Jack.Bill Bout
Latest Challenge of Brennan
Is Burke, Dempsey's
Sparring Partner.

New York, July 30.-(Special.) y
Tex Richard denies that he has sign
cd Jack Dempsey, worlds heavy
weight champion, and Bill Brennan,
the Chicago boxer, for a title bout to
be held somewhere in the metropoli-
tan district on Labor day.
A new challenger of Bill Brennan
has bobbed up He is Matty Burke,
the New Orleans string beam who
was one of Dempsey's sparring part
ners when the champion was pre-
pairing for his bout with Carpenter
Burke says he now is ready to tackle
Brennan, Fulton, Mike Gibbons or
any other top-notch heavyweight,
but he prefers to take on Brennan.
Burke has had plenty of expert
ence, but his light weight was big
handicap to him. Recently he has
filled out considerably and now is
sturdy enough to tackle any of the
big fellows. After taking Dempsey's
wallops for several weeks Burke
thinks he is fully capable of assimi-
lating anything that may come his
way in bouts with other heavies.
The New Orleans candidate for
heavyweight honors is % years old,
stands feet, 3 inches and weighs
us pounds in fighting condition. He
is very clever boxer and faster
than most of the big fellows.

Hindu Players
ToPlay in U. S.
India's Best Racquet Swing
ers to Compete for
Davis Cup.

New York, July 30-(Special. y
While American lawn tennis players
may momentarily hold to disappoint-
ment because of the decision of
France not to send its Davis cup
team to this country, there is due
compensation in the fact that the
sensational players of India will ar
rive here shortly. OF course the
defeat Of the French team was fore
shadowed by the statement of Will
liam T. Tilden, II. upon his arrival
from England. The famous Ameri-
can at that time was inclined to be-
lieve that Andre H. Colbert and the
others were not equal to standing
against the men from southern Asia.
By all odds the brilliancy and re-
markable playing of the team repre-
senting India has been the outstand-
ing feature Of the season on Euro
pean courts. There are a number
of skillful players in the group,
headed by A. A. Fyzee and his
brother, DR.. A. H. Fyzee. Among
the others are S. M. Jacob, who is
the captain of the team; Mr.. Sleem,
L. 5. Deane, Singh Barpur and Das
Nersingh.
Tneose who have watched these
players from India have been enthu
siastic about their skill in base line
strokirg upon hard courts. The
Fyzee brothers are regarded as
among the most formidable of long
range players in the world.

Those were the sweet days." said
Kelly. "Old Bob was a most inter
esting character, and how that spin
dle-legged fellow could sock! l can
recall with pleasant memories some
of the didoes Bob would go through
in pasting the ambitious boys who
would step up for try at the
1000 smackers.
Partner Scares Challengers.
"Fitz had Dan Hickey for a part
ner in those days, and it was Dams
duty to greet the aspiring ones be-
fore they had chance to see the
champ. Dan would put the works
on the poor hicks and scare them
half to death before they put up their
hands against Bob.
"The moment one of them showed
Dan would greet him with a full arm
slap on the back, shaking a years
growth out of him. Now, listen. kid,
the champ is in an ugly mood today;
how far do you want to go?' Dan
would advise the aspiring one.
Generally the simp wanted it
right over with, and. to add to his
confusion, Dan would yell an aside to
Fitz, That fellow who went on last
night has not died, as first reported.
About this time the challenger's
knees would begin to knock.
Celt Not Intimidated.
"But one night a sorrel topped,
deep chested Irishman breezed into
the theater determined to make a try
for the thousand iron men. Hickey
tried to put the works on the fiery
Celt with his, how far do you want
to 60 stuff, but the Irishman had his
own ideas, and insisted that he was in
there to get the thousand and give the
champion a good licking.
"They could not do thing with
that Irishman and Fitz had an aw-
full time of it. The youngster was
very strong and really could fight.
They were tearing into each other
in the third round with the Celt
holding his own, when Fitz sudden
iy sunk his left hand through the
1rishman and followed it with a
terrific right smash to the jaw and
the Irishman dropped like thous-
and of brick.
"That fellow was out for about
five minutes and when he came to
he found the ring deserted except
for his two seconds, who had been
working furiously over him with the
fear that he had been killed.
Thinks He's the Champion.
The poor fellow did net know
where he was and the audience gavc
him great hand for his game fight.
Omaha daily bee., 1921-07-31

