Jack Kearns thought it would do me more harm than good to take a chance on stiffening up ray muscles in a cold gymnasium. This was my first day of real idleness since the training camp opened and the boys took advantage of it to have a lot of fun during the day. Early this morning I received the sort of gift that pleases mc more than anything else. It was a pure white English bull terrier, that is, he was pure white after i got him washed up. When he arrived by ex press from Spokane he was almost as black as 'coal. The friendly bag gagemen on tram didnt bother to give him a bath, but they must have fed him a dozen times a day. lie was as fat as butter and won his way into the friendship of everybody even Dr. Hemingway and Sophie Gtnsberg, my two half wolf hounds. The newspaper men insisted oh an immediate clm'stening so we took him out and christened him Reno Jack with rain water in honor of Reno Jack McCaffery, the wild man of newspaper row. The pup was only 4 months old ahd was sent by a friend of mine Training Religion Of Adam Kreiger ' Lincoln, Neb., May 26. Training is the religion of Adam Kreiger, the new .claimant of the welterweight wrestling championship, according to his manager, Charlie Moon. Kreiger is a Lincoln product, coming here from Russia when a small boy. During his early youth he worked in the beet fields of west ern Nebraska, where he developed a sturdy set of muscles that made him the champion wrestler of the beet fields. Since becoming 16 years of age Kreiger has been in continuous training and now, at the age of 26, he claims the 145-pound championship. He is married and the father of three children. All his bouts are attended by his young wife, who is the least excited spectator in the audience as to the outcome. Kreiger won his claim to the title by defeating Jack Reynolds of Cedar Rapids, la., and Chicago in straight falls, using the double wrist lock and scissors both times. Dempsey's Camp Barricaded from LuriOUS fight tanS Atlantic City, N. J., May 26. Jack Dempsey, like Georges Carpentier is well-barricaded- from the thou sands of curiou9 fight fans who have attempted to view him at close range. Rarriers are encountered oir every side. The tract of 160 acres in which the camp is located is bounded by a fence 10 feet high, and to reach the eastern fence the inlet, a body of water nearly a quarter of a - mile wide, has to be crossed. . Dempsey' is on view to spectators each afternoon at 3 o'clock, when he begins1 his daily, workout. American Association St. Paul, May 26. ' ' B. H. B.

'C- 'i: event will be raced on Wednesday, fsCamD on the coast. What pleased me a lot was the note attached ,to his col lar by the baggagemen. They wished me all the luck in the world and said they hoped I'd keep the title over here. . "Bull" Montana, the wrestling movie star, arrived in time to hold the pups tail at the christening. "Bull wrestled Irslinger, a local man, on one of the piers last night. When I was on the coast "Bull" and I put on an exhibition wrestling match. Neither of us ' got a fall so I'm going to challenge him to come out here tomorrow and try it again.. I put in most of the afternoon reading novels and papers. The newspapermen went hack to town early. They were all at a dinner tendered to them and Jack Kearns by a local hotel last night. The party must have been up rather late because they were a tired looking bunch even Jack White, the Bronx comedian, couldn't keep them awake. I am going to double my -work-today to make up for my holiday yesterday. I am going to take a long road run, if possible, and put in eight or 10 hard rounds with my sparring partners. At that, one of the boys said I took off a lot of weight today when I got my first shave in several days. Some Sparring Partner 1 8 This Bird Jour nee Who Hails From Paree Manhassett,' N. Y., May 26. Paul Journee, French heavy weight and sparring partner of the blonde Georges Carpentier, aspirant to the world's heavy weight boxing title, looks beside Georges, like the sides of the grand canyon to a burro,, His great hands, reminding one of the choice picnic ham, hang almost to his knees. Paul has to stoop to pass through an ordinary doorway, and his shoulders are so broad the rest of his body seems to hang, like fringe on a lady's dress. He never smiles, this giant he just scowls. Every now and then he growls, whereupon the camp shakes. SrPro5nd Amateur! Twilight League Farmed.

New York won the first game, S to 3, and Boston took the second, 4 to 3. in today's double-header. Poor fielding by Boston and Kelly's hitting were responsible for the Giants' victory.

Elimination of the American contestants for the British amateur golf championship recalls that the only American who ever won the title was Walter J. Travis.- a member qt the Garden City ' Golf cluh. New York. That was June 3, 1904, at Sandwich, Eng-landc Catholic Priest Started Tommy Gibbons on Ring Career (Cop) right. 1021. by King Feature Syndicate, Inc.) About 10 years ago Tom Gibbons had serious "thoughts of becoming a Catholic priest; today he is regarded by many as the logical foeivtan for Jack Dempscy. And, the curious part of it is that a Catholic priest really got him enthused about box ing. Tom was a student at St. Thomas college in St. Paul, presided over by Father John Dumpily, an athlete of no mean ability. Father John had a system of his own in dealing out punishment to youngsters who frac tured the school rules. Let Tom tell about it. "I busied a regulation one after noon and was caught in the act. Father John gravely informed me that he wished to see me in the gym after class. When I got there he was putting on a pair of gloves. He handed another pair to mc. I put them on wondcringly and was still considerably puz2led when he squared away, and, after inviting mc to "tear in" planted a light but stinging jab on my nose. "'That,' he grinned, 'is part of your punishment.' 'And that'-he jabbed again 'is a little more. And more is coming. Put up your hands and conic in at me. I want to pun ish you tor what 3-ou did today. Tigers Split Two Games With Sox , Faber Knocked Out of Box Before One Out Completed Make 8 in First. Detroit, May 26.
