SIKH CHAMPION
DESPITE VERDICT
Boxing Crowns Can Not Be
Lifted by Mere Decisions
of RulemakerS.
PUBLIC OPINION SAYS mo-
New York Commission Tried
and FaiIed-French Hasty
in Changing Idols.
BY JACK McAUL1FFE,
Ormer LightWeight Chamuion.

OIIlleT 1ISAl weight GIld1Il DIOus
NEW YORK, Nov. 11.-There is
only one way to win a ring cham
pionship and that's in the ring.
There's likewise only one way to lose
title, and that's in the ring.
All the boxing declarations and as
sociations in Europe and America
cannot take the two titles away from
Battling Sikh until he has been tapped
on the chin by a better fist.
The New York State boxing com
mission learned this when that body
ruled that Johnny Wilson was no
longer the worlds middleweight cham
pion. Regardless Of any rulings by
the commission. Wilson is still the
middleweight title holder, and he will
be until it is taken away from him in
the ring by a better man.
Color Question Looms
Disqualification of Sikh by the
French Boxing Federation and the
attempts to vacate his two titles no
doubt will bring up a question that
he is not getting a square deal be.
cause of his color.
I always have maintained in the
case of colored boxers who got in bad
themselves a square deal. Thare are
three outstanding cases Of colored
boxers who gave themselves square
deals, and who passed out Of active
competition with never a word but
the incest said about them. They
were Peter Jackson, Joe Cans and
Little Chocolate" Dixon They knew
how to take care of themselves and
they never conducted themselves so
as to cause talk of a color line.
For the actions Of Sikh. the French
people are much to blame themselves.
They tried, like the old expression.
to put the pig in the parlor," and
as is always the case, it failed.
The Cases of Carpenter
The French are quick to put up an
idol and quicker to tear it down.
remember when I was in Paris last
il was a requirement Of form for every
one to arise in one Of the popular
cabarets when Georges Carpenter en-
tered While they did not go to such
All extreme with Sikh, yet they show
cred enough attention on him to turn
his head, and when he went too far
they wanted him banished.
1t must be admitted that the Of
Tense of striking a second in The ring
Is rather trivial The last time Jack
Britton and Ted Lewis met in Madi-
son Square Garden, Britton took a
swing at one of Ted's seconds in the
corner and it drew nothing but a big
laugh.
However, the actions Of Sikh in his
private life built up such a timber pile
that it needed but the little flare of
that incident to burn him down.
Regardless Of what he is or what
he has done, Sikh Is the heavyweight
champion of Europe and the worlds
light heavyweight champion until he
is beaten, not by the lawmakers, but
by a fighter.

Princeton's jungle cat prowled IN the

laid a gridiron snare in the hope of
capturing it before sunset.
The best eleven Harvard could pro
duce, with every man in fighting trim,

fresh after a night at the Belmont
Country Club, was ready to make the
big attempt to beat Harvard on the

been done since 1895.

What about the new rule permitting
team to make one play from scrim
mage after scoring IL touchdown?
Shortly after the opening of the
football season l put that question
to a number of the leading coaches.
Few of them had anything good to
say OF the new rule. Some refused
to express an opinion until the re
form was given a thorough trial
A few weeks ago I again put the
same question to two prominent
coaches in the West. Neither coach
was of the opinion that the change

The new rule simply resolves it
self into a kicking affair" said one
Of the coaches. 1T is practically the
old play Of the goal after touch

The play is a trifle more difficult, pat
/ don't feel that it has added anything
worth while to the game
Far More Difficult
That same week 1 looked over the
scores of the big games. and found
that most of the teams We're missing
half Of their chances in attempting
to score from scrimmage. That proved
beyond a doubt that the play was
far more difficult than the mere goal
after touchdown.
Since coaches admit. and averages
prove, that the scoring from scrim-
mage is far more difficult than the old
play, it is only reasonable to suppose
that the play carries a greater thrill
The fact that the ball must be
passed while the opposing team tries
to break through to block the ball,
certainly makes the play far more
interesting than the old stunt Of mere
" kicking the hail after it had been
placed on the ground to suit the
kicker.
That the play has possibilities other
than mere kicking. that IL offers the
opportunity to resort to strategy If
willing to take a chance, was shown
in the game between Lafayette and
Washington and jefferson.
That w. and j. Fooler
Lafayette led W and J. IL TO 0 at

only a few minutes 20 play. w. and J.
scored another touchdown by resort

The second touchdown made it l3
all. as Lafayette had failed at goal
from placement after the second
touchdown.
The winning Of The game was put
up to w. and J. on its ability to add
