LARSEN THINKS
He SHOULD Be
SIKH NEXTF FOE
Norseman Had No Trouble
Mastering SenegaIese in
Army Days.

NEW YORK, Oct. 17.-Wolf
Larsen. former amateur light
heavyweight champion and now a
professional, is the only fighter in
this country who can give a real
line on Battling Sikh. who recently
beat Georges Carpenter. the
French idol.
Larsen, who has been in this
country a little over two years,
when in Notre Dame. Holland,
often boxed with the negro, who
has become a most conspicuous
figure in the sport over night. They
were wont to work out together
in the Amsterdam Athletic CLUB
gymnasium and at that time the
Wolf found no difficulty in beating
Sikh at all points of the game.
The Senegalese made his home
in the Dutch city, having married
n white girl OF Notre Dame and at
the time was striving to become
proficient in the art Of self-defense.
He had boxed in the army during
the war. and because of his won
derful development above the waist
was urged to take up the game in
earnest.
Larsen says at that time he
knew little aDOul Ino llTo pointS
of tie game, but possessed hitri:Ig
aUility. The Wolf is satisfl ID that
ne is the negros master. nctwith-
standing that he has very likely
improved since then.
so confident is the battling
Norseman that he can jump into
fame by being the first man to
meet Sikh that just after the world
received the startling news that
Carpenter had been knocked out
by an almost unknown negro Lar.
sen got his worldly goods together
and prepared to start for the other
side to try and get match with
the Senegalese in Paris.
The Wolf had not been fighting
much previously. and he was going
to work his passage across the
pond on one of the steamships ply
ing to France. He was about ready
to go, having secured a job on one
Of the French liners, when the
papers told him that Sikh was tC
come to America. He unpaCked
and decided to try for the first
crack at the new light heavyweight
champion Of the world.
II the latest reports that the
Senegalese has changed his mind
and will not come here are true
Larsen, Immediately after his bat
tie with Billy Shade, will start for
the other side.
Because he and Sikh weigh about
the same he figures on getting the
first chance.

ITALIAN MISSION SUDDENLY VOTES
 7OMOHE 4 WAY FROM PARENT CHURCH

| fill, pastor Of the south church, had no Knowledge of the action taken and had not been advised when inter- viewed by n Herald representative | shortly before noon today. Intima- tions were made yesterday by an Ital- Ian member that for some time they have felt that their Mission was somewhat of a white elephant on the hands Of the South church.
 Costly Experiment
 The Italian Mission was started in the south church about 10 years ago and has been supported and fostered by that institution and the Connecti- cut Missionary society, q Congrega- tiona organization, ever since, It Is said the South church has spent thousands of dollars in an attempt to build it up. MT. Maictta was In the employ of the society. His resigna- ton has been rendered to Dr. Hill.
 Anticipated Other Action
 At a meeting held month or more ago, attended by Rev. Sherrod Soule, Rev. Dr. George w, C.. Hill, Rev, Michael Maietta and Miss Caroline E, Bartlett, the alleged failure of the mission to realize all its expectations was discussed. At this time it was agreed that the mission should be given another chance to recoup its dwindling membership and interest. The statement was made that in case of failure, Rev. MT. Maietta would be given plenty of time to look around for another position. At Miss Bart letts suggestion, she being the head of the Italian Sunday school in the South church, letters were sent out asking the members whether or not they would prefer to meet at o'clock in the afternoon rather than at 10 in the morning.
 Declined To Change
 "We found it more convenient to continue our meetings at 10 o'clock in the morning rather than change to 4 o'clock in the afternoon" said one official yesterday.
 Sunday School May Follow
 When asked if the Italian Sunday school conducted by Miss Bartlett would follow the congregation to the ltIIlHldHuel CHuTCH, all Ollcldl ol lIle mission shrugged his shoulders as though disclaiming any responsibility and said, Well they all belong to our families"
 No action has been taken by the South church in regard to the Sun day school, it being an active and progressive organization and is felt to be in line with Miss Bartletts work in the City Mission.
 Just Moved, That's All
 The Italian people plan, however, to open a Sunday school at 930 in the Gospel church and have their church services at 10 o'clock. No minister will be employed at this time. Rev. Maietta will not leave the city until Friday of this week.
 When asked a few minutes before noon If he had anything to say con corning the action, Rev. Dr. Hill said he knew Mir. Maietta was going to leave but had not been advised of any other action When asked if the ac- tion taken was entirely independent of the Connecticut Missionary society, Rev. Mir. Soue replied, Absolutely"
