T'S an au revoir and good-bye for Fred Fulton as a tlum
rionhiu possibility.
The giant plasterer rirvrr again can be considered as
rival for Jack Dempsey'a tinseled crown. And. sadly
enough for tbe Fulton viewpoint, his elimination forever
came at just a tune when the chute were bring greased to
slide hint back into the ring again with the mighty walloper,

And the Public flopped for it.
.So great became the interest In
Fulton at the time that articles were
framed designed to give him a crack
at the huge Kama champion. But
someway, the thing fell through.
Fulton Gets Bumped.
Eventually the ai'compliitlimcnti oi
Fulton and those of Dempsey became
such that the two stood foremost
anions Willard'l challcncrrt. An
elimination battle was staged in Har
rison. X. J., in July, 1918 and
Dempshey bumped Fulton into
state of coma in 14 seconds.
Soon afterward Fulton yelled, "I
was double-crossed." He insisted that
it had been arranged that he and
Dempsey were to play a brother-in
law game just stroll along through
10 rounds so as to pave- the way
for more money through the medium
of a return dash.
"Hut Dempsey worked a double
cross by rushing in and hitting- me
with everything he had, maintained
Fulton. I wasn't prepared for the
onslaught, and, of course, I went
down." .
Afterward Fulton started out to
"redeem" himself. He knocked over
a half dozen second and third-raters.
Then he went to Europe and whipped
everyone there who would fight him.
When he came back he clammored
for another crack at Dempsey, who
had risen to championship greatness
by that time.
"The match might have gone
through if Fulton hadn't been lured
by the gold involved in a fight with
Harry' Wills, the giant negro. Fulton
was knocked overboard in a few
rounds and once more he was con
sidered down and out.
Kept on Showing.
Fred Fulton kept on striving.
Refusing: to be discouraged by his
defeats, he proceeded to build anew.
By hammering cuckoo a rather im
posing collection of the fistic gentry,
he once again reached a place where
he commanded attention whenever
he yodeled:
I wanna fight Dempsey.
There was then a chance that he'd
get it despite the fact that Dempsey
had polished him off once with ridic
ulous ease and that Wills had made
of him a punching l)ag. For Ful
ton's poor showings always seemed
to admit some alibi. There was
always the thought in the minds

of iom that maybe Dempsey had
executed the criss-cross on him; that
Wills actually had won by foul lac
tio. as Fulton charged.
Heyond those two battles, Fulton
had shown up wonderfully. In most
of these a flairs of the fists, he had
done all that was asked all that had
been hoped for by his moct arden
admirers. lie had what was regarded
as the best left hand in the buMiiess;he
had defensive cleverness, at least fair
speed and a powerful right hand
maintained it wasu t a lack of cour
drive.. 1 1 is scoffers said he didn't
have a fighting heart; his friends
ttf that it was ill luck."
And to the debate continued un
til the night, a few weeks ago, when
lie took on Hartley Madden.
Madden No Setup.
Fulton wandered into New York
early in January and then and there
was Jramed the plan whereby he was
to be fed on setups with Madden as
No. J for the purpose of buildine
him up for a return battle with Demp
sey. But .Madden, with nothing but
lion-hearted courage and ability to
take punishment, wrecked the plans.
Madden, outweighed 35 Bounds.
and a midget in size compared with
Fulton, made the giant plasterer look
like a laint-hearted novice that night.
He bumped and belted Fulton all
around the ring. In the 10th round,
the "punchless" Madden smacked
rulton on the chin and nearly knock
ed him overboard. Only the wild
eagerness of Madden.vho shot wild
punches, instead of steDoinir away
and planting one or two well-chosen
ones in the right spot thereafter,
saved Fulton from being knocked
out. : '
And when the 12-round battle was
over, the echo of the bell meant noth
ing more nor less than the death
knell of Fulton s hopes of ever Bet
ting another battle with Dempsey
and ended for all time consideration
of Fred Fulton as a top-notcher in
the heavyweight ranks. '

Washington, Jan. 30. Fifty thou
sand dollars in cash was paid for
Koger I'eckinpauEh, the veteran
shortstop, it was announced here by
Uark Orilhth, president Of the Wash
ington American league baseball
club. This was the first official an
nouncement of the price paid for
Peckinpauzh.
Ihe land I'eckingpaugh, I also
disposed of three ball players,
Frank O'Rotirke, Jose Acosta and
Bing Miller," Onflith said.
Griffith did not say whether the
money was paid to Boston or Phita
delphia, or whether it was split be
tween them. The impression pre
ails here that Philadelphia got most
of it, if not the entire sum.
Two Considered
for Lead-Off Job
New York, Jan. 30. John Mc-
Graw, leader of the world champion
Giants, has gathered a great squad
for the 1922 campaign, but he is beset
with a worry that never bothered
him before he parted with George
Burns. -
"Yes, said McGraw, before he left
for Cuba several days ago, "tell me
who'll I use for a lead off man. I've
got plenty of hard hitters, including
Groh, Frisch and Young, butT want
to use 'em in the cleanup spots..
"Groh lias had leadoff experience,
ut when he swings at a ball he sel
dom misses. I need him at bat when
men are on the bases."
McGraw said he thought Frisch,
free hitter, was best suited for the
third or fourth niche and that Young
was always good somewhere around
the cleanup position, leaving Bancroft
as a possible leadoff man, for Meuscl
and Kelly are not being considered,
and the Giant leader doesn't want to
take a chance on any of the new
men. ' .
So it's a toss up between Groh and
Bancroft.

