HANDLING OF BOXER
CALLED ATROC|OUS
Argentine, Who Should Be
Near Top Now, Fighting
for Ring Life.
BY WILBUR WOOD.

n JEW YORK, November 20
NJ Victoria Campolo, who is
4 Y to box Primo Camera in
Madison Square Garden
Friday night for the dreadnaught
championship Cor should it be
deadnaught?), might have been on
the steps leading to the heavy
weight throne by this time had he
not been so woefully mismanage6
after his arrival in this country
more than two years ago.
Had Tex Richard lived, it is likely
Campolo would have been very close to
the top by now. Instead he will be
fighting for his very pugilistic life when
he meets Camera. Rickard would have
seen to 1t that such rare prospect as
Campolo was not destroyed by bad
handling.
1t was not until Campolo was turned
over to the astute Luis Gutierrez that
the Argentine gaucho received any in
telligent consideration. Luis may sue
coed in salveging Campolo If he does,
he will have accomplished a major
managerial feat.
Given Poor Start.
When Campolo came to this country,
with only meager experience in his ma
tive land, he was tossed right in with
one experienced heavyweight after an
other. The big fellow never had a
chance to catch his breath, to find out
what it was all about.
After winning his first fight here,
when Arthur oe Kun fouled him, Cam
polo was put into the ring with Tom
Heeney, a tough, we'll seasoned bird.
This was very hard fight. After
being several times on the verge OF
managed to flatten Heeney in the ninth
round. His next match was with Phil
Scott, whose superior experience en-
abled him to win a close decision over
the Argentinian. The big fellow then
engaged in two extremely vicious en-
counters with Johnny RiSko.
Imagine that as a Queensberry diet
Tor novice! Why, they even had him
matched with Jack Sharkey, and only
the fact that the public refused to fall
fer the fight prevented this Il-advised
match from going through.
Had to Meet Tough Ones.
Campolo has not Jared a great deal
better under the management of Gu
tierrez. However. that hardly can be
charged against Luis. Things had come
to such pass when Gutierrez took
command that Luis was forced to drop
him into matches in which the best
Campolo could expect was the worst of
1t. Either that or nothing.
Maybe Friday nights engagement
with Camera will be the turning point
for the better in the career of the sad
eyed gauchO One cannot helm honfn0
that he finally will get a break in the
luck. He always has taken the worst
OF 1t without complaining He deserves
a little luck. If he once gets starte1
on the right track. Gutierrez probably
will keep him there.

New Coach Likely
For Badger Team

CHICAGO, November 26. - 1t
~ seems rather certain that the
University of Wisconsin VIII
have a new foot ball coach in 1882.
Glenn Thistlethwaite has failed to
produce the desired results in five
years. and Badger alumni are de-
manding a new deal for the Cardi-
nal forces. 1t has been rumored
that Thistlethwaite already has Sc
cured a new position for the 1882
season.
Wisconsin's record for the 1881
season is not SO bad. The Badgers
won three and lost two conference
games; were tied by Auburn and
beaten by Pennsylvania. Coaches
have survived after worse seasons
than that but Wisconsin followers
do not believe he has secured the
results possible with the material
at his disposal
One critic. writing of Wisconsin,
said: wisconsin this year IS a
typical Badger team. One Of those
teams that seems to have every
thing the first couple OF games Of
the season and then suddenly ex-
plodes with q loud pop"

n YOT a great deal has been heard
of Jack Whalen, United States
singles and sweepstakes cham
pion, this season, but take 1t
from Tad Howard, If any one bowler
rates to be called a favorite in the
Dixie Sweepstakes, which will be held
Saturday, it is the tall pinman of the
Rendezvous and Farnan's Bowling
Shoe teams.
Tad, who was in the bowling game
when most of the present day stars
were playing around In rompers, doesn't
often venture an opinion on any event
and IN a stakes dotted with stars he's
taking a chance, but the rotund Rem
devious proprietor is sure he's not
making a mistake in figuring Whalen
in the money.
:. JACK" asserts Tad, "is a-what do
you call it-inspired bowler. Last
year, with those 1000 bucks star
ing him in the face, he came out OF
nowhere to win the National Sweep
stakes And how about his 435 set IN
the N. D. B. C. singles?
Jacks been sick NEST of the sea-
son but he's okay now. watched
him the other night and he looked
good rolling a BIT set" Last night ne
got 371.
Mind you. the fellow that wins has
got to beat Jack Whalen."
TAD is one of the very few who have
l. ventured to select their favorite in
the big-money event Saturday.
Most bowling observers, as is natural
say the fellow with the hot hand
will win.
Whalen, however. rates serious con-
sideration despite his few outstanding
feats of the present season. JACK Is
one of those bowlers who can work him
self to a peak apd then leave the rest
Of the field fiat. To win the National
Sweepstakes last year he changed his
delivery three times, and this versa
tility may be the factor that may carry
him to victory Saturday. Three i've
game sets on three different sets OF
alleys-Arcadia, Lucky Strike and Con-
vention Hall-are what the boys are
up against.
OSCAR OEHLER, who helps Chick
~ Hoffman manage the bowling in
dustry out PetWorth way, has been
watching Partner Chick keep him IN
the background all season with his 118
average in the District League.
Now Oscar has it on Chick. oscar
isn't the best bowler in the world, but
yesterday he rolled perfect fiat game

Ollie Webb and Tip O'Neill as the local
bowlers to accomplish the feat OF shoot

LTHE most important stroke in
golf is the stroke that puts
the ball into the cup. 1t
may come from any distance
or any position, in or out of hazard,
but the stroke which wins is that which
finds the bottom CT the cup"
The speaker was Dave Thompson, the
little Scot from Montrose, who has sold
himself and his methods of teaching
golf so thoroughly to members Of the
Washington Golf and Country Club
that Davie has one of the two or three
best professional jobs about the Capital.
Davie knows how important is that
stroke which puts the ball into the bot
tom of the tin because he has the con-
venient and convincing habit of knock
ing them in from all angles and posi-
tions, on or Of the putting green, day
in and day out, in a fashion which has
convinced him that the most important
single stroke in the game CT golf is thai
which finishes the hole. Ard Davie
himself is a great hole finisher.

A man rose in the rear Of the hall,
walked up to the railing in front OF the
dais upon which the board sat and
bowed first to the board and then to
the audience. MIR. Chairman-gentle-
men: My name is John w. Gagan, a

behalf Of my clients, desire formally to
protest to this honorable board against

CATION District and will state my reasons

Gagan Immediately proceeded to do
so, painting to his auditors precisely the
picture that Nate Tichenor had painted
to him, challenging Lon Morton to gain
say one single legal statement. Gagan
spoke simply, earnestly, arraying his
facts in logical sequence.
When he had finished his address
Gagan bowed to the board and started
to leave the chamber. There was silence
until he was half way down the aisle
then a storm of misses and boos broke
around him. Gagan looked back as he
reached the door and saw that Silas
Babsm was on his feet, his hand raised
for silence.
