SPECTATORS Think
CHR|STNER Dove"
Heavyweight Claims Leg Was
Hurt as Mickey Walker
Knocks Him Out.

BY the Associated Press.
OHICAGO, November 90
Some of the approximately
~ 1000 who went to the Coli
scum last night to see
Mickey Walker fight K. o. Christ
ner today believed the world mid
dleweight champion knocked the
Akron rubber man clear out of
the ring-but most of them har-
bored a suspicion that Christner
landed among the spectators, at
least partly, by his own efforts.
The finish of what was listed as q
1O-round encounter in which Walker
gave away 3534 pounds in his second
raid among the heavyweights, came
after SO seconds of fighting. Walker
charged out of his corner, Smacking
Christner with a hard right to the jaw
and q left to the head, dropping him
in front of the three members Of the
Illinois State Athletic Commission, Gen.
John v. Clinnin, Fred Gardner and
George Getz. He arose at the count OF
three and retreated to the opposite side
Of the ring where another left hook
second and top strands of the ring.
Claims Leg Injury.
Christner landed among the specta-
tors and rolled over the press table,
falling to the floor, where he lay as the
officials tolled Of 20 seconds. Under
Illinois rules, fighter knocked from
the ring Is entitled to 20 seconds dur
ing which to return.
At the end of the count he staggered
TO his feet and struggled through the
ropes, hmping on his right leg. He
was helped to his corner where he said
he could not continue. The fight was
awarded to Walker.
Gen. Clinnin would make no state
ment as to whether the commission
planned to investigate the bout. Gin
nin's only comment was:
"Chr1stner, If his leg Is injured as
seriously as he believes, certainly has
been paid for his efforts. Both we're
boxing for a percentage Of the gate.
and the meager crowd promised o small
split"
Walker and his manager. Jack
get the o6icial verdict, then hustled
from the ring.
Take 1t as Joke.
Even before the decision was an
nounced off1cially, the crowd u1illed
down toward the ring shouting fake"
and booing and kissing. There were
no attempts at disorder, however, and
the spectators walked slowly out of the
building, actually laughing at the out
come Of the bout.
Whatever the customers thought of
the main bout, they apparently enjoyed
the semi-f1nal hugely. Battling Bozo-
born William Curtis Hambright- Biz
mingham, Ala, combined a comical
style with surprising effectiveness to
gain q decision over Harry Dillon of
winnipeg. Manitoba, in eight rounds
Dillon failed to land q solid blow on
the grinning, swaying. bobbing South
erner. while BoEo dashed out at inter-
walls to score almost as he pleased.

OF the 1000 midshipmen were al
lowed the right to buy two tickets
II they wished them, the tickets
to the midshipmen being in addi-
ton to their own seats However,
less than half of those who have
the right to subscribe to tickets
have do so.
The seats allotted TO the two
services are in the corners of the
Yankee Stadium. About half of
those assigned to the Navy will
yield a fair view to the occupants,
who will have a diagonal outlook
over the field. The others are be-
hind the goal line and are very
poor.
However, local officials and serv-
ice people In general make no COM
plant as to the assignment Of seats,
as those toward the center are
bringing q much higher price, and
the proceeds are for the unem-
ployed. As the center seats sell for
$50 apiece, the acceptance Of corner
seats by the services means an adj
dition to the fund Of S45 for every
seat,

Art as Prophet
Bats Cool 1000

"You won't see me In o Washing
ton uniform next year." predicted
Art Shires following a little gather
ing with friends in Chicago one day
last July. Looks like I'm not want
ed on the club"
The prediction gives the erstwhile
National flrst-sacker top rating in
ranks of prophets, for he has been
sold down the river. Washington
Yesterday turned him over to Mil
waukee Of the American Association
for $4,000 and nothing more-de-
clares President Clark Griffith. All
major league outfits had waived
claim to Whataman.
That Shires' transfer TO Milwau-
kee, q st. Louis Browns farm, has
any connection with the Goslin for
-Crowder deal, nego-
tiated by washington and st. Louis
last June, Is denied by the heads OF
both big league clubs.
The Nationals procured Shires
from the White Sox on June IA In
exchange for Pitcher Garland Brax-
ton and Catcher Benny Tate. Art
for a time did well as understudy to
Joe Judge, but faded from the pic
ture when the regular first baseman
recovered from leg injury and re-
turned to the initial sack.
