J. P. Knox of Morningside A. C. Boak Finishes Second in Run [N ALL FAIRNESS I )C yt Rv I M/ n M'r.cnjAW Repeats Triumph of Last Sunday in Road~Race When a Feller Needs a Friend By BRIGGS Dr. G. H. Martin Best at Trans of Over lev Trail Harry Parkinson, Veteran Marathon Perfornier. Wins Fourth Place By A. C. Cavagnaro The snow-covered streets failed to frighten thirteen athletes who started yesterday in the weekly invitation race of the Morningside Athletic Club, of Harlem, to prepare local runners for the Brooklyn-Sea Gate marathon. It was originally intended to send the pack over the regular ten-mile trail, but this was shortened one mile on account of the icy footing. All the thirteen starters completed the full distance. John r. Ktiot. of the Morningside, repeated his victory of last Sunday, hut on this occasion in a more decisive manner. T?o swept into the van early and once in this position .set his own pace thereafter to the finish. Knox was credited with a time performance of 52 minutes 2.'? F?conds, which was rather fast under tho existing con? ditions. William Boak, Mohawk Athletic Club, finished h strong second after fighting out a duel with Knox dfring the early stages. Arthur Sands, the former Erasmus Hall runner, compet? ing in the colors of the Morr.ir.gside organization, was third. Harry Parkinson, the veteran mara? thon runner, making his first appear? ance in a race in nine months, gave a great exhibition of stamina and ?peed in pulling clown fourth, place. Following his collapse in the Boston A. A. marathon last April. Parkinson had hi.i amateur registration card can? lied b> the local registration rommittee owing to his poor condition. However, Parkinson was given a clean bill of health or?. Saturday by the registration committee when he sub? mitted affidavits from iv/c medical doc-tors ti;.i his heart was in a sound condition. Parkinson competed !n yesterday's race attired in his street clothes and wearing a pair of regulation army Bhoe -. II?1 headed the pack for the first mile, with Boak and Knox follow iiif; abreast two hundred yards behind. A short distance ur'.her on Parkin? son gave way in his rivals, who fought cut a d'.u-l for another mile ?nid a half. Tlie summary: Pos. "?'?':.- an : Club. Time.. T I- Knox. Uorntngslcle A. C .

Work To-day For Title Match This week will sec the staging of the greatest wrestling match that ever took place in the history of the sport. On Friday night Earl Caddock and Joe Stecher will meet in. a finish struggle to decide the championship of the world. For y.?ar* these rivals have fought, but not in the ring. It finally arrived at the point where this duel was necessary to have them meet and decido superiority. Caddock and Stecher are receiving a guarantee of $40,000 for their services. The box office receipts wil? come close lo $80,000 and the motion picture privi leg? at least $30,000, bringing the sum up to $110,000, a figure that was never dreamed of by the followers of this sport of centuries. To-day will see the two rivals start in real hard train;ng. Caddock is now ready to spend the next few days in strenuous work-outs to bring himself up to the highest pitch of physical con? dition. He arrived here in first class shape and only needs a few days to be at his best. Ho is confident that" his long lay-otf from the game will have no ill effects. He feels the rest will be all to his advantage. Stecher is in the best of trim. He has convinced the wrestling fans in this city that he is one of the greatest ??rapplers that ever appeared here. His sensational victories over "Strangler" Lewis and Zbyszko were proof enough that there i? little more to be ex? pected of him, for he conquered the two dangerous rivals when he pinned these giants to the mat. Norman Hofheimer, the promoter, of Norfolk, Va., is the first of the visiting crowd to make hi? ?ppearance. He ia the advance agent for a crowd of one hundred devotees of the sport In his city. The Norfolk contingent will ar? rive by special train Thursday night and return to their Southern home Sun? day evening. From now on there will be quite an influx daily from the West. This match is an inducement enough to brin? a bi'j crowd from the rival states of Nebraska and Iowa, the homes of the grapplers. -.-e> Holy Name Five Loses First Game of Season The fast Holy Name basketball team lost its first game in fifteen, played yesterday afternoon at the Manhattan Casino.

