To MAT REFEREE
Irate Fans Boo Bortnick,
Who Makes Victory Easy
for Ernie Ousek.

~ LUBBERY BENNY BORT
* NICK, who has the unenviable
job of prying wrestlers apart,
- has paved the way for re-
match between Ernie Dusek and John
Katan here in the near future, and
although Benny's pride is taking a
terrific shellacking today, Promoter
Joe Turner's wallet stands an excel
lent chance Of being fattened by
Bortnick's antics last night.
It was Bortnick more than Ernie
who was responsible for Katan's de-
feat last night, in 49h minutes, be-
fore 1900 spectators at Turner'S
Arena. The pudgy arbiter employed
a bit too much enthusiasm in pulling
John away from Ernie. Katan
sprawled on the mat and became an
easy victim to Dusek's climaxing body
press.

In Prime In Early Sos.

7 oOKING into the claim bit
further. it is we'll to remember
that. in the early Dos. John was in his
prime. Fighters went down in one
two, three and four rounds. After the
knockout, there usually was no need
OF counting off the 10 seconds.
AS to the peers statement that, in
the FIFTH round, he broke his hand
yet continued on and won in the
sixth round, that is some claim when
one recalls that, some years later,
John L. fought Jake Kilrain IS
rounds in a bare-knuckle London
prize-ring battle, lasting more than
two hours, and won.
Also, when one recalls that Sulli-
van, about 10 years after the So
called Lonsdale battle, with practi-
cally no training and on the down.
grade, fought, for an hour and 20
minutes with Jim Corbett before be-
ing defeated, it seems surprisingly
strange that a man unknown as a
pugilist could do what Lonsdale claims
to have done to John L. in his prime.

Well Known in New York.

A FTER he won the championship
from Paddy Ryan in the following
year. New York received him with
open arms. He attracted crowds where
ever he went. Sullivan could not have
gone over to New York without being
recognized and there would be hardly
q minute when sports would not be
with him.
That such sporting writers as Rich
ard K. Fox Of the Police Gazette,
"Pete" Donahue, Johnny Eckhardt.
Arthur Lunaley and others would not
have heard John was in the city seems
surprising. But 1t is certain that the
champion would not have made the
pilgrimage alone.
Billy Hogarty. Billy Mahoney, Tom
O'Rourke, Jim Stack, Tom Early, Mike
Clarke and other pals Of John would
know where he was going. Some of
them would be at the fight. And no
matter how it ended. it never could
have been kept secret.

BY JAMES T. SULLIVAN.

~ OSTON. January 29-Lord
- Lonsdale's assertion that he
defeated John L. Sullivan in
~ six rounds in a private fight at
New York in the early 80s was re-
ceived with laughs by Jake Kilrain,
who fought John L. for the champion
ship several years after the supposed
Ionsdale fight.
Jake said it was remarkable that
Lord LonSdale kept the awful secret
all these years. He asked reporter if
he knew any young fellow today who
could knock out the world champion
and never tell any one about it. He
added that the Englishman must be
q very modest man.
There are some things about the
Lonsdale claim that sound bit out OF
line. The English peer says that he
came over here with Charley Mitchell
who was under an assumed name
won the battle. even with broker
hand, and returned the next day.
Evening star., 1937-01-29
So It Was "Jim" Peer Fought.

A LSO that the fight took place in
"A "a riding school owned by Sulli-
van. I think they called it Central
Park" If Sullivan ever owned a rid
ing school, here or in New York, it
would be widely known as place to
gather. And there would have been
stories centering around Sullivan in
such a place that would be we'll re-
membered. And it was Jim" he
fought.
These may seem minor matters
after so years. Without wishing to
disagree too much with the English
man, it Is well to realize that Sui
livan in those early days was as we'll
known in New York as in Boston.
When he knocked out Steve Taylor, a
good fighter, in two rounds, at New
York in 1881, John was hailed as a
great fighter. People swarmed around
him.

veranda, but the central building
or main lodge Is the center OF all
social activities.
In addition to the dining room,
this building has huge lounge In the
center Of which there Is a double
faced log -burning open fireplace. The
lounge Is tastefully and comfortably
furnished and there is always 4 place
to sit down. 1t Is the kind of a room
in which people can feel at home to
knit, to play cards or to chat. And
parents can keep watchful but not
too apparent an eye upon the young
folks on the dance floor OF the ball
room just of the lounge. Along the
whole front OF the main lodge there
Is wide veranda from which is to be
had a fine view Of the open air heated
swimming pool; Lac Beauvert, one Of
the most beautiful lakes in the Cana
dian Rockies; the snow-tipped crown
OF Mount Edith Cavell and the blue
slopes of the Whistler range of
mountains. The veranda is a dandy
place for knitting.
For her motor drives there Is a wide
range Of routes to choose from. The
car can 90 right up to the foot OF the

speed along beside the milky green
waters of the Athabaska River to

seen lots of game such as deer, moose,
black bear and mountain sheep.
There is fine highway away up the

Prefers Informal Dress.
Jasper is honey sort of place
and while 1t accepts men who like
tor do-doll up in boiled shirt
for dinner, it doesn't encourage that
sort OF thing. 1t much prefers the
informal person who wants to wear
soft shirt, and as long as he wears
tie and a coat with it he can be
sure Of being in style
For his goh, Dad has to walk less
than 100 yards from the main lodge
to reach the first tee OF an 18-hole
golf course which ranks among the
first 10 golf courses of the world.
1t will probably encourage the player
to know that If he doesn't break par
on the course, neither has anybody
else and some of the most expert
golferB have tried.
For his fishing, the angler has only

full mess Of trout in either place he
had better give up fishing. Maligne
Lake Is a perfect speckled trout area
and many fisherman says the
streams and lakes Of the Tonquin
valley can't be beaten for rainbow
trout. And there's heap Of grand
scenery at both places to boot.
The young folks problem at Jasper
ISN'T to md something to do but how
to md the time to do all that can be
done. For them, there Is tennis
golf, swimming, boating and dancing
At the lodge, fishing with Dad, OF
motoring with Mother. But there are
lots OF other things as well, typical
young folk stuff.
Yodeling Guides in Mountains.
Suppose, for instance, the youths
want to climb a mountain. There
are always yodeling Swiss guides
within mailing distance and as for
mountains-well, all one has to do is
point . finger in the air, squirt along
1t, and the chances are ten to one
that the finger tip will be aimed
square at some peak that nobody
has ever climbed. This mountain
climbing is a sort OF BREATH taking
business but the young folks seem to
like it and II they want 1t, Jaspers
the place to get 1t.
But It's on the trail that the young
folks have the real fun. There are
cowboy guides and broad-backed,
sure-footed mountain ponies. It
doesn't matter If they can't ride.
They'll stay on somehow and if they
don't the guide will hoist them up
again.
As for trails, they 60 wandering all
over the map, in a sort of crazy quilt
fashion, like the streets of Boston,
but they take you places. They Chamber
up the sides of the mountains to the
edge OF snow fields, where the chances
are good of finding big patches of
the bluest forget-me- nots growing,
They'll amble through the sh0diest,
coolest sort Of woods and curl along
the shores Of lakes that vary in
color from deepest jade to amethyst.
They roam through alpland meadows,
where marmots whistle CHEEKY well

Campfire Climax.
And at the end OF the day there

to lift up hand to pluck the Big Dip

those cowboy guides can spin are
something to marvel at.
II it's hiking instead OF riding the

is available too. Along many trails
