Dundee Won by Air Route, SayN Fans v. New York, March 18. Boxing en thusiasts of this city were convinced totty that Johnny Dundee of West Orange, N. J.. was a better serial fighter than Charlie White of Chi cago. The two lads met at Madison Square Garden last night, and the boy who had traded his Italian name of Giuseppe Carora for the Scottish monicker of Dundee was given the decision. . White, who in private life bears the peaceful name of Charles Anchowitr, did not have an anti aircraft gun, and thus could not cope with his opponent's unusual strategy. White worked his well-known left hand overtime during the earlier rounds, but it seemed to lack wreck ing qualities. After a few rounds , Dundee threw overboard the cau tion that marked the first phase of ' the battle and began to leave the floor on long plunges at White. He bounced off the ropes and landed on the startled Chicagoan be fore the latter could duck away. He vaulted into the blue, smoky at mosphere and planted bis two mitts squarely on White's jaw and then indulged in pyrotechnics that made even the spectators dizzy. Fans who go to see Dundee en gage in a melee generally get action, and last night was no exception. Johnson Bout Net Him i Not a Dime, Says Flynn Fort Worth, Tex., March 18. Jim Flynn of Pueblo, heavyweight pugilist, today revived memories of his memorable fight with Jack John son at Las Vegas, N. M.. in 1912, which was stopped by police after nine sanguinary rounds. Flynn di vulged the fact not generally known that the fight, despite a large patron age, did not net him a penny. He continued: "When I met Johnson at Las , Vegas I had all to gain and' not a thing to lose. I was to pet 35 per cent of all receipts over $30,000. Un fortunately, the bout drew $28,000 and I never reieived a dime. while Johnson took every panny in the House." , - Native Sons in Maj'ority on Detroit Ball Team Detroit will again be represented by a native sons' ball club. "Of '35 players 10 are from the east a.td north, and 25 from the west and south. In the latter division Cali fornia is represented by 11 players, more than any other state claims. Three of the recruits are from Cali fornia. The Californians: Johnny Bassler, Bert Cole, "Dutch" Leonard, ' Harry Heilman, "Red" Oldham, Howard Ehmke, Bobby Jones, Carl Holling, Fred Haney. Floyd Her man and George Cutshaw. Ira Flag stead of Montague, Mich., and Bobby Veach of Detroit are the only payers fiem the home state.

Barney Burch The Omaha Buf faloes will be headed by Barney Burch again this coming season. Bar ney held the lines during the latter part of last season, relieving Jack Lelivclt. The local club owner and manager is an all-around player and a valuable man to the team. Barney hurls a mean "slow" ball and can do back stop duty in good fashion.' Jack Lelivelt The Tulsa Oilers will attempt to capture Ta" Tear ncy's pennant this season with Jack Lelivelt leading the attack. Jack is a former Omaha Buffalo and a popu lar one at that. Lelivelt topped the lead in hitting last year and also shat tered the major league record for the number of hits swatted out during the season. He will be playing man ager for the Oilers. Joe Fisher The Oklahoma Indians have Joe Fisher as their pilot for the coming season. According to in formation received from the southern city, Manager Fisher is hard at work giving his athletes the once-over, Joe Dunn Who is to manage the Denver entry in the Western league this season, has had the novel ex perience of changing hands before he even got a chance to show his wares on the circuit. While Dunn was signed to man age the Toplin club this season, he is a total stranger to the Miner fans. His signature was hooked to man ager's terms by Tom Haydcn, for mer president of the Joplin club, dur ing the minor league meeting in Buf falo last December. For three years previous to sign ing with Hayden, Dunn had been manager of the Bloomington Bloom ers of the Thrcc-I league. In 1919 and 1920 he snagged the pennant for the Bloomers and the Three-I circuit went wild over hint. Nothing was too good for husky Joe and his con tract for 1921 was said to be one of the Lest ever offered a minor league skipper. It was far above con sistency with class B organization. But things didn't break so good for Joe in 1921. At the close of the race he pulled up with his Bloomers in sixth place, and the fans forgot all about the pair of rags he had won for them. Joe was a victim of the old baseball wag, "Vou're