LOCAL AMATEURS
SUCCEED AS PROS.
Jimmy Hutchinson, National
Champion, Wins in Profess
sional Debut in New York
UNDER MONTElTH'S WING
BY LOUIS II. JAFFE

Philadelphia has turned out num-
Der of crack amateur boxers in the last
two years, and several of them are
making good at present in professional
competition. Earl Hartman, Benny
Bass and Artie McCann all used to
fling fists for glory rather than for
get, and each of these lads now IL
doing nicely in fsticutting for the filthy
stuff.
Another "all- for glory" gloveman,
who 1t Is said will enter upon a profes-
sional career in the near future, Is Dan
Gartin, of the Meadowbrook Club. He
is the national 1876 pound amateur
champion, and defended this title in
Boston the other night by getting a
decision over Earle Sawyer, the New
England titleholder.
The latest Of the local amateurs to
start boxing professionally is Jimmy
Hutchinson, brother Of Hughey, Phila
delphia featherweight. Jimmy won the
national amateur bantamweight crown
title, the younger Hutchinson won a
lot Of other laurels in boxing for models,
cups, watches and diamond rings.
Several nights ago in New York,
Jimmy stepped into ring and started
Il professional page in pugilism, Incl
dentally closing his amateur career.
Hutchinson was opposed to Billy Con-
molly, a veteran of dozen matches.
and Jimmy was rendered the judges
decision at the finish of ten rounds.
He looks like another real find ="
writes Scotty Monteith in referring to
Hutchinson. "a pleasing, satisfactory
youngster, is the kid. and he has all
the carmarks of a champion"
The Hutchinsons-Hugh and
Jlmmy-both are under the guidance
Of Scotty Monteith. making a Scotch
trio. Monteith is identified now with
the New York syndicate management
Mead, Monteith and Cox.
Montcith verifies the story that Joe
Lynch, former bantamweight champ,
and Mead have made up; that they
have signed three year contract, and
that campaign is about to be un.
fturled to bring the lean Irishman IN
line for bout with Johnny Buff in a
bantam championship match.
Andy Chaney is another title seeker
under the Mead Monteith- Cox direc-
uon, and as soon as Johnny Kilbane
announces himself ready to defend his
teatherweight title an effort will be
made to match the Baltimore youth
with the venerable champion.

FIVE CATHOLIC HIGH
GRID STARS HURT
Coach Greer's Team Badly
Crippled for Radnor High
Game on Friday
CAPTAIN SMITH MAY START
By PAUL PREP

Catholic High Schools football team
will face stiff opposition Friday when
1t battles Radnor High School Mt
Wayne. The team is not in condition
for the game.
Last Saturday Jack Greer, the
coach, took his Cahillites to West
Chester to play the high school aggre-
cation of that budding metropolis. Be-
fore the start of the fray Greer had
two of his best men-Carroll and Har-
ron, tackle and center respectively-on
the sidelines, injured. When the final
whistle blew seven more boys were in
jured. 1t is believed that at least five
OF this number will not be able to start
the game Friday.
Devine and O'Connor, ends: Schmid
and Maxwell, tackles, and McNally,
halfback, are the injured.
The West Chester game was rough.
Penalties were few. Roughness Is a
terry might be q better way of expressing
what happened Nine black eyes on
seven youngsters is quite a record for
any football game. And that's only
Catholics casualty list. West Chester
did not publish theirs.
The Purple and Gold protcges showed
wonderful fighting spirit despite in
jurics and refused to quit
The game had but thirty seconds to
go; just enough time for the home
eleven to try one more play. When
the center snapped the ball back, five
Cahilites broke through the line. Scott,
substitute tackle, blocked what was in
tended to be punt, and Dick Schmid
recovered. He ran for n touchdown.
This score won the game.
While Greer has lost q whole flock of
stars. he is at least thankful for one
thing, Captain Smith. star right half
back in all probability will be able to
start for the first time this season. He
will bear the brunt Of the work, IL he
gets into uniform, and will greatly help
the boys to keep up their confidence and
fighting spirit.
Greer has done wonders for the Broad
street institution since his return. When
school opened this season only two vet
Grams were back, and with these as a
nucleus Greer was able to get a com =
binRtion capable of upsetting Southern
and West Chester High Schools within
week
Greer turned out the only champion =
ship teams that ever came from Cath =
olic High School, and while It Is not
expected that he will cop another title
this season, he will have all but one of
his players back next year in the race
for championship honors.

the ball which he hit into the
bleachers for home run in the Sec
ond inning Of the sixth game was
returned to him by the fnn who
caught it. To return a ball at the
Polo Grounds is most unconvention-

turned one. The rooter said his

TWENTY THREE
PERSONS KILLED
IN TRAIN WRECK
This Number Accounted for
Several Passengers Are
Still Missing.

Philadelphia, Dec. S.--TwentX-three
victims. of the head-on collision yes
terday between Philadelphia, and
Reading passenger trains near Bryn
Athyn, Pa, had been accounted for
early today. With one or W excep-
tons. however, definite Identification
was impossible because of the charred
condition Of the bodies. Nearly all
were taken from the wreckage OF the
two wooden coaches which caught fire
almost Immediately after the accident
md were destroyed. e.
A canvass of the residents OF News
town and Southampton, the two little
towns where most of the victims lived,
showed that several persons known to
have been passengers on the trains
were missing early today and 1t was
feared that other bodies were buried
in the mass of ashes and twisted steel
or were burned to death. Wrecking
crews and rescue workers continued
their search throughout the night.
Three Investigations to determine
responsibility for the wreck were I'M
der way today.
