Fistic fans at Tomlinson Hall Mon

that supplied action in every bout

much credit for smart matchmaking,
There were six scraps and the hall
was in an uproar much of the time
as the spectators shouted and in
other ways applauded the work OF
the knuckle busters.
Joe Packo, Toledo, outpointed Ed
die Welsh, South Bend in the main
go of ten rounds in an encounter
that found both sluggers bleeding
from cuts about the face. The rivals
used short, stiff punches that car
ried plenty Of weight and the sock
ing was hard all the way.
Packo won by piling up points in
the later rounds, and he was giving
Welsh plenty when the scrap ended
1t was an interesting fight.
In the semi-wind-up Howard Nc.
Claim, New Albany, and Kewpie
Trimble, Chicago, fought eight dizzy
rounds that had the fans ''goofy"
with excitement. On numerous oc-
casions the boys stood toe to toe and
exchanged punches. 1t was one OF
the most thrilling scraps ever staged
at Tomlinson Hall. Both youths
were cheered wildly as they left the
ring. 1t was a draw.

"Stuffy' McInnis is playing in his

Vic Aldridge, who was pitching for

T~7HINE'S show at Tomlinson
~ Hall Monday night was a
corker. The fighters fought,
which is what they are paid to
do. How the fans do like to see
real blows struck! And there
were plenty in every bout. Each
mauler looked as though he meant
business.
Another pleasing feature was
the clocklike precision with which
the bouts were run off. There
was no delay between fights. The
promoters are to be congratulated
for putting on high class enter
tainment. The battlers also are
due for word of commentator
along with their checks.

150.POUND GRID TITLE

The sandIot foot ball season had a
cold ending yesterday for the mem
bers of the Palace Athletic Club team
and several hundred fans who turned
out to see the gridders perform at
Union League Park the last time this
season.
Wintry winds and generally dis
agreeable weather conditions gave the
spectators the chills, while the Ma
tional eleven of Northeast contributed
to the discomfort of the Palace play
ers by trimming them, to =, in the
final clash of the series played for the
150-pound championship of the Dis
trict.
With the title at stake. both teams
put up a game fight, but the Nation
ais. coached by Johnny Bleir and Red
Litkus, were just a shade the better
of the two and proved it by showing
across a touchdown in the opening
period. Sos Colliere was carrying the
ball when the points We're scored.
The Palace gIidders scored their .
points on "A safety in the final session.
when Colliere held the ball behind
the National goal line rather than risk
a blocked kick.
The roster of the new championship
combination includes Miles, Devlin,
Bartlett. Tucci, Slattery. Cudmore,
Murtaugh. Quigley. Cilliers. Jordan,

There are two effective ways to
shoot fouls. either the underhand
toss or overhead loop shot.
In making the underhand toss the
player should place the ball in a posi-
ton a little below his hips and directly
in line with the middle OF his body,
grasping it with slight and equal pres
sure with his fingers. His legs should
be wide apart and his knees bent.
From this position, which is shown on
the left, he can make an easy, natural
shot.
Although players try the stance
shown on the right. namely, standing
erect with the feet together, it is an
awkward one from which to shoot, as
all balance is lost

Matty first pitched for the Taunton,
Mass, club. This was after he had
been pitcher for Bucknell College,
where he had decided that he would
try for professional base ball rather
than for law, or medicine, or COM
merCe.
He was not "a great pitcher when
he went to Taunton and none knew
it better than he did. After leaving
Taunton and going TO Norfolk, Va.
he became very successful. 1t was
then that the New York club was
urged to get him. 1t did. There IS
absolutely no truth in the report that
the New York club Immediately tried
to make a first baSeman out OF nm
and that Matty was ready TO leaNe
New York in disgust. The Giants did
PLAY him at first base, but later.
Matty tried his hand at pitching
game in New York, Jared poorly, as
he lacked control but he was kept by
the club until the end of the season
and then turned back to Norfolk be-
cause Andrew Freedman did not think
his release was worth $1,000. Freed
man was advised that he had better
cling to Matty, but failed to do so.
When a scout of the Cincinnati club
found that Matty had been turned
back to Norfolk he Immediately put
in a draft for Matty for the Cincinnati
club and the great pitcher of the
future became member OF Clncll-
natl.
John T. Brush in the meantime mad
secured the Cincinnati club, and when
he found Amos RuSie was no longer
wanted in New York he made a trade
by which Rusie went to CINCINNATI
and Matty back to New York. Rusle
now is Waterman at the Polo Grounds,
where he made his greatest reputa-
ton, and Matty has passed on. Brush
eventually bought the Giants and had
all the benefit of Mathewson'S career.
Horace Fogel was appointed man
ager of the Giants, and when Matty
failed to win some game or other
which Fogel thought he should have
won he did put the pitcher at first
base, announcing that he was better
first baseman than ever he would be
pitcher. Fogel was let out soon after
ward.
Johnson was pitching away up in
Tacoma in 1906 and in Weiser, Idaho,
the year after. A good friend of the
Washington club-one of the best it
ever had-suggested that Washington
give johnson a trial. They have been
trying him out ever since.
Meanwhile he has established him.
self as the leader Of the American
League pitchers in recent decades as
the winner Of one world series and as
an adjunct to the loss of another, but
he has made a record such as no other
pitcher has made in his circuit in his
period of service.
Johnson's minor league experience
was almost none. because Weiser did
not have a club in organized base ball.