Still dazed and with the cheers
ringing in his ears, the game young
fellow made his way to the foot
lights and set himself for little
speech.
Ladies and gentlemen he be-
gan. I thank you for your kind
ness, and now that l have won the
championship | stand ready to de-
fend my title against any man in
the world Then they led the poor
mug off. 1t was a day later before
he found out he was not champion.
Yes, boys, those were the sweet
days, and ah, how old Bob could
soak. There wasn't any one grab

Atlanta Now Is
Harness Center

Atlanta has become the most pop
ular southern meeting place fc~'
horsemen. The Lakewood plant is
considered one of the country's best,
The Atlanta track came into promi-
nence in 1916 when Lee Axworthy
set its record at 1:59M, which was
not lowered until last year, when
Single c sent it to 1:59 and set a
worlds record for three consecutive
heats in l:59. 200, and 2:0CM.
The fact that each year more
horsemen with larger stables ship
to Atlanta speaks well for the Of
ficials of the Southeastern Fair as
sociation, under whose auspices the
race meets there are held.
Atlanta is the only southern city
outside of Lexington that has Grand
circuit racing. and the Southeastern
fair and the New York fair are the
only two fair associations that have
ever attempted to stage a Grand Cir
cult meeting.

Giants Scramble for

New York, July 30.-(Special. y
Judging by the appearance Of several
players on the Giant teanl few days
ago a small consignment of wash
must have been received at the club
house, precipating a lively scram-
bic for clean uniforms or parts
thereof. Granted that there was such
a scramble, Earl Smith must have
won it, for he appeared in sp;ck
and span uniform, shirt and trousers
obviously fresh from the mangling
machine. Somewhat less fortunate
in the free for all were Ross Young
and Frank Frisch, who bobbed up
in clean trosuers, which fairly glis-
tened by comparison with their
soiled shirts. Frank Toney got his
hooks on clean shirt, but either
missed out in grab for trousers Or
couldn't find pair to fit him. The
rest of the boys were out OF luck and

Wall Eye, the Vacationist's Fish

Wall Eye, the Vacationist's Fish
These are the days when the fes-
tive vacationist, possessed of two
golden weeks of LIFE, liberty and
the pursuit of happiness, tricks to the
north woods. II he be of piscatorial
proclivities, he goes with high hopes
of record muskellunge, goodly
strings of black bass, or heavy bas-
kets of trout. Often, especially in
torrid summers like the present, he
is doomed to more or less disappoint-
ment unless he packs potent horse
shoe, but while those major game
fishes may sulk, said vacationist will
generally find the old reliable wall
eye doing business at ye old stand
Truly the wall-eye is fish Of the
people. His wide distribution-he is
found from the Susquehanna, the
region of the great lakes and British
America, southwark to Georgia-as
we'll as his willingness to bite when
other fishes are "off feed" make him
a general favorite. He is to the adult
vacationist what his smaller cousin,
the yellow perch, and the sunfsh are
to small boys.
Another valuable feature of the
wall-eye is his high quality as food
fish. His flesh is. snow white, faky
and OF fine flavor; in the opinion of
some experts he is without a peer,
due to the fact that he may be fried,
baked, or boiled with equally pleas
ing results, Yes, the wall-eye is
SOME fish!
The writer has caught wall-eyes
over the greater part of their natural
range, at all seasons of the year and
with all sorts of tackle and methods;
there is no fish that varies greater in
game qualities. We have caught
good-sized ones that displayed no
more spirit than bag of drowned
kittens. Then, just when we became
convinced that the wall-eye-is a false
alarm as fighter, we have hooked
some that fought with amazing en-
durance and dash
By preference the wall-eye is fish
of deep water with sand or gravel
bottom, resorting to the deep holes"
in lakes, but coming into the shadows
to feed, especially towards evening
In rivers they generally are found in
the vicinity of dams, in the pools at
the foot of rifles, and other places
where the water is both swift and
deep.
Ordinary black bass tackle is suit
able for wall-eye fishing. Being
more of a bottom feeder than the
bass, the wall-eye is not as willing to
rise to the surface for casting lures.
If the angler wants to take him with
the casting rod, he should use lures

