PRINCES TO MEET
In GAME OF GOLF
United Press Leased Wire

TOKYO, March IL. - The crown
prince Of Japan and the crown prince
of England are all signed up for the
most royal little golf game ever staged
in these parts.
Their twosomc will be one of the
events of the visit OF the prince of
Wales to Japan, where lie will arrive
April -, from India, to return the visit
of Hirohito to England.
Hirohita has gone in for golf with
much zest of late, and is said to play
a snappy game. 1t is probable that
this imperial interest in golf will
cause the game to gain in favor
throughout Japan.
Special links for the exclusive nae

The prince of Wales are being con
structed in one of the great palace
grounds in Tokyo.
The British resident of this country
are willing to bet al sorts of real
money on Wales-but the trouble is
the scores will very probably not be
made public.
The indication is that Officially'
there VIII be no scores and no specta-
tors. The present position of the au-
thorities is that it would be undigni-
fled as well as undiplomatic to allow
the two crown princes to break into
the sporting pages--or to admit that
either one had bested the other.

Kramer practically has lived on "A

and he had been riding professionally
for 26 years. He has won titles and
championships galore and is regarded
as one of the greatest performers that
ever pushed the pedals around.

he was champion rider of the town.
He cleaned up the best riders in the
adjoining towns and in 1898 won his
first title by beating all the entries in
the championship ride of the League of
American Wheelman. In 1899 he won
the championship of the National Cy-
cling Association.
Kramer turned professional in 1900,
after having outelassed everyone in
the amateur class. In his first year
he was good enough to finish with a
record second only to ''Majah Tay

1901 he improved and won the profes-

WRESTLER, BOXER
ARGUMENT IS
REVIVED
AGAIN
BY HENRY L. RREL

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, March II. - Wise
heads vary in whether a socking fist
or a pythonic arm offer the best
method of delivering a kO.
1t would be interesting to let Jack
Dempsey and Stranger Lewis give a
debate on the subject. But there is
little chance of it.
Dempsey would want too much
money to prove statement he made
some time ago, more or less to the eff
feet that all wrestlers were walking
examples of something loose in the
head Mr.. Lewis also would want
something to prove his counter argu-
ment that if boxers had TO work like
wrestlers there would not be any box
ers.
New York might furnish the neces-
sarv purse, because any town that
falls for two six day bicycle races a
year and eats up the trick matches
thing.
The New York commission has to be
figured. Since the. athletic solons of
the state have gone out of their way
to drive out wrestling by sanctioning
rolling and flying falls, it is almos. a
cinch they would not allow a pure com
mercial proposition like Lewis sug-
gestion of a match with Dempsey.
Lewis makes the challenge, posts the
forfeits and offers a side bet-after
Dempsey has made all his plans to go
to Europe on April II. Kearns, talk
ing for Dempsey, saws of course that he
accepts the challenge.
