4 S fllK OMAHA SUM") AY NEK: JUNE 27, 1915. C. WHITE, KNOCKOUT ARTIST Chicago Lightweight Shatteri Ring Etiquette by Delivering Sleep Punch Occasionally. IS HOT ON THE TRAIL OF WELSH Br RIBOSIDE. KETV TORK. June M-Charley While (ne Cbarley Anchowlti) Is mpldlr de veloping Into a modern ring oddity a genuine honeet-to-goodnese kiiockerout And Chicago's leading eontAnder for lightweight laurels baa hl ahrewl man ager. Nat Lewis, to Mama for thli state of affairs an unseemly breach of ring etiquette. For b It understood that It Is an unwritten law among tba other Ilrhtwelghta that the should not en danger the reputation of opponents by delivering a knockout at times. Charier Whit, stands in danger of be In ostracised by th. lightweight sot for the uncouth methods ha employs in advancing himself to tha front rank among the US-pounders. At tha Insu re Unn of Ms sponsor and manager, tba said Nste Lewis, Whlta baa undergone a complete metamorphosis In tha last few months and from a clever, two handed tighter x has bean transformed into tha hardest-hitting lightweight In the country today. Whlta, by his many recent knookw outs, baa driven fear into tha hearts of contemporary lightweights, but his un paralleled performance of five straight knockout of classy men In about as many weeks has endaerred Whlta to the fight-lovtrtg populace and has made him tha. leading contender for Treddy Welsh's lightweight crown. rata Five ( glees. Since tha new year White has listed among his knockout victims men who had never ' suffered the sensation of a knof kout before, flam Robldeaux, Hal Btewart. Jimmy Murphy, Charley Thomas and Eddls Murphy were among those to crumple before White deadly punch who had never measured their length on the canvas previous to collid ing with White. It was not until White had been dab bling with the padded gloves for six years, from 1907 to 1913, that Nate Lewis, Ms first and only manager, resolved to make a knockout artist of his clever Charge. And how well he succecied la best attested to by the record book. In his first year as a demon walloper White put to sleep Joe Thomas (twice), Jake Abel, Mickey Sheridan and Kid .Kansas, among others. Then, In 1814, 'Harry Donohue, Kid Kansas (again), Haftley Toakum, Joe Asevedo and Danny O'Brien sucoumbed to White's left hook. Speaking of Yoakum and Asevedo, vhe are considered quite , some shucks out west, that reminds us. Mr. Charley White takes umbrage at our Imputation last week that he has not been so very successful In distance bouts. We casually mentioned that he lost decision to Jack Brttton and Danny Webster and was held to a fifteen draw by Bobby Waugh. . In rebuttal White, or rather Manager Nate Lewis, offers proof of a nlneteen-round, knockout of Stanley Toakum. . and an eighteen-round knock out of Joe Asevedo about three weeks after the Toakum affair. And these bouts took place only a year ago, Being taken aback by such conclusive evidence, we Implored Mr. Lewis to ex plain. "When Charley was only 80, and a flherwelght," began Nat, "be lost that hnlr-line derision to Webster. I didn't mind the verdict, for I was elated to learn that White could go the twenty rounds. "Against Brlttnn, Charley fought hlm- sellf out In the early rounds; then again. he was outweighed by many pounds. Satisfactory enough?" We agreed It was. Nate then assured us that If ever White got Prltton In the ling again he would atone for that other affair. We shall see. Welsh Dodges Match. Freddy Welsh has cleverly dodged a match with White for July 5, but Char ley Is still hopeful of engaging the cham pion In combat on September 27. Lewis Is willing to make any concession to in veigle Welsh Into the match, even- If going to the extent of contributing to ward Welsh's puree. ' So supremely confldont Is White that he will become the next champion that he will agree to any agreement Welsh suggests In order to clinch the match. Sh agree to Come Back. Joe "Young" Bhugrue, who put up some astonishingly good battles In this vicinity before Ma eyes went back on him, necessitating several operations, ex pects to return to the ring by early Sep. tember. Joe has regained the sight of one eye. and the other Is manning ra pidly. Bhugrue became temporarily blind after he had outpointed Champion Welsh in ten rounds at the Garden. Two-Hundred-Mile Motorcycle Race to Be Staged in Omaha Some time between July ( and August U. probably about July 25, a 300-mll. mo tcrcycle rare will he held on the Omaha uto speedway. Such Is sn announce ment made by Bert Le Hron, president ol the afieedwsy company. Since the pop-pop boys have been clip ping off 100 miles an hour at the motor cycle saucer Omahans havs . been anx ious to see long-distances races such a are held on. the Pacific coast. Le Bron, In a conference with the riders now here, decided that such a race could be held, end In a short time tha date will be set Any rider, be he amateur or profes sional, will be permitted to enter this ctntest providing, of course, he Is a reg. Istered rider of the Federation of Ameri can Motorcyclists, under