By Tom Thorpe.
IGHT managers have been re

fighters. They have at times
come in for a great amount of ad
verse criticism While few writers
find time or inclination to give the
manager a boost, he s nevertheless
8 most importam aseet of the modern
day fighter. Without the advice ar a
guidance of a clever manager Ine
fighter would be a ship without a
pilot. H might travei all over the
fight world without finding 2 prof

True it Js that the manager Coi
lets 25 to 35 per cent of his fignhiers
earnings, but when vou take Into
consideration the long vears of haro

manager in learning the iri ks of the

Levinsky an Example.
The boy o hax never shown any

manager more than any other. Very
cfien such a fighter, aided by a clev-

ad wno is handicapped by the lack|
of an up-to-date adviser. There are|
several fAghters who really gained |
a'l their ‘prominence through the !
sagaclous way in which they were
kandled. ;
An example is Batiling Levinskv.
It it were not for Dan Moran the
same Battling Levinsky would not
be spoken of even casually. Moran
= entitled to more credit than his
fighter, despite the fact that Battling
fights twice a week. Dan is doing
the same for lLevinsky as he did for

Jtallan who started boxing around
the small clubs of Chicagoe, ix an
cther such figure, He wax not over
burdered with knowiedge of the
game, yet he fought the bßest boys
of the lightweight class. His prom

Nelson Piloted to Fame.
“Billy” Nolan is another manager
whose abllity to pilot a fighter along
the proper road to success will long
be remembered by fight fans. Bat

measure to clever handling by Nolan.

in Ring.
NEW YORK, May 30 —Leach
Cross, the pugilistic New York den
tist, has performed a very creditable
“comeback.,” {n a financial way, ever
since he was knocked down for the
full count by Wall Street three years

by holding up fight promoters for the
near-limit of their bank rolls, man
aged to gather about 3830000 unto
himeself by the vear A, D, 1810 And
then some “friend” got an audience
with Leacn and told him how easy jt
would be if he took that $30,600 down
to Wall Strect
“And, like a boob, 1 went,” says
Leach. "1 stuck around Wall Street
for a few monthe while those fellows
monkeved with my money and when
1 decided it was time that 1 got back
my $20,000 and the profits, 1 was told
that there wasn't any profits and that
\the $3O 060 had evaporated.
. “(ee, that was a wallop—the hard

the courage and ambition out of me
for a time, and 1 didn’t care what
came qr went.” i

‘He's “come bhack' with a vengeance
and shown himself to he a betler
fighter and a bigger drawing card
than he was six or seven years ago.
In the last two vears he has grabbed
off matches with the top-notchers,

battles he has collected a big purse,

$28,000 ue the figure for hi= annual
earnings during the year previous Of
course, a few thousand of this was
made through his «ide issue business

came from plugging the other fel

that it's laid aside—~those Wall Street

ENTHUSHSTIG
OVER CHANGES
Leader of Tigers Says His Infield
Compares Favorably With
That of Athletics.
| By Frank G. Menke.
’ RED-HEADED unerson nam:d
A Hughie Jennings. wio hails
i trom Detroit and who is well
‘known in vaudeville circles, is abroad
in this land just now with a new
;mnnoiogue. entitled, “Detroit's Gonna
%l'np Sure.”
{ In his home town this Jennings fe!-
!low made a great hit with his chatter,
| but in a number of other cities when
f;r.e has appeared, especialiy in Phila
‘deiphia, U. 8 A, no laughs have
greeted his utterances, despite the
’,lact that Mister Jennings is the fun
| niest baseball person outside of jail.
' “We are the people this year—wee
lah,” remarked Jennings. Frem ihe
iappearan(-e of things now, it seems
| that all persons desiring to gaze upon
)th» world series gamesa this fall will
have to spend half of the time in
Detroit. But ‘#ere’'s no better pilace
to spend haif of your time—nor all
your time—than Detroit. Beautifai
citv—very beautiful.
“The follsys over in Philadelphis
think the Ashletics have the greatest
infleld in tke country. And the Pira‘es
think theirs is just about as good.
Well, wait until my infield gets ‘o
working together a litile longer—and
then the experis will not be so hasiy
in slipping the medals to the Athilet
fcs and Pirates,” said Jennings.
Burns a Wonder.
“Burns. my new first baseman. is
a wonder. He can hit, run, and can
get anvthing that comes within a
mile of him. And in addition he is
brainy. Kavanaugh, at second. is one
of the most brilliant all-around play
ers that has broken into the game in
many years.
“I've got a couple of pretty good
catchers this vear, and Coveleskie
rounds out a steady, reliable pitching
staff.
“Of course, I am a bit weak in the
outfield. The only fellows I have out
there are Bobby Veach, Sam Craw
ford and a feilow named Cobbh. Samn
is gettinz prettv old now, and be
can’'t average more than four or five
hits a day, but he served us well in
vears gone bv, and we are keeping
Sam just to demonstrate to the peo
ple that there is some sentiment in
baseball.
“Cobb looks like a ‘comer’ this year.
Earlier in the season I thought of
asking for waivers on him because
he was hatting only a trifle over .309.
but he is deing a little better now and
1 guess I'll keep him.
*“All in all, I think my team strong
er in every way than that which
grabbed the bunting in 1907, 1908 and
1909.”
Herzog Makes a Hit.
Down in Cincinnati, which is on
the Ohio River, the villagers are
thinking of presenting Charles Lin
coln Herzog with a brewery—tae
highest honor that Cincinnat! can be
stow on a person.
Charles went down there, against
the advice of friends and the plead
ing of his relatives, and by infusing
his mediocre collection of athletes
with some of his own fire and en
thusiasm, has succeeded In getting
them to put up the best article of
taseball that has been seen in tnat
vicinity for a considerable period.
Of course, the Cincinnati fans don't
expect Charles to win the pennant {or
them. If he did, theg whole team
would die of shock. Ard a lot of
persons in Cincinnati are..t prepared
to die just yet. The suppiv of ‘as
bestos down there is too llmited. Al
they hoped for was a team that conid
put up an interesting and scrappy
exhibition of baseball. And that's just
what the Reds are doing.
Johnson Discovered.
Walter Johnson has been discov
ered. Some New York player has
just learned that “all Jonnson has is
a fast ball and a prayver.” That's all
—just a fast ball and a prayer. la
asmuch as one can't swat a prayer
with a hickory club, and few batters
are able to hit Johnson's fast ball
with the same implement. it seems
to us that the “speed king” shouldn’t
worry over being “discovered.”
Some persons think that Johnson
may some dav lose his speed because
{of the terrific strain he puts on s
{arm with every ball pitched. It is 2
' full swing that snaps the length of
‘the arm. But even if Johnson does
loge his speed he will be able to linger
| under the biz tent for many years (0
| come.
! Jonnson has brains—the most val
{uable asset a pitcher can have. If he
loses the hop on his fast ball, and if
| his arm fails him to the point where
‘he no longer is able to use speed, he
| will depend on his head to fool the
| batters,
| Johnson knows so much about
. pitching. o much about the art of
I’fooling a batter that blinding speed
i 8 not necessary. He can perfect a
slow ball apd turn the trick, or he
can resort to a mixture of curves,
which, combined with his a'most un
leanny knowledge of the weakness of
| varions batters, will enable him 1o
keep his name in big league circles
until 1921—and undoubtedly much
longer.
i s . Lo
Lotz in giving Perry another chance
showed true sportsmanship. .
" ® - ¥
Bl"l‘—u--:h»r:e is one drawback to this

