Heavyweight Champion of the World,
(Copyright, 1121, by King Features Syndi

Atlantic City, June 27. Hit the
old home stretch in the. training
program yesterday afternoon.
With the big battle only a few
days away, I put everything I had
into seven stiff rounds with the big
fellows. My orders to them were to
let loose with everything they had
and not to Spare me in the slightest
I wanted to test out my jaw and
stomach.
It was a great workout with four
different men all of it topped off
with a two-minute rough and tumble
affair with "Bull" Montana, the great
matinee idol of the movies who is
prouder of. the fact that he looks
like a monkey than one of our
leading actors is over the fact that
he's handsome.
Put a whole lot of energy into
the seven rounds of battling with
the boys and was anxioifs to call
it a day when I completed some
setting up exercises. I was just putting
my sweater on preparatory to jump
ing out of the ring when the Bull
bellowed through the ropes and, see
ing me making preparations for an
exit, howled: Ha, he e-e-s afraid of
me."
' That settled it. I just grabbed
"Bull" by the ears and pulled him
half way around the ring and he
roughed it back. We were to do
some shoving, but every time I
would shove a little hard "Bull''
would get into a clinch and punch.
I wore the old. boy down by twisting
and turning him around until he

was dizzy and then I scored the only
knockout of the afternoon by dump
ing him on the floor and beating it
to my rubbing room betore Bun
could get a chance to throw the
arena furniture at me.
Eddie O'Hara gave me a speedy
two-round work. I wanted him to
tear into me more than he has in
the past so I could get practice
meeting a fast attack. So Eddie kept
in close and the two rounds was
made up largely of infighting.
Herman Miller, a wrestler-fighter
from Baltimore, dropped into camp
and wanted to work out a round
with me. I consented. Herman
started right off by trying to knock
me from Atlantic City to Nova
Scotia. He picked up his right
handers from the floor and swung
with about 200 pounds of bulk be
hind it.
I half hooked, half jabbed a left
to Herman s jaw. Then he gave me
the office to "punch a little easier,
please." I did and we went along
the rest of the way with Herman
doing most of the swinging. I bet
that bird has a tired right arm tO'
dav.
Larry Williams came on for two
rounds followed by Jack Kenauit tor
two more. Both boys gave me
some snappy practice. Larry's job
was to keep me fighting at close
range. Jack stayed away and let
me practice long shots.
At the end of the day I reckoned
that my condition at this time is
everything that I have hoped for and
my hope is that I will be in better
shape for Carpentier than l was tor
Willard.

Seven White Sox
Put on Trial for
Throwing Game
Four Others Declared to Be
Too 111 to Face Jury Are
Subject of Investigation
By Judge.
Chicago, Tune 27. Ten of the 18
defendants in the base ba.ll trial
which opened here today put in an
appearance. The suspended White
Sox players, Felsch, Cicotte, Wil
liams, Jackson, Gandil, Weaver and
Risbeg were on hand when the
case was called. Fred McMullin,
the other indicted player, is on the
Pacific coast and his attorneys stat
ed that he would appear whenever
the court ordered him to. He is not
under bond.
With the seven players there also
appeared three other defendants, Ben
and Louis Levy and David Zelser.
Carl Zork and Ben franklin ot M.
Louis, both of whom are under bond,
were not in court, but their attor
neys presented affidavits to the ef
fect that both were ill and asked for
a continuance.
Probe Illness of Men.
Judge Friend ruled that Zork must
come to trial at once. He also or
dered an investigation of the condi
tion of Franklin.
After attorneys for Zork and
Franklin had filed affidavits relative
to the illness of their clients, the
state filed- an affidavit from a St.
Louis man stating he had seen Zork
walking on a street last Thursday
night.
Attorney Frumberg, counsel for
Zork, said he was unable to talk
ever the case with his client because
the latter was too ill. "When I
would question him," Frumberg said,
"he would turn white and cry and
tremble, and it was impossible to
continue the conversation."
Indicted in September.
The investigation into alleged
gambling, bribery and game throw
ing in major league base ball was
opened officially in September, 1920,
when Judge Charles A. McDonald,
chief justice of the criminal court,
charged the Cook county grand jury
with investigating reports which had
come to his attention concerning
"fixed" games.
The grand jury investigation
which followed brought league pres
idents, club owners and star athletes
to the witness stand. It finally re
sulted in the indictment of eight
members of the world champion
Chicago White Sox team, two form
er major league players, two alleged
gamblers and a former world cham
pion pugilist on charges that they
had conspired for the White Sox
team to deliberately lose games in
the 1919 world series with the Cin
cinnati Reds. It also was charged .
that certain Sox players had accept
ed bribes ranging as high;s $f?,CW
to throw games.
Through the investigation a world
champion team was wrecked and
conditions were revealed which
eventually resulted in a new deal
for base ball with Federal Judge
kenesaw M. Landis as civilian base
ball commissioner with suprenw
powers to run the professional game
as he- saw fit with the object of
keeping crookedness out of it for
ever. PAone