whose sanction the meet will be held. A large purse will be put up for the winner and for several of the subsequent Places. The winner will be awarded the championship of Ne braska and lows,. It la thought that the first mxehlns will clock home In a little over two hours and the race ahould be entirely com pleted In three hours. All of the riders now at the Btadlum Speedwsy will enter the event They will have to get different machines from the factory, as the machines they now use are short-distance machtnei and would bum Hp after twenty-five or thirty miles. It Is expected that some twenty five machines will be entered In the event when It la ataged. Hlrnty Waats Ilia Pay. It is said that Joe Birmingham, the deposed Cleveland manager, Intends to put Up a fight to collect salary on his contract with President Homers. Bir mingham's contract with the Cleveland club holds good until IMS, and he Intends to either secure a compromise or fight for full pay. TEACHES MAISEL HOW TO HIT Dan Broutheri, Famous Slugger of Old, Makes .300 Hitter of Little Yankee Third-Sacker. WAH00 IS TO COACH CARLISLE Br Put K fi. MEKKE, NEW YORK, June M.-Den Brouthers. famous as a slugger In the bygono days of base ball, aeems to have developed Frits Malsel of the Yankees Into a nifty little cloutcr. Matanl's greatest weakness up to the early part of this gVason was his bat ting. He used to use light war club and swing with all his might. 'Don't do thst," Brouthers told Malsel shortly after the season opened. "You've got a good eye and good Judg ment and you would oe a good hitter if you didn't swing so hard." HoWll I swing, then?" asked Malsel of Brouthers, who Is employed at the Voo grounds. 'Get a big club and swing easily." was the answer. "Just swat the ball; dont' try to kill It. Alwaya use a big bat When you use a light one It's too great a temptation to awing with all your might That puta you off your balance and you oan't hit successfully. An the leading batters of this day and of the old days use heavy bats." After Brouthers had spent about half an hour a day 'for a week teaching Malsel haw to use a big bat and how to awing It Malsel carried the bl- bet Into a game. The result was that Malsel got two bits. The next day ha got two more and ever since he's been hitting at a .800 clip. A Bright Caddie. Caddies sometimes have a ready an swer for disgruntled golfers, as the fol lowing story will show: ' A dub golfer went on the Hike one day to practice. He sliced In a horri ble fashion and his caddy had to run to every quarter to retrieve the bail. After three hail bad been lost (he golfer. In sn angry mood, snapped: "Boy, I thought you came out here to look after the balls?" And the caddy responded: "Well, roister. If you thought that way It seems that. we both made a sort of mistake, because I thought you cane out here to play golf." Web no (a Beoceed Warner. Carlisle foot ball authorities probably will name Charley Wahooae coach for the IMS foot ball eleven to take the place of Glen Warner, who resigned during the winter to take charge of the University of Pittsburg outfit. Wahoo was one of the most famous Indians that ever played an end posi tion. He waa on the 18OS-06-0T Carlisle elevens and since then has coached some of the elevens In the south. ; Lajoie Teaches Haloae, ' '. Larry Lajole is showing his real man hood by devoting all his leisure time to teaching Ted Malone, the new second ssi ker of the Athletics, the Intricacies of th second basing joe. Malone la a 1915 college graduate and looka like a comer. Lajole la old and fading. Without Lajole's aid tt might be two or three years before Malone aould develop Into a real star. For just that length of time Lajole would be pretty aure of his Job aa an Athletic regular. l.ut Lajole doesn't think about himself. Hi Is thinking about tha man he Is Ing to develop his successor as qvlekly sa possible, not minding what will become of htm after Malone pushes him out of his regular Job. Jobi Has Hard THsje. John Relsler, who used to devote him self exclusively to bartering New York's elite, and who later branched off Into the managing game, seems to be an un lucky Individual. John guided thi des tinies of Willie Beecher for a consider able period. He yearned to match Willis with Freddie Walsh. He got his chance-' on twenty-four hours' notice. Beecher, many pounds over weight and cut of condition, was called upon to sub atlute for Charley White In New York during the winter. Beecher waa game; he accepted the bout and battled Welsh for ten rounds, but he waa In such poor shape that Welsh shaded him by a mile. . Later on John the barber parted com pany with Beecher and took unto him self a nifty looking lightw eight t.amed Young Brown. This Brown person made a fine showing In and around New York. John the barber had visions of some day telng the manager of the lightweight j cl.amp of the world. And then ilrown tackled Charley White and the dream faded because White knocked out brown In the first round. Roche, Torek a.... M 12 32 K IS IS VMIHams. St. J....Mli M 0 4 Mclntyre.