lreeled slowly, makes an effective cast
ing bait. The deep water rig, de-
scribed in this department last week,
baited with night crawler, is a

1t may either be cast and reeled

What Do You Know About Eels?
The eel does not rank high as a
sporting proposition. In the waters
of the middle west this fish is gen.
orally taken by chance when bait
fishing for commoner kinds. 1t is a
fact, however, that when an eel is
taken it is considered a great prize,
perhaps because of its comparative
scarcity, as we'll as its deserved
reputation as choice food fish.
While few of us ever go eel fish
ing, all of US have wondered about
the habits of this most mysterious
of fishes. In fact, the eel has al
ways aroused the curiosity of man,
and to this day many of the absurd
beliefs of the ancients concerning
this fish are still accepted as truth
by many uninformed folks.
The Greeks, who were among the
earliest students of fish life, found
the breeding habits of the eel great
mystery. Being both poetical and
a practical people. they solved the
problem, to their own satisfaction at
least, by aftributing the eel to Ju-
piter, who was supposed to be the
father of every child of doubtful
paternity.
Aristotle thought that eels sprung
from the mud of the sea, while Pliny
was of the opinion that they came
from slime rubbed off the fish.
Twelve hundred years later Albertus
Magnus agreed with Pliny's theory,
although Aristotle's views were gen.
orally accepted for more than 1000
years.
Said good old Izaak Walton in
1858: But that eels may be bred, as
some kinds of worms and some
kinds of bees and wasps are, either
of dew or out of the corruption of
the earth, seems to be made prob
able by the barnacles and young
goslings bred by the suns heat, and
the rotting planks of old ships and
hatcl,ed of trees"
Don't laugh. The idea of eels
breeding from dew and young geese
growing on trees-Gerhard showed
picture of a tree bearing geese in
his HERBAL" printed in 1633-is no
more absurd than many views held
by folks nowadays.
1t was not until the 18th century
that the female eel was differen-
tiated, and the male eel remained
mystery until 1873. incidentally, a
male eel never exceeds IS inches in
length.
Eels are catadromous That is,
they live in fresh water, and go to
the sea to spawn, as distinguished
from amadromous fshes-salmon,
shad, etc.-that ascend to fresh
water only to spawn. Just where
the spawning of eels takes place was
mystery until last year, when a
distinguished Danish scientist, DR..
Johannes Schmidt of Copenhagen,
after many years Of seeking, discov-
cred the breeding grounds of both
the European and American ecls.
The center OF these grounds for
the European species is about u de-
grees north and 90 degrees west, al
most in midocean, hundreds OF miles
east of the Bahamas. The American
species breeds little west and south

