Billy Miske
Heard From
- i
The Boxing Blade prints a story by
Billy Miske which reads as follows: ,
"I am so hapy that I am just bubbl
ing over with joy. Every now -and
then I have to pinch myself to see if I
am awake. My life dream a chance
to battle for the heavyweight cham
pionship, of the world is about to be
realized. I have been matched with
Jack Dempsey, the title holder, whom
I already have fought two times. I am
confident of the outcome of the battle
and feel sure that on the evening of
September 6, Labor Day, that I will
be the new king of the heavyweights.
"Don't think for a minute that I
am cocky and over-confident, or any
thing like that. I knew that I am
going to battle one of the greatest
righting men of history if not the
greatest but nevertheless I have test
ed him i in battle and I know that I
stand a' first class chance ofbeating
him. .
. "I have fought Dempsey twice both
times before he won the championship.
The first meeting with him was in St.
Paul, my home city. I went 10 rounds
with him1 on May 3," 1918, at the audi
torium. Jack and I put up a slashing
battle, and, at the finish, the fansand
newspaper critics at the ringside were
" divided as to the outcome of the battle.
Some gave me the decision, others
favored Dempsey, while quite . a num
ber, thought a draw decision fair to
both of us.
"It was the biggest battle that either
one of us had engaged in. We both
fought like tigers all of the way for a
victory for either one of us meant that
the winner would 'be the most formid
able opponent for Jess Willard, who
at that time was thevchampion.
"Later on we were re-matched for a
six-round contest in Philadelphia. This
Imatch was staged on November 28,
' 1918. Once moreNwe battled the sched
uled distance and once again, fandom
was divided on the outcome. Dempsey,
who had gained much favorable public
ity about that time by reason of a series
of quick knockouts, had been picked to
beat me, for the so-called wise fans
were giving odds of ,10 to 7 on Jack.
However, I surprised my alleged wisen
heimers and there was a controversy
in the sport pages of the Philadelphia
papers for several dajs after the con-
test as to wli-j won.
: "Now in these two battles, .which
totaled 16 roan ;s, I more than held my
own. As a matter of fact, Jack was
. more marked up when he left the ring
than I was on both occasions. I plan
ned my battle before entering the ring
, in both contests and I will do the same
1 for our coming match, v
; "I was at the ringside when Dempsey
i lifted the title from Jess Willard. Jack
; put up a wonderful battle and I was
.one of the first to congratulate him.
; That very day July 4, 1919 Dempsey
thanked me for nry soortsmanship and
; declared that I -was" the toughest man
he ever fought. He promised that I
would be given the first chance at the
title and he has lived up to his word.
"I am in better condition today than
I have ever been before in my lifex. It
is true that I was out of the game for
a time with illness, but I recovered
cevpral . months ' aco. " and have been
training steadily since early last spring;
"1 made quicK work: ot , jacic xvioran
of. St. Louis, whom I koficked out in
two rounds in Minneapolis in June. I
tried myself out in this match and
found that I was boxing better and hit
ting harder thin ever. I had "two more
bouts scheduled for this month, but
under the terns of my contract with
Promoter Floyd Fitzsimmons of Ben
ton Harbor, ; Mich., who will stage the
match, I was forced to cancel these
bouts. " ' ,
"I suppose Dempsey will be made a
favorite in be'tting in our coming bout,
but only natural because he is cham
pion. But I have worked harder the
past year than Dempsey has done since
he won the title.
"I have been training for several
months, as mentioned above. I am
stronger, taller and heavier than I was
a year ago. . While it may sound un
believable, I have grown more than a
quarter of an inch the past 12 months.
When I fought Dempsey in St, Paul
and Philadelphia, I weighed 179 pounds.
When I resumed training last spring I
weighed 210 ponnds,' I took off some
weight for the Moran contest, but I
will enter the ring weighing around
196 pounds when I swap punches with
the champion on Labor Day."
EM. BOWEN BACK TO GIANTS
The New York Giants have recalled
Benny Kauff, Pol. Perritt, Bunny
.Hearn, "Daisy" Ryan, and our own
Emmons Bowen, the former New Ha
ven High star.
The way Bowen has been performing
at Rochester gives him a first hold as a
regular with the McGraw clan.
WILLIAMS DEFEATS
JOHNNY ERTLE
Kid Wiliams of Baltimore decisively
defeated Johnny Ertle of St. Paul in a
12 round boxing match at Oriole Park,
Baltimore, last Saturday, before the
largest crowd that ever saw arr open
air boxing match in that city. A half
dozen times Ertle was on the verge of a
knockout staggering around the ring
but Williams was unable to finish him.
Ertle managed to last 12 rounds but
Williams was given the decision.
Benny Leonard is coming out of the
hole, and Tex Rickard has him signed
up to meet either Welling, Dundee,
Tendler, White, or any other good
light ( ?) weight, about the middle of
September, the bout to be in the Met
ropolis.' v ...
Jack Dempsey may go to England to
fight Carpentier, after all. Charles B.
Cochran, the English promoter, has
offered a purse of 50,000 pounds to
Dempsey, and he and Kearns, his man
ager, are on the verge of accepting.