Caddock nd "Bisco" wrestled at
Des Moines, November 7, 1921, and
the champion won in two falls, win
ning the first in 1 hour and 20 'sec

The Iowa pride was many pounds
lighter than the Pole, who won after
sapping his lighter foe's endurance.
Melady argues that the new rules
under which they meet Monday will
offset weight differences and that
Caddock will have a much better op
portunity to throw Zbyszko by his
superior speed and variety of holds.
Caddock Much Lighter.
Earl will enter the ring weighing
around 183 pounds, while Zbyszko's
avoirdupois will be between 230 and

the ancient ana honorable game
of golf it a state of mind and h
player it motivated by a spirit of
sellishneis. Coif j a hobby and is
not comparable with baseball,
Ilicte ani other icutiuirnK were
expressed before the city council cf
the whole this morning by tity com
missioner J. U. Hummel of the park
department; in defense of a proposed
ordinance for the aemciit cf (res
against those who itrouire the mil

and Miller parks,
An opinion by City Attorney Dana
M. Van Duten stated that the city
could not legally impose fees for
Using the Public links, but that
nominal charee miuht be made for
cards, button and for regulation of
the links.
Golf a Hobby.
This charge auain-t colters would
be a discrimination. Why not charge
the baseball players who ue the
diamonds in the parks?" aked
Commissioner Butler.
There is a difference, replied
Hummel. "There ball aamcs in the
parks provide entertainment for the
public. Thousands attend these
games every season. Did you ever
see a crowd following a golf player
at the links? '
Hummel explained lus position
that golf in the parks is a special
privilege and the players should pay
for this privilege, which he referred
to as a luxury.
Mayor Dahlman announced that
he would just as soon vote for an or
dinance to abolish the public golf
links, as to vote for an ordinance to
make a special charge for this privi
lege. He took the position that the
parks are for the public and that the
golf links are for all who care to play
golf under reasonable icgulations.
The park commissioner's plan is to
assess an annual fee and also a small
charge per game, which plan lias
been adopted in various cities, he
stated.
5,000 Used Links. -Last
year 4,000 golfers were issued
season cards and buttons :or me
public golf links and there were
nearly 1,000 additional occasional
players, making a total of 5.000 who
manifested an interest m the public
links.
The citv commissioners decided to
hold this matter in abeyance until
the committee of the whole next
Monday morning, when they will re
sume their deliberations on this im
portant question.
'oint Giving in
Tennis Disproved
New York, Jan. 30. Deliberate
throwing awav of points in a sports
manlike effort to correct supposed
mistakes by linesmen is to be dis
couraged during the tournament ten
nis season. I ne 4 ennis umpires as
sociation will discuss the matter at
the annual meeting of the United
States Lawn Tennis association here
next Saturdav
Outlining the umpires attitude R.
Clifford Black, chairman of the as
sociation, said:
' Why should a player striving to
win. deliberately give poiuts to ms
opponent if he thinks a mistake has
been made m his favor by a lines
man or umpire? It is undoubtedly
due to the fine sporting ideals of ten
nis. The practice probably dates
back to the visits of the Dohcrtys to
this country SQme years ago. The
lining was poor in those days and
the galleries applauded the players'
action as evidence of good sports
manship.' Our players, copied them.
While the practice is falling rapidly
into disuse it is still seen occasionally."

"I'd !ov to oo over this matter
with you." he told Jack, "hut it't
nearly dinner time and my wiie is in

We have only been married six days,
and we motored to New York on our

Just as soon as I telephone my

be there in less than an hour.
By the time they had made the trip
by automobile, however, the little
home was looking its best.
"What pretty flowers!' exclaimed
the blushing bride, after the intro
ductions wer over. "Oh, and they're
bridal roses!"
"Yes. indeed! That's the onlv
kind we grow in our garden." said
proud Jack. "Jill raises all kinds of

They were soon seated at the
hie. and the guests raved over the
delicious soup, as Jill looked a lit
uncomfortable.
"Jill is a wizard w ith soun, there's
no denying." admitted Jack, as
chesty as though he had cooked it
himself. Ot course, they re our po.

"And such a wonderful roast of

Common Sense
By J. J. MUNDY.
Are You Planning to Branch Out
for Yourself?
Perhaps often, the thought comes
to you. when you have to hustle to
your place of employment so as not
to be five minutes late, that you
ought to be your own" boss, with none .
to tell you when you should come
to work.
But have you ever done any
branching out for yourself?
When you have thought ahout it,
it has been the likelihood of being
tied down to one place, and the big
chances of losing what you might
put into an individual concern which
have kept you out, not thought iof
worry and care.
Isn't it true you have thought of
another man doing the burdensome
part, other men assuming the anxiety
of the business management, and
yourself wholly irresponsible for re
sults, just to work your allotcd time
and keep going?
Thus you have drifted from year
to year.
Now, without any special qualifica
tions, do you think you should have
control of a business, and with no
special effort on your , part, you
should be out of the clock ringer
class? ;
If you did have a. business you
would work longer and harder and
worry more. '
If you did have a business you
would have to be on hand early and
late to keep things going right.
Don't go into business with the
expectation you will have an easy
road to travel. '
