HELPED BOXING
IN WEST
Tex Rickard of Middle States
Pays Visit to New
York.

NEW YORK, Dec. 22.-Jim Null
lens, the premier boxing promoter
Of the West. has arrived in the city
Mullens Is as we'll known through
out the Middle West as Tex Rickard
is here in the East. He has not
only been successful in running
shows at Peoria and Aurora, ILL.,, but
also has done wonders in rehabilI
tating the sport in st. Louis and
at East Chicago. He is here to sign
talent for some big bouts next
spring.
Aurora is the best spot Promoter
Mullens has. According to his own
figures, his weekly gate takings
there average $4,000 In Peoria. a
small town in comparison to real
fight centers, as high as $4,000 is
being taken in at the gate.
Before going to ST. Louis the club
running there drew the small
amount of SAT-. The one before, in
which Frank Carbone met Jock Ma
lone, the gate amounted to but
$1,000. Mullens, since he took hold
Of the reins, has held three shows,
the total sums taken in amounting
to SAC, 900.
Mullens' next move iS to operate
shows in Omaha, Neb., where five
promoters have been battling for a
long time against one another. Jim
expects to bring peace in the family
and show the Nebraska promoters
how they can all make money.

AID STONE WINS
HAND|LYFROM
BILLY SHADE
Didn't Knock Out His Man, But
Displayed Lots of
Stuff.

NEW YORK. Dec. 22.-Ad Stone,
Philadelphia s socalled second Jack
Dempsey, won a rather impressive
victory over Billy Shade, of Cal
ifornia, in a twelveround battle at
Madison Square Garden last Qight.
Stone didn't knock Shade out, as it
had been said he would, but ne
gave an exhibition in which he dis
played plenty of potential class.
Stone weighed 174h and Shade 172.
The fight took place before the
smallest crowd that has witnessed q
professional boxing show in Madl-
son Square Garden in years. The
attendance was 1885 for gate of
$7,697.S3.
In defeating Shade the Phila-
delphian won every round except
the first, second and third. In
these sessions the California boy
seemed to shoot his bolt and was
seldom dangerous after that.
In the fourth, eighth and twelfth
rounds Stone had Shade on the
point Of a Knockout, but was un-
able to drive in the finishing punch.

Here's a Difference


FITTING away, for a moment,
Vr from Brown and the Navy,
~ let's listen to Bob Zeppke,
coach Of the Illinois University
football team:
"a mushy schedule makes a
soft team" says he. eff you
want a good soldier, test him with
blood and fire. Same thing with
football players. A grueling cam
palgn puts iron into their sys-
TENS and makes them fighters. ."
The Illinois schedule for 1924
includes games with Michigan,
Chicago, Minnesota, Iowa and
ONO State, the strongest teams
in the Western Conference. In
addition, Nebraska and Butler
are on the list.
Illinois has one soft spot, De
Pauw, out of eight games. Every
thing even, the Middies can count
on certain victory when opposing
William and Mary, West Virginia
wesleyan, Vermont and Bucknell,
with a possible even break with
marquette, unbeaten in the past
three years. Illinois has a much
harder schedule than the Navy.
Now look at Brown. Colby
and New Hampshire may be fig
ured as victories for Brown, with
ali the others either defeats or
small margin wins.

the same position at Washington

During this season, when Cap
tain Mulllgan was not in the line

Ford is rated as left-field hit
ter. He takes - right-hand swing
at the ball and usually sends 1t
sailing to the left of second base.
Even so, the left field barrier ut
the PhilIies' Park isn't so far
distant as the Braves Field fence,
so don't be surprised If he pOkes
out some telling blows during the
season.
Ford has had his troubles in