a hero one minute and a dub the next." And so he drew his release from the Bloom ington club. Hut Joe isn't the kind that quits and there are seven managers in the Western league who will do well to keep their eves on him this year. He is chuck full of "fightin' Irish" and when he gets going the feathers fly. He has had experience in the Pacific Coast and Southern leagues as well as serving in the majors with the Brooklyn Dodgers. Joe has a way of handling play ers that gets the stuff out of them if there is a spark to get. He is hustling all the time and the Den ver followers should lose no sleep fretting over their field boss, lie is still able to jump in and receive a creditable game and is invaluable in coaching young pitchers. Walter J. (Chink) Mattick, new part owner and player manager of the Sioux City Fackers, began his professional .career with the Oska loosa club in the Iowa State league under Hamilton Patterson in 1907. Mattick then was 17 years old. In 1908 Patterson became manager of the Pueblo (Colo.) club in the West ern league and took Mattick with him." : . During his first season in the Western league "Chink" was sold to the Chicago White Sox. but did not report until the spring of 1909. After returning to the north from the spring training trip the Chicago club released him to Des Moines under optional agreement. He played with I Des Moines m 1909. 1910 and 1911. the Sox recalling him in the fall of 1911. Mattick played in the outfield with the White Sox during the two years which followed and in 1914 was sent to the Kansas City American asso ciation team. In 1915 he went to Vernon in the Pacific Coast league, w here he again played under Patter son for two years. In 1917 Patter son, Mattick and "Doc" While pur chased the Dallas club of the Texas league. White sold his interest in the club to Patterson and Mattick, and the latter in turn sold out to Patterson previous to the starting of the 1920 season. Mattick remained with Dallas as a player until the close of the 1921 season. He had his second fling at the majors in 1918, when he was sold to the St. Louis Cardinals, but his stay there was interrupted by the early closing of the majors that season. Dick Breen The Des Moines club of the Western league will be managed during the 1922 pennant campaign by one of the real veter ans of the circuit, Dick Breen, for mer outfielder and catcher of the Sioux City, Desfoincs and Okla homa City clubs." Breen came to the Western league in 1910 as an outfielder with Sioux City. After playing there three years he was shifted to Des Moines, where he remained as outfielder and catcher until the middle of the 1920 season, when Jack Holland, owner of the Oklahoma City club, traded Catcher Jack Banner to the locals for him and made him the manager of -the Sooners, whom he brought from last place to third in the pen nant race. Last year Breen again managed Oklahoma City and had his team in the running all the way, Oklahoma and Omaha being the only clubs that gave the pennant-winning Wich ita aggregation . any opposition. Breen, however, could not get along with the club owner and became a free agent last fall. The local mag- JaLCl Loli'VGl-t ; QJoe Dunn nates immediately signed him to re place Jack Coffey, who had been here for five years and who is to manage the Hartford Eastern league team this year. Breen is noted for being a heady, hustling player. He probably will do part of the catching for Des Des Moines. Joe Berger, who piloted Wichita to a Western league flag last year, will again be at the helm at Wich ita this season. Berger has an en viable record in the Western league as both a player and manager. He has led three clubs for Wichita and has won two pennants, finished sec ond once and third, once. As a shortstop he has ranked as the peer of any in the league the past three or four years. Last season he had his best year, finishing at the top of the shortfielders in fielding and second in hitting. He is a vet eran, having been playing since 1907, and having spent three years in the majors with the Chicago White Sox. Wallace H. Smith, the new St. Joseph managcer, like the other Western league pilots this season will be a playing leader. Where he plays, he says, will depend on the develop ment of his players, but it probably will be first base, which he has cov ered since 1918. Smith has been in professional baseball 12 years. He started in 1909 with Calgary of the Western Canada league, playing third base. In 