RING STRATEGISTS
OFTEN VICTORIOUS
Pepper Martin Follows Ex-
ample Set by Kid Mccoy
and Frank GOtch.
by CHARLES F. MArHIsoN.

The manner in which Pepper Martin
stopped Johnny Dwyer at the Rink
Sporting Club yesterday afternoon was
by no means the first time an athlete
has been defeated by a ruse. Martin
put over knockout punch on coming
out of a handshake. which was unsports-
manlike. to say the least.
Kid Mccoy was matched with giant
foreigner named Herr Plaacke, in Phila-
delphia. April S. 1904. McCoy's oppo-
nent outweighed him by sixty pounds.
and could, the big chap have fallen on
the slender but agile Hoosier the latter
would have been crushed. Mccoy de-
voted the first round to lodging the ter
rifle blows turned loose by Plaacke, and
while the Kid tried hard to reach the
chin OF the big fellow he found 1t diff
ficult 20 get an opening for solid
shot.
Plaacke continued his rushing tactics
In the second round. and while he failed
to land on Mccoy he made matters very
unpleasant for the Kid.
Mccoy finally decided he would have
TO employ strategy in order to bring
about the downfall Of his huge oppo-
nent. Therefore. Just as Plaacke was
about 10 rush at the Kid. Mccoy said
walt n minute; wait a minute: your
shoe Is united" Plaacke stopped in his
tracks and gave startled look at his
footgear. He had barely learned thai
his shoe was not united when Mccoy
shot his right against the point of the
big mans chin. Piaacke hit the ring
floor with a crash akin to that of Dunk
horst. the human freight car. under the
impact OF Fitz's left shift. For fifteen
minutes Plaacke did not know whether
he was shod or barefooted.
Frank Gotch once tricked libby. the
present champion. Gotch shifted from q
