Sammy Kelly's greatest victory
was over Billy Plimmer, the Brit
isher. That was on March 9,
1897, their battle taking place at
Birmingham, England. Plimmer
had just returned home from his
mix-up with George Dixon, and
his countrymen believed him in
vincible. But Sammy Kelly,
after badly trouncing Plimmer
all the way, knocked him out in
the twentieth round.
Kelly lost one bout in his
career, that to Marty McCue, now
a New York assemblyman, who
outpointed him in ten rounds at
Harlem on October 20, 1894.
After defeating Patsy Frederick,
November 6, 1897, Kelly yielded
to the request Of his mother and
retired from the ring.
During his boxing days Kelly
fought such well-known perform
ers as Solly Smith, who conquered
George Dixon, Austin Rice, Joe
Bernstein, a tough opponent for
anybody, and Patsy Broderick,
another of the same caliber. He
battled Jimmy Barry to a draw
in twenty rounds on January 81,
1897.
For several years Sammy Kelly
had been associated with the rae
ing enterprises of Charles A.
Stoneham, president of the New
York National League club, who
named one of his yearlings after
him two years ago.

IN a. course and he has the same
thing as one shot Of that distance
to be made four times-a much
simpler matter than making four
short. hole shots Of varying length
and calling for different club
each.
Thus the fine Chicago course
improves upon the famous Coun-
try Club course at Brookline, one
of the great gOlf-testing grounds,
because BrOolxline, an older course,
has two mid.iron short holes and
two machie pitches for its other
shOrt-hOle green's.

golf Is two.fold-lt adds variety to
the sport and it gives the player
opportunity to use some weapon be-

n real thought added to make these
short holes OF varying length and
description, as has been done at
Briergate. Golf Is game or per-
centages and this kind Of building
adds a certain per cent to the lure
Of the pastime.
It is by such margins as these

Criuui's Chances.

~ ENE CRIQUI, the soldier Of
" France, the European
~ featherweight champion, may
be owner Of the worlds title to-
night, but between him and that
honor stands the crafty Johnny
Kilbane, holder of the American
title. And this is some hurdle.
Criqui is said to be a hard
hitter, a body-punisher. If he
were younger he might be con-
sidered to have a better chance
IF winning than he has. Some
body is going to whip Kilbane, if
he remains in the ring, and it
might be Criqui.
When a veteran goes the way
of all dust it is usually because
he cannot stand the pace set for
him by a younger opponent.
Criqui is about Kilbane's age and
of almost equal ring experience.
He lacks the advantage of youth.
Why Kilbane is generally favor
ed comes from the knowledge of
his ring skill, which was earned
here in America. Criqui's skill
was acquired in Europe. Few
Europeans begin to have the class
Of Americans in things fistic.
Of course, Criqui may land a
haymaker, but if Kilbane has not
lost bis ring craft, the Frenchnnan
is going to find it hard to land
on vulnerable place today in
their battle at the New York
Polo. Grounds.
