Luther McCarty Wins From Jim Flynn In 16 th Round At Vernon A rena WHAT HAPPENED THEN Tales Told At the Ringside By W. A Phelon EL GIROUX, who looks after John Cortes interests in New York, is a sportsman tried awl true, aad a reyal fellow. Incidentally, he has been in many cities, seen much service in his chosen profession, and has a few adven tures. Most of them he will recount with relish and delight and will tell them clear up tc th flush, but there is one story he has never completed, and no one ha. ever bees able to drag it from its lair. That story is one of the long ago, bat, even though it be hoary with age, Mr. Giroux won't let you hear the climax or de nouemeut "It was a great many years ago," says Mr. Giroux, "when I was very young, and very kittenish. I was just embarking on a theatrical career, and had made my start as treasurer of a certain theater, many miles from dear old Broadway. Like all box office men, I had many strange characters to meet, and had to be a diplomat, a joflier, or a tyrant, several times for each role in the same evening, and always something doing as I went along. "One night, when there was every promise of a big house, and I was peering exultantly through my window at the line that coiled away from the box office and far down the street, a large, round, solid head suddenly appeared before my gaze. The head, which had bushy eyebrows, fierce, domineering eyes, a thick mus tache, ani a cigar as outward emblems, seemed to fill all the space in the window. I coeldn't see what manner of man belonged to the face he was too close but jHdged him to be a sawed-off, very short-built fellow, and much my physical in ferior. "Tbe face began asking questions as to prices and locations of tickets, and, in side the theater, the music struck up. The line behind the face grew impatient and began to growL I was deeply vexed at the way in which the face delayed the sales, anl told it so. 'Come on, now.' said L 'Get your ticket, or get out. Lots of people waitiag.' "'Tell with 'em.' said the fSce. 'Tend to me and be nice about it, young feller, or yoa'H 3e sorry.' "What? What's that? I sheuted. 'Get out of that window, or 111 coma laesd and knock you out of it Think I can be held here all night by a dub like yen? Get out now, or ni come and knock you off!' " 'Hh!' grunted the face. 'Come round and do it!' And, with two leaps I was outside the box office. I bore down furiously upon the line, which opened to give me room. The face turned, and the man belonging to it straightened up, showing &at he had been leaning forward on his elbows and hadn't shown me half bis height. Oaward I came, and the face, also its owner, came gladly to meet me. "It -was John L. Sullivan." And at this point Mr. Giroux ends the narration. For nearly 30 years hej cat- ananiraiirea me sueuce 01 xne grave aDout wnac Happened subsequently, and oaly the imagination is left to conjure up a picture of what the climax must have beea. Coach Your Son To Become A Pitcher Jfo Alibis Go With Men on Hassocks or In the Field, But If a High Salaried Heaver Loses a Game He Has an "Off Day." -By DAMON" KUNYON.- N EW YORK, K. T Dec lL If ever He wins his frames, and the labors bf youiiB so aMMlfeste an incur able desire to become a base ball player, and you find him fooling around first base or the outfieM. or tbe second or third, or even Deer ins with infantile eagerness through the meshes of a mask, lead that youthful party out behind the barn and nave a speech with him. Pat on a catching xlove, and exam ine the condition of his shooting arm. He may have & wholly unsuspected hop to Jais fast ball, along with a nice curve and some chancre of pace: Such beimr the case, it becomes your pa rental dutv to admonish him to enter life -as a pitcher of baseballs. Easy Life for Pitchers. Speak to him as follows: "Son. there is a great deal of class to a Cobb, but consider the skinne-l thighs which come from the sliding appertaining to the running of bases. Consider, too. the daily labor the 151 Karnes of baseball, during which the man who wonld be a Tyrus, must Jiound the pill for better than .