IT?Kh Tile. il<; Trajtby. 114; Hand * o;r. m cAjrpfVBtt?? alltrwacc? olalmveL ' IN RESPONSE to numerous inquiries, I am ready to state that I would not advocate the boycotting of Jack Dempsey nor the prevention of the Denipsey-Carpentier bout. On the other hand, I am very ' willing to concede that the American Legion has the right to take ; any action it majasee fit in this regard. It always has been my contention that Jack Dempsey and all the other professional fighters should have been among the first to voluntcci ' when the United States entered the World War. Fighting was their trade. : and here, certainly, was the chanco of a lifetime to get into a fight worth ' while?a fight where no body was barred, where all holds went, and a . fight where the so-called manly art could have been vindicated gloriously Instead of taking the golden opportunity Dempsey and the othen failed to become interested. Dempsey and his ilk have made the title ! "fighter" a misnomer when applied to the professional gladiators of the Qucensberry ring. That is what sticks in the craws of many of the 4,000,000 men and boys who wore the uniform and played the big game with real men in the greatest fight of all. It rather galls one whe remembers a bunkie left sleeping under a wooden cross in France tr hear Dempsey called the "world's greatest fighter." ? never would dispute the right of the man who entered the grea cfusade to express his feelings in regard to the man or men who "waiter instructions from th? government," as Dempsey put it. The peasant: ! of France and Belgium for years to come will thank God that there wen j many young Americans who volunteered and, rashly refraining fron i waiting instructj<ww from their government, formed part of that wall o | flesh that held bacfi. the Hun. The crosses still bear witness to their h?h rashness, was a rashness akin to the rashness of the Saviour himself. It is my belief that the case of Jack Dempsey calls for more sorrov than for anger. His letter of deferso is a quibble. He does not ye comprehend that the eternal fitness of things was crying to him with th? first call for volunteers. It ?3 useless to discuss the merits of his alibi There are many alibis for the failure to respond to the same call. It i truc that the shipyards never had such an easy time of it in findinj j h?lp as they did during the late war. Then- never were so many youn? i men with a passion for naval architecture, a passion which halted sud ! denly with the signing of the armistice. ; A Matter of Ethics HPHE Dempsey controversy is merely a matter of ethics. In this cor nection one must admit the wisdom of Willus Britt, former manage of Stanley Ketchel, who said, "There ain't no ethics in the prizefigr. business." For sacrifice like that which wai demanded by the World War ther is no reward save that which is given by the soul's satisfaction. For tho; I who by subterfuge evaded the sacrifice there can be no legal punishmer j unless there is an open offense against the statutes. The conscience ? %he judge; the conscience rewards or punishes. I The reason that Dempsey is singled out is that Dempsey is a fight? ? by trade and said to be the world's greatest tighter. But there are othei ; who were equally as blind as Dempsey to the vision of the great crusac | and equally deaf to the cries of civilization upon the cross. The shij i yards were teeming, the "essential industries" were overcrowded, ar I some 30,000 or more millionaires were made by war industries; deservir ! Democrats leased cesspools and swamps in the South for training camp j (Did you ever spend a winter in a Southern training camp?) Thore is no speculation as to what these gen^emen will reply ? their grandchildren when they are asked what they did during the gre. ! war. So why confine the storied speculation to Jack Dempsey? Dempsey has applied to the Army, Navy and Civilian Board of Boxii j Control for a "vindication of his war record." The controlling body i j the American Legion has declined to handle the whitewashing brush I this case. The Boxing Board, if it expects to maintain its influence, w 1 do the same. What can the Boxing Board do by way of vindication? Can it p ' the rainbow medal on the breast of the fighter who took to the shipyard I Can it give to Dempsey the highest prize that a he man can hold?? honorable discharge from the army or navy? Can it give him a crc :n the poppy fields of France? Not now. Even the case of Dempsey calb for fair pipy, and Dempsey shou ! not be singled out of all the inmate of the shipyards, all the profiteeri: ' patriots and all the war millionaires. I, for one, do not advocate the stopping of the Dempsey-Carpenti i fight on any ground yet advanced. I not only admit, but I always %\ ! maintain, by all these wooden crosses, that the "world's greatest fightc j will eternally remain a misnomer. The Big Wrestling Bout I HPHERE has been some discussion as to holding a championship wr tling bout, with only one fall. There is no rule on this score. Pre? i dent has established the custom of making it two falls out of three. | has been advanced by those who favor clinging to precedent that wrestl? ? i?re likely to take their time when only one fall is necessary. There no particularly good logic in this. If the wrestlers are stalling they \ do so deliberately, no matter what the rules are. The championship bout between Caddock and Stecher has all ' earmarks of a genuine championship event. There is enough at st? to make the grapplers do their best. With the quickening of the inter in wrestling the grappling title carries with it some real intrinsic val The holder never will make as much as a boxing champion, but he -\ do fairly well. Wrestling seems to be comlnf back into popularity after being un a cloud for a considerable length of time. There Is every prospect t Madison Square Garden will be packed to the doors when Caddock i I Steeher meet on Friday night. After that there are other good wrestl I bouts in prospect. It is up to those who will profit by professional wi ? tling to ?see that it is kept on the square. I No Polo Challenge This Year i