FIGHT BRINGS FANS
OUT OF DOLDRUMS
SeIIout Is Likely, Although

Stirred from their lethargy by
prospects of a knock down, drag
out battle between two first-claSS
fighting men, boxing fans rushed
for the ticket windows. A virtual
sell-out - 10000 seats was in
sight.
Ross position as a 2 to favorite
was due, in part at least, to the fact
that the youngSter outpointed Petrolle
in Chicago last March, but New York

val can be held at such odds against
him.
Particularly do they remember the
night he fought Eddie Ran, deadly

warned that he must watch PetrolleS
LETT hand, that the Duluth veterans
southpaw hook was sheer poison. Faith
fully, Eddie die as he was told. For
Ave rounds, he steered clear of that left,
never giving Petrole clear shot with
1t. Suddenly the veteran thudded home
q terrific right hand punch to Rams
chin and the Pole went down and out
in the sixth round.
Ross. of course, is more polished,
far cleverer performer than Ran, but
he'll need to watch not only Billy's left,
but his right as well.
The match was made at 142 pounds,
Petrolles best poundage When they
fought at Chicago Billy undoubtedly
was weakened by the effort he had to
make to cut his weight down to 1877
pounds. Ross probably won't scale
much over 1862 pounds.

ball one ride after another out of the

Klein. Babe Herman, Hack Wilson. Bill
Terry, the Waner brothers, Chick
Hafey, Floyd Vaughn, Wally Berger,
Mel OFT and George Davis.
Those guys will get nothing but bad
balls to hit at when I'm up there,
said Bush, who never can figure why
the Cubs lose a game. And out OF
the whole bunch of them, that fellow
Terry is the worst. I've been pitching
'em up now for 10 full seasons and he's
the hardest man to get out. He's TOO

"A team to win the 1884 National

the Mudcat. With the new ball,

thing: You won't see so many sacri-

bunt pop flies to short and stop trying
sacrifices until they get the exact
