He and his manager, Mike Col lins, went out home to Rochester, Minn., last Monday night.

J -, - i Many the left as superior to anything Jess WHtard ever showed in this line. Pul fon has a knack of shooting in the left In a dozen different ways. His right hand seemed practically useless to him. A left hander by nature, Fulton boxes In the orthodox position of a right hander. He stands with the right foot back and the left hand extended. In his training bouts here preparatory to the Reich encounter, he used a pro nounced crouch, but In the actual setto he stood more or less erect, thereby gaining whatever advantage his supe rior height afforded him. With the power, speed and accuracy of his left, he was able to pepper Reich almost at will, aided by his immense reach. Una 83 Inch Ilearh. Fulton spreads 83 Inches from fin ger tip to finger tip, or half an inch more than less 'Wlllard. He Is only one inch shorter than Jess, or six and a half feet tall. This gave him a decided advantage over Reich, who partly made up the difference by weighing practi cally the same. Reich tipped the beam at ill 1-2 and Fulton at 117. Fulton seemed to leave himself wide open nearly all the time. He was so intent upon getting that left home that bis defence appeared mighty weak. Yet it may be that he is one of those peculiar individuals sometimes called an awkwardly clever man, with a good defence where he seems to have none. Certainly Reich was not able to hit him solidly, with the lone exception of the first round, when he had the westerner dazed by a powerful right, a random swing that happened to land on the jaw Referee Stopped Hour. Known as a faint hearted specimen. Retch did little but cover up and run away alter ruiton round the range and began his fusillade of lefts over, under and inside the guard. The Minnesota giant had a knack of firing left hand broadsides in such a way that Reich couldn't tell where they were directed. Sometimes they caught him in the hodv. but more often the blows were aimed at the head. Steady punishment by the left, coupled with the fact that Reich refused to do any real offensive fight ing after he had taken a few, caused referee Bill Brown to stop the farce In the ninth round. It is almost sure that Fulton would have scored a clean knockout if he hadn't injured his left hand in the sixth round. He landed hard on Helen's fnro. head and sprained the joints of the first J Ey-Cf-USiYET photo. XS r A.

Manager Mike Collins explained after the bout that Fulton really has a fine right hand punch but was afraid to use it for fear of breaking his hand on Reich, who covers up in a queer way that leaves no opening except the top or his head.

They'll do that -part themselves. But they sure want a franchise and their wants are to be satisfied. A wire was sent John McCloskey at Pueblo, Friday, notify ing htm of the request of the Amarillo fans and asking him to visit the Panhandle city as quickly as possible. rTJNCAN is the name of the new pitching sensation of the Sev enth infantry team, whom the sol diers will spring on the Puritys in the Sunday morning game with the Puritys. He comes here with a fine reputation as a pitcher and the Sev enth secured his transfer only at con siderable expense. w A NOTHER infield change in the Seventh is also announced. Sheridan, who has played here in other games, will be found at short for the soldiers. This lets Debarr go to centerfield while KIcr will be shifted back to left field, his old position. It was recently announced that Steel would play second for the army nine. Y5ALZ vs. Everybodys promises to w be the big treat of the after noon doubleheader at Rio Grande park.

Jim Wil son is likely to go with McCloskey and catcher Chacon is also likely to get a chance with the professionals. Pete Leyva is a candidate for an out field or pitching job with the pros. All should make good. -Se HTHIRD shoot in the Hercules cup series takes place on the Pass City Gun club's traps on Sunday morning, the shoot starting at 9:30 oclock. LJAVE you sent in your entry for the Border States tennis cham pionships at Tucson? If you intend to compete, your entry should go for ward not later than tonight. JITTY KNIGHT, the big favorite with EI Paso fans last year, is ready to leave his Wisconsin home to join McCloskey and will be field captain of either the Pueblo or Amarillo teams this year. A MARIIXO fans have also been advised that the quickest way to get action on a league franchise is to form a stock company and raise the funds necessary for their club. It is likekly that a meeting will be held in Amarillo on Monday night. QVER 100 baseball fans of Amarillo sent their petition to the acting head of the Rio Grande league and each man pledged his financial support to a club in the Panhandle city. If the Amarillo club isn't a success, it isn't going to be the fault of the fans there. J7VERYTHING is now bright for the new Rio Grande league. There is some doubt as to which team McCloskey will handle. Pueblo people are desirous of taking hold of the club there and installing a local man as manager. In that event, "Honest John" will take hold of Amarillo. Jimmy Dunn has his Colorado Springs team all signed and George Reed has already lined up six of his players for Trinidad. All players have been instructed to re port on May 12. T.am mnnerx sharnened. 404 N. Ore son St Allen Arms & Cycle Co. Adv. Adv. Stanford and Possibly Call-1 fornia Will Compete at Harvard Field Meet. New York, May 6. With the refusal or the Swedish athletic authorities to send a track and field team to this country during the coming summer, the last chance for International sport championship. 1916, has faded. As a result, followers of various lines of amateur sport are turning to Intersec tional contests as the next best sub stitute, and there appears to he ex- ' cellent prospects in this direction. T" For this reason the performances of individual and grouped athletes are being watched with far more than usual interest. This Is particularly true of Pacific coast contestants, for It is from that section the largest Invad ing forces are expected in the east this season. i California will send Its star tennis .X players on another tour of the middle west and east; it will also be represent ed In the inter-circuit polo tournament and the leading colleges of the far coast will enter track teams, tennis teams and crews In the principal east ern competitions this spring and sum mer. Stanford Team at Harvard. The first test will come when Stan ford and possibly California compete in the Intercollegiate champiponship Karnes at Harvard on May 26 and ZT. California, which holds membership In the I. C. A. A. A. A., did not compete in 1915, and must send athletes to the games this year in order to retain her standing under the two-year rule. In the recent dual meet between these two varsity track teams at Stan ford, the latter combination captured 11 out of 14 firsts . Xat Record Breaklne Sleet. The performances were not as a rule, however, sufficiently startling to war rant the belief that either team could win first place in the coming Intercol legiates, when the array of talent at Cornell, Pennsylvania, Harvard. Prince-u ton. Penn. State, and other eastern Col- " leges, is considered. Comparing the performances at this dual meet with those at the Intercol legiates, held at the University of Pennsylvania field last Jnne, It Is seen that two are better and three are equal. Of the other eight on the I. C. A. A. A. A. program, the western records do not approach the time or distance made by the winners at Franklin Field. Can't Carry nig Team. Tn Murray, Horton, SIsson and Coughey, Stanford has a quartet of ath letes who appear capable of holding their own against the best of the In tercollegiate contestants this spring. The meet will. In all probability, be won, however, by the team which, places the greatest number of men In second, third and fourth places. Owing to the expense of bringing a large squad from the Pacific coast to Cambridge, the chances of Stanford or California winning are reduced to a minimum. s . I Mexican collections, see Lee Newman.

Gentlemen: Sometime ago I received from you a tennis racquet with the trade mark 'KracKajaoK' on one side of it and the ' 'Horrell ' model on the other. On first observation and feel of the racquet I was much pleased with its balance and general appearance. I have been using this racquet for the last month or so and, inci dentally, trying to find out its weak points, if it had any, and I will frankly state that the more I used it the better I liked it and I could safely recommend it to anyone wishing a well-balanced and most durable tennis racquet.
