Billy Evans Says —

TRIO OF UPSETS mT’S BEEN just one thing after another in the world of sport during the year of 1926, fast coming to a close. During the football season, a weekend in October and November that

didn’t furnish at least three startling upsets' was the decided exception. Hardly had football made its exit from the sports stage than the fight game took up the series of upsets where the grid athletes let off. During the

Evans.

first week of December, on successive nights, a trio of ring surprises were added to the long list of unusual happenings that have featured the year. Billy Wallace of Cleveland, formerly of the Pacific Coast, provided the opening thrill. He knocked out “Kid” Kaplan, former featherweight champion, in the fifth round. No one, except those familiar with Wallace’s punching power, gave him so much as a chance. During the first four rounds Kaplan swarmed over Wallace and seemed to be winning as he pleased. Then, just as the crowd was sympathizing with Wallace, because he appeared to have a strenuous evening ahead of him, it happened. A punch that didn’t travel more than six inches floored Kaplan for the count of nine. Wallace then proceeded to finish him in a masterly manner, the knockout coming with less than fifteen seconds of the round remaining. DEBATABLE DECISION El he following evening Mickey Walker took down a Chicago 4 decision over Tiger Flowers. The verdict has been much debated ever since. Regardless of the merits of the decision, the fact is, Mickey Walker, 'not Tiger Flowers, is middleweight champion. The surprise feature to this bout centers around the fact that Walker, after losing his welter title and later suffering a knockout, came on to win over the shifty Flowers in a heavier class. A return match between these two probably will be an outdoor affair for next summer In New York. Walker’s manager, Jack Kearns, is too smart to let Walker start for anything but big dough. TRY TO BEAT THIS ONE OOWEVER, to my way of thinking, the biggest upset of the three was turned in by a comparative unknown, in the East at least—Eddie Roberts of Tacoma and other points west. All that Roberts did was knock out Joe Dundee, who ranked mighty close to Champion Pete Latzo before his San Francisco engagement that resulted so disastrously. The strange part of it is that Dundee and his manager went to the coast as a sort of a vacation, not to fight. Dundee had been working so often in the East it was figured a change of scenery would help. He took on Roberts for about onefifth of what ho would have received in the East, and was knocked out without landing so much as a real punch. There is no figuring how costly the vacation will prove. I would say at least SIOO,OOO as a result of the knockout. It means probably that much to Roberts. DUNDEE PECULIAR TYPE "i UNDEE is one of those peDculiar types of fighters who __J are slow to warm up. Every time I have seen him in action he looked anything but impressive for two or three rounds. One who didn't know that he was courageous would gathey from the serious expression he always wears early in his fights that he was decidedly nervous. Scared might be the better word. Perhaps Roberts had been tipped off in advance, for he made a rushing fight and reached the button for a kayo before' Dundee had a chance to show the real ability that he possesses.

JIMMY WINS Lafayette Bantam Gains Shade Over Carsen. Jimmy Sayers, Lafayette bantam, defeated Don Carson, Indianapolis, by a shade in the eight-round main go of the Klks’ Club boxing show Monday night. The card presented was full of pep and action from the start to finish. Carson was in fine shape and ever willing to make a fight, but was outsmarted by the Lafayette lad. In the seml-wlndup Sergeant A1 Baldwin of the Rantoul, 111., flying field defeated Soldier Shannon of Ft. Harrison. The boxers are light heavyweights and went six rounds. The Ft. Harrison soldier gave a nice punching lesson to the aviator for two rounds, but a right, padded with dynamite, in the third slowed down Shannon and turned the tide. Red Rodman, Ft. Wayne, handed a nice lacing to Royal Cox, Indianapolis, in six last rounds. Cox kept swinging into the atmosphere wildly, while Rodman was planting, very deftly and accurately, a straight left into the local boy’s face. Matt Herman, Indianapolis, defeated Larry Dußois, Lafayette, in six rounds. The boys are middleweights. The Gray brothers gave an exhibition. CUE ARTIST WINS TWO Frank llouff Boosts Standing in Three-Cushion Tourney. Frank Houff, Terre Haute cue artist, won two games in the State three-cushion billiard tourney at Harry Cooler’s parlor Monday, defeating Harry Rubens, 80-3 G, in 88 innings, and dropping Harry Black, 50-45, in 92 innings. The victories pushed Houff up a step in the standings. Louie Vogler, who is in first place, will meet Harry Cooler tonight.

BUTLER OPENS HOME SEASON WITH COE WEDNESDAY NIGHT

PURDUE TO PLAY TONIGHT Boilermakers Open Season Against Terre Haute State Normal Netters. Hit t inted Press i LAFAYETTE, Ind., Dec. IEMinus such familiar figures as George Spradling at forward and Carl Sramer at center, Purdue's 1926-27 basketball five wili open its season in Memorial Gymnasium here tonight with the State Normal quintet of Terre Haute as an opponent. Filling the shoes of Spradiing will be Bob Wilson, a well-built performer who played floor guard last year, while Cummins, a sophomore and a former Frankfort High School flash, will appear at center. Veterans of a year's experience will be in the other positions, including Wheeler, a light but crack basket shot, at the other forward, the hard playing Wilcox at floor guard and Kemfner. a member of last year’s squad who win a minor letter at backguard. Lyle and Pontius, a couple of lightweights, most likely will he used at forward, and Captain Wright will re. lieve Kemmer. Other members of Coach Lambert’s reserve possibly will see service sometime during the contest. Coach LarSbert is anticipating a close game from the Normal quintet. Coach .Glasscock has been bringing his men in rapid fashion, and although Wabash defeated his quintet, it should be in fine shape. Last year Normal gave the Boilermakers a most exciting scrap, the Lamberts winning, 29 to 24, in the closing minutes by virtue of a pair of timely baskets. The game tonight is scheduled to start at 7:30. IT MUST BE IMPORTANT Bu United Press LONDON, Dec. 14.—The question of amateur tennis players writing for the press and otherwise realizing gain from their racquet skill today had been referrred to an extraordinary general meeting of the Lawn Tennis Association.

Dec. 14. —Believing fifteen rounds of boxing provide a much better test of a boxer’s ability than does a shorter route, State Senator Hughes, who was instrumental in the passage of the Illinois boxing law, intends to make a fight to have the law amended to permit the longer bouts. “A champion or challenger should he able to show his superiority over the longer route,” the Senator said. ”1 have seen fighters declared winners at tho end of ten rounds that I was certain couldn't have lasted five more. Endurance is a factor in any athletic contest and I intend to present my amendment at the next meeting of the Legislature.”