1910 he was with Calgary and Vancou ver, graduating to the St. Louis Car dinals, with which teams he played in 1911 and 1912. The following year he played ball with Atlanta, wearing a Washington uniform in 1914 and Minneapolis togs in 1915 and 1916. Illness and a doctor's ad vice caused him to hike to Arizona and play in the Copper league the next two seasons. In 1919 he ''was with Salt Lake City, and the last two years has been back with Minneapolis. Smith is a printer by trade and has been wintering in East St. Louis. He is married and has a son. Track and Field By Frank Loomis, Jr. World's Champion Hurdler HOW many track athletes actu ally know how to train them 1 selves for a championship meet? The question of getting yourself into physical condition plays an im portant part in t r a c k athletics. The grind of training is severe if your events are any distance more than 220 yards. The quarter mile and the half mile are perhaps more trying on an ath lete than any oth er indoor event. Take the man who runs i the quarter mile race. If he trains prop erly, his event will not be hard to run, and he will find each 440 yards he runs gradually becoming easier to him than when he first started training. When a good quarter miler is in condition you will find he does not have much more training to do throughout the season, as the com petition he encounters in the differ ent meets will carry him through. At the beginning of the year each quarter mile will seem like a killing event and at the same time be very discouraging. ' Must "Punish" Yourself. The champion, wTien first starting training for the 440-yard run, will overlook this discouragement, for he knows that punishment will put him into condition. This word, "punish ment," is the key to training. The beginner does not know how to pun ish himself, and until he learns he will never succeed in getting into the best of his condition. The punishment itself applies to the runner. When you run a rather fast 440 yards in practice, there is one place during that race that you want to let up your pace a little, on ac count of getting tired, and the be ginner will do so. The experienced man knows better and punishes him self by probably going faster when that little inclination tells him to slow up. In practice, after doing this a few times, he will gradually find that this inclination to slow down lias left him. When this time comes he is in the best of physical condition, ' Take Advantage of Defeats. If an athlete is in god shape phy sically, he gains confidence enough to work his frame of mind to a point where only superiority will defeat him. . The quarter mile requires strength, which can be gathered by training, speed and experience. To get ex perience that will help an athlete must taste several defeats. Take advantage of each race to study why you were beaten, then correct your mistake in the next meet. Enter races to win and se cure racing experience, but be sure to be in condition so you can race and not iust merely run the distance. Tennis Tourney Entry Records Broken at Frisco ' San Francisco, March 18. Worlds records for entries in world, tennis tourneys were broken this week, it has been asserted, when the total number of boys and girls entered in the coming fourth annual San Fran cisco playgrounds tournament was announced as 1,725. The girls numbered 887 and the boys 838. Hockey Teams Play to Tie Boston, March 17. The West minster Hockey club and the St. Paul club, playing for the cham pionship of the U. S. Hockey asso ciation, went through three regular and three overtime periods of their third game tonight without scoring. This leaves the Boston team with a two-game and a four-goal lead. j Ohio Faculty Plays Golf Columbus, O., March 18. The golf bug has bitten faculty folk at Ohio State university. When a makeshift course was laid out on the campus last spring more than 150 professors, wives and . students took up the ancient and honorable game. Now athletic authorities are planning a nine-hole course along the Olentangy river as an added feature of the new Ohio . stadium. A pro fessional will be called in to look over the site. Dave Shade Wins J Canton. O.. March 18. Dave Shade, Pacific coast welterweight, won a newspaper decision over Jim my Jones of Alliance, in a 12-round bout here last night. j Yale Swimmers Shatter Five World's Records New Haven, Conn.. March 18.