 The victory of Ben Funk. the Yale champion, over the lanky Australian, Jones, who surpassed him in height and reach, was feature of the eve- ming session. He boxed masterfully, saving his strength for the pinches.

 Among the welterweights, Hugh Haggerty, of Pittsburgh. knocked out Switek. of Poland. in the first round.
 In the same class, Al. Mello, Low ell, Mass, won from Doussot of France, on points.

Which is the more difficult, tht winning of major league batting championship or topping the pitchers
 Either one is mighty difficult task, but the records prove that the pitching feat is the more difficult. Last season Adolf Luque of the Cincinnati club was the pitching sen sation of the majors. He turned in 27 victories against only eight defeats | Some twirling.
 This spring when saw the Reds i17 action, prior to the opening of tine season, inquired as to Luque. ex- pressing the opinion that the clubs chances to win the pennant. to cer- tain extent. depended on his showing.
 Imagine my surprise when one of the veteran stars replied:
 Not Banking on Luque
 we are not banking IS strongly on Luque as some of our other pitchers. Pete Donahue is more liable to be our pitching ace this year than Luque.
 Ut is matter of baseball history" :" thc pl'SCit 'hoe S'~' pitchers seldom have two big years in succession.
 "Luque Is a great pitcher but he was no better last season than the year previous. when he finished with very ordinary record. The breaks favored him last year: this, plus his good pitching, made him a winner.
 tn 10 urinn m the breaks. He seldom is favored with them two years in succession"
 Has Trouble Winning
 The other day, in looking over the pitching averages, I noticed that Luque was having his troubles win ming consistently. It brought back to me what the veteran star had said about pitching.
 If the figures don't lie, and usually they don't, leading major league in pitching is a far more difficult task than topping the swat column.
 Since the inception of the American league in 1900 only one pitcher, fam ous Chief Bender of the Philadelphia Athletics, has been able to lead the pitchers in successive years, 1910-1911.
 Tn the National league during the same time, only two pitchers have turned the trick. Ed Reulbach, with the Chicago Cubs, showed the way to the other twirlers in 1906, 1907 and 1908. while Jack Chesbro topped 'em in 1901 and 1902.
 Cobb Has Monopoly
 On the other hand a certain few players during the same length Of time have had monopoly on the batting honors.
 During 24 years of play only eight players have figured in the Amer ican League batting championship. Ty Cobb has 12 times finished out in front nine of them in succession.
 In the National league Hans Wagner and Rogers Hornsby have been the most frequent winners, Wagner lead- ing with seven titles to his credit.
 The figures prove that champion pitchers seldom repeat, yet the feat is not unusual among the batsmen.

HOW OLD IS GIBBONS?
Birth Records Show That st. Paul Fighter Has Passed His 33rd Birth day and Is Going on 34

St. Paul, Minn., July 16.-Here is the correct answer to a question that has long perplexed fight fans and sporting editors--How old is Tommy Gibbons, the St. Paul heavyweight pugilist, who meets Jack Bloomfield, in England late this month?
 The "official' records of the ring say he is all the way from 30 to S5 years old; just before his fight with Champion Jack Dempsey a year ago, he said he had just passed his e9th birthday.
 But the only actual official records. on file in the health department of St. Paul, porused today by the Asso- ciated Press show that he was born here March 70. 1891, and thus has passed his 33rd birthday.

BALL PLAYERS ARE !. .SUPERS7|T|OUSL0T
Even Brainy Stars Seem to
 Believe in Jinx

Ball players are supersttiors lot.
 It is really surprising how far some of the brainy stars Of the game permit themselves to be carried away with the jinx stuff,
 Along these lines, it would be q difficult matter 10 convince tho sec- ond basemen of the American league that some one hasn't put the double curse on that position. The things that have happened to the second seekers in the Johnsonian organization this year reads like a hospital list from the battlefield. Second base is an important cog in the infield defense. Things hap pen fast and furious around the key stone sack.
 A majority of the double plays are pivoted at second base. The loss of fraction of second in execnt- ing play often spells ruin. Failure to complete double play is often the deciding factor in a ball game.
 Drop star second sacker out of a teams lineup and immediately the club suffers. One need only glance back over the records of certain American league clubs for such proof.
 Five American league teams have felt the handicap of losing a star second baseman through injury. An other suffered because former vet eran star couldn't strike his stride.
 At different times since the opening of the season New York has been without Ward, Cleveland without Stephenson, Washington minus liar ris. St. Louis McManus and the Ath- letics for a time missed Bishop be- cause of Hines.
 Early in the spring Derril Pratt, Is pounds lighter than last year, seemed set for a big season as a fielder. Pratt always could hit. This season he failed at the bat.
 Eddie Collins at Chicago and Bill Wambsganss of Boston are the only two regulars at the position who have not suffered ecause of illness or injury this year.
 Last season both Collins and Wambsganss were out for weeks be- cause of injuries. So that the last two years have been tough ones on the American league second seekers.
 That is why balplayers as whole, and second basemen in particular. think the position is jinXed.
 Since ball players are mighty su- perstitious. if would be a difficult matter to convince them 10 the con trary.
