BY JOHNNY KILBASE
Featllerwelgtit Champion

The question often has been
asked whether present day fight.
ers of the type of Jack Dempsey
or Georges Carpenter, who clash
July 2 for the heavyweight cham
pIonship, could stand up under the
old-tlme finish fights OF half a
hundred rounds or more.
Take the great John L. sulli-
vans win ever Jake Kilrain in f5
rounds, back In 1883, for example,
or the 81 round draw that Jim Cor.
bett fought with Peter Jackson in
1891 at Frisco.
Either Dempsey or Georges
could go that route today-but
fans would be treated to an alto
gether different style OF fighting
from that they will sec at Jersey.
And it would prove far less inter-
estlng.
When fighter goes, into a fin
ish fight. he battles with extreme
caution. Not a surplus step is tax.
en-; not a blow wasted. He con-
serves all his energy for the gruell-
ing rounds that are to come later.
In a short fight, such as that
scheduled for Dempsey and Car
pentier, both msn wade In and
fight from the time the bell rings,
knowing that there will be at most
only SO minutes Of actual fighting
and that they need save no more
than enough stamina to carry
them over that comparatively short
time.
The inclinStion Of a boxer to
save steam for the wind UP OF his
fight Is shown by the experience
Of eastern boxers on the Pacific
coast. In and around San Francisco
fights usually are. scheduled for
only four rounda. Eastern fighters,
used to fighting 12 or Is rounds.
step into the ring and start off
slowly from force Of habit.
Coast boxers, familiar with the
four round bouts. are off like
chain lightning with the bell. And
they keep their fists flying conttn-
uously, with the result that they
often have the bout won on points
before the stranger on tho coast
wakes up to the fact.
A short fight means hammer and
tongs fighting; a long fight means
n slow and measured study.
That's why / say that, taking
into consideration even the differ
ent style OF Dempsey and Carpen-
tier, the Jersey battle, from the
fans viewI; will be a better
one than were the long drawn
out battles Of Sy.gone days.

FANS DELIGHTED
WITH BIG bout.
Bob Martin and Gunboat
Smith Fight To At
tract Crowd

The announcement that BJl
Martin, 1nter.AllIed champion and
idol Of West Virginia boxing fans,
would meet Gunboat smith in a
ten round bout at Camden Park,
near Huntington, on Decoration
day. May 80, was met with much
enthusiasm on the part Of West
Virginia boxing fans and those
throughout the entire Ohio valley.
This battle beyond doubt, will
be the greatest sporting event in
the history Of West Virginia, for
both fighters arc the foremost con.
tenders for Jack Delnpsey's crown.
Bob, as every fisttc enthusiastic
in the Ohio valley and West vir-
ginla knows, is .,ouud to meet
Jack Dempsey Icr the heavy
weight title, providing Jack de.
teats Georges Carpenter in their
championship bate at Jersey City,
July 2. Martin fought Brennan to a
standsttll in New York and Bren-
nan is tho only mai who ever
stayed until the twelfth round
with Jack Dempsey Bob is i'm
proving rapidly, IN fact his steps
up the pugillstic ladder are SO
rapid that within another year, he
no doubt will be able to put Bren-
nan and other contenders away in
quick succession. A few more
fights with non of GunboatI
Smiths cal!her and he will have
On undisputed path to Jack Demp-
sey's door.
OF course lle must defeat Gun
boat at Camden Park on Decora-
ton day, M0nGay, May 81. He
must knock Gunboat out, IN order
to prove conclusiyely that he is OF
Championship ca.iber. He ia going
to have a hard time doing this
however for South 1t must be re-
melnbc/,l knocked out Bob rSoper,
In ten rounds. while Roper beat
Bob twice. Gunbcat has been in
South America beating the heayies
there and his battle In Huntington
will be his first bout since his re.
turn to tbs United States. A vic
tory for Bob over Gunboat would
greatly inLrease his stock.

Some Local Spot Chatter

The track meet at Morgantown
Saturday was one Of the best in
the history Of scholastic athletics
in this state. That the winner and
the runner up in the meet were
about on a par is shown by the
fact that only one half point sep
arated the two first teams.

WILHELM MAKES
PUBLIC LETTERS
OFHINDENBURG
Former Kaiser in Effort to
Pass Buck to Field
Marshal.