T^HERE will be no international polo matches this year. The chain of the polo committee of the Hurlingham Club has written to I American Polo Association asking that no challenges be sent this y 1 The latter tells of the inroads made Into the ranks of the polo player: England by the World War, and explains that it would be impossibl? ' pat a representative English team into the field until 1921. English polo players played a magnificent part in the World \ The greatest of them were with the first little British army that suff? such cruel casualties in the first year of the conflict. Polo is essent: j a soldier's game, and the greatest of the English polo players were ? ! the British regular army that was cut to pieces in the first battle Flanders. The American Polo Association made the sportsmanlike reply the American polo players had no wish to send a challenge until ? felt certain that the English players would have recovered suflicientl make the international polo match a real sporting event. Magnates Gather Next Month rJpHE baseball magnates will gather at Chicago next month. It is a time for the pre-season love feast, to the accompaniment of cooing of doves and all that sort of thing, for it is rapidly approac the time when the turnstiles of the parks will begin to creak in 1 usual musical fashion and the magnates will begin to realize on tin vestments. It looks very much as though there might be peace in American League, or at least some sort of armistice, though the A :can League revolutionists declare that they will bring nothing to meeting but Irish confetti, and plenty of it. In the mean time many of the magnates will have many thinp worry them. The news that the Giants were to get increases in s? without demanding it has made the other baseball players decided! tercsted. Signed contracts are not coming back with the usual swift and regularity, and many a magnate is worrying. The meeting proi to bring about the annual discussion as to ways and means of stani ! izing the salaries of baseball players, and, as usual, some one will , to ask how it is to be done, and then the annual silence will fall ove : magnates. Also there will be the matter of a chairman for the National ( mission. There are more, candidates for this job now than there ; Presidential candidates, and each and every one of them has the inte | of the great national pastime bo much at heart that it seems ?mpot j to turn down any of them. i Van Slyck, Yale, Ousted As Leading Point Scorer Porter, of Cornell, Takes the Lead in Basketball League With 51 Points Deforest Van Slyck, captain and left forward of the Yale five, has been forced to relinquish his lead as the chief point scorer in the Intercollegiate Basketball League, according to the complete records to date. He was ousted from the top rung, possession of which he held for two weeks, by Porter, left forward of the Cornell quintet. The latter, however, has played in four frames as against three for Van Slyck. The Moot Cornell player and the Yale commander show the way to .rival tossers by a wide margin. Porter has garnered a total of Til points, on eleven floor baskets and twenty-nine successful attempts from tin- foul ?inc. Van Slyck lias made -11 points, on six field goals and twenty nine free throws from the 15-foot mark. Thus Porter and Van Slyck are far in advance of their fields in the mutter of converting opponents' in? fractions into points. Cnpttun Hynson, of Princeton, holds third place with 24 points. He is tied with Porter for tho vanguard in field goals, but has bagged only two out of nine attempts from the '? penalty line. It is noteworthy that Porter and Van Slyck have done all of the foul j .goal shooting for Cornell and Yale | in all the games played thus far by J these teams, with tno exception of one j successful effort by Captain Molinet, ' of the lthacans. In this respect Van ! Slyck stands above his rival, inasmuch as lie has missed only four in thirty- : three tries, while Porter has miscal? culated the distance thirteen times in forty-two attempts. 'the many who have handled the foul tries for Prince- ! ton have caged only twenty-live out of fifty-four chances; Columbians have I fouled eight of fifteen attempts, while; Dartmouth players have missed six of seventeen free throws. Murphy Defeats Field Of Seven at Skating William Murphy, of the 181st Street; Palace, the local skating champion, de- | feated a field of seven starters in a ; 440-yard scratch race held on the ] Dyckman Oval ice rink yesterday.

C Charlie Shaw, Star Columbia Runner, In Training Again Charlie Shaw, captain of the Co? lumbia University track team probably will be seen in competition with the local team this winter, which an? nouncement, will gladden the hearts of all Columbians. Carl Merner, coach of the Blue and White truck and field athletes, has reported that the injury to Shaw's knee is healing rapidly and that the former halfmile intercollegiate champion may bo in condition to run again soon. Shaw sustained an injury to his knee during the football season, which got worse us he continued to play. He finally had to quit the eleven and for a time it was feared that water on the knee had developed. These fears, how? ever, proved groundless, and with rest and treatment the leg- was quickly re? stored to normal condition. Last week Shaw donned track togs ??nd t?,ok u brief limbering-up canter.

Wounded Soldiers Claim Right to Judge Dempsey The wounded doughboys and officers now at the United States Army General Hospital, No. 41, Fox IIills. Staten Island, have become aroused over the CJise of Jack Dempsey. Through Lieu? tenant Robinson, who was wounded abroad, they have compiled a letter which they have forwarded to Dempsey. These wounded men claim the right to pass on Dempsey's case and have invited him to answer a series of fif? teen questions pertaining to his activi? ties during the war and in regard to other matters as patriotism. On re? ceiving a reply from Dempsey they will review the matter carefully, and then issue a statement according to their findings. You Can't Have Everything Yoa were at the motor show.
