Be an Attorney.
onrss to battle welsh
lfCW YORK. Dec S.-TH millennium
fa boring tame h arrived. It haa
been predPlted br Wallac. nea
AM Kewalllck. who, despite the latter
kn. la rhamnlon featherweight of'
Brooklyn. Wallace haa upset all ring
tradition and precedenta by using the
fighting am aa a mean of attaining
Ma life's ambition. Wallace would be
come a member of thla nation'! Judiciary,
and If persistency la rewarded little Eddie
win re I Ik hi dream.
Wallace la a ring oddltr In many way.
21 la th fim of the boxing clan to
choose the law aa a meana of livelihood
when M fighting days are o'er. He It
also the firnt to box two champion In
different revisions within the apace of a
month. Bealdea being a boxer and an
embryo lawyer. Wallace la a business
man. It haa Invented a good deal of hla
ring earning In a laundry route. Ilia
Ineomes are varied, but at present boxing
bring him th greatest revenue.
We are picking on Wallace because he
la auch an unusual young man for a
fighter. In the preceding paragraph we
enumerated a few of the thing that have
tnad Mm unusual. Now. t elaborate on
hla achievement.
Last February February 2, to be pre
elae Wallace fought. Kid William,
world" featherweight champion, a hard
ten-round draw. Wallace waa compelled
to make weight 120 pound rlngalde a
low weight for him. He entered th ring
In a weakened condition; yet matched th
champion in skill and punching power
throughout tb ten round.
Tha Battles Feather Chasnp.
Joat four week later Wallace entered
tha tame ring, but thla time hla opponent
wa Johnny Kllban, champion feather
weight of th world. Wallac alao mad
weight for Kllban-1K Bounds rlnrmd.
Thl la hla normal poundage, and he gave
Auoen th fight of hla young life. R.
cently, In reviewing hla ring career, Ku
ban declared that Kddl Wallace gav
htm th hardeat battle h ever experl
eooed. Quit a compliment from a cham
pion. Two week after th Kilhan affair,
Wallac offered to fight Freddy Welsh,
th world' lightweight champion. But
Freddy pleaded a prevloua engagement.
Jd th match la at ill pending. Welsh
ha virtually promlted Wallace a date,
ad negotiation will be closed a eoon
aa Welsh return to New York.
Never Has Been Floored.
Wallac confesses to aeveral alight re
vwae tn th ring. He admit belntj
beaten by Kllban, and on or two other.
But he haa never been floored; and thla
la a record few boxer can boast of then
day. Eddie la a philosophical lad, and
hla head la not turned by hla success In
th ring. II devote all hla spare time
dareing Into law book, and In a year or
proposes to take an examination for
aroniMion to the bar.
A favorite expression of Wallace' Is:
"If I can't beat them to tha punch, raayb
I can argu them out of th decision."
But Edd! celdom haa to Ulk hla way to
a verdict In the ring; he employ hla
flata to gain that end.
( Wallac la biding hla time for th Welsh
match; meanwhile he la eager for a re
tarn battle with Kllbane. Kdrfle I con
fident he can rovers their last reault
If given th chance. When he laat fought
th featherwel-ht boss Wallace was atlll
In a weakened condition from making low
weight for William.
Kllbane and Welsh these are the two
Wallace is after. If feel he haa
graduated from th bantamweight clean,
and win make no effort to fight In that
dhiatea again. Wallace haa outboxed a
number of lightweight contenders, among
inwm mil uioom and Johnny Dundee.
Weight ha no terror for Wallace, so
long aa hi opponent scale anywhere
from U0 to US pound,
Wllllama-Erd Aala.
Johnny -Kid'' WHllama and Johnny
Xewple'" EMU are soon to com to
gether In a match to settle the bantam
weight championship. Jimmy Johnston,
manager of Madison Square Garden,
mad th lad a proposition, and la wait
ing an answer.
Ertl, aftr winning Wllllama on a
foul, waa aver to giving th Kid a re
turn match. But he baa tine recon
sidered, and la willing even eager, for
another bout, aa he wfahea to establish
hla wperlority over Williams and thus
"eota tn. undisputed bantamweight
champion.
"Kswpla" Ertl baa a munn. ....

