rounds in New York.
Next to that Sharkey seemed
to me to be going best during
his championship fight with
Schmeling, but something buck
led in the man and made him
begin to swing recklessly there
toward the last, Just as he did
in the Miami fight with Scott
last February.
He fought Dempsey cautious
ly, the only way a man ever
dare fight the Tiger that
Dempsey was, but he didn't
wax vicious for a moment, just
seeming to throw his blows and
then stand back to see what ef-
feet they had. What many fans
who have watched Sharkey
from time to time have always
hoped for was that Sharkey
might get steamed up and come
through to Slashing victory
without becoming hysterica1
and doing some childish thing
that even amateurs don't do.
And Sharkey deserves to get
one such fight out of his sys-
tenn. He has much redeeming
to do and this Campolo spot
is his chance. BY proving
against Campolo that he can
keep a level head as far as
the fight goes and hew down
the tall Latin, Sharkey will
enter his winter fight with
Stribling at Miami with the
good wishes of more Americans
than he has at the moment,
and perhaps rate go with
Schmeling next summer.
believe he rates that as
matters stand now, because of
the unfortunate ending of their
last meeting. but bum shoWings
against Campolo or Stribling
will do much to take the edge
off what sentiment there still
remains in his behalf by those
who knoWsfe was far ahead of
Make when the foul blow
came.

He served Jones the entire

something to be considered as
part of a daily diet-so the
waiter informed in his Alsaclan

A 15-round fight in any divi.
sion is more likely to establish
the real abilities of the competi-
tors than the shorter 10 or eight
round fights, and in heavier
classes. particularly in the near.
championship bouts, I believe
the fighters owe it to the Gus
toners to agree to go the longer
route, or as much of it as they
can.
To my way of thinking, too
many scraps of the current
times are gauged along the 10
round pace, and many Of these
fights prove too little, often with
both men still on their feet and
neither forced to the limit to
earn the money involved.
The shorter routes are not al
ways the fault Of the fighters,
or the promoters, either, certain
States permitting only six, eight
or 10 rounds. Because Jack
Sharkey and Victorio Campolo
are going in for a 15-canto en-
gagemeht in New York tomor-
row night, their bout should
prove some very definite facts,
so far as the heavyweight class
is concerned. One of the two
should be on the floor or very
much out margined at the end
of that time. Something de-
cisive can happen in Is rounds.
That is not always so at 10.
Needless to remind you here,
Sharkey more or less stands at
the crossroads in this fight. He
can i'll afford to muff this one
and he can i'll afford to have it
end in some unseemly manner.
No foul claim will be permitted
but there are other ways in
which fighters can sour a fight,
such as not standing up and
boxing, or slugging, or in other
wise .evading the issue.
Should the Sailor Man make
anything but a clean defeat of
Canpolo. he might as well lay
aside his gloves. The public
isn't any too sympathetic with
him at best, because Of an in
different record, and he's got
to redeem himself tomorrow or
else be contented to sink away
into the limbo Of not only a
has-been but a never-waS.
Briefly, Sharkey has every
thing to lose in facing the tall
Argentine and the latter has
little to lose but everything to
gain in his fight. I would say
the onuS is on Sharkey to make
this a good fight, for if he leses
he's through and If Campolo
loses he simply will have been
delayed a bit and the world will
say he wasn't quite ready to
take on Jack. That is the cost
of fame versus ambition.
Folks who have been looking
at Sharkey over the last three
years have come to the point
where they know it is the risk.
lest thing in the world to try to
forecast what he will do In q
fight no matter how mediocre
his opposition may be. He is the

CANDIDATES

team, so strong, made an impos'
ing picture against the open
background Of the Lincoln Park
Stadium. A bright sun glowered !.
down on the field, bringing out
the vivid blue Of the players
uniforms that much more.
Coach Mike Kelley, q picture Of
earnestnesS, was seen all over the
field directing groups here and
there in the working out Of his
system of football practice.
Running and tackIing was
gone through by one group.
Passing and punting by an.
other, then scrimmage be-
tween two groups before every
body was sent to the show
ers for the day.
Seriousness predominates the
entire atmosphere at Eastern this
wear. Coach Kelley, to mention
first, is very serious while every
candidate on the huge squad Is
likewise because Of the import
ance attached to the development
of q winning team at the institu-
tion this year.
They know, as Coach Mike has
so instilied into them, that their
school must work to do things
in football, and they know that
to do great things they must
show Coach Mike that they are
willing to help him in his truly
difficult problem in putting over
q winner.
Thus, the nothing but business
like attitude in the practice se&
sions every day at the Stadium.
Eastern and Coach Kelley have
a job on their hands and both
are fully aware Of the fact.
'Tnexperience tells them All
about Eastern this year." says
Coach Mike. 'sNOt one ON the
squad knows what it is all about
i'm the matter Of real inside foot

the large squad who looks promis-
ing. He is Phil Corridan, stoclSy
back, who seems to be both o
good plunger and shifty runner.
Harry ColevaS also looks good. He
is another back, heavy and fast.
All in all, however, Eastern is

the least. Coach Kelley might
have q diamond in the rough in
the combination as a whole, but
time will only tell just what he's
got, what they do, and how he

BOSTON, Mass, Sept. "a. -
Though still buried in second
division mediocrity, Boston's big
league baseball representatives are
doing a financial comeback.
The Braves, under the able di-
rection of Bill McKechnie, have
Jared particularly we'll at the turn
stiles this year.
A recent check-up revealed that
the National Leaguers have played
to almost half million paid
home admissions and have en-
joyed a $15O,000 profit.
The Hubmen, who have
clinched sixth place, drew a near
capacity turnout Of $4,000 in q
game with New York early this
season.
This years paid attendance ex.
ceedS any ever recorded in the
history of the Braves. And tkat
goes for the 1914 season when
George Stallings' gla diator
flashed one of the most Sensa-
tional spurts in baseball history
to win a pennant.
The Red SOx, with
chronic tail-end layout, have
also realized q profit, but
the exact figures have not
been released.
Both clubs, it is claimed, will
endeavor to show their apprecia-
ton of this patronage another
year. The Braves particularly
are expected to fortify their line
up during the. winter.
Two old-timers have played an
important part in removing the
redskins from the National
League baSemen.
The incompatible Rabbit Ma
ranville has inStilled life and am
bition into a hitherto mediocre
ball team and old Tom Zachary,
New York Yankee caSt-off, has
surprised with some noteworthy
box performances. Youthful SEN
sations in their respective leagues,
Joe Cronin and Walter Berger
once played on the same school
boy team around San Francisco.
Berger, rookie, has batted 81
home runs for the Braves this
season and Cronin not, only has
developed into miracle man
shortStop but is also topping dot
$50 with the fail.
That Earl Clark, fleet BOs-
ton Brave Outfielder and q
Washington sandIOt product,
may be traded during the
impending winter is a report
going the rounds here. John
McGraw is said to be par
ticularly sold on the right
hand hitting capital kid.
The Louisville Colonels, Amer
ican Association champions, have
been lined UP to replace Wash
ington in a 12-galne transforming
invasion Of Havana, Cuba. The
Griffmen were ruled out when
Commissioner Lands announced
that no more than three players
of one club could show in such a
series.
Montreal Of the international
League, boasts a ball park
equipped with voice amplifiers
and other modern improvements.
Detroit, Cleveland, st. Louis, Bos-
ton might copy such an idea.
Young Werber, who got $4,000
for signing a Yankee contract
last spring, will battle for New
York's regular shortfield assign
ment in 1891.