First of all, the crowd could not

Alexander Predicts Elimination OF
'Livelv Ball" Is Soon at Hand

New York, July 30.-Grover Cleve-
land Alexander, star pitcher of the
Chicago Cubs, believes that the
elimination of the so-called "lively
bali" is near at hand. With other
members of the Cubs Alexander feels
sure that the "old ball" is being
gradually substituted for the "rab-
bit"
There isn't doubt in my mind
that up to July 4 the ball used in
the National league was 'lively,"
says the famous righthander. Il
never experienced the slightest dif-
ficulty in controlling the ball prior
to that date. The glossy cover
didn't hamper my delivery at all. !
was able to curve the ball as well
as ever, and | used as much speed
as in former years. But the batters
lined out safe drives that nobody
could handle. The ball would take
one or two swift bounds and shoot
over the heads of the infielders, who
didn't have time to get near it.
Home runs were frequently made
by batters who once were unable to
drive the ball for more than two or
three bases. No matter how hard
the pitchers worked, the result was
the same-abnormal slugging and
big scores. l began to notice a
difference in the ball soon after July
4 and now l am dead sure that a
change is contemplated by the pow
ers that be.
MANY good pitchers now are be-
ginning to check the hitting and run
making. In my ouinion, their sud-
den effectiveness is due to the res
toration of the ball that was in use
two or three years ago. The lively
ball still issput in play, here and

Find Fewster of Yankees
Using NaiI-Studded Bat

In a game of the recent big Sc
ries between the rival first place
claimants of the American leaguc---
Cleveland and New York-Chick
Fewster of the Yankees CAME up in
the fifth inning with bat that would
not pass inspection by the umpire.
Umpire Owens discovered that 1t
was reinforced at its batting end
with numerous small nails, aud made
Fewster get another bat.
The one Fewster had to discard
is the one with which he made four
hits in game IN Detroit. II was
weather worn and his reason for
mailing it up was to preserve the
bat, rather than any intention of re-
sorting to illegal means to help his
batting, according to the New York
team.

Star Racehorse Rivals
Return as 4-Year-Olds

Now that both Purchase and Eter-
nal. strong rivals as 3-year-o1ds in
1919, have successfully returned to the
turf as winners on eastern tracks,
there is a probability of renewal of
their rivalry during the campaign at
Saratoga. Purchase beat Eternal the
first time they met as 3-year-olds, but
found he could not trifle with the son
of Sweep when they met in the
Brooklyn handicap last year. Pur-
chase, in this race, attempted to make
a weight concession to his rival, and

Goes A-Fishin;
His First Cast
Catches Rabbit

Fish stories are now being COM
bined with "out of season" gam,
yarns. V. J. Sanborn, a Cleveland
sportsman, had an experience that
beat all yarns, while enjoying day S
fishing at Forest and Sylvan lakes.
He hooked a bass so large that IT
made him nervous and instead OF
playing it, he gave the rod a yank
that unlocked the fish and threw
his hook into the bushes behind HIM,
Judge his surprise then when the
hook started a strike that kept his
reel buzzing until the end OF his line
was reached.
Then the rod was jerked from his
hands and went zig Raging through
the woods with Sanborn alter 1t, .
After again gaining possession OF
the rod and following the line to the
end he discovered he had hooked a
large rabbit through the ear.
No. he isn't carrying that rabbits
foot because rabbits, while plentiful
around the lakes, are out OF season.

there, which accounts for the heavy
hitting games. But as the season
progresses, l think you'll see better
pitching and smaller scores all over
the National league circuit. A re-
turn to former conditions is impera-
tive"
Alexander is among those players
who believe that the so-called
'lively ball' was introduced with the
idea that the public enthusiastic over
Babe Ruth's home runs. wanted an
epidemic of long-distance batting.
The magnates and the manufacturers
of the ball still insist, however, that
it has not been altered.

Carpentier Is an American
Boxer, as Regards Style

In one way, Georges Carpenter is
more OF an American boxer than a
European. Away back in his boy
Food Carpenter was first taught the
game by Frank Erne, the famous
American lightweight. Then ne had
Kid Mccoy for teacher. Then
came Willie Lewis, American mas
ter. and finished what the first two
had begun.
Georges is, therefore, not CONT
mental taught. The discredited Eng
iish school, from which France took
no the "boxe" sport within the last
20 wears, had nothing to do with his
technique He is French bred and
American taught in the game.
