DISCUSS
CARP'S K. 0.
LONDON, May 13. "Georges Car
pentler knocked out Ted Lewis, with
a fair blow," was the verdict yester
day of Referee Joe Palmer, Jack
Dempsey, world's heavy weight
champion; Jimmy Wilde, world's fly
weight champion, and all Londor
sport writers. Joe Palmer, the rcf
eree,rtiade the following statement
"The final blow .was perfectly fail
The men had broken from a clinci
It was Lewis' business to protec.
himself."
Jack Dempsey said: "Carpentler
simply took advantago of an open
ing. He was just too good for
Lewis, that's all." Jimmy Wilde,
world's fly welaht champion, also a
rlngsider. declared: "It was some
punch. It would have knocked over
a lamp post. It didn't look like a
foul to me."
"U1RTV FIGHT" Tommy Burns
Ixmclon sport writers emphasized
the fact that Lewis turned his head
momentarily and Carpentler leaped
to the opening. Tommy Burns, for
mer world's heavy weight champion,
took an opposite view. He said: "It
was 'the dirtiest two and one-half
mlnqtes I ever saw. Both were to
blame, but Carpentler was the
worst, 1 can't see why the French
man wanted to foul by butting .with
his head and holding and hitting
when he had an advantage of twenty-eight
pounds over an" opponent
In every way his inferior.'
ley second base. Groat and Larson
at short, and Drahurd at third.
Scott and Rose will take care of the
catching, while Ed Parish will do
the pitching. DeRolf will act as
relief pitcher.
The Comets team is not composed
of stars, but they promise to give
any team a run for their money.
They will be out there trying to
start the season right, which means
they will be out to win.
BURMAN BEATS RYAN
BEFORE DERBY CROWD
LODISVILLK. Kj'., May 13. Joe
Burman of Chicago outfought Tom
my Ryan. Philadelphia bantam, in
ten rounds of fast milling before a
25.000 crowd of Derby fans here last
night.
The seml-wlndup involved a cou
ple of alleged welters In Harvey
Thorpe and Jack Perry.
They fought the silliest fight ever
looked at. They were not even
close enough to joke. The referee
should have tossed them out, but he
didn't. It was a no-decision fight
and naturally a newspaper decision
is in order. Our decision is "no contest."
Columbia A. C. to Play
at Chicago Heights
The Columbia A. C. will open their
traveling season next Sunday when
they go to Chicago Heights to take
on the fast Heights ball club of the
Chicago league.

Ziemkawskl playing the outer gar
den. Buses will be at the C. A. C. club

MYSTERY DRILL
LOS ANG2LES. Calif., May 13.
Jess Willard Is in town. The best
information available Indicates that
he is in training; but he declined to
see newspaper men to divulge ills
plans or his hopes, or to say any
thing about whether he wanted to
box Jack again.
Willard has been here two weeks
or more, but nobody knew It until
newspaper men, on information
from eastern points, traced him to
a leased home in a quiet residence
section, where the telephone was
listed under another name, and
where Jees himself was admitted to
be living, but could not be seen.
Chick Fewster supplied the thrill
in the Tankee-Tlger game. The
score was 6 to 6 in favor of th
Timers in the first half of the eighth.
The Yankees got the bases full in
their half of the Inning. Then la
regular story book form, up came
Ch'ck and emote out a homer. And
then, of course, the game was over.