Tine
Jibes and
Chapman Was
Model Player
New Yrk baseball fans paid final
tribute to Ray Chapman, shortstop of
the Cleveland American team, whose
death resulted early Tuesday from the
blow he received on the head from a
pitched ball in the game between New
York and Cleveland, Monday. Chap
man's body was placed aboard the Lake
Shore Limited, which left the Grand
Central station at 630 o'clock for Cleve
land. ,
Mays Grief Stricken.
While . the death of Chapman has
caused sorrow among baseball mag
nates, players and fans, none seemed
as deeply grieved over the accident as ,'
Carl Mays, the New York .pitcher, who
delivered the ball in the game that re
sulted in Chapman's death-. After the
Carl Mays.
game Mays went to his room and de
nied himself to alleven his intimate
friends and teammates on the New
York club. He paced the floor of his
room during the night and when word
came to him that Chapman had died,
the pitcher broke down completely and
said he desired to give himself up to
the district attorney as soon as possible.
" On his visit to the district attorney's
office, , Mays was accompanied by
Charles S. McManus, business manager
of the Yankees, Manager Tris Speaker
and Secretary Walter E. McNichols of
the Cleveland club. Mays made his
statement to Assistant District Attor
ney John ' F. Joyce. The player, eyes
filled with tears and barely able to tell
his story, said: 4
Straight,, Fast Ball.v
"It was a straights fast ball and not
a curved one. When Chapman came
to bat I got the signal for a straight,
fast ball, which' I delivered. It was a
little too close and I saw Chapman
duck his head in aneffort to get out of
the, path of the balL He was too late,
however, and a second later he fell to
the ground. It was the most regrettable
incident of my career and "I would give
anything if I could undo what has hap
pened." v
After hearing May's story Mr. Jyoce
said he thought Chapman's death was
purely accidental.
Speaker Exonerates Mays.
Manager Tris Speaker of the Cleve
land club, talking with Col. T. L. Hus
ton, one of the owners of the Yankees,
said the accident was unavoidable.
Manager Tris Speaker
"I do not hold Mays responsible in
any way," he added. I have, been active
in discouraging my players from hold
ing Mays responsible, and in respect to
Chapman's . memory as well as for the
good of baseball, I hope all talk of this
kind will stop. I can realize that Mays
feels this thing as deeply as any man.
could, and I do not want to add any
thing to his burden. I do not know
what prompted the action of the Boston
and Detroit players. For my part I
think it is deplorable."
MONSTROUS FLQRAL
OFFERING FROM FANS
All Cleveland baseball fans are
stunned and mourning over the death
of Ray Chapman of the Cleveland team,
the greatest shortstop that ever wore a
Cleveland uniform and one ofthe most
popular players in the country. y
Mayor W. S. Fitzgerald has issued a
proclamation calling upon Cleveland
sport lovers to raise a Ray Chapman
memorial fund to create a suitable
memorial to be placed at League park.
The mayor also suggests that Septem
ber 3, the day the team returns home,
be made a Ray Chapman memorial day.
Twenty thousand, six hundred and
twenty-three persons donated 10 cents
each toward the "flower from a fan"
fund. A floral blanket with 2,063 flow
ers was purchased and all money left
over was turned over to Mayor Fitz
gerald's "Ray Chapman Memorial
Fund" committee to te used as that
committee sees fit. The committee plans
to erect a bronze tablet at League Park.
The burial services were held this
morning in Cleveland.

