4 .Tin; OMAILA SUNDAY HKK: SKPTEMBKH i, 1014. RENEW CHIP-MURRAY FEUD NATIONAL RACE A THRILLER! Williams'Victory Over Mclaughlin Biggest of a Decade Two Pngi Will Meet in San Fran cisco Wednesday. BOTH ARE MIDDLEWEIGHT MEN Arr Coateadlag for, tbei lllgbesl Haera la Tbetr Clan Fight Will Pterml Wb Is b TkamalAa. fly Rix.smK. NEW TORK, Sept . George Chip and Tllly Murnjr. contenders for the much abused middleweight championship, will renew their feud out In California on Ad mission day. which will be observed next Wednesday. Jim Coffroth la reepnnelble for th rematchlng of thla pair, and "Sunny Jim" will conduct festlvltle at hff Mission street arena In Ban Francisco. While th outoome of thla twenty-round tilt will have no effect on tile European war. It nevertheless will eliminate for all time one of the conbatanta aa a pre tender to the middleweight throne. The match also serve to brine to the nirfac the finer qualities of Oeorge Chip, aa unassuming a fighter aa ever drew on the gloves. Judging by Chip' minmr, he was never carved out to be a member of the boxing fraternity and ha mart have drifted Into the came by force f adverse circumstances. Chip la one of the few men In the ring today who la a conscientious fighter and withal a "game sport." He la one of the very few that can take a licking without whimpering and without offering an alibi for an under-atandard performance. Chip hee never ridiculed a victim nor dis credited a conqueror. He la one of the oddltlea of the ring, Inasmuch aa he never mlnglea with others of hla profession and doea not talk "shop" when nut of the ring. Nor doea he have much to aay when engsged in active battling, for he la too engrossed In the work at hand to bandy words with an opponent. r;lTlaer M array Another Chase. How many other fighter have done what Chip la doing In the coming matnhT He la giving Murray another chance after having acored a fifteen-round knockout over the Sacramento prototype of Stan ley Ketchel. Murray only a few months ago waa being hailed aa a "second Xetchel" on account of hla sensational fifhts. Hut since his defeat by Chip he resembles the late lamented "Michigan Aaln" only to the extent of wearing the same kind of fighting breeches. Chlp'a display of magnanimity In giv ing Murray a return bout la not hla first effort in thla line. The Newcastle middle weight haa done the aame thing twice be fore sines he attained prominence ir the boxing realm. Frank Klaus waa the first beneficiary, but he failed to Improve over his previ ous effort Klaus at the time waa gen erally recognised aa th middleweight champion, and Chip knocked him out In six rounds and a short time after repeated the dose In two rounda. Klaua haa not fought since. Sailor Petroaky then loomed up on the middleweight horlson. Th tough mariner endured Chlp'a onalaught for twelv rounda and then aunk. He waa granted a return match and Chip gained a twenty round decision over the seaman. Iat Independence day. Chip overcame Murray after fifteen rounda of furious milling. Murray had matters all hi own way for ten rounds, but In th eleventh Chip acored with a heavy body blow, and that wss th beginning of the end for Murray. He succumbed to Chip's wicked punch In th fifteenth round. Leaves Defeat i:aeslala1. When Al McCoy knocked out Chip with - punch George did not offer one word Ir. explanation of th surprising defeat ' o merely congratulated McCoy on hla ictory. packed hi trunk and went horn. I1 w strangely silent for a beaten boxer, particularly so for one recognised aa the champion of hla class. Chip elmlnated himself from th ring for several months, and when he returned to the arena he did so without fanfare. U had set hla mind upon fighting hla way back to recognition and a return match with Al McCoy. The latter haa warily avoided another meeting, but It aeema likely that th pair will get to aether again within the month, as sev eral local club ar angling for th match. Gunboat Smith haa evidently mended hi way. W hen Eugene Corrl decided gainst th ."Gooner" In hi battle with George Carpentler, th American was blghly Incensed and emitted a streak of blasphemy that mad ,om of those at the ringside blush. Smith said he would never pwtlclpst, another bout in .hik torrl should t selected as rrferc But It did not take Gunboat very 1ng to com to earth. He was not th K nd to permit a luscloua purse to escape him merely because h bore a little anl mosity toward th referee.

