PEP, YOU FELLOWS;
START SOMETHING

Did you ever see pocketbook
full of bills lying in the middle of
the sidewalk. Did YOU look at it
long while and wonder whether
it was fake or the real article?
And while you looked, did some
body come along and grab it right
before your nose, and then count
over the roll that would choke a
horse, while you kicked yourself
all around the block? Or did you
grab the roll yourself and take a
chance?
Rock Islands baseball chance
for. 1920 looks a good deal that
way. An unlimited supply of pep
for baseball of the right brand is
current in this town. It only needs
organization and capitalization.
Any place you go in the city,
from the smallest billiard parlor or
chill counter, to the biggest hotel
lobby. cafe or exclusive club, you'll
hear the real live citizens of the
town talking baseball. and agree
ing that Rock Island wants the
game. Now, why not take advan-
tage of that? Communications tc
The Argus along that line will
/ help.
Let's arrange for a meeting and
! get the thing going. With Walter
Flanagan for a manager baseball
here would boom even as football
did last fall. There's not mucf
time, and hard work must be done

MOORE, Who
BESTED Wilde,
SEEKS new MIX
Memphis Bantam Cunning for Re.
peater with Champion British.
or in This Country.

Milwaukee. Jan. 26.-One of the
interested young men at the ring
side when Jimmy Wilde, British
Ertle of St. Paul in the Milwaukee
Etle of st. Paul in the Milwaukee
auditorium Thursday night will be
Pal Moore, sterling bantam boxer
of Memphis, Tenn. MOore's pres
ence will be due to the fact that he
is hot after a match with the
Briton, whom he has twice fought.
There's a reason for this desire
on the part of More. He fought
Wilde when both were in war serv-
ice and gained decision in three
rounds over Jimmy. That happen
ed in London too, where Ameri
cans generally are supposed to get
the short end of decisions when a
bout goes the limit. But after that
Wilde and Moore were matched for
a 20-round encounter and this bout,
also staged in London, at the Olym-
pia club, resulted in decision in
favor of Wilde, Eugene CORR being
the referee.
Moore Just Back from London.
Attention is called to these pre-
vious performances just to show
why Moore passed up -remunerative
bouts in Europe, hoped boat and
returned to America Saturday. He
seeks the chance TO reverse that
20-round verdict that Wilde was
given over him in London and he
believes that he can do it in Amer
lea. He will issue his challenge
from the Milwaukee ringside to the
Briton and his manager, Davis
Hughes.
The fact that Wilde's manager
has stated that he will meet no
bantam in America who cannot
make l1S pounds or less is not 60
ing to hinder Moore from hound
ing" the foreigner.

BOB YORK LOSES
HIS LAST FIGHT;
ONCE SEEN HERE

George Dewey of Pueblo. Colo,
known in pugilistic circles as Bob
York, took the count in a battle
with death at a Forth Worth, Texas.
hospital Saturday afternoon, acA
cording to an Associated Press dis
patch. Death followed an opera
ton.
He was middleweight and was
we'll known in local pugilistic cir
cles, having been seen in several
engagements at Rock Island. York
was 2S years old. He leaves a wife,
mother and several brothers and
sisters to mourn his death.
York's last appearance in a Rock
Island ring was with Tommy
Murphy of Chicago, whom he lost
to via the knockout route in the
third round. Previous to that en-
gagement York fought Jack Dillon
and Len Rowlands at Rock Island,
securing a draw in both bouts. He
was popular in this locality.
All three bouts we're staged by
Babe Meanor last winter.
Following his fight with Murphy
York left Rock Island.
Some time ago Meanor received
a letter from Bob's brother inquir-
ing as to the whereabouts of the
fighter. The letter stated that his
father died, leaving Bob small
fortune.
: His last ring appearance was at
Fort Worth, Texas, two weeks ago
Saturday.

THREE, MAYBE FOUR
HARD GAMES AHEAD
FOR LEGION TEAM

Starting with the Moline Club
house game Wednesday night at
the Y. NJ. c. A., the Rock Island
American Legion basketball team
looks forward to a schedule which
will cause many tough workout
and some mighty hard-fought con-
tests in the coming month. The
Moliners look this way with dire
hate and envy, after having been
practically forced into Wednes-
days combat. Now that they're in
it. they think, they will put forth
all their skill and force to down
the Legionnaires. The Legionnaires,
on the other hand, have some re-
spect for the way the clubhouse
men push their opponents aside to
roll the leather through the rope
bag. For this reason fans on both
sides contemplate a mix worthy of
their attention Wednesday night.
On Feb. Is. when the l. A. C..
squad arrives, folks are planning
to purchase flowers for the bold
ex-soldiers of Rock Island. But,
read on: The Legion men are
wasting no cold perspiration over
the prospect, and from all appear
ances Manager Brennan and Coach
Anderson have some cute little sur
prise up their respective sleeves
and may be prepared to throw a
jolt into the Chicago friends, like
unto none seen here since the Off
cial exodus of hooch.
On the other hand. few miles
northeast of this fair city a dozen
warriors of no mean ability thirst
for the blood OF the Legion. Ster-
ling intends to come back, and
come back strong. when the locals
journey there Feb. Fl for the re-
turn game. They we're beaten here
IS to 20 few weeks ago, it will
be remembered.
Whether Davenport's Turner ag-
gregation, defeated at the initial
showing Of the Legionnaires in
Rock Island. will come across with
a return game. is not known. They
seemed not satisfied to take their
medicine. and beefed with copious
clustering all around the sporting
centers OF Davenport. Whereat q
new challenge for a game in Iowa
was sent them. That was several
weeks ago and no advice has been
received. The Turners-or Black
hawk Mattress Factory five, as they
called themselves while here-are
really strong aggregation. How
ever. there are three heavy tan
giles booked. and this one may
make . fourth.

BY "SPHEROID SLIM"

Although Rock Island high
schools basketball shooters showed
better class than in previous bat
ties they fell victims to the clever
team work of the Galesburg squad
Saturday night. The final count
was % to -. The result of this
game puts the locals little strong
er than Moline, the score of the Mo-
line-Galesburg tilt having been "a

week and the Islanders are conf
dent of coping the game.
The islanders showed improve
ment but lacked the passing ability
which was put forth by Galesburg.
The Islanders are on the upward
road, however, and will meet Mo-
line with all confidence of winning.
Galesburg jumped into the lead
at the very first and continued two
or three points ahead throughout
the whole game. Right at the be-
ginning of the second half Rock
island staged comeback and sue
ceeded in coming within one bas-
let of overtaking its opponents.
Galesburg got lucky, however, and
! raised the score.
Duffin and Lofgren played mean
games. Both of these men we've in
the contest every minute. Lofgren
tossed one in but Duffin had hard
luck and didn't succeed in finding
the loop. Sundeen made good in
mis- first game, throwing two has

kets and threw three out of six
fouls. Henke is better guard than