-40O, or ose caste among his people. '"Consider the enormous amount of energy which must toe expended every two hours ouf of the 24 by the Hal Chases and the Honus Wagners and the Larry Doyles of our time. Each and every day they have the same old strain and worry: each and every dav they must perform their work with marvelous efficiency or be panned to a whisper. No alibis go in their cases. "And then, mv son, pause and think of the life, of the slothful ease of the pitcher, -who works two or three times a week, but who gets practically as much jnoney, and ese as much fame. the Cobbs and the other- mon hohlnil him are forgotten in the gossip of his prowess: he loses, and the men Ore sacrificed for their shortcomings, and he is excused on the ground of aa off day. "Be a pitcher, my son be a ilat thewson. or a Wood, or a Johnson, and yoa will find the path to the vaude ville stage as easy from the mound as it is from the outfield." Having concluded your lecture, all you have to do is to turn your son loose with a baseball in his hand, and let him wander through the bushes un-, til such time as some big league man ager locates him on the advice of friends. A big league scout may stum ble across him accidentally, but now adays the manager usually hears about the phenoms and then sends the ivory hunter to confirm or deny the news. A Short Cnt to Fame. The demand for pitching material is never satisfied la the big leagues. The box is the surest short cut to fame. A manager may have two or three men sitting on his bench who are better In sheer ability than men playing in his regular line and the manager may know that to be a fact hut lark of experience, or other reasons, may keep mem iunB in me oacKgrouna. wnere as the pitcher usually finds big league opportunity crowding him at all stages. It might be argued that while the pitcher does not work as hard as the other players neither does he last as long In the big league, but that argu ment is answered by the fact that sev eral of the foremost figures In the game today are veteran heavers. Christy Mathewson has been pitch ing for 12 years, and is today one of the highest salaried men in the game He is accounted well off in this world's goods. He is good for several years more. Ed Walsh is a comparative vet eran, and still one of the five greatest heavers in the world. There is no rea son whv a man like Walter Johnson ushould not go on as long as Mathew son. or way Marquara snouia not last as long as Eddie Flank, who is an old timer, as ball players go, but who fin ished second among the twirlers of his league last season. Draw Big Samrlc. Two pitchers have commanded the highest prices ever paid for ball play ers John T. Brush nave up $11,000 for Rube Marquard. and Barney Dreyfuss. of Pittsburg, paid a price generally placed at $12,500 cash, and ball players representing nearly as much more, for Martin O'Toole. Mathewson is believed to get all of $10,000 a season, and makes a considerable amount on the side every year, wbllei Walter Johnson is reputed to draw down $7000 a sea son. There is many a pitcher whose tal ent is buried with poor clubs who might be ,a great star with a f irstclass team, but: as a general proposition the crack pitchers show their class re- gardless of their backing, as witness ucker and "Walter Johnson. The latest was an acknowledged marvel when Washington was nowhere in the race. Russell Ford and "Lefty" Hamilton are conceded to be great pitchers, even though their clubs are neighbors at the tail end of the American league. The fame of Grover Alexander, Tom Seaton, "Slim" Salee. Vean Gregg and several others is not submerged by the posi tions of their clubs. During the regular season of 1912 the big leagues handled approximately 474 baseball players of one kind and another, of which number 122 were pitchers who did not appear in 15 or more games. (They pitched in any where from one to 14 games, but did not attain the magic 15. which is the number that gives them place as rec ognized tollers on the mound. Some of the 122 were recruits who came late in the season, and worked just enough to show flashes of future promise. Others were boys who "were tried early In the year and failed to display enough form to warrant thalr retention in the big league. Still others were veterans who were unable to work regularly on account of Illness or Injury. 0. A. A.