BillBrennan to
.Meet Champ,
Jack Dempsey and Bill Brennan have
agreed to box. T.his arrangement,
which was signed by both fighters at
the Hotel Belmont, New York, recently,
will not interfere with the Dempsey-Misk'e-b'out
scheduled to be held at
Benton Harbor, Mich., on Labor Day.
"We have simply signed to fight
Brennan an indefinite number of rounds
at some place not yet agreed upon,
explained Jack Kearns, manager of
Jack Dempsey, after the conference.
"We have become convinced that the
public wants to see Dempsey box Bren
nan and we decided to get together
and sign articles for a bout. We also
decided to leave the date and number
of rounds blank, so that the promoters
could bid for the match. Thirty days
have been agreed upon as the time in
which all bids must be in. By that
time we expect to be able to decide
when and where the bout will be held
Dempsey will go through with his
agreement to box Miske. The world's
heavyweight champion-' left New York
this week for Benton Harbor, where
he will finish training for his first
opponent isnce he won the heavyweight
championship from Jess Willard at
Toledo on July 4 a year ago. After that
bout he will meet Brennan, and the
chances are that he will box Brennan
in New York citv.
The first definite offer received for
the match was from Jim Dougherty of
Philadelphia, who offered a purse of
yiM,vw J 1 nit uuui. x 111a uuti wets
fbr an eight-round no-decision bout to
be held in Philadelphia. It was laid on
the table, so to speak.
The only definite agreement reached
between the parties, aside from the fact
that they will box, was that ' the bout
will be staged before January 1, 1921.
It was also agreed that ' the " confest
would be held subject to the laws of the
city or state in which the bout takes
place. "
''We are anxious to -fight Brennan,'
said Kearns, "because we believe the
public wants the match. . Brennan' gave
Dempsey quite a battle in Milwaukee
before Dempsey won the title from
Willard, and there seems to be a real
demand for a return meeting. Demp
sey is open to meet any one the public
wants him to meet.
O'DOWD AFTER" A RETURN
Mike O'Dowd, the former middle
weight champ, is hot on the trail of
Johnny Wilson, the Bostonese, who
got a lucky decision over the brilliant
Mike O'Dowd :
"westerner. Mique is training hard for
the coming winter season, with the ex
pectation of cleaning out the middle
weight ranks, thereby forcing the Ital
ian into an argument for the title. Very
few fight fans put Wilson in O'Dowd's
class. - '
COAST OUTFIELDER
DRAWS SUSPENSION
San Francisco, Aug. 20. William G.
Rumler, Salt Lake outfielder, was in
definitely suspended this week by Presi
dent William H. McCarthy of the
Pacific Coast Baseball league.
- McCarthy's action was taken follow
ing receipt of an affidavit from Rumler
that he and Babe Borton, suspended
Vernon first baseman, bet $250 on the
outcome of the pennant race against
members of the Vernon and Borton on
Salt Lake City. It was supported lay
another affidavit from C. A. Byler, Salt
Lake City catcher, that he had knowl
edge of such a wager."
Los Angeles, Aug. 20. Declaration
that charges of W. Baker (Babe) Bor
ton against members of the Vernon
club of the Pacific Coast leagure are "a
mass of lies" was the outstanding point
of a statement by Manager William
Essick of the Vernon club, published
here. Essick declared the team's stand
ing disproved Borton's allegations that
"assistance" in distancing the Salt Lake
club in the pennant race was purchased.
roy Mccormick here
on levinsky's trail
Among the arrivals on La Lorrine
on Monday was Roy McCormick, the
British light- heavyweight champion.
This is McCormick's second visit to this
country in an effort to obtain some
high-class bouts.
McCormick is under the management
of Billy Gibson, the well-known handler
of the . world's lightweight title holder,
Benny Leonard.
Gibson is especially anxious to match
McCormickwith Battling Levinsky, the
American light heavyweight champion.
Among the men whom McCormick has
defeated is Tom Gibbons, brother of the
famous Mike.
Shortstop Owen Bush of the Detroit
team announced that he was prepared
to volunteer his services to the Cleve
land club for the rest of the season
if sanction of the league officials could
be obtained. Sentiment among his fel
low players indicated that no opposition
to such, an arrangement was probable .

