Johnny had that hunch in 1899

D. {. Authority Backs
Ring Commission in
Fuss Over Seats
Sanitary Official Asks
Additional Protection
Against Arena Ice

Additional protection for specta-
tors from the ice at Uline Arena
during boxing shows, the subject
around which recent controver-
sary centered, is needed according to
report made by an inspector of
the District Health Department.
The report sent Manager Lee
Perrin of the arena asks his CO.
operation in providing additional
insulation. It was the placing of
seats on boards over the ice that was
one of the main points Of the wordy
battle that ragged around the De-
cember 8 show.
The District Boxing Commission,
claiming that such seat were a
menace to health of spectators,
ordered their removal and for
awhile on the night of the show
refused to permit the arena to open.
The show later went on but a
legal battle still impends.
The report, asking for additional
insulation, was signed by r. S.
Wilson, acting director of the Bu-
reau of Sanitary Inspection. 1t
reads:
I'm consideration of the matter
of providing additional protection
against the cold, it is believed that
the area Immediately beneath the
ring be insulated in the same man
ner as the other portion of the
arena. Further, it is believed that
additional protection should be sf-
forded by placing building paper be-
tween the flooring and the ice.
Your cooperation in this matter
will be appreciated"
Perring said he would be willing
to comply with the Health Depart
ment's request about the building
paper if it is available. Il believe
it is on the priority list along with
other building materials" he said,
but I think We'll be able to work
out something The area beneath
the rim galreadv is protected but
the installation just wasn't in place
when the inspector made his visit,
he added.
Perrin also revealed that he and
Owner Mike Uline of the arena
have an appointment with the Dis
trict Commissioners tomorrow morn
ing at IL o'clock to present their
side of the picture. They plan to
discuss the general boving picture
in the District and also the par
ticular instance of the December
show.
The boxing commissioners them

Tells a Drunk Story.
Jack Doyle's favorite story con-
Germs Jimmy Austin, at that time
the Yankee third baseman.
Big Ed Walsh was pitching for
the White Sox. Austin was hit
ting around .2O9." Jack said. He
hadn't gotten hit for three days.
Walsh was at his peak. The big fell
low was moving them down with
his fast ball and his splitter. On
that day I happened to be sitting
near bunch of gamblers who
found 1T hard to get down bet
They were panning Austin as he
came to bat. Sitting near these
gamblers there was a drunk about
half asleep. He suddenly lurched
over and said he would like to bet
Sl00 to $500 that Austin would get
a triple. This was too good to be
true, especially after he had shown
his roll Five of the sure-thing
boys took him, $500 to 50 500. and
held the stakes. On the first pitch
Austin hit one against the top of
the fence for three bases.
The funny part is, that was the
last bet they could get out of the
drunk. He crammed his winning
$500 into his pocket and went
back to sleep. His last remark was
Il only make one bet a game and
then l wait for a sure thing that
can't miss
I'D say the odds against that bet
were 1000 to l."

Many who saw the fight had given
Corbett 20 of the first % rounds.
Doyle Has Different Version.
But Jack Doyle had another story
to tell. George Siler refereed this
fight" Jack said once, "and for a
long time 1 tried to get him to tell
me what his decision would have
been if the fight had been only a
20-round contest. For a long time
Siler wouldn't say. Then one night
he told me confdentially. asking me
not to repeat his words. that at
the end of 20 rounds he would have
given the fight to Jeffries.
"I'll tell you why Siler said.
'Jeffries was the champion. JEFF
fries was the aggressor. And JET
fries landed the only damaging
punches 1t was true enough that
Corbett landed many more blows.
But none of these bothered Jeffries
in the slightest Jeffries only landed
a few times solidly, but when he did
I could see that he had hurt Corbett
considerably. In fact, once or twice
he had Corbett in serious trouble
For that reason at the end of 20
rounds I would have left the title
with Jeffries, the defender"
jeff Nearly Murdered Jim.
Before his death. ] talked to Cor
bett about this Jeffries fight on
many occasions.
Corbett felt dead sure that he
had lost the championship by being
overconfident in the 23d round.
Il had nailed Jeffries at least 10
times to one" he said. I don't think
any one could hurt Jeffries when
he was in shape, as he was then.
You remember, Fitz broke both
hands on his jaw in their second
fight. But I was mailing him all
through the fight. I was far in
front when he finally caught me
coming of the ropes"
I asked Corbett if jeff had hurt
him. Twice" Corbett said. Both
body punches. and each time I
thought he had torn me in two.
The Jeffries that fought Jack
johnson wasn't even a ghost of
the old Jeffries. He was fat,
half-bald fellow. far out of shape.
But the Jeffries I met the second
time was the greatest fighter I
ever saw. He was not only tough
and rugged, game and strong, not
only a killing puncher, but he had
also become a high-class boxer,
which few remember. He had to
retire because there was no one

nothing against hoping, and after
all, half the pleasure of fishing is in
contemplating.
Florida fishing continues almost
as usual and oddly. there is an
occasional demand for information.
How it is to be used is something
else, for the railroads are running to
capacity and hotel accommodations
aren't easily available. The fishing
now is mostly for servicemen sta
toned in that area.
A satisfactory way to express con-
ditions in Southern Florida Is that

Shortages Felt In South.
The great fleets of charter boats
have dwindled to a fourth of their
normal size and the services having
taken all the better boats and
younger men. Those left have gas"
troubles just as motorists do here.
Therefore the trips offshore are
snort and at reduced speed. The
sport is continuing. even though
every one must have a Coast Guard

All boats must be in before sun

BALTIMORE. Jan. 2.-Willie
Joyce of Chicago appeared today to
be likely favorite to win the Mary
land version of the world lightweight
title in l5-round bout with Luther
(Slugger White at the Coliseum
Monday night.
The fight will inject q little more
confusion into the much-muddled
ring picture, which has been badly
scrambled by entry into the armed
services of number of champions
and further by lack of agreement
between State boxing commissions
The winner of the Joyce White
bout will be recognized in the Free
State as lightweight titlist, replacing
the retired Sammy Angott.
Both Joyce and the home town
Negro, White, have been fighting
for some time, although in recent
months both have been meeting
wetlerweights because many of the
current crop of lightweights refused
bouts with them
The two met once before. in New
