first entertained q
faint hope that the ball player would
recover, but he failed to rally.

usually to a rough spot on the cover: lie

u gameness that has ever been exhib-
ltea az the 8; A, G. In the second round
terrlilc left hook broke Sanders nose.
BLOOD Immediately started to flow and
soon covered both boys. Sanders was
weak from loss of blood, but he kept
on all the rest of the way throughout
me eight sessions, never giving up,
anu continuing to force the fighting UNI
III the last second of the mill had been
reeled off On two or three occasions
spectators thought Sanders was going
70 get knocked out, but he showed the
ablllty to assimllate punishment that
rev glovesters have exhibited at the
local boxing club.
sanders only chance to win the bout
was by Knockout, for early in the mill
Dempsey proved that he was Tommy's
master when 1t came to cleverness.
Dempsey fought a safety first fight,
jumping in and landing a series OF
the safety zone. Sanders had his right
! hand cooked throughout the fight, but
never had the opportunity to send over
q haymaker. He started his sleep wal
Top several times, but Dempsey always
managed to block it or make him miss
altogether.
According to our tablulation of the
light by rounds, Dempsey had seven out
Of the eight, with one being even. The
I first round was halved, but starting the
second and continuing throughout thu
remainder of the mill Dempsey had the
margin. Sanders broken nose which
was sustained in the second round,
handicapped him to a great extent, and
he was obliged to fight defensive fight
the greater part of the time, as Demp-
sey kept jabbing and hooking to San
ders' face, figuring that he would be
able to knock Sanders out with another
; hard punch like that one that broke
Tommy's nose. Ice
In the seventh round fans thought
Sanders was gone, for Dempsey stag
gered him with a series of lefts and
rights that had Tommy groggy and
weak on his pins, making it difficult for
him to keep an even keel. During the
last minute of the seventh Dempsey
turned Sanders completely. around with
a right cross. Sanders weathered tho
, hurricane of gloves and managed to go
the route, still apparently strong at
the finish.