YANKEES DENY REPORT
ABOUT BENDER PURCHASE
The report sent out from New Ha
ven that the Yankees are seeking the
services of Chief Bender, the veteran
pitcher, for the remainder of the sea
son and were prepared to pay a big
sum foFTiis release, besides giving Ben
der a big salary, was emphatically de
ned by Col. T. L. Huston, half owner
of the club, and also by Manager Miller
Huggins.
"I can't imagine how such a story
could start," declared Huggins. "I am
not after Bender and at no time this
season have I considered the idea of
adding him. to our pitching staff. Two
years ago we had a de.il '11 for Bender
when he belonged to the Phillies, but
there has been 'no attempt made this
year,"

week. Where's Coakley?
The Williams A. C. is the first of

The little blue team is striving to
hold the local championship and are

Mai Barry of Hartford is hitting the
old pill hard and looms up as a con
tender for the batting honors in the
Eastern.
Mike Menosky, the Boston outfield
er, who started a movement to have
Mays barred from baseball, was a
former Hartford player, in the old Con
necticut league.
Why all this outburst against Carl
Mays ? Tris Speaker of Cleveland,
Manager Ed. Barrow of Boston, and
other sensible men ' in the game, have
exonerated Mays, and boost him as a
clean cut player who would not pur
posely .hurt anybody.
.
When Chick Fewster of the Yankees
was beaned by Jeff Pfeffer of Brook
lyn, the regular season had not open
ed, therefore the excitable fan was not
moved, as in the case of Chapman, al
though it looked as if Fewster's career
was over for the season, at least.
' '
Walter Johnson, who has a larger
following than any pitcher in the game,
was almost 4one for as a pitcher sev
eral years ago when he had his belt full
of "hit by pitcher" niches, and nobody
would accuse the big Swede of doing
the bean act purposely.
Then "Smoky Joe" Wood, Russell
Ford, "Old Jack" Stivetts, Amos Russie
and numerous other speed ball pitchers
went along, season after season, copping
the base-crowder, and no howls, went
up.
Mays should have the sympathy of
any decent fan at this tirne.

THE BRIDGEPORT BOUTS.
A lot of interest is being shown by
local fight fans in the big bouts Mon
day evening at Bridgeport where Louis
Bogash, state welterweight cahmp, will
make a bid for national fame when he
tackles Jack Britton, world's champion
welterweight, over a 12 round route at
the Park City open air arena. The
bout will be staged under the uspices
of the Bridgeport Athletic and Amuse
ment company and has been approved
by the Bridgeport boxing commission.
Bogash has been coming along in
fine style the past two years, defeating "
all comers with remarkable ease, and
that he stands a good chance of giving
Britton a rough evening is predicted
by followers of the Park City battler.
The appearance of Britton marks the
first time he has performed in the Nut
meg States since regaining the title.
Britton always gives his best to the fans
and there is no question but what he
will go after the Bridgeporter at top
speed from the opening gong.
A good sized delegation of New Ha
ven fans will make the trip mostly by
auto, Monday evening. Several very
promising preliminary bouts have been
arranged to make up the remainder of
the card.
