His rope jumping, his physical

In his boxing the ropes mark his

display the brute nature expected of

After an hours work Georges once

KILRAIN LIKENS
FIGHTERS TODAY
SAYS They Are lust AS
Good AS Those OF
Long Ago
BY DEAN SNYDER

Fighters of today are just as
good as they were "a years ago."
Jake Kilrain says that He used to
battle with his bare knuckles.
He does not regard the bout be-
tween Dempsey and Carpenter as
child's play even if it is only for ~
rounds. He fought 1O6-round draw
with Jem Smith for the championship
Dec. 10, 1887.
Dempsey is as rugged as they
make 'em and Carpenter had a head
on his shoulders that will save his
hands a lot" he says.
81 think boxers of today have as
much endurance as we had in the
old days. It's all matter of train
ing" @Ma
Kalrain's wrong. Fighters of yes
teryear were of tougher stuff be-
cause they made themselves so, in
preparing for long, gruelling bat
ties.
If Dempsey and Carpenter were
training for 106-round contest they
wouldn't be such gluttons TO rrest.
Kilrain is now a Waterman at a
shipyard building plant at Quincy,
Mass. He is 62 years old
Home Run Rampage.
Nineteen twenty produced 631
home runs in major league baseball.
Nineteen twenty-one is almost GER
tain to far outdistance this record.
In games up to and including June
16, the American League in total
of 442 games played had made 1872
home runs-an average of .4344
homers per game.
EXTENDING this ratio for total
Pames of tho season, tho American
League would make 535 home runs.
In the National League at the same
date, 1913 circuit dives had been
made in 428 games-an average of
1903 home runs per game.
At this clip tho National League
would make total of 469 home runs
for a season.
This would make grand total for
both leagues of 1904 homers for the
season-sn undreamed of fence bust
imp record for major league baseball.
That ought to satisfy the fans who
a season or two ago were yelling for
more hitting.
Ruth's Fast Pace.
Ruthless Babe Ruth's home run
hitting average to date almost EQUALS
the American League average of .43
per game.
In Sc games, including June 16,
\ Babe has hit % four-base clouts.
That's an average of .4197 per
game. If he keeps up his present
clip he should finish the season with
sc for the season for another new
worlds record.
That's the reason Yankee box of
flee receipts are big.
In the American League the New
York Yankees lead the way, natural
", with Babe at the home run throt-
tie. They have team average for
four-base drives of .821A home runs
per game The Boston Red Sox are
trailing in home running with an
average of 1887 per game.
The home run fever in the Ma
tional League is lower, The Phils-
delphia club leads with team av-
craze of .6471. while Cincinnati i7
at the bottom of the heap with 1907.