- Five world's records were smashed in Carneie pool Jast night by the championship Yafle swimming team. N. T. Guernsey, of New York broke his , own record for the 75-foot plunge when he won the event in 03 seconds flat. A yale relay team made up of 18 swimmers established new world's marks for the 400, 500 and 600-yard and one-mile relay races. Eighty Aspirants for Ohio Baseball Team Columbus, O., March 18. Attract ed by the scarcity of letter men on the campus this spring, 80 candidates are in a merry scramble for varsity baseball berths at Ohio State uni versity. When Captain-Elect "Pat" McNulty withdrew to go south with the Cleveland Indians, only Out fielder Fesler and Cotter, Griffith and Dudley, who saw more or less pitching service last year, were left to form th nucleus of the Buckeye entry in the 1922 Western conference. Famous awaiian Amateur Swimmer Now Professional Duke Kahanamoku, Hawaii's world champion sprint swimmer, is now a professional, F. Fullarb Leo, secretary of the Hawaiian division of the Amateur Athletic union, de clared recently when the duke an nounced he had signed a contract to appear in motion pictures. The avowed intent to make money through fame gained in amateur ath letics is held to be sufficient, Mr. Leo said, to professionalize an amateur. Twenty-Year-Old Golfer Drives Golf Ball 415 Yards New York, March 18. (Spe ciaL) Word has been received from England of a phenomenal drive credited to Frank Dennis, a 20-year-old professional of the Crewe Golf club. The drive, made from a tee slightly above the green, measured 415 yards. The hole ia 33S yards long and the ball pitched on the ground, which was frostbound, and ran over the green 80 yards beyond the hole. Dennis drive is considered one of the greatest recorded, and is in the same class as that credited to Scott Campbell, the Spring Lake golfer. Only 'Lady Luck' Kept Nourse Oils From First Position at Toledo Bud Logan and Padgett Draw Ilcfcrces Peci.ion Meet With Disapproval of Fans. "Bud" Logan, Omaha welter weight, and "Cowboy" Padget of Denver or thereabouts, battled to I 10-round draw st the Orpheum Gar den gyntiuMum Friday night Referee Mitchell pronounced the bout a draw, but a Urge majority of the fans present thought otherwise. 1 hr.e .ime fam voiced their di.ap proval of the decision by booing the veridct. ... The "Cowboy" started in from the start, and not once during the 10 rounds of battling did he let Mr. Logan have time enough to display anv great amount of ring tactics. Padgett was the aggressor throughout, and from the sixth until the end of the battle had Logan on the receiving end of his punches.' In the early stages of the bout the local welterweight outpointed and outguessed the westerner, but after the half-way mark Padgett rushed Bud from gong to gong, and in sev eral instances, nearly had the Oma han on the canvas. Jack Taylor knocked out Gorilla Jones in the fifth round of a schedul ed eight-round bout. In the first preliminary, "Yankee Sullivan was awarded a referee's de cision over "Kid" Bruno, i Ski Champion Visits in Omaha Anders llaugen. three times world's ski champion, was a guest of Judge and Mrs. William F.

A match with Los Angeles prob ably will be played May 30 and a re turn match with Chicago is looked for. . Toledo, O., March 18. (Special) Nothing but hard luck kept the Nourse Oil Co., team of Omi.ha from rolling its way into first place in the American Bowling Congress tournament last night. The team totalled 2888, which is but 28 pins under top place now held by the Koors of Dayton with a 2916 score. The Oils went through their last game with but one miss. They drew five splits, three of which came following good pocket hits. Had the strikes been put over 30 more pins would have been added and first place would have been theirs. Little attention was paid them as they wound up their first game with 922 but, when they rose to the height of a 1005 in the second, eyes were 'turned toward Omaha and the crowd wildly cheered each strike planted in their third game, which ended in a 961 total. R. ciple was the leading wood gatherer for the Oils, his three-game total being 645, which gives him an elegant start on his all event. The Omaha Alleys five was off to a bad two-game start with an 852 and 823. It awakened in the last game and rolled 976. The grand total of 2,650, however, is just outside the money. The Nebraskans have a chance to add further to their laurels today when they tackle the pins in the double: and singles. The scores five men teams: NOURSE OILS COMPANY. 1st 2d 3d W.

