How come? again you ask.
Let's take a dip into history via
the record . "
1-cvins.ky was the light-heavyweight
champion of the entire globe
until' October 2. 1920, when
Georges Cftrpcntier bumped the
"Battler" off ; and grabbed himself
the crown. Oeorges has'bcCn wear
ing it ever since. . . v . 4
However. Levinsky was'the light
heavyweight champ of the U. S.
Out .in Portland, Ore.. December
8. 1'JJtl. Levinsky and Boy McCor
inick clashed. Both weighed in un
der the required limit, which made
the tussle a championship attair. Mc
Wormick won in the seventh round
on a foul.
' I'ndcr all existing rules Lcvinsty
lost the championship of the United
States.
Vet. more than a year later. Le
vinsky. parading as the light-heavyweight
champ, was matched with
Gene Tunney in a title bout. Tun
ney won the "light-heavyweight
championship" outpointed the vet
eran. Meanwhile, the unsung champ,
McCormick, picked himself out a
boat and "went to England. He got
in a quarrel with Ted Lewis and
1 he latter knocked the Boy rolling
for a technical knockout in the 14th
round.
That would indicate that Lewis
is the .American champion of the
Jight-hcavies.
I'crhaps the managers of Levin
sky and Tunney 'may be able , to
. prove someway, somehow, that the
.McCormick-Levinsky affair wasn't
a veal honest-to-goodness champion
ship affair.

Sport Along Pacific Seaboard
Chicago, Feb. 15. Water golf is
the latest addition to aquatic sports,
according to word received from
Jock Hutchinson, British open cham
pion, who has just finished a tour of
the Pacific coast.
Along the southern California sea
shore men and women are playing
the game by driving the ball from a
floating tec, while standing . in a
canoe or a boat, paddled by an as
sistant. Bathing suits are worn by
the players and their seafaring cad

St. Louis. Feb. 15. Following the
example of the Chicago National

ers of the two local major league

their contracts for the year, it was
made known yesterday.
The first squads of the two teams

While golf in its native land of
Scotland was originally played along
the sands of 'the tieashorc, it never be
fore has been translated to the sur
face of the water, although odd
cases have been reported in which
golfers played a ball from the edge
of a water hazard.
Naturally the new game violates
the cardinal rules of land golf, be
cause the jJlaycr is assisted by his
caddie, who steadies the boat while
the stroke is made. The ball cannot
be putted into a hole as is done on
land, but may be shot at a fixed area
in the water, and the game is played
with many variations as to scoring
and length of links.
While the new game is in an ex
perimental stage, golfers say it
promises to develop much as water
basket ball and water polo, and
other aquaeous games have grown
from their dry land progenitors.

Huggins, manager of the New York
Yankees, here in a few days, talk of
a trade between the Yankees and the
Chicago White Sox has again blos
somed out.
Manager Glcason has announced
repeatedly that he is willing to talk
business only if "they can show me
some, pitchers." The Yankees, it
was said, have not given up hope of
obtaining Amos Strunk, White Sox
outfielder, to play for them dining
the suspension of Meuscl and Ruth,
and it is believed here that Huggins
may attempt to get the outfielder for
Pitcher Lefty O'Doul, and probably
Mitchell.
O'Doul, who performed on the
Pacific coast last season, was recalled
by the Yankees. He is said to be a
promising twirlcr, but whether this
trade will be acceptable to Manager
Gleason remains to be seen.