BERLIN, Dec. 19-"Coward or mar
tyrI" is again the burning question con-
fronting the German ration following the
publication OF the ex-Kaiser's correspond
ence with Field Marshal Won Hindenburg
IN which the former Emperor passed the
buck" for his flight into Holland follow
ing the collapse Of the German army.
Publication Of the letters was designed
to prove William was not guilty of cow
ardice in fleeing from Germany and that
he had attempted to prevent the war.
NATIONALIST PRESS
ACCEPTS STATEMENTS.
The entire nationalist press has ac-
cepted all the statements in the letters as
true and is fairly reveling in eulogies of
the noble sacrifice of the former war
lord
The only Earring note was sounded by
some Of the tunker newspapers, which
expressed the opinion that the ex-Kai-
ser's place at the moment of the nation s
greatest trial was at the head of the
army.
The junker papers put responsibility
upon Hindenburg for proposing the ex-
kaiser's fight but say that the advice
should not have been taken.
Leaders of the junker faction criticise
Gne revelations as hl0QelDurSS G1rlSL-
mas present to the nation" 1t has come
ss a shock, however, In view of the fact
that 1t was sprung at the hour Of Ger
many's admitted bankruptcy and on the
eve Of the conference with Premier Lloyd
George and Premier BRAND in London.
1t is feared that the correspondence
win furnish ammunition TO the French
irreconcilables.
As to Hindenburg, his mistaken
loyalty to his old sovereign is universally
admitted. Even enemies Of the aged vet
eran praise his devo. lion.
CRITICS HOLD FLIGHT
UNPARDONABLE MISTAKE.
Impartial critics not allied with the
Nationalist-junker groups contend that
the ex-Kaiser'S flight was an unpardon-
able mistake. They argue that instead
Of averting internal bloodshed, it was
the straw that broke the camers back
the camel being Prussian army discIp-
line. With the war lord gone, the bot
tom dropped out.
The opinion WAS widely held that while
the kaiser's correspondence might soften
the bitterness against him, it was not
sufficient to Great any sympathy in his
behalf, or raise any desire for his re-
turn.
1t was declared freely that Germany
now q land Of apathy, Indifference and
uncertainties-ls through with William
end the former Crown Prince, his son.

SHANK WOULD
PERMIT JITNEY
BUSES TO RUN
FavOrs Modification of Ordi-
nance Prohibiting COmpe-
titiOn.
RECOMMENDS BOND PLAN

Modification of the jitney bus reguIa-
ton ordinance to permit Jitneys TO
operate upon any streets they desire To
use, provided they meet high bond re-
quirements now in the law is favored by
Samuel Lewis Shank, mayor-elect. The
ordinance was drawn so as to leg1slate
| Jitneys off of streets where street cars
run for the purpose Of granting the In
dianapolis Street Railway Company's de-
mand that it be relieved of jitney COM
petition. The jitneys now are permitted
re Iun on such streets, but can not re-
eeive or discharge passengers thereon.
Mr.. Shank also announced that he
hopes to obtain either the repeal or modi-
flcatiOn of the anti-open vault ordinance
If the measure can not be repealed, he
hopes it can be changed so as to permit
property owners three years instead of
one to make sewer connections or install
sceptic tanks.
FAVORS ZONE
CARFARE PLAN.
In return for loosening the jitney regu-
latiOns, Mr.. Shank said he would favor
permitting the street railway company to
collect fares under the zone system where
by cents would be the cost of a short
ride and 10 cents a long haul,
Courteous treatment of patients and
visitors at the city hospital and better
ment of the ambulance service as well as
establishment Of a foIlow-up system of
caring for patients after they leave the
hospital, are things which the new board
Of public health hopes to accomplish,
DR.. E. e. Hodgin, chairman, said. DR..
Hodgin said he is interested in taking
better care of mothers and babies while
they are in the obstetrical ward and after
they are sent home.
Mr.. Shank and Herman F. Rikhoff,
appointee for chief of police. are con-
sidering suggestions for changes in the
traffic regulation system, brought from
Detroit by City Councilman elect Walter
". Wise.
OFFENDERS TOLD
To co AND SETTLE.
/ Mr. Wise said in Detroit traffic regu-
lations offenders are given a sticker by
the pOli eniSn who catches them and di-
rected 20 go to police headquarters to
ray their assessment. At Headquarters =
card index system is kept If it is the
violatOr's first offense he is assessed 81 !;
second. IS and subsequent offeuse in any
one year, s.. If the person with the
Sticker thinks he has been unjustIy
handled he can take his case to city court
This saves busy persons a trip to city
court if they wish to pay the assess
men, Mr.. Wise pointed out. Detroit col
leeted more than $4,000 in assessments
last year, few people going to court
WISE RECOMMENDS
ONE-WAY SYSTEM
One-way traffic streets and the tower
system OF traffic control were recon-
mended by Mr.. Wise.
Miss Rachel Bray, Miss Helen FRANKIE
and Miss Geneve Means, policewomen
under the age OF so, have rendered their
designations, effective Jan. 1. 10 Miss
Clara Burnside, captain o. policewomen
They said since Mr.. Shank had tailed so
much about young women in police work,
possibly he would change his attitude
toward the department II they got ont Of
it. Mr.. Shank intends to abolish the
women's division.
