FLYWE!GHT TITLE
 STILL UNDECIDED
Midget WoIgast and Frankie
 GenarO Fight to a Draw

New York. Dec - lP-.A situa- ton unique in The annals Of boxing has arisen form all attempt to settle the flyweight title dispute between Midget Wolg4st and Frankie Gen. arc.
 Gcnaro still is recognized as champion by the National Boxing Association, and Wolgast continues privileged 10 wear the crown in New York and Pennsylvania. For the meeting of these two title claimants last night produced only q dull I5 round draw.
 A half hearted exhibition with only occasional spurts Of interesting fighting failed 10 strengthen the claim ot either boxer The crowd ot 6,1oy at Madison Square Garden last night cheered and booed, but the expressions Of disapproval seem- ed 10 be the greater About one fourth Of tho spectators left before the finish of the bout.
 Not until tho last three rounds did Wolgasr and Genaro show any signs of their best form as they fought q defensive battle. After d warning by Referee Patsy Haley, the veteran Genaro made d gallant attempt 10 start 4 fight in the clos ing rounds and Wolgast met him or about even terms desite d closet d left eye. WOlgast was exceedingly cautions at the start especially after he ran into d right hand wallop Tn the second round that closed hIs .ye. Genaro seemed 10 have lost t lot Of stamina in his ten years ol milling and could not set the pace.
 The exhibition was so uninspiriug that even the officials could not agree on how 10 award the points for q decision. One judge, picked Genaro and the other voted for Wol@ast while Referee Haley gave It up as bad job and called it a draw. According to the Associated Press score sheet, Genaro's closing squirt gave him a slight margin He was awarded 6 rounds 10 Wolgast' $ five. Four were called even. Genaro weighed III pounds.

Boxing Suffers

Now, for a moment among the sufferers. You can guess quickly what sport underwent the greatest hardshlps and the reason. Boxing was the game and fouls and unsatis- factory fights were the cause Of it's dercliction.
 II started with the fierce fiasco in Miami last February between Jack Sharkey, the Sailor-actor man, and epitomized with the bout under milk fund auspices in New York in which a heavyweight for the first time in history won the championship sit ting down.
 Max Schmeliug. who won from Sharkey while in this reclining posture with his hands low on his abdomen and all the agony Of the LaocoOn group written upon his sWarthy German features. may be a great fighter. He gave the promise when he beat Sekyra. Uzcudun and Risko in uphill battles. But this was too much Coming as it did upon the heels of shady shindies among the boxers the winning Of the worlds title on foul proved too much for eevn the ironclad fans to endure. Boxing fell into low estate. frightened only here and there hy occasional flashes Of spirit.
 Italians marched to the front and center. Bat Battalino drummed out q victory paean upon the willing body of Kid Chocolate to retain the fcatherweight championship. Tony tanzonerl, with a Well-plaCed shove 10 the Whiskers Of Al Singer, earned for himself the lightweight crown. And over the heavyweight mob was cast the huge shadow Of the Gar gantuan Gondola of dear old Venice, Primo Roasta Ribbo Beefo Camera himself.
 A Jewish boy, Maxie Rosenbloom, won the light heavyweight title. Mickey Walker remained king of the middles and took in more territory in his effort 10 obtain q bout with tho German heavy champion. There was brisk trading in the welter d- vision, where Jack Thompson won the title from Jackie Fields. only to pass 1t along. with the help of a larcenous decision, to Tommy Free man.
 But until Schmeling proves him. self master Of the heavyw ights-of such heayyWeights as Young Strib- ling, Camera and others, the best of bad lot, by the way-boxing must remain under q shadow.
 Will Schmellng prove himself an- other Dempsey? Or, in his first fight will he show the world that his resemblance 10 the old Man Mauler is strictly counterfeit?
 The New Year will tell.

Joe Gacek, claimant to the duck pin bowling championship of this city, came through by the skin of his teeth to win the first leg of home and home match with Gebert, champion of Manchester, last night at the Palace Bowling Alleys on Main street. Gacek topped the vis- iting pin toppler by two pins, 118s to 1184.
 The largest crowd of the season was on hand to watch the two stars in action and none was disappoint- led. The match was the closest bat tie fought between any pair on the lanes so far this year and it would be hard to duplicate the fight in any succeeding match.
 Gacek got away to d lead in tho first game but Gebert wiped this out in the second. Gebert had IT pin margin on Gacek in the third but Gacek outstripped Gebert by 4S pins in the fourth. Gebert again took the lead in the fifth game but matters were evened up in the sixth. Gacek barely topped his opponent in the seventh and duplicated in the eighth and ninth with Gebert taking the lead in the tenth.
 Gacek hit a mark of 5S for high single while Gebert's best string was 133. The scores:
 Gacek. 124, 114. 103. 1858, 106, 1O6, 106, 124, 133, 112-11S6.
 Gebert, Ill, 133, 120, no, 127, 104, l01, 118, 131, 129-1IS4.

 Nine Out Of Ten Starts
By WILLIAM BRAUCHER NEA Service Shorts Editor


 This is q story Of the deeds Of Gallant Fox, the champion three year old Of 1880, leading money winner for all time, and the horse that set records hitherto believed impossible
 As q two year old, Gallant Fox was regarded as just a good colt. There was nothing to indicate the son Of Sir Galahad III would attain the majestic heights he finally reached, topping all winnings with $317,S65.
 From April until September he won nine out Of 10 stars in the country'5 most important three year old stake races. He started with the Wood Memorial in April in which he broke the heart Of Crack Brigade. Again the Freak campaigner. From Maryland he was shipped to Kentucky where he won the Derby in a driving rain storm.
 It was in the Belmont that he had his chance against Whichone, cham pion two year old of the season before. Whichone had beaten the Fox as d youngster. but when they met in the Belmont Gallant Fox gained revenge. Not only did the Fox prove his fortitude over dis tance in the mile and a half Bel mont but a short time later won the

New York. Dec. v IP-A test of who amazed the National Hockey League with their 10 to 1 triumph over Toronto Thursday, is the out standing feature of an otherwise dull weekend of big league hockey.
 The Falcons play at home Sum- day night against the Montreal Maroons, whose squad is somewhat bigger and better conditioned than Torontos and who in addition are rated as one of the toughest teams in the league to beat. They now are tied for second in the Canadian group while Detroit is fourth in the American section. but the difference in the standing is only one point.
 The possibilities of changes in the standings are the principal points of interest connected with the other three games on the schedule. all of which look like setup for the strong CT teams The Montreal Canadiens, leaders of the Canadian section, en- certain the Ottawa Senators. who fin last place, in tonight's only game. Tomorrow night Toronto takes It's crippled squad to Chicago while the lowly Philadelphia Quakers play tho New York Rangers.
 The Maroons and Canadiens, to- gether with the idle New York Americans, are locked in a three way battle for the Canadian division lead with the Canadiens ahead by a single point. The Rangers are the same distance ahead of Detroit in the American ~1sion while Chicago has dropped two points behind Boston in the race for first place.
