ROMERO WINS FIGHT.
BUT NOT IMPRESSIVE
BY FAIR PLAY.

NEW YORK, June 19.-Joe Stoessel,
former amateur heavy, did not show
signs of becoming an improved Jess
Willard, whom he resembles in stat
ure and build, in his bout against
Quintin Romero in this city last
night.
AS for Quintin he has changed his
natural manner of mixing in such
way as to make of himself less Of a
target for opponents. The result was
a crouch which. was effective in saw
ing him lot of punishment, but at
the same time made it difficult for
him to shoot his own punches, espe-
cially his right.
Stoessel injured his hand, his right,
when it collided with the top of Ro-
mero's hard head instead of his Jaw
This happened in the fourth round
and thereafter Joe had but one> hand
to use.
Quintin got the decision. 1t was
not thrilling bout-nothing like the

CAUGHT ON THE FLY

Many National hits went to waste
during the western trip because of
poor base running. Two were tossed
into the discard in the second in
ming of yesterdays game with the
White Sox, due to Mogridge's slow
stuff on the paths. George was on
first when Rice singled to deep CEN
ter. but pulled up at second instead
of taking advantage of a fair chance
to reach third. Then Matthews hit
to right and Mogridge was caught at
the plate by Hooper's throw.
A sparkling piece of fielding by
Harris brought about Collins re-
tirement in the third frame. With
Eddie on first Mostil drove sharply
to the National managers left, but
Bucky was across the field in jiffy
to grab the ball and make a snap
throw to Peck for an out.

Shirley's error in the fourth was an
odd one. With Kamm at third
Grouse sent a grounder to Mule.
The National first base guardian
fielded the ball so fast that Kamm,
who had started home, returned to
third, then Shirley dropped the
sphere and Grouse made first safely.
Red Faber was given a great ova-
ton by the fans when he came to the
slab in the fifth inning. 1t was the
championship game this season, an
arm operation having kept him on
the side lines.
Goxlin made a good catch of
Kamms loft to short left in the

that Falk left second and turned

a game effort to get Hooper's Texas

He isn't as clever as Tunney and he
may not be so fast. Gene has a repu-

Spalla probably will show he can
hit harder than Gene. but this may,
| perhaps will be, offset by Tunneys
greater experience and science in this
game of give and take.
But don't overlook that Tunney is
| not the lissom young man he used to
| be. He has taken on weight, and
| while this is supposed to have made
| him more rugged it may prove to
| have slowed him up. Tunney has not

The cruiser champ has got to get
by Spalla in good shape if he is to
prove an attraction as an opponent
for Tommy Gibbons, a match which
seems to be looming in the back
too, but the Frenchman is 1eary.
AS for Spalla, even If he does not
beat Tunney but lasts out the fight
real walloper, he probably will draw
an engagement against Harry Wills.
Should be stow Tunney away he will
be carefully built up for another
Firpo bout, or even may be shunted
along the Dempsey route.
Rocky Kansas may get an early
battle with Benny Leonard if he does
we'll in the coming bout with Luis
