BERG LOSES BOUT
Latest and Most Impressive Light
weight Importation From England
is Beaten.

Chicago. Aug. IS Rp-Jack Berg.
the latest and most impressive
lightweight importation from Eng
land, has met his master in Billy
Petrolle. the Fargo Express"
His lightning rights finding their
mark almost at ease, Petrolle won
by a technical knockout over the
Englishman in the fifth round of a
scheduled 10-round match before
5000 spectators at Mills Stadium
last night. BY his victory, Petrolle
has been promised a match with
Sammy Mandell for the lightweight
title by Promoter Jim Mullen of
Chicago.
Only his gameness and willingness
to take it, carried Berg to the fifth
round. when his seconds mercifully
tossed In the towel. Petrolle caught
Berg on the chin with a crushing
right in the first round, flooring him
for a count of nine. But Berg came
up and went down nine times before
before the gong ended the round.

revealed by Manager Anastasiox.
Both teams will rest on the line
ups that have been representing
their clubs this season. Both will be
the strongest combinations possible.
The contest Is scheduled to take
place at 3 o'clock and one Of the
best crowds of the present season
is expected out to watch the battle.
Herbie Sautter will be behind the
bat. He Is the selection Of the Fall

vociferous in their claims for their
team. The Rangers have met teams
this season that have been fully as
good as those met by the Falcons.
Each club has an enviable record
in the won and lost column with
the Rangers having a slight edge in
the proportion OF victories over the
Falcons,
Bitter claims have been made by
both sides and it will be in the game
tomorrow that the correctness of
these will be proved. The Rangers
have been considered beneath their
class by the Falcons while members
Of the Ranger team have resented
this feeling deeply. The battle to-

morrow promises to develop into one
of blood between the two contesting
mines.
Both managers plan to have their
best lineups in the field. Atwood
will probably start for the Falcons
with Casey or an unnamed pitcher
occupying the mound for the Rang
ers. Casey is a comparative young
ster whose worth this year has been
great. He has been beaten in only
one game in which he has started
and he will probably get the assign
ment against the Falcons tomorrow.
In the agreement between Managers
John Cabay and Frank Anastasio.
