With BILLY EVANS'

r=n HANKIE GENARO lost the * I fl y wei Sht title to Fidel La * ' Barba. He would like to win it back. When Genaro saw Elky Clark European champion, for the first

time ant! noticed the most abundant cauliflower ear he sported, Frankie was said to have remarked: “One must be easy to his in order to cultivate a cauliflower ear like that. Clark can’t be such much.” And lit didn't prove much against La Barba, who easily out-

Evans

pointed him in twelve rounds. On top of this, conies the information Clark is very fond of music; that it soothes his nerves while in training. No doubt you are figuring that Clark is one of them there jazz saxophone players. Wrong again, lie's a "wiz” on the accordion. Perhaps the fact that the playing of an accordion is sufficient to ootho Elky Clark's nerves, explains why he is a glutton for punishment. BIG RUBBER MAN rjnOWN in New York they call □ Johnny Risko the “big rubl I ber man." Incidentally, in the same burg, Tex Rickard is planning a heavyweight tournament to select a challenger for Gene Tunney. So far Johnny Risko has been entirely overlooked. However, a big opportunity prerents itself before ‘ Risko. He is hortly to meet Jim Maloney, who already has been selected by Tex to ' lash with Jack Delaney as part of the heavyweight ballyhoo. Risko has a chance to more 'ban make good on the monicker of “rubber man” that the New York writers have hung on him. By trimming Jim Maloney he can bound from the also rails into one of the leading contenders. Risko has surprised Tex before. His decisive defeat, of Paul Berlonhach for a time considerably upset Rickard's plans. In that bout. Berlenbaoh was the rubber man, ns lie rebounded from the floor to his feet from Risko's punches. DUNDEE IS GAME mOE DUNDEE has qualified as a great fighter. His victory LaL_j over Eddie Roberts recently puts him in that class. Roberts, you will remember. Is the young man who knocked Dundee out in a round in a California bout. Dundee always has insisted lie could have weathered the round, but the referee didn’t think so. In their second meeting, Roberts displayed the puneii that temporarily gave Dundee's stock a setback, by dropping Dundee in the fourth round. Ifc might have finished Joe had lie been more experienced. Dundee, after having been knocked out in the first meeting and floored to the fourth round of the second session, lasted the round and came on to glorious victory. The win established Dundee as a > ourageous fighter. It. is a necessary osset on the road to a championhip and Dundee is bound that way.

JOHNSON ‘BENCHED 9 AND LANDIS IS COMMENDED AS RULER

VICIOUS TACTICS DENIED Harvard - Princeton Grid Game Officials Say Battles Fought Cleanly. Bit United Press PRINCETON, N. J„ Jan. 24.—Officials of Princeton-Harvard football games from 1919 to the present time have come to the support of Princeton athletic authorities in denying the charge of W. D. Hubbard, that the Tiger football teams were guilty of unsportsmanship playing and vicious football. F. \V. Murphy of Brown University, W. R. Okcson of Lehigh, and IV. G. Crowell of Swarthmore, in response to an invitation by Dr. Charles IV. Kennedy, chairman of the Princeton board ot' athletic control. challenged Hubbard’s article in Liberty Magazine by agreeing that the games weie hard-fought, but clean. “The games were fairly and cleanly played by both teams,” said Murphy, who umpired the PrincetonHarvard games for the past five years, and acted as field judge once or twice before. “The players conducted themselves in a sportsmanlike manner.” Okeson, who served as field judge and referee in four of the PrincetonHardvard contests, said the games he officiated offered little “to the scandal-monger and male gossiper. They were just good, clean contests between a lot of fine, decent boys, coached by gentlemen sportsmen.” IV. G. Crowell, natoinally known grid official, is said to have made statements similar to those of Murphy and Okeson. HARVARD DEPLORES ATTAC K Bn United Pm* CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Jan. 24 While no official comment was made, there was a general feeling on the Harvard campus today deploring the attack made on Princeton football teams by IVynant Hubbard, former Harvard captain in Liberty magazine. Rob Fisher. former Harvard conch, said he learned of the article with deepest regret. Those of the players mentioned by Hubbard as having been made the victims of foul tactics refuse to discuss the case.

