Brady. who were to be his partners
in the promotion of this affair. gave
it up after mix-up over the forfeits.
Tex is game guy. However. he
is used to the trials and tribulations
of matchmaking and seems to be able
to train white elephants with great
success. Rickard says above all that
the fight will take place somewhere.
some time. most likely in Canada, but
possibly in New Jersey.
Richards long list of matchmaking
successes have set record in the
promotion line. His contests always
drew big houses and none Of them lost
money for him. His successes were:

In the meantime there is not an
Army post or cantonment or fort from
Plattsburgh to the Presidio. from
Sandy Hook to Seattle, where the
Hotel Commodore bouts are not being
discussed in a mood that verges upon
downright rancor. Down at Camp
Dix, at Wrightstown, n. j.. where
the 1st Division is stationed. there is
volunteer movement to descend upon
England with no arms. but fists. and
attempt to clean up every Tommy
who showed himself on the streets.
Men at Dix Have Ability.
And primarily there are twenty-five
men who have established pugilistic
supremacy among the thousands OF
soldiers stationed at this great can
tonment ready and willing to devote
every minute of their spare time to
.perfecting themselves pugilistically
along whatever intensive lines the
War Department may adopt. Right
now there are men at Camp Dix who
ability far greater than any Army
representative who boxed against the
British at the Hotel Commodore.
All of which brings US to this fact:
The best Army opinion obtainable has
it that the Army was not represented
as well as it might have been at Mon
DAYS tournament. In other words. it
is stated that Army champions did
not meet the British. The last Army
championship boxing bouts of which
athletic officers at various posts and
camps have record took place at st.
Louis last July. The lightweight
championship at that time was won
by Corp. Toomey. now stationed at
Camp Dix, who at the Commodore
put up the best and hardest bout of
the evening against Jimmy Brown of
the Navy.
Choice Of Boxers Puzzles.
Private Snyder won the light-heavy-
weight championship at st. Louis and
Corp. Langford won the heavyweight
title Just how Private Jack Cortright
was selected over these established
champions to meet Capt. Ernest v.
Chandler Of the British army and how
Private Ben Davis, the Choctaw In
dian, was selected to tackle Hugh
Brown, the British army light-heavy-
weight is not understood. There is
the feeling that soldiers who have no
right to titles should not be permitted
to pose as possessors thereof, GER
tainly not in international bouts where
the winning or losing of contests in
wolves significant prestige.
From Lieut.. S. B. Wilson, athletic
officer at the Infantry School. Camp
Benning. Ca, I have word that the
one process through which the Army
can develop high-class boxing talent
is a comprehensive system of amateur
Army tournaments in which honor

I iparaphernalia. I met Mails He kindly
expressed regret that l wasn't to stay
| for the series. l told him 1 wasn't
sorry. as the umpires had their work
| cut out. He asked me what I'thought
of the Chicago club. l told him it was
one of the greatest clubs l had ever
seen 1t was agreed by the critics
that if Cleveland could win two games
it would just about put Chicago out
Of the running.
Here is how Mails summed up the
series:
IF Bagby or Coveleskie can win a
game, We are sure to take two out of
three. Winning two games will just
about kill off the SoX. Ny game is
already in. AS a matter of fact I will
be surprised If Chicago scores on me-"
l looked at Mails and felt like say
ing it would be wise not to. get too
chesty. That was my first impulse. A
second look convinced me the thought
was not actuated by egotism, but con-
fidence. Instead of ridiculing the be-
lief, / rather admired Mails for his
attitude. You can imagine my feel
ings few days later when 1 picked
had shut out Chicago, 2 to 0. In one
inning with the bases filled he struck
out the side W saver and Collins be-
ing two of the men to whiff. 1 can
recall saying to myself.
Can you beat that big fellow? He
surely is wonder"
Starred in World Series.
During the world series Mails was
sent in to relieve Caldwell in the first
inning of the third game. Two runs
had been made off Caldwell. He held
Brooklyn scoreless for six and two
third innings, making way for pinch
hitter in the eighth. On the train that
evening 1 bumped into him and COM
plimented him on his showing.
That Brooklyn club is made to or
der for me-" was his laconic reply.
Those birds are lucky any time they
score when I'm pitching"
Every fan remembers his great work
in the sixth game. when he beat
Smith, 1 to 0, in great pitching duel.
Mails has great possibilities. He has
la chance to be second Rube Wad-
dell. AS one player once aid. when his
fast ball is working right. you don't
see it. but you can hear it. Mails was
the sensation of 1920. What will he

Vean Gregg had his peculiarities. One
could go down the line of the star

Just Confidence. Not Ego.
Amy one who didn't know Mails and
happened to engage in conversation
with him probably would get the i'm
preston that he hated himself" that
possibly he was swell headed; that
he was egotistical. In reaching such
a conclusion, one would be doing the
big left-hander a great injustice.
1 worked the first two or three
American League games in which
Mails pitched. His remarkable nat
ural ability Immediately impressed
me. He lacked perfect control. yet
when it was necessary to get the ball
over he came through. In way. his
wildness added to his effectiveness,
because none of the batters crowded
