Watson Proves
Loving Fighter
By Huggir1g EN-

Fight fans of Douglas will be in
terested in story printed in The
Tucson Citizen last Friday evening
concerning fight conducted there
on Thursday night. Gene Watson,
touted to be one of the Pacific coast
fast ones, fought in Douglas We'd
nesday night, Feb. % The story
from Tucson. very accurately pictures
the action Of the "coast whirlwind
here except that he also insisted on
hanging on to Tommy ElkS every
time he got a chance The Citizen
sports Ws4ter said of that fight:
,Pipi Fuentes gathered well earn
ed decision over Gene Watson in the
Cabinet arena main event here last
night. -
Watson refused to fight. He COW
cred and backed Fuentes could not
force the Los Angeleno to open up
and he wrestled, thumped and pulled
his way to a verdict. Fuentes took
seven of the eight rounds of the fight
and split the other one when he could
not keep Watson from hanging on
1t had been reported here that Wat
son held an engagement to fight on
Friday night in Phoenix but the Phoe-
nix paper carries no story of it if he
did. Losing at Phoenix may have
changed the program. At least he
did not fight under the name of Wat
son as there was no fighter by that
name in the Phoenix program.
Fans here who have heard of the
action of Watson insist that such a
policy does not argue for genuine
sport and they say it explains the
reason for actions described by the
Tucson sports writer when he says
that Watson refused to fight" They
point out that no fighter could be in
prime condition fighting every night
with an all day travel between the
arenas. They also urge that such
action reduces the game to meal
ticket basis and one not likely to
encourage people ito spend their
money believing they will get entire
tainment when they attend program

WHO WoN THE WARE

The Philadelphia faction seems to
be in the saddle now and there never
has been any great political love or
devotion between the Philadelphia
clique and the Myrick Forest Hills
faction
Like most Of The other rows in
which Tilden figured, however, this
one seems to be another in which no
big winner emerged unless Tilden's
friends want to claim that the player
actually was after Myrick'S scalp.
The change in the Craftsmanship of
the Davis cup committee can be
scored as a victory for Tilden, but the
association can also chalk up one it
Tilden decides to remain in this coun-
try and play through the American

It is apparent that some concessions

VICTORY FOR TILDEN


Resignation of Julian S. Myrick as
chairman of the United States Lawn
Tennis association is considered among
tennis people as final and decisive
victory for William T. Tilden after a
long political battle with the Myrick
faction
AS president of the association,
Myrick became a commanding figure
in American tennis and even after he
thad stepped down from the presi-
dency he continued to be- a, power
through the office of chairman Of the
Davis cup committee, which might be
considered the state department OF
the national tennis government.
In recent years, since he was sue
ceeded as president of the associa-
ton, Myrick did not rule openly as a
dictator of American tennis, but it
was no secret that his word was al
most final and that the men in the
presidents chair had to do lot of
telephoning before they took any inn
portant action.
While Tilden's fights against the
association were accepted as Til
den versus association, those ON
the inside knew that it was TiIden
against Myrick and that Myrick
usually got his man when he went
after him.
MOST RECENT BATTLE
The most recent fight started when
Myrick's committee announced that
the American team of Davis cup chal-
lengers would play through the elimi-
nations in the American zone.
Tilden revolted. He said he already
had arranged for a tour of Europe
with Frank Hunter and that the
American challehgers should play
through the, European zone elinina-
tions.
Tilden said he would go to Europe
with Hunter regardless Of any action
taken by the association and it looked
like victory for Myrick when the
association voted to play the American
team in the American zone.
Then some peacemakers apparently
