Ledoux Fails Again.

The contest between Kid williams,
former worlds bantam champion, and
Charley Ledoux, bantam champion OF
Europe, which took place in Baltimore
Thursday night was not only n thrill
ling bout. but 1t revived recollections
of the combat between this pair at YER
non. Cal. July 10. 1913, when Williams
knocked out the Frenchman in the fif-
teenth round. Williams at this time
was hot on the trail of Johnny Coulon,
claimant OF the American bantam title.
and few months later the Baltimore
Tiger stopped Coulon in three rounds.
After all these years the Frenchman
went after Williams with the object OF
widing out the defeat of 1913. but again
he was disappointed. Williams receiv I'd

The Frenchman put up a plucky fight
and never let Williams set for moment
In the nth session williams just missed

referee.
In the next round Ledoux's head came
In contact with Wllliams's forehead and

after that, and the Frenchman bled at

NAVY SEEKS ENTRY IN
WRESTLING ASSOCIATION
College Organization Has Ig-
nored Application.

Special Despatch TO THE NEW YonK HERALD.
ANNAPOLIS, Dec. 1S.--In spite OF the
rebuff which has been given the Naval
Academy by the intercollegiate Wrest-
ling Association the midshipmen are
showing their usual Activity in the sport.
interesting season. Not only has the
Naval Academy been refused admission
to the association up to this time but
several of their most regular opponents
of recent years have declined to make a
date for the coming season.
Representatives of the Naval Acad-
envy will take up the matter of their
membership at the next meeting of the
Wrestling Association. which probably
will take place late this month. No good
reason can be assigned why the entry
should be refused. as the academy team
is now in position to enter the finals
wherever they may be held. Applica-
ton for membership has been pending
for over a year
The objections to the Naval Acad-
emy's entry, so far as they can be
learned, are based entirely upon an erro-
neous view Of the situation at Annapolis.
1t was stated unofficially by the repre-
sentatives of other colleges that the
academy was not wanted because wrest-
ling was part of the course there. This
is a mistake. The average mldshipman
gets no more routine instruction In
wrestling than In any other sport, and
only candidates for the team are getting
special coaching.
OF Its old opponents the Naval Acad-
envy is certain OF meeting only Pennsyl-
vania State, which will send its wrestlers
and boxers on the same day. yet to be
fixed definitely There is also the prob
ability OF a match with Princeton and q
chance for one with Yale. The manage
ment has turned to other sections to COM
plete the schedule. The University of
West Virginia will send its team here on
February IL, and Virginia Military In
stitute will have date. The Institute
fas taken up the sport comparatively for
tho first time, its entry marking the
first step in this line taken by South
ern Institution.

contest, in which endurance would have

and other heavies of the second class
would not have had possible chance
against Dempsey In his best form.
In his explanation Of the fact that
Brennan lasted twelve rounds last Tues
day night and was snuffed out in six
rounds at Milwaukee February 25. 1918.
Dempsey suggests that in his recent
bout in the Garden he might have been
a bit overturned and overanxious. The
excuses offered are weak, especially as
the champion weighed 1SS pounds. his
normal fighting weight. Had he been
overturned he would have shown fall
ing off in weight. They fail to explain
why the dazzling speed and panther
like attack that brought Fulton, Willard
and Miske down in Jig time were miss
ing against Brennan in the Garden.
The champions explanation falls to
explain why the torrential rushes and
crashing blows that brought Brennan
down in six rounds in the Milwaukee
bout were missing.
Authentic reports OF the Milwaukee
contest show that Brennan was all but
knocked out in the second round. Demp-
sey flooring the Chicagoan four times in
Brennan managed to escape damage
in the third fourth and fifth sessions,
but in the sixth Dempsey smothered his
man with a shower of blows from every
angle. and with heavy smash TO the
jaw battered Brennan to the floor The
referee then stopped the one sided con-
test
The contrast between the milwaukee,
meeting of Dempsey and Brennan and
the Garden contest forces the conclusion
that Dempsey either Is not the fighter
he was last July. when he beat Miske.
or was not making a genuine effort TO
end the Garden bout as soon as he
might have done.
In this connection the repeated asser-
ton that the result of the bout in the
Garden makes the Dempsey-C Carpenter
contest more attractive is significant.
However, II Is impossible TO get posi-
tive evidence to support any theory as
to. the motives Of Dempsey. and not TIL
be gets into the ring with Willard or
Carpenter in future battles Will the
facts underlying the contest with Bren-
nan in this city be known.
