Caught Fish, Had Hootch and Saw Pretty
fIarbor Seal.

Last Sunday a half hundred fishermen went
out to the iightshp on the zoraya from Ca
narsie.
Capt. william McAvoy put us right on the
srot where schools OF fish were feeding, for
as soon as or slnkers touched bottom the
bait was grabbed by the hungry fish, ami

though the weather warm and balmy
for January the waves were surely high

compensation for the tossing.
Most of the fish caught were taken on
SKINNER bait and cut up whiting. There was
the liquid bait of old too, for nearly every
fisherman seemed TO have a small supply,
which goes to prove that fishermen are men
OF self-deter mination and are bound to Sc
cure what they think they should have by
right Of tradition.

Pepper Martin Receives
Award Over Sullivan

Pepper Martin Brooklyn's favorite
featherweight, defeated Kid Sullivan OF
Brooklyn in hard fought twelve round
battle last night at the Rink Sporting
Club Martin was aggressive and after
a few seconds Of boxing floored Sullivan
with left hand smash to the jaw.
Sullivan turned the tables in the sec
ond and Martin hit the canvas. but was
up like flash.
Sullivan drew blood from Martins
nose in the ninth round, which was
Martins poorest round.
Martin hit Sullivan with all he had In
the eleventh, but to no avail.
The bout was interesting all the way
and toward the end Sullivan had the
better OF the contest and apparently de-
served the decision. The weights were:
Martin, 1874, and Sullivan, 124A.
In the semi-final of ten rounds Tony
Caponi Of Rock Island was declared
winner over Andy Thomas Of the East
Side. Caponi led most of the way and
landed the cleaner blows.
Johnny Cannon of Brooklyn and Joe
Clifford of the East Side fought a
slashing draw. Cannon dropped Cliff
ford twice in the first round. for the
count of seven and nine, respectively.
Throughout the rest of the rounds the
bout was slugging match. Clifford
weakened Cannon with body blows, but
In the ninth round Cannon rallied and
dropped Clifford. He arose and fin
ished the round. Cannon weighed 1lS
and Clifford 116.
The opening contest of six rounds
between Tim Healy and Joe Dalia was
stopped by the referee in the fourth
round and was called no contest.

Should Yale win a tie will result, and

the local association will order a playoff

Chief Executive Sustains Rul-
ing Of the New York Ath-
letic Commission.

ALBANY, Jan. 19.-The stand taken
by Gov Miller to-day supporting the
State Athletic Commission in what
ever it does is considered a knockout
blow to boxing in armories. The COM
mission has announced its opposition to
licensing armories. The Governor said !:
1--WE must remember that boxing ex-
hibitions might not help the National
Guard any and might even harm it. The
National Guard comes first In the use
CT armories."
Gov. Miller does not favor the Brun-
dage bill, which would -eduire the COM
mission to license at least one armory
in cities outside OF New York.
while it is true" he said. that in
some up State cities there are no other
places available except the armories. the
commission might think that such cities
are better off without boxing.
81 am standing behind whatever the
commission does" The Governor added
that the commission had decided not to
,ncsease the number Of places in New
York city in which boxing exhibitions
might be conducted, and that in line
with this policy no exhibitions would be
allowed In armories
There are at present a number Of
places in New York city licensed for
such exhibitions" he said
The Governor was reminded that the
charge has been made that closing the
armories to boxing In New York city
was virtually creating a boxing monop-
ely there.
There is no question of monopoly"
he said. There are plenty of places in
New York where contests may take
place. AS I understand it the policy Of
the commission is to limit the number
CT licenses and not extend the number
Of places. Their judgment I am going
to accept.
THE change in the law placing the
licensing of boxing in armories in the
hands Of the athletic commission was
to meet such a contingency. l am in
formed that there has been a tendency
on the~part Of some Of the National
Guard units to enlist ostensibly as SOL
diers men who are known as profess
sional fighters. These men do not in
tend to become soldiers and their USE
fulness to the Guard Is questionable"

REISLER MAY GIVE
HERMA,; SURPRISE
Hard Hitting Youngster Is a
Dangerous Opponent for
All in Class. !
ny CHARLES F. MATHIsoN.

Babe Herman. the spectacular feather
weight fighter from the coast. will dis
cover tonight in Madison Square GAR
den that Young John Reisler can hit
much harder than Andy Clancy. The
youngster may not hit so often as the~
Baitimorean. but his blows will carry
muck more force. Herman fights in
pyrotechnical style, his swings flying
about like rockets. But they lack ef-
fectiveness. judged by the manner In,
which Clancy recovered from their
effects.
'Reisler is a straight hitter with ether
hand and all his weight is behind every
punch Herman may outpoint Reisler..
but if the yorngster lands one of his
heavy right harders on the Herman.
Jaw the referee is apt to be confronted
with a protracted session of counting.
Another good bout on the same pro-.
gram will bring into the ring Clonie
TAFT, the lightweight champion OF
Canada, who is reputed to be an ex-
celent boxer. The feat that brought
TAFT into prominence was knocking out
.Llew Edwards when that Australian
champion visited this country. How
eral other lightweights in this coun-
try the achievement Of TAFT was not
wonderful.
Tait's opponent tonight will be Tim
Droney of Lancaster. Pa. who recently
got into the ring with Benny Leonard
and was on his feet at the end of the
eighth round. Droney is rugged chap.
can take beating and is said to have
some ability as hitter.
In the other bouts Bud ClEistiano.
Chicago lightweight. will appear against
Freddie Jacks, the Englishman. and
Billy Marlowe OF Far Rockaway will
meet Battling Leonard.
Christiano claims he has whipped
Ever Hammer. He has boxed with Will
lie Jackson. Andy Chaney, stopped
Teddy Meyers. beat Jim Goodrich and
defeated Herman Smith in fifteen
rounds.
The most important bout carled for
this vicinity in the near future is that
In which Mickey Walker and George
Ward. rival Jersey welters, will meet
in a twelve round bout at the Fourth
Regiment Armory next Monday. These
boys are natives of the same town.
Elizabeth, and for years have been close
friends. 1t Is said this friendship will
not interfere with each doing his best
when they meet in the ring. Ward has
the reputation of being a clever boxer.
but he failed to prove it in his bout
with Dave Shade, who easily outpointed
tn Jerseyman.
Walker, on the other hand. Is a heavy
hitter. and has battered some of the best
men in the division. He floored Jack
Britton when he and the champion
boxed. Walker should on his merits
defeat Ward.
The Billy De Foe-Earl Baird match
will be the main tweiva round event at
the Pioneer A. c. next Tuesday night.