American League Removes j ‘Big Ban,’ Giving Ilf Health as Cause. LONG REIGN IS ENDED Veteran Passes Out Quietly * —Joint Meeting Postponed. By Clark B. Kelsey, United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO. Jan. 24.—After many years os president of the American League of organized baseball—a reign which began with inception of the league—Byron Bancroft Johnson has been forced to relinquish his hold. This action was decided on Sunday, by tho eight club owners of the league &t a meeting called to determine what should bo done with Johnson. Sunday's meeting was a preliminary to a scheduled conference today between American League owners and Judge K. M. Landis, baseball commissioner, at which time there was to have been a "showdown" of authority between Landis and Johnson. However, when Landis learned Johnhon was “out” as president of the American League he postponed his conference indefinitely. Physicians Called in Johnson’s relinquishment of control is based around his physical condition. Doctors told the American League club owners the league president was in ill health and needed a rest. They allowed him to take a leave of absence and appointed Frank Navin, vice president of the league and president of the Detroit club, as acting president. The action of the club presidents of the American League definitely settles the power of Judge Landis, who was drafted from the Federal bench to “purify” baseball after tho 1919 “Black Sox-” scandal. For years Johnson and Landis have squabbled and have differed on major Issues. Recently, however, there was a “get-together” between the two and much handshaking. Indications were that perfect harmonyexisted. However, after Landis made pub lie charges against Tv Cobb and Tris Speaker, charges which involved the two stars in alleged gambling activities, Johnson and Landis again differed. Johnson charged Landis with making public something the American League should have handled. It Mas To Be “Showdown” This resulted in Landis calling the meeting for today, at which 1 e planned to determine who had the control of baseball. Johnson issued several statements against Landis, and the judge had not answered any of them, depending on today's meeting to do that. But the meeting Is off However, tho American league owners Sunday lined tip snlidl.v belitnd tho white-liaired commissioner by repudiating Johnson's criticism of Landis and commended the commissioner “for bis efforts in clearing baseball of any 1 insinuations of dishonesty.” The commissioner said the Johnson matter was the only one discussed Sunday when it was brought to his attention that attorneys for Ty Cobb and Tris Speaker were here planning to confer with him. He said they had made an unnecessarytrip if they planned to appear before the joint meeting of club owners and tho commissioner today. Johnson submitted to the Sunday meeting a formal written statement in which he announced that all the evidence involved in the matter of the Cobb-Speaker investigation had ; been submitted to the commissioner and had been by him published.

Off the Lman BACKBOARD f ACS

mN'TEXDED to spiel a lot today and do everything but mention Indiana. Br-r-r-r! We ! bad two perfectly good press box liekets for that game with Michigan Saturday night, a very nice "date” with Blythe Hendricks, king of basketball broadcasters, when the roads had to freeze and make it almost impossible to drive down. Trains leave Bloomington at night just as kids love castor oil. So the trip was taboo. Blythe went home to his radio and we went to the Armory on Pennsylvania St. to shudder through two hours of awful basketball. It was a knock-down-drng-out affair, and we were just about ready to commit murder when someone announced the score of the Michigan-Indiana game. That .settled it. IVe went home to lied at the early hour of 10 o'clock —and a Saturday night at that. Shortridge couldn't catch the ball and even when they laid their hands on it didn't know what under heaven to do with it. Lebanon had a nice little quintet and didn't have to toil very hard to turn in a victory. Manual had more luck in holding to the ball, but seemed to experience the same trouble hapless pedestrians were encountering on city streets. Probably their shoes were a trifle large. Those Red and White players tripped over nothing at all and appeared to be enjoying a little return to gridiron tactics. Down at Bloomington, Indiana was taking a nice little trimming from the Wolverines and over in Urbana, Illinois wws giving our dope another punch in the eye bydropping ‘he Hawkeyes. “Doc” Meanwell’s Badger five saved us from apoplexy by winning a onepoint victory in the final moments ot play. The Irish were teaching the Little Giants that Irish can be very, very aggressive when aggressiveness is needed. Johnny Nyikos, Louis Conroy. Bueky Dahman and a few other well-known South Benders got tough. And how! It was a sorry bunch of Cavemen that trailed their weary way back to Crawfordsville Saturday night. First, to have Muncie Normal trip a mighty college team like Wabash and then to have the headlines repeat the merry tune that IVabash had been socked in the snoozer again. Not so well, not so well.

Ragged basketball playing was the ■ only noticeable feature of Saturday night's double-header bill at the new Armory, in which Manual and Shortride divided the share of the lime light.' Shortridge, playing against Lebanon, had a bad attack of funibleitis, while Manual was suffering badly from stumbleitis. The Blue and White were unable to make much headway against the flashy Lebanon five, which took a 39-24 victory. Manual had more luck with West .Newton, a team that has not won a game this year, and turned in a win, 32-25. The Shortridge-Lebanon tilt started out like a red hot affair, but Lebanon soon hit its stride and dashed off to a nice lead. The score was 20 14 at the half. The game speeded up in the final period and Lebanon increased its lead gradually. Manual's players started off as if they meant serious business, butsoon dispelled any expectations by. stumbling over everything, includ | ing their own feet. West Newton put up a game battle, but was unable to make any of their numerous shots count. Manual led at the half, 14-12.
