when he won the $4,000 Illinois
Owners Handicap in a nose finish
with the lightly-weighted filly, At

Carrying the heavy burden of 1876
pounds. Indian Runner was hard driven
to achieve his victory. He ran the mile
and sixteenth in 1:46. Polydorus, which
shared favor in the betting with Indian
Runner. was third, with Camp Douglas,
owned by Alderman John j. Coughlin
of Chicago, fourth, in the field of nine.
When Owner Wood returns to his
home tomorrow he will have check in
his pocket for S., 1900, the winning share
of the purse, which had a gross value
of $9,025. The race was restricted to
oW1lClo VI Gus.
Indian Runner paid 1922 to win,
$462 to place and $34O to show. The
place price on At Top was $536 with

AS the field swept around the stretch
turn, Indian Runner began to move up
on the pace-making Evergold on the
outside. Going into the stretch the
winner went to the front, but At Top,
carrying only 95 pounds, came up with
a tremendous rush and Jockey Upton
was forced to swing his whip to keep
Indian Runner in front. In another
stride or two At Top probably would

M Walkers plans for the future
are indefinite. That he will
fight again, and shortly, if a
good proposition is made to him, is
certain. Mickey is practically down to
bed rock. Fighting is the only thing
he knows how to do and Mickey must
fight or starve.
The Toy Bulldog, Clipped here
and there from long and hard
usage in the ring, still has several
good fights left in his system.
Walkers record is bright page in
the history of the prize ring during
the last decade. The grim little fight
ing man has furnished plenty of thrills
and while he has made mistakes now
and then they were honest ones. Sew
eral times he has gone out of his way
to pick on fellows much bigger and
heavier than himself.
That he was beaten by Harry Greb
in a rather one-sided battle only speaks
volumes for the courage of the little
fellow. He took battering round after
kround and then came back in the final
stanza to beat off his tormentor and
hold him even in one of the most thrill
ling fights the fans ever saw before the
memorable Jack Dempsey-Louis Firpo
scrap.
Two Summers ago Mickey threw the
gauntlet down to Jack Sharkey and
came mighty close to upsetting the
latter. He bobbed and weaved with
such dexterity that Sharkey missed
more rights and lefts than in any other
fight Of his career.

this same movement takes place over

And naturally it is impossible
to give all this time to tOurna-

There are not so many jobs left
for the worker who might have to

fighter. He is the leader of the

do for him to appear untidy. Hence
the immaculate whiteness of his

The Ghetto-bred Chicagoan is not
setting a new style. Years before
Ross was ever known in the fstic
world Tony Canzoneri sported whites

contrasted with the light garments
so strikingly that prominent artist
sought out Tony and asked him to
pose for a painting.
The resemblance between Ross
and Canzonei ends with clothes.

three years and during his career
has held two major and two junior
titles-the featherweight, lightweight,
junior light and junior welterweight.
Ross had final tuning up for the
Canzoneri match, to be held here
early next month, by buffeting
Johnny Farr all over the ring.
Barney came through safely and
will soon report to Max Schmeling's
camp at Lake Swannanoa, N. j.
Canzoneri has been taking things
easy at Hot Springs. The former
champion has been through a hard
campaign and made some long jumps
between matches. He needed rest
badly. Scars over the eyes required
time to heal properly. When the

amount of fighting blood to a

Any leather thrower who can push

The heavyweight end is lucky

will draw out one Of the biggest crowds
in several years when they meet.

Bl Angry Boxing Rivals Ran Tourney
CONFERENCE IS SET
FOR TUESDAY NIGHT
Several Changes Proposed
in System of Play for
Evening Star Event.
|INAL plans for what prom
~ ises to be the hottest scrap

"INAL plans Tor what prom
X ises to be the hottest scrap
yet for the horseshoe pitch
ing championship of greater
Washington will be made next
Tuesday night at meeting of the
boss ringer throwers of Virginia,
Maryland and the District.
The meeting will be held at the
home of George C. Thompson at
Falls Church and will give the iron
flippers opportunity to test Thomp-
sons new courts, the very latest
thing in their line.
Thompson's fancy layout will be
christened officially with the holding
of the Northern Virginia champion
ship, probably during the week of
August 81. Dates for this event and
for the Southern Maryland. District Of
Columbia and Metropolitan Washing
ton events, all under the auspices of
The Evening Star, will be settled at the
conference Tuesday night.
NNE of the important matters to
occupy the meeting is the ques-
ton of admitting horseshoe
fingers from outside the metropol-
itan area to the Virginia and Maryland
tournaments. 1t has been suggested
that some Of the stronger players of
Southern Virginia and Western Mary
land be invited to compete.
1t has been suggested, too, that
new system of competition be en-
ployed, modelled after the national
championship held recently at Chicago,
in which qualifying round was played,
with the survivors meeting in a round
robin play-off. Heretofore all play in
The Stars championship has been on
an elimination basis.
OF no little concern to the present
champion of Northern Virginia and
holder of the metropolitan title, Clay
ten c. Henson, is still another proposed
change. 1t has been asked that Henson
be called upon to defend the State title,
a procedure which has not been fol-
lowed in cases where State champion
also has won the metropolitan title.
With the big crown to wear, metropcl-
itan champs have left minor honors to
others.
TT has been Henson's hope that the
Northern Virginia title fall this
year to his friend. George Thomp-
son, whom the youngster from Arling-
ton defeated last season in the Virginia
final in the greatest uphill struggle in
the history of The Star championships.
now in their fifth season. Thompson
won the first three games and Henson
the last four.
For four years Thompson has been
leading contender for the Virginia
title and it was reckoned this time,
with Henson out of the way, he would
be the best bet to win. But the Falls
Church veteran recently has changed
his style Of pitching and with a new
grip only half mastered he is an ex-
tremely uncertain performer.