PECK SHOWS MEDICOS UP
Grid Star Breaks Leg in 1913 and
Doesn't Find it Out Until Late
Thii Fall,
PLAYS DESPITE BAD INJURY
By FRANK J, MtSNKK.
NEW TORK. Dec. 25.-What a vaat dlf
ferenc there 1 in the sameneee, the
flffhtlna aplrit and th caparlty for auf
fertna; between the profesaional base ball
player and th collet foot ball player.
Whenever a base ball "player contract
a alight headache, or a bruised nose, or
a skinned shin, he rushes off to the doc
tor's office, aummons a flock of medical
genta and nursta, and then dectdea to
take about four weeks' layoff until th
ache or abrasion ha dlseappeared.
But whenever the foot ball player la in
Jured well, read th can of Bob Peck,
the brilliant All-American center of the
University of Pittsburgh eleven.
Refaaea ta Have Doctor.
During the Pittsburgh-Washington and
Jefferson gam in 1918 Pack, who then
waa playing In th halfbaok position,
waa Injured. II waa in terrible pain for
many hour after th accident, but h
refused to let th doctor examine th
leg. fearing that th Injury really waa
serloua and that th doctor would order
him to th hospital.
Peck Insisted upon playing In th gam
th following Saturday and Played every
Saturday until the end of th season, but
he waa handicapped in hla speed by a
decided limp in hla right leg.
When th llttsburgh gridiron warriors
aaaembled for training in 1914 Coach Jo
Duff decided that Peck wouldn't do aa a
halfback. Ilia leg continued to pain him
and he had to humor It. II tried to walk
without a limp so that th roachea would
glv him a Job on tha eleven but Duff
noticed th limp.
Peck la a fiery, fearless player and one
whoa aggreaalveneaa helped greatly in
keeping up the spirits of his fellows.
Duff didn't want to lose him ao he tried
him out at center where six-ed Is not
ao essential aa it la In the back fit' Id. Peck
mad good Immediately at that position.
ana, despite the handicap of an ailing
leg, n ranked aa the greatest all around
center in tha country at the end of the
ltit eaon.
Broke Leal No Rssairs.
When th 1915 aeaaon boftan Peck waa
back at center for Pittsburgh, and It waa
h'a brill ant playing- that aided the Pitt
eleven In winning Its eight straight vic
tories. The limp atlll remained with
Peck; th pain In hla leg oftentimes waa
agonising. But he ignored the advice of
the coachea and hla teammate to go to
a doctor and bav it examined.
"What'll I do that forT" he asked.
"Maybe there really la something wrong
with It and tben I can't play any more."
In th carnegi gam this year Peck
got in a scrimmage and when the playera
untangled thenwelvea Peck lay at the
bottom f the hra aenti-consclous and
with hi leg doubled up under him.
Pueltloa t Called.
11 waa carried off the field and despite
Peck' protests a doctor waa called to
examine th leg. Th medical gent
monkeyed with the leg, hla fac took on
a pusxled expression, and then with
some comment about "extraordinary
ce" he called In another physician. And
this waa what they found:
Peck had broken hla leg in that mi
tame, between the shlntone and the ankle,
and nature in time welded together the
broken part. The bone, however, had
knitted in a ragged way and (or two
year th points of the broken parts had
been Jabblug thuualvg into th tu-h of
Rides Bicycle
to Keep in Condition
Peck' leg, causing excruciating agony at
tlmea.
"Peck'a leg waa not. really broken In
the 1915 Carnegie game," declared th doe
tors. "Th mishap in that gam merely
dislocated th knit that followed th
fracture of two year ago."
Th doctor ordered Peck to the hospital
so they could place hla leg in a cast and
knit th bone properly. Peck told the
dootora to go to Chicago or Switserland
or com other foreign country, wrapped
around hi leg about 100 yarda of bandage,
got Into th gam th next Saturday,
played out th aeaaon and won for him
self the captaincy of th 11 Pittsburgh
eleven, and the honor of AlUAmerican
center. . s
And now, if the doctors will assure him
positively that they .will liberal him
within a week, Peck may agree to go to
th hospital and hav .mended th leg
that he broke more than two year ago.
HERE'S THE CASE OF LAST .
GENT TO JUMP TO THE FEDS
Irving Porter, a young outfielder with
th L.ynn team of the New , England
league, may .be noted la history a th
last Jumper to the Feds. H agreed
to flop Juat before th New York meet
ing and. when th storm broke, he .hast
ened to find his ma eager, Lou Fieper
of Lynn, and ask that he be forgiven.
Pieper told htm h wag safe, since he
had not played a gam' with th outlaw.
Largest Pair of Scissors in

, Br A, KUWIX LO.NG. " ,i
Jo Stecher la proud of th diamond
belt presented to him September .6 by
hla friends. ' But that la not the only
trophy presented him that day of which
h la really proud.
Llttl was said or It at th tlm. but
h waa that day presented with the. big
gest pair of aolssors tn the world. They
were galvanised Iron scissor, designed
by Colonel James C. BUlott of Weat

Oh, no, aur thing, they won't cut th
tail off a ehlrt. nor wilt they antp but.
ton off overalls. They aren't aharp.
They weren't made t be aharp.
But thla the atUsora do: They will
crush th breath out of any husky bloke
when Jo Stecher app'lea them to h
hort rib.
Jo applied them October to th
short rib of a lot of hla friend 'and
visitors at Dodge Juat after th diamond
belt and th clasors had been preaented.
Th boy had a lot of fun with th old
scissors, which were presonted aa sym
bolical of the famoua ecUsora hold with
which J Ktecher haa cruahed h!a way
to the summit of wreatllng popularity.
Who, but Colonel Jamea C. El.lott would
have thought of such a th!ng a present
