F|TzLAST BR|TON
TO ANNEX HONORS
Tom Was a Baby When Ruby
Robert Dropped Title
to JeffrieS.
By the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, April Through Tom
Heeney. erstwhile New Zealand black
smith, the British Empire hopes to re-
cover the world heavyweight boxing
championship which she so successfully
maintained in the ripping bare-knuckle
days of yore.
Only once since the inception of the
modern mode of fisticuffs has subject
of his majesty the King wore the laurel
of pugiliStic supremacy. This honor
fell to the gangling legged son OF Corn
wall, Ruby Bob FitZsimmons, who cap
tured the title from Jim Corbett, the
bank clerk, and lost 1t to Jim Jeffries,
the boilermaker.
When Fitzsimmons on June 9, 1899.
was being counted out in the eleventh
round of his championship battle with
Jim Jeffries at Coney Island, New York,
Thomas Heeney, pink-fisted infant OF
81 days, lay in his makeshift crib In
the "outback" country of New Zealand.
That sturdy product Of the antipo-
dean open spaces has become today
what some of the observers think Is
Britain's man of pugilistic destiny. In
the scheduled battle for the worlds
title between Heney and Gene Tunney
in July, whether 1t be over the 15-round
route in New York or 20 rounds in old
London, Heeney at least will have that
golden opportunity which has been de-
MED British born boxers for more than
three decades.
And Britishers the world over are
expectantly awaiting the time when the
plodding smithy will attempt to forge
for himself fistic crown.

TILDEN PLAYS ROLE
OF goodwill ENVOY
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April 2.-The Mexi-
cans have acclaimed Big Bill Tiiden as
new ambassador of good viii" as he
leads his tennis charges up the heights
OF Mexico City for the opening round Of
the Davis Cup campaign this week.
It may now be revealed, therefore,
that it was precisely and principally
with the idea of entering on a good
viii tourney that Tilden forsook the
stage, threw over his personally IA
vored plan Of going abroad early In the
Spring and concentrated his tennis
playing and coaching efforts on the
American zone competition.
II isn't SO much that the American
tennis authorities fear their team, with
or without Tilden. would meet much
opposition In the American zone. Mex
leo, China and either Canada or Japan
do not make up q threatening barrier
French cup holders TO worry much
about.
But the best minds of American ten
mis- decided 1t to be automatically and
politically desirable to throw their full
strength into the preliminary play
rather than to toss second-string play
ers into the early competition and
thereby run undue risks or be crit
icized
In effect Tilden was told that he
owed 1t TO the sport. to the National
and TO the cause of better international
relations TO play through the American
zone and captain the American team.
When It was put to me on tlht
basis. what else could do but &C.
cept?" Big Bill said.

GREAT RACING STRING
IS SOLD BY SINCLAIR

PHILADELPHIA. April 2 (P.-The
great racing stable of Harry F. Sinclair,
oil magnate, has been purchased by
James Irwin. local Republican politician
and contractor.
Irwin announced that the deal had
been closed month ago and that an
other Philadelphian was associated with
him. He declined, however, TO divulge
the name of his partner or reveal any
of the details of the transaction.
Another Philadelphian, who does
not wish his name used, and myself
Fave bought the Sinclair stock" said
irwin.
Reports that Sinclair contemplated
selling his stable had been current in
racing circles since his horses were
barred from Maryland tracks by the
racing commission of that State be-
cause of his connection with the Tea
pot Dome oil investigation.
Local horsemen expressed the opin-
ion that the sale would nullify the
action of the racing commission and
that the horses, if entered by Irwin,
would be eligible.
