FRIENDLY BOUT AT NAVAL
I'ncle Sum's tars in a nnviil training station making a go of it in a bout
before ninny "f the other members in the training station. Boxing is looked
upon as more of a sport than a part of the training of the tar, but every
future naviil fighter Is taught bow to defend himself. Kvery one of the tars
likes to put on the "liig mils" and take on one of his pals for a few rounds.
It also supplies a lot of entertainment for the boys. The photograph shows
the tars engaged in their encounter and the throng of cheering mates urging
them on. Every man here is a fighter, and boxing tends to make him more
fit, and even better able to take care of himself.
At every other training camp throughout the United Stales, no matter for
what branch of the military or naval service the men are being trained, health

CHIEF MEYERS IS REAL INDIAN
Boston Catcher Played Both Football
and Baseball While at Dartmouth
1 8 Able Actor.
John T. Meyers, or Tortes, if you
want the Indian of It. was born in
Riverside, Cal., and Is n full-blooded
Mission Indian. His grandfather was
a chief and the Boston Braves' catcher
therefore comes honestly by bis nick
name. Meyers is twenty-eight years
old and lias played baseball in almost
every part of the country. He played
semi-professional ball in California
and Hie Southwest until he had saved
enough to go to college.
At Dartmouth he played both foot
ball and baseball, and in the deepest
portion of the baseball field at Han
over there is a stake driven into the
ground which marks the spot where a
home run by Meyers came to rest. It
was Hie longest hit ever seen by the
collegians niid no one has approached
it since Meyers left Dartmouth.
The Indian got his first taste of
league baseball in the Tri-State. St.

such a good record that McGraw paid

showed hilling utility, banging up the
wonderful record of :.".) home runs on
the first training trip, but his catching
was very far below big league stand
ards. When McGraw finally let the In.

the Boston Braves. In addition to his
catching ability Meyers is an able ac

MACE BEATS SLASHER SLACK
First of Englishman's Long Series of
Victories Which Made Him Cham
pion of the World.
Jem M;i ee defeated Slasher Slack
in nine rounds at Mildenhall, England,
on October 2. IS'io. This was the
first of Mace's long series of victories
which made him the champion of the
world and the greatest boxer of his
time. About four years before Mace
had met Lieker Pratt in the ring, but
Pratt was an experienced fighter and
much heavier than Jem, and the lat
ter got a good trouncing. Before that
time Mace had traveled over England
playing the violin and giving sparring
exhibitions at country fairs, and his
experience with Tratt did not encour
age him to keep on as a pugilist. Sev
eral years passed before he again tried
bis luck in the arena, and his victory
over Slack determined him to take
up fighting as n profession. Mace
had gypsy blood in his veins, although
he was not a full-blooded son of Rom
any, as has been alleged. Small for
a heavyweight, his science and skill
enabled him long to maintain his en
premncy among the big fellows of Eu
rope and America.
Ring Pitches Well.

Buffalo, pitched the most effective ball

he pitched. Vean Gregg, of course,
was the real league leader. His aver
age was 1.72 runs to the game and he
pitched IMS" innings. He and Ring
were the only pitchers to hold oppo
nents to less than two runs to the
game.

Browns, Is taking fresh heart. Twice