White had waen he gave Thomae his

-1( fca peed ‘have no fear
‘ that the world's all-round
athletic. championship which Jim
Thorpe, the famous Indian, won
at the Olympic games at Stockholm in
1912 will go to any other country in
1916, now that Thorpe has become a
prefessional ball player.
At Carlisle Indian School a succes

[count for anything. there is little
doubt that another Indian will win for
America and also set a new record.
The Indian whe ~will fill Thorpe's
shoes is Joe Guyvon, the 20-year-old
redskin, who made such a phenome
nal showing last"fall on the gridiron
that every critic in the country chose
him as the most terrific backfieid
| player of the vear. Guyon, though
[or_fly a freshman, made a marvelous
| record in recent class athletic games
at the Indian school.
' The football star won seven events,
and captured’ places im two others,
!and his records were exceptionally
. fine, considering the many events in
| which he competed. Guyon captured
the 100-yard dagh in 10 4-5 seconds,
and a few minutes afterward took the
220-yard event in 23 4-5 seconds. He
jumped from this race into the 120-

have improved had he been pushed.
He proved equally strong in the
field events. He took the broad jump
with a leap of 20 feet 2 inches, and
ieaped 5 feet 2 inches in the running
high jump. He entered the hammer
event, the first time he had ever han
dled this missile, and threw it 92 feet
in one toss. Coach Warner believes
he could add 50 feet to the distance.
Then Guyon strolled over to the shot
putting circle and won that event by
tossing the 16-pound leaden ball 39
feet 2 inches. He topped off his per
formances, heavy though he is, by en
tering the pole vault and winning that
event with 9 feet 3 inches.
As Guyon has never tried his hand
at any kind of track athletles until
this vear, and has two more years un
der Glen Warner before the Olympics,
there is little reason to doubt that he
will leave the great Jim Thorpe’s rec
ords in the rear, especially as he wiil
acquire the additional skill necessary
to make him a more formidable man
than Thorpe in the field events.
Guycen is 5 feet 10 inches in height,
welghs oniv¥ 185 pounds, though he
feels like 200 to his opponents, and
comes from the Chippewa tribe in
Brainerd, Minn., the tribe that pro
duced Chief Bender, the great Ath
letic pitcher, and the town that
brought out Joe Bush, another fa
mous Athletic twirler. In addition to
his prowess on track and gridiron,
Guyon is also a crack ball pla¥er and
fine basketball man.
War Interferes With
COLON, PANAMA, May 30.—Ca
ral baseball fans have awakened to
the horrors of war. The aforesaid
Lorrors hit them in their tenderest
spot fand they wiil not be siow to
forget. Every day baseball scores in
the thre big leagues and the South
ern Association come in by innings
and are transmitted by wire to the
various stations where Americans are
at work completing the big ditch or
organizing its new government.
For four days recently there was
not a gcore of any sort received. In
kalls wehere matinees are given and
other places where the returns are
posted fans waited in vain for the
service, but no bulletins came. They
irquired and found the cable line ip
perfect condition. Then the illumi
nating flash came.
The wires wgre loaded down with
war news, matter from correspond
ents at the front and exchange of
official advices between Washington
and Vera Cruz and other points. Talk
is heard of possible suits against
cable company for failing to suppily
the contracted service

l!is’\'es that in previous yvears he has

Miss Mary Brown. national women s

years.
l William M. Johnston, the 19-yea--
i old holder of the Longwood and New

honors, but probably will compete in
no other tournaments prior to the
Newpdrt meeting. He is likely, how
;e\'-:-r. to enter the tryouts for a place
on the Davis cup team.
Johnston's doublies partner this vear
will be Clarence J. Griffin, who with
John R. Strachan holds second plaze
in the nationa! doubles ranking
Strachan, the youthful American
