Georges Papln and Jules Lanaers.
Georges Pnpln's hopes for a warm reception from American boxing lovers
met with a cruel setback on his first appearance In this country. He met Lew
Tcndler, the second mun to tho champion of the llglitw eights, in a Jersey City
ring, and resigned In the sixth round.
The lhilsh came In curious fashion, as Papln went down from exhaustion
In tho sixth without being struck. Ho had plently of excuse, however, as ho
was iloored four times hi the llfth lound.
The Ficnchninn proved game, but will not measure up to tho American
standard of lighters. Ho Is a good receiver, and slips across little In return.
In picking Tcndler for his opening bout the fans claim he stnrtcd In nt the
wrong end of his bookings, oh Tcndler Is u real challenger for Denny Leonnrd's
crown.
When Papln arrived In this country bo was accompanied by Jules Ln
nners, Helglan middleweight champion and sparring partner for Georges Car
pentler. 'All three boxers are under tho managenient of Francois Deschnmps.
GAMBLING IN EARLY
YEARS OF BASEBALL
Intimately Identified With Game
in the Late Sixties.
Much Harm Was Done to Sport by
Progenitors of Present-Day Follow-
era of Race Track Through
Element of Chance.
Tbo old Cincinnati team was the pio
neer salaried club of baseball, though
there Is a conflict in authorities as to
the exact year In which tho team went
under salary, Edwin A. Goewey writes
ln Leslie's. In tho Spalding olliclnl
baseball guide the year is given as
1SGS, whllo Albeit G. Spalding, In hls
book of memoirs, "Haseball," gives
the year as 1801), and cites enough de
tail to make It evident that the latter
date Is correct. Any wny, It wns In
ISti'J Hint the Ited Stockings made their
phenomenal record. Tho olllclal rec
ords give SI games won, none lost, nnd
one tied with tho Haymakers of Troy,
N. Y. Thero Is no doubt about the tie
gamo and that no contests were lout,
but both Mr. Spalding and Harry
Wright, tho heads of the team, give
.1(1 as the total of games won.
From ancient baseball lore, particu
larly tho reminiscences of Mr. Spnld
Ing, who phi cd a leading rolo ifi put
ting the game on its feet, later saving
It from tho gambling mid commercial
element, and did much to populnrlzo
Ameiican sports generally, It Is gleaned
that gambling was Intiinntely Identi
fied with the gamo In tho late sixties,
much harm being dono to tho sport by
tho progenitors of tho present-day fol
lowers of tho racetracks and other
pi ces nffordlng opportunity for llnan
clnl gain through the element of
chance.