PIRATES PLAYING GOOD BALL Wewr York Clob tadlasr Itoatoa by Tery Xarrow Marala, ! he fleg May ftw la Aay One. of several Team. WuuKer, who esiily handK-d all Ills rixal cmild offer, the crowd at the Casino courts for the moat part dotitited th t"rlts of the victory. The defeat of Mcliugliltn, who comes from Califc-n'n, bv Williams, osaiu gives the eaxt the tennis title. By PRAXK O. MKXKR. NEW VOKK, Bert i.-The National league rac thla year has been filled with more thrill and mora aensatlnna' than any in all th other yenra of It history. And, as they say Jn claenlo Boston, "th end alnt yet." The Pirates stsrted things by grabbing Off about 99.44 per cunt of their first twenty games. They sipped ulong like a fourteen-lnch shell end everybody be gan to assure everybody els that he Plratea would be among those present In the well known W. B. Then came th amaahiip. Right at this point Brooklyn took th j bit In it teeth, ao to seak, and made a noise like a great ban ball team. They shot up through th ranka Ilk bullets and juat when the Brooklyn fans were dreaming pennant 1 reams, somebody hurled a wrench Into the Brooklyn ma chinery. In the meantime, th "poor Phillies" were doing stunts. They walloped the Olants, th Pirates, the Brave and nearly everybody els that came along. From a seemingly tall-ender the Phillies took on a real team aspect But their spurt waa short-lived. The Giants by th! tlmo seemed to have their sea lags and, after oonstderabl eklrmlahtng, besieged first placa and finally captured It. But they had a hard time fighting oft the Cincinnati Reda, W'ho played wonderful baa ball In th west and ram along to New Tork con fident of forcing th Giants to retreat. But th Giants didn't Then Cam Ik Cab. Than cam the Cubs, w ith a grand rush, storming flrat place with their heavleat artillery. But th Giant turned them back, just at a time when th Cub were within a hop, skip and jump of the cov eted position. For a brief spell things looked calm and serene from the Giants' standpoint and then the, Cards connected with a win ning streak and ahot along th first place goal. A few wallopings her and ther. coming at th time wbxn the Olant war winning over other foe, halted th Carda, and again th Giant nettled back figur ing they could take a healthy rat And then came th greatest thrill the greatest sensation of the year. Hope lessly In last place ealy In July, th Boston Braves gathered themselves to gether and catapulted from laat place to th top In a period of six weeks th most wonderful spurt In th history of modern base bait ' Beat All C'ontn, Th remarkable feature of that spurt la th fact that th Brave hav trampled th good a well aa th bad team un der their charging feet.. Thy hav mt th Cubs, th Cardinal and th Giant and glvsn them beating just aa brutal a those administered to th second divis ion club. They hav swept forward ilk a tidal wave, carrying everything be fore them. What will th next four weak bring In this season of amasing dashea, start ling sprints, and great upsets? Will some thing 1 happen In th month before th season cloaes that will fore us to vote It as even a greater surprise than th onward ruh of th Braves T No on can foretell at this moment who will bo it the top of the National league heap whan th gong bang for th final round of thla battle royal. It may b th Braves, the Giants, the Cub or th Cardinals. And It may be some one else. Th other .clubs In the National seem to b too far In the rear of th first four at .this time to have even a ghost of a chance. But weeka sgj Boston waa In a much sorrier position. It had to jump from the bottom. An It had to trave a longer way than any of the team now In th second divialon would hav to travel to overtake tho leader. Th flrat piao Giant thn wer farther ahead of ' th last plac Brave than the dlatano that now divide th leader and th tall-enisr. It certainly a merry llttl war thy're staging In th old league.
