SOLLY FALLS BEFORE TAYLOR TERRE HAUTE, Ind.. Jan. 6.—Bnd Taylor, Terre Haute, knocked out Solly Epstein of Indianapolis In the first round of their scheduled ten-round, no-decision go here last night. Both boys are bantamweights. Taylor completely outclassed Epstein, who got in only one effective blow, while he took a rain of rights and lefts to the Jaw and head. Epstein lasted just 1 minute and 61 seconds with the Terre Haute boy, and the time had taken a count of nine before he was cornered for the finishing punches, which left him lying helpless against the ropes. Jack Dillon was the third man in the ring. This was Epstein's second time in his career as a boxer to feel the knockout punch, and Bud Taylor is the boxer who administered both knockouts. Taylor stopped the Indianapolis boy about three months ago in the ninth round o 1 a scheduled ten-round bout. Epstein failed to make the required weight for the contest last night. When the boys weighed in at 3 o’clock in the afternoon Epstein weighed pounds, while Taylor weighed 113 pounds. The boxers were to make 116 pounds for the contest and Epstein lost his forfeit. Nearly 200 boxing fans from Indianapolis were in the delegation which came to Terre Haute for the contest. Max Epstein, younger brother of Solly, knocked out Jimmy Watson of Gary in four rounds in the semi-final bout on the Epstein-Taylor card. Epstein was too clever and strong for Watson. Maxie made a big hit with the crowd for he forced the fighting with his opponent and fought hard from the tap of the gong until ha put over the sleep punch. Ray Welsh, Indianapolis lightweight, was outpointed by Jack Earnhardt, Terre Haute, in a six-round preliminary. In the opening “prelim” Harry Dempsey, Indianapolis, was stopped by Billy Dong, Terre Haute, in the first round. YOUNG AND TONEY SIGN.

LIVE GOSSIP OF THE RING

GEORGES MATCHED WITH KID LEWIS LONDON, Jan. C. —Georges Carpentier, light heavyweight champion of the world, ha! signed to meet Ted Kid Lewis here in March and will not go to America this spring. Jack McAuliffe, former lightweight champion, has the French boxer's word that he will meet Lewis, who has long sought a match, in London, about March 15, for a £I,OOO side bet and a purse. Lewis, who once won the world's welterweight title from Jack Britton, only to lose it back to the American fighter, easily captured two British championships since starting his campaign here some months ago. lie has grown heavier, too, and is considered a good match for Carpentier by English critics. MADDEN MAY BOX FULTON. NEW YORK, Jan. 6.—Bartley Madden, west side heavyweight, is now being considered as a prospective opponent for Fred Fulton, Minnesota heavyweight, who is seeking to re-establish himself as a logical rival for Champion Jack Dempsey. Promoter Tex Rickard has been negotiating for a bout for Fulton at Madison Square Garden, Jan. 13, but to uuie nas been unable to secure a rival for the Minnesota boxer. Bob Roper, Chicago heavyweight, was regarded as a likely opponent for Fulton, but his financial demands caused the promoter to discard his plans in this direction. Rickard is now dickering with Madden for a tenround bout. Battling Levinsky, American light heavyweight champion, and Gene Tunuey, Greenwich Village boxer, are scheduled for ten rounds in the near future. The attraction at the Garden on Jan. 20 probably will be a return meeting between Joe Lynch, former world's bantamweight champion, and Midget Smith. It is reported this match is practically closed for fifteen rounds. Smith has two ring engagements scheduled previous to this bout. He is booked for battles in Philadelphia on Jan. 9 and 14. Under the State athletic commission's rule prohibiting boxers from participating in local bouts within eight days after a previous ring engagement, a rearrangement of the Quaker City dates for Smith will be necessary if he ig to box Lynch on Jan. 20. Otherwise, the date of the proposed Lynch contest will have to be deferred. SCHOBER SEEKS MAT GO. Billy Schober, well known Indianapolis afbiete, wants to meet Ja-’k Reynolds, whose recent victory over Kid Ross, the

Notre Dame University wrestling instructor, and other well known mat artists, has won him fame. Schober also defeated Ross two best falls in three on Dec. 13, at Freeport, 111. It has long been said that wrestling is a game in which there is so much to learn that a man never Is at his best until he Is at least 30 years old. Schober is 35 years old and is In good physical condition. With the recent revival of the mat game in Indianapolis Schober is again planning to appear in a wrestling bout in his home city and he wants to meet Jack Reynolds or any other wrestler near his weight. BIG JAM THREATENED. PORTLAND, Ore., Jan. 6.—The biggest bargain ever offered local boxing fans—the chance to see a bitter grudge fight with four preliminary bouts thrown in, all for nothing but the 14 cents carfare or the price of a taxi—is drawing like a mustard plaster. There were nearly 5,000 men and women in the Milwaukee arena—a converted ear barn —Monday afternoon when Bill Tate slid on his ear in the first round and copped the colored boxing title from Harry Wills. The ending had such an unhappy effect on the spectators that the Milwaukee commission believed boxing had been killed, Hence it was arranged the fighters should fight again tonight. There were nearly 5,000 men and women present Monday, and they were told that they could get their old seats back for nothing. But already more than 8,000

Big Salaries Turn Players From Idea of Sport to Money Jennings Recalls Old Days and Says Money Madness Baseball Menace. NEW YORK, Jan. 6.—lt is Hit natural for the old-time ball player to envy the luxury the modern athlete enjoys. Tho veteran can be excused, too, for speaking of “the good old days when there was real baseball.” These things must be, but the old-timer seldom converts any modern fan to his belief, however respectful the attention he gets. But when a man of the caliber of Hughie Jennings speaks, his views mean something. Hughie doesn’t contend that baseball is going to the dogs—doesn’t admit that it is now any better than it was in the ’9os; doesn’t contend that it is any worse. But he does insist that the quick gain through the large salaries and the high state of commercialization the whole game has reached have turned the thoughts of ball players away from the playing field and toward the financial side of the sport. “What player of this day and time would vou find practicing without salary and without orders to do so two weeks

after the world’s series was over?” asked Hughie. “Well, that Is exactly what John McGraw, Willie Keeler, Kid Gleason and I did in the fall of 1894. just after Johnny Ward's New York Giants, run-ners-up in the league race, had beaten us four straight games in the Temple Cup series. “I am not holding my teammates and myself up as martyrs or anything of the sort. I merely cite this instance to provfe the actual love of the game every man on that Oriole team had. Our gain came in the perfection of plays that won two more championships and two Temple Cup series for us. “Lack of those same p ays cost us the

series against the Giants, and McGraw decided we must lose no time in perfecting them. So, without orders from Hanlon or anybody else and for pure love of the game—of Victory—we went out and plugged. “I do not say that this desire to win has been eilmiated from baseball—far from It. If it ever were the sport would be hopelessly lost—would fall immediately into the bands of gamblers. The Inborn desire to excel, regardless of whether one is being paid for it or not, is one of the greatest safeguards of the honesty of the pastime. “Even those misguided players of Kid Gleason's must have felt that spirit

rising in their breasts even when they had sold their team out. To have to submerge that healthy desire for filthy gamblers’ money must have hurt the souls of even the blackest of the Black Sox. “There is not a bit of doubt that this money madness has dimmed the players’ passion for victory, but I am thankful that it never can he altogether eliminated.” State Normal Goes Down VINCENNES, Ind., Jan. 6.—The Vincennes "Y” basket-ball team won a fast game from the Indiana State Normal five here last night, 34 to 21.