Solid gold rings with precious stones at half price at Kline's Curio Shop. Adv. the fight winner. No Chance for Flynn. Flynn took an awful beating, and never had a chance against the Mis souri "hope." Savage smashes to the jaw sent him down three times in the ninth round. At that time it seemed certain that he would go out. but his remarkable vitality, persisting after 12 years of ring battles, remained with him until the middle of the 16th. Then the referee, harkenlng to the vocifer ous cries of "stop it," that had begun In the ninth round, raised McCarty's right glove and proclaimed him the winner. The end came when Flynn had gone down twice under the ponderous smashes of bis youthful opponent. The fiwt time Flynn remained down nine seconds. He arose staggering, and straight half arm blows, the thud of whiph could be heard throughout the crowded arena, sent him sprawling again for the finish. He got up com plaining and denouncing Eyton for proclaiming McCarty the winner. As a reward of his victory. In addi tion to the purse, McCarty will have Al Palzer In the Vernon 'ring for a "heavyweight championship" battle of 20 rounds on New Year's day. In Line for Title. Unknown a few months ago. and but a glimmering "hope" even after he had disposed of Kaufman, he has placed himself, in view of champion Jack Johnson's supposed elimination, in di rect line for the heavyweight title. He left the ring smiling and virtually unmarked, declaring later that while ht never made predictions as to the outcome of fights he did not believe FaLser was as fast as Flynn. Flynn was a pitiable spectacle as he dragged himself with the assistance of his seconds from the ring. His face was so puffed that he could hardly open his mouth and great slits over Ms eyes oozed blood despite the- re peated applications of collodion. McCarty Eludes Rushes. Flynn's chances of winning disap peared almost as soon as the men squared away for the first round. He could not reach MeCarty, while the Miesourian .hit him at will. McCarty eluded his rushes easily, and planted resounding blows wherever he wanted to land them. McCarty's best blows were straight lefts and uppercuts that almost invariably went flush to the fireman's jaw. Flynn, however, sel dom backed up. When he did give ground, it was only for a moment and then he rushed in lor more. Flynn met a man against whom hi3 savage infighting was futile. Time after time he rushed and flailed rights and lefts, but the youngster was too strong for him and the veteran was al most helpless. Flynn showed his old time form only in flashes. McCarty. throughout, fought a cool, heady battle. ELK BOWLERS LOSE TO TUTTLE 'S TEAM Three of the four points in the match were won by the Tuttle team.

To show that he is made of the royal clay. Packey isn't starting out with a blare and blast, telling the world that he can make Ritchie hop through a knothole or wriggle his ear. None of that raw work for P. Sarsfleld McFar land, Esq. Rather, he's there with the diplomatic salve or as the proletariat would call it, plain "Durham." Packey is telling the boys what a fine youth Ritchie is and what a credit he's to the boxing game. That is strict ly proper, for Ritchie is on -the style of McFarland. which is a credit to any battler. After P. Sarsfleld finishes his enconiums he remarks offhand and in a careless manner: ,..,.., "I know Ritchie is satisfied that I have a legitimate claim to a match and I look to him to give" me a chance at the earliest opportunity.

It is hard enough to get base hits off Walter Johnson and Joe Wood, and almost an impossibility to procure home runs off them. This last fact is driven home through inspection of the American league four-bagger records of 1912. such inspection showing that each great boxman had only two cir cuit drives made off his delivery last, season. Harry Lord, of the Chicago White Sox. should feel proud of him self when he learns that he was the only American league player to get homers off these two stars of the fir ing line. Lord made his circuit elout off the Idaho phenom on May 8 and touched Smoky Joe for a hit for the grand tour on June IS. Ping Bodie made the other nomer off Johnson, and Frank Baker the other four bagger off Wood, the dates on which these historic hits were manu factured being May S and October 3. It will be noted that the two four-ply smashes off Johnson came in the same game, a game, by the way. in which Johnson was knocked out of the box. Johnson must have had considerable speed, for prior to the time he was driven to shelter he smashed some bones In Lee Tannehiil's arm by hit ting him with a pitched ball. Other star pitchers did net possess the skill (or luck) that Johnson and Wood showed in preventing the manu facture of home runs. Russell Ford, for example, yielded 10 hits for the full distance, two of which were pro cured by Tris Speaker, voted the American league's most valuable play er. Ed Walsh was located for six hom ers. Speaker getting one such hit off the spit ball expert and winning a game, with it. v Five home runs were made off Jack Coombs, three off Bob Groom, four off Vean Gregg and only one off "Chief" Bender.