First, let us take a peek. at
Cornells football problem for
1924. The Ithacans next year
play st. Bonaventure, Niagara,
Williams, Rutgers, Columbia, Sus-
quehanna, Dartmouth and Penn
sylvania, with no game on the
Saturday before the final clash
with the Quakers.
Now look at Navy's schedule
The Middies take on William and
Mary, Marquette, Princeton, West
Virginia, Wesleyan, Penn State,
Vermont, Bucknell, an open date
and then the Army.
And here's for the doughty
Brunonians, who play Colby,
Chicago, Boston University, Yale,
Dartmouth, open, Harvard, New
Hampshire and Colgate, with a
chance that the open date may
be filled by Pennsylvania, or at
least a team of equal strength.
There is every evidence in these
schedules that Cornell nurses it's
football team, filling the schedule
with soft games in order to have
the varsity ready for the stronger
foes. That is Gil Dobie's method.
1t has always been his method.
The Washington times., 1923-12-22

schedule, putting to shame the
Ithacans.
No, all-American football selec-
tions don't amount to much, but to
all fair-minded men, if Brown loses
to Chicago, Yale, Dartmouth, Yale
and Harvard, it will still have
made a better record than Cornell,
which wins every game on it's list.
Wen Miss "Sparky."
<<OPARK PLUG" Matthews
- has gone back to the mi
nors. We're going to miss
that youngster the next time we
gaze upon the Mackmen. He put
color into an otherwise drab out
fit. But Connie Mack prevailed
upon all his brother magnates TO
waive claim to Matthews and sent
him back to Milwaukee.
Matthews, for one thing. had
speed on the hoof. He wasn't a
great hitter. He was a poor
thrower. But, with both these
weaknesses he was a drawing card
in Philadelphia through the first
half of the 1923 season. He got
on first base and kept moving. In
the field he got under everything
anywhere near him.
Some good friend of Connie
Mack's-some bird like Joe Nc
Cready or Bill Brandt or Gordon
Mackay, should wise him up to out
fitting his club in uniform going
more with a human being. That
would help. But Matthews made
good in spite of that uniform han
dicap.
Yes, We'll miss "Sparkie" and
believe Clark Griffith might have
done worse than grab him for the
Grltfs, II only to put some pep into
the gang. The good Lord knows
the Griffs will need a whole lot of
pep if they are to get anywhere
next year.

Ever since he was graduated
from Tufts College in 1919, Ford
has been playing under contract
with one or the other of Boston's s
major league outfits. He captained
Tufts in 1918 and was reelected,
but didn't play in his last year
for he was under contract with the
Red SoX.
That was the war year. when the
league races were shortened and
FOrd's chance never came. But he
went to the Braves the following &
year, was farmed out to the New
Haven, Eastern League Club, and
reported to George Stallings in 1919.
Since then he's filled in around the
keystone sack for the Braves.
Ford is no "fIash i'm the PAN"
He was u unanimous all-SchOlastiC
choice when he starred for three
years as ShOrtStOp at SOmer-

Nor did his speed slacken at Tufts
nor with the Braves. He may be

Ford, however. would rather play
shortstop than any other position.
He covers ground to his left like a
flash and he's no SLOUGH going to

affairs will be put on either at Los

81. A new ball park is being con-

game probably will be played there.
On April l. the two majors will

as to make these jumps possible, the

week, March "a to 30, will be spent
there. and eight games will be
played with the Oaks, two of the
attractions being listed as q. m.
and D. IN, Sabbath affairs.
The games at Oakland will be in
the nature Of spite contests. The
San Francisco Club, which happens
to be a Mccarthy hacker in the
Pacific Coast League row. refused
TO give the Cubs a date. This was
done TO show hostility toward VIII
liam Wrigley. jr., who owns the
anti-McCarthy Los Angeles Club, as
well as the Cubs.
With the Cubs practically locked
out, all the San Francisco dates were
available for the Pirates. who signed
up for a solid week During this
same week the Cubs will be staging
counter attractions across the bay at
Oakland. On the other hand, the
Pirates, because of the fact that
they "hogged" all the Frisco games,
were turned down when they re.
quested series with the Angels at
Los Angeles.
After leaving the Pirates at AIbu-
9uerque. the Cubs will stop off at
Wichita Falls, Tulsa, Oklahoma
City and Kansas City. Five games
will be played with the last named
after which the Killefers will have
one or two days to rest, depending
upon whether the National League
selects April Is or Is for the sea
sons opening date.