Miss Edith Jeffries, of the English team, was the champion leaper. Yankee Ivory Hunter on Mystery Tour of Dixie New York, March 18. Joe Kelly, ivory hunter in chief for the Yankee baseball team today is journeying across Dixie on a mysterious mis sion. Joe left the American Leaguers camp at New Orleans last night under sealed orders, and New York fans were wondering today just what it was all about. Almost anything was expected. Oarsmen Sway to Music. Harvard oarsmen are being taught to sway to and fro in the several parts of their stroke to phonograph music. The idea has worked well except with a few oarsmen who, not having ears for music, have- been hopelessly "out of step." Penny Ante Game in Danger. The Anti-Saloon league's anti gambling measure before the Mary lang legislature, was referred to the finance committee. The bill was attacked on the ground that instead of merely prohibiting betting on races, it would prohibit all games of chance, which includes penny ante, and other "friendly games" at home. Tennis at Bloomfield Bloomfield, Neb., March 18. (Special.) Local tennis enthusiasts are getting ready foij a- busy season, and a meeting has been called to per fect the organization and start get ting the grounds in shape. It is planned to hold the northwest Ne braska tournament here this summer. Babe Ruth s Six Weeks5 Suspension Blowtollugmen Aliicnce of King of Swat Checks Optimism Other vine, Team Ioki Good. New Orleans, Mnh If With lh mighty Babe Kuth and Bob MrutH doomed to spend the first six werlt of the triwn in idleness, all is not well in the Yankee training camp. Manager Miller liuggint realiri he facet his big haiidii-ap right at the jump, but he is toiling diligently to meet the emergency ami at the same time hoping luck will be with him until the day his to naughty boys can come home and aid in the assault on another championship melon, Down here one hears little optimis tic chatter from the league title hold ers. Undoubtedly the team to a man thinks the nag it at good as clinched, but the suspension of Kuth and Meusel has acted at somewhat of s check on loose talk. Probably it i well that the Landis decision had such an effect. Without it the Yanks might have suffered an aggravated attack of overconfidence and the re sult would have been a miserable failure. At matter! now stand, they know the first six weeks of the sea son are going to be tough and they'll fight. The Ilugginj' crew hat an excel lent chance to repeat it admitted. On paper the New Yorkers appear to have pitching strength that could win a flag even if Kuth remained away throughout the season. How ever, one can never tell about pitch ers, but if any manager were given a chance to select a staff from any one club in the league he, no doubt, would put in a bid for Carl Mays, Sam Jones, Joe Bush, Bob Shawkey and Waite Hoyt. The above five won an aggregate of 103 games in the league last sea son. If they can come within a half dozen of that mark this year tl Yankees will not even be pressed. Two of them Bush and Jones should exceed their 1921 figures be cause they will have the backing of a pennant-contending team instead of a tailcndcr. With his infield of Pipp, Ward, Scott and Baker a .'certainty even before training started, Hugglns naturally has devoted most of his time to the outfield ' problem. He himself may not know how he is going to work it until the season is almost at hand, but it appears likely that, pending the return of Ruth and Meusel, Chick Fewster will cavort in left, Elmer Miller in center and Wallie Schang in right. Huggins prefers to keep Schang for backstop duty, but now that Roth has drawn an indefinite suspension, he has no choice. I Six Grinnell Athletes Win Letters in Basket Ball Grinnell, la., March 18. Six Grin nell college basket ball players have been awarded the honor "G" by a vote of the athletic committee. Capt. Willis Macy of Lynnville, la.; F. W. Benz of Council Bluffs and Ray Fearing of Fort Dodge earned their letters in previous seasons.
