Little Boxer Who Has Been
Astounding Paris Scientists
Bested by Plaquette.
N. Y. World-Great Fails Tribune Cable
Copyright 1920, by The Press Publishing
Co. (The New York World.) j
Paris. Dec. 30.—Johnny Coulon, who
has been astounding the scientists of
Paris by his apparent defiance of the
laws of nature in preventing the strong
est athletes of France from lifting him.
failed for the first tirae^ when he was
raised from the floor by Emile Plaquette,
former champion weight lifter of France.
Plaquette lifted the little boxer seem
ingly without any difficulty, but Coulon
complained that the strong man used
\ not only his arms but the full strength
I of his legs and body, which was a viola
! tion of the conditions of the contest.
The feat of Coulons has been var
! iously explained by scientists and the
i nien who have failed to lift him. The
' small man's method is to place his left
i band upon the right side of his adver
! sary's neck, and he chooses the exact
! spot with great care. His right hand
! grasps the other's left wrist, ajnd all
who have met him, with the single excep
tion of Plaquette, have been unable to
move him.
Several of these opponents have com
plained that Coulon looked steadily into
their eyes and made them "feel funny,'
so that they believe they have been hyp
notized. Scientists claim that Coition's
strategic position throws his opponents
off their balance and prevents them from
using effectively the strength that is nor
mally theirs, although they are putting
forth their greatest efforts.
In an article in L'Avenir Prof. Nogues
who has assisted at several of the tests,
insists that there is nothing Mysterious
in the little 110 pound fighter' feat amd
that the explanation is purely a matter
of his upsetting the stronger man's
equilibrium.
Two Class A A Leagues
May Leave Minors and
Join in New Agreement
Baltimore, Dec. 30.—-The possibility
that the International league and the
American association may withdraw
from the National association of Profes
sional Baseball Leagues, composed of
the minor leagues of the country, and
enter the (new national agreement as a
separate and distinct body, is indicated
in correspondence between President
Hickey of the American association and
Jack Dunn, president of the Baltimore
club of the International.
Judge Landis. baseball high commis
sioner. is quoted as saying he saw no
reason why the two class A A leagues
should not enter tbqp agreement to be
adopted at Chicago next month, as a
class by themselves along the same lines
as the National and American leagues.
The chief cause of the dissatisfaction
of the two big minors is the ruling of
the national association that if be given
5 per cent of the gross receipts of all
post-season series.

AMERICANS WIN IN TWO GAIES
OF DAVIS CUP TENNIS TOURNEY
Tilden Outplays Brookes, Captain of Antipodean
Team and Johnston Smothers Young British
Star; One More Match Will Cinch Prize.
Auckland New Zealand, Dec. P.O.—
American tennis players Thursday scored
a double triumph over the greatest Aus
way
of the
tralian net stars and hold the position
of favorite^ in the tournament for the
Davis cup, the historic championship tro
phy of the tennis world. William T.
Tilden 11 of Philadelphia battered down
Norman E. Brookes, captain of the An
tipodean team, while William T. John
ston of San Francisco, virtually smoth
ered Gerald L. Patterson, the brilliant
y oiling star who won the English cham
pionship from his teammate, Brookes, in
The Americans need only one match to
win the cup. The scores of the matches
follow:
Tilden defeated Brookes 10-8. 6-4. 1-6
and 0-4; Johnston defeated Patterson
6-3, 6-1 and <»-1.
Chance to Redeem.
Brookes and Patterson have a chn.nce
finals against Tilden and Johnston. r Ihe
to partly redeem their position in the
way Tilden and Johnston ripped their
through the defenses of the Austral
ians. however, gave supporters
Américains reason to believe that Brookes
and Patterson must play superior tennis
to win even a momentary respite. The
final singles matches will be played
Saturday.
Tilden was plainly puzzled I nursday
by the splendid volleying of Brookes.
who maintained h terrific pace through
out the match. Tilden's brilliant, returns
did much toward turning the tide al
though the heat and Brookes' _agc fa
vored the American. Brookes game
was onlv slightly below that shown when
he was in the heydey of his old time mas
tery. Tilden's play justified his posi
tion as world's champion.
Is Bitterly Fought.
The match was played in two and a
quarter hours, including intervals of
seven minutes between the sets. It was
contested bitterly but in the most sport.«
manlike -manner, Brookes dcliberately
driving the ball out of the court on one
occasion in order to make up for an as
sumed error Oin the part of the iine
umpire.
The first set was a gruelling strug
gle which Tilden won only after a re
markable recovery of form in the later
games. The American .showed wonder
ful reserve strength. The third ;et
marked the culmination of Brookes
pin v. After losing the first game he
opened up a series of irresistable drive«
which carried Tilden off his feet and
won the set 6 to 1.
The first set was opened by Brookes
in the same masterful way and he won
the first tiir»p games, making nine con
secutive games he had taken from the
American champion. Here Tilden ral
lied however. Brookes was tirilier fast
and Tifden. continuing with unbeatable
tennis, won the set and the match.
Serves Are Terrific
Tilden's first serves were, terrific and
an analysis of the match shows that
Brookes can attribute his defeat to this
feature of the American's game. Til
den's second lall vas invariably re
turned by Brookes who shot the ball to
thi Phiiodelpaian back hand.
Johnston's severe drives to Patter
son's back hand in the back court
featured his first set with the young
Australian star. Patterson replied to
his drives weakly and his volleying back
handers were driven back with light
ning speed by the <-alifornian. -TJinston
had won three games beforr Patterson
was able to score a victory and finally
won the set 0 to 3.
The second set showed plainly that
Johnston had Patterson's measure, as he.
won the set almost at his own pleasure,
Patterson won the first game but failed
to break through in another contest dur
ing the. set which ended 6 to 1 in John
ston's favor. Patterson's volleys which
crossed the net were so weak that John
ston was able to run in and score with
lightning drives.
Patterson Loses Ground
The third set was a repetition of the
second. Patterson's play growing worse
each game.
Johnston won five straight gamfes be
~
fore" Patterson gained a victory bit the
Getting Away With a Bluff."
! American took the following game with
ridiculous ease. It is fair to say that no
one ever has been so overwhelmed in a
Davis cup challenge round and Patter
son must reorganize his back hand
if he desires to retain a place
in Davis cup tennis circles.
Johnston showed complete mastery
the game at all times and his fore hand
drives t<~. Patterson's back hand were al
most, always winning strokes.

Now 1 hare a pleasing topic
Write on Firemen, som» one «aid
You have made no mention of them
In the poem ads I've read.
Yet I 've often mentioned firemen
Always too in glowing terms
But I can't find words to give them—
Half the praises that they earn.
Alert and nimble, brave and fearies*
Strong of body, heart and mind
And to search the whole world over
Not a better lot you'd find.
See them as they go in action
Thoughts of danger, fear, forgot
For in all their hard fought battles
They have never failed us yet.
