Stinko Speed Ray Miller, the champ
of the famous speed skate meet
last winter, is practicing.
The Alkali Club shot out it's first
boxing meet last Friday night. Doc
Casey, the Clubs athletic director,
was in charge of the meet, bring
ing to Wyandotte the Stars of the
Brewster Club, Highland Park and
Annunciation. The crowd was
treated to some high class and fast
going battles. In the first bout, F.
Polizzo of Annunciation took the
nod from Referee RoSen over B.
Hindy of Highland Park. This was
In the 112 class. The second bout
of the evening was between T.
Diehr of Highland Park and j..
Camarata of Annunciation. CANA
rata proved to be far too good for
the Highland Park boy and the An
nunciation boy won on K.O. Next
bout saw j. Zaremba show a whale
of a lot of CUTS, but Foster Of Brew
ster threw so many gloves at him
that the referee stopped the fight,
Foster winning on a K.O. In the
fourth bout, Donovan Of Annunci-
alton won the referees nod over
Schultz of Detroit. The fifth bout
of the evening was a beaut with
Costello Of Brewster and Ferry OF
Highland Park slamming it out for
three rounds, and Costello getting
the decision. Cunningham was much
too much for Black of Brewster, and
the referee had to stop the fight
when Black hurt his arm, and could
not 90 the route. The last match
of the evening saw the heavieS in
action. Fred Ford Of Brewster bat
tied Verne Mitchell of Highland
Park. Mitchell was awarded the nod
by Rosen, and the crowd booed lus-
tily. Then to complete swell eve
ming, Doc Casey brought out a
couple of specialists in the grunt
and groan racket-in other words,
rasslers. George Connelll who halls
from Toledo, and Sid Hayes from
Toronto, Ontario. The boys threw
one another all over the ring-tore
off each others legs and arms. then
threw them around, and the crowd
loved it. Finally, after the rasslers,
and the referee all got tangled up,
the bell rang, and the bout was
declared a draw. A good time was
had by all.
understand that these bouts are
going to be held about once a
month all through the winter, and
they certainly should draw a bump
er crowd each time.
Here is some hot news for the
baseball players and team managers.
Some of the new rules as laid down
by the Recreation Department. In
the Old Timers League, the real
rule of the pitching end Is as fol-
lows: The ball must be thrown by
the pitcher underhand and with an
arc. This arc must be over the
batters head some place between the
pitcher and the batter. If the ball
does no go over the batter's head on
the way to the plate, it is called a
ball. But If the batter should decide
to swing at ball that Is not high
enough in arc, the ball Is in play.
There will be no steel spikes
allowed in the Old Timers Baseball.
Next year will see four leagues:
Junior Old Timers-age limit
Is years or over.
Senior Old Timers-age hmit-31
years or over.
