CLARK BATTERS CARNERA

Big Negro Has Primo Nearly Out Giant Italian Rallies in Sixth to Score Unexpected K. 0. BY T. .T. O'CONNELL Inlted Pre* Staff Correspondent PHILADELPHIA, March 4. Primo Camera's circus troupe today looked at the world through rosecolored glasses. The Ambling Alp had won the eighth start of his American tour and removed ail doubt as to his courage and ability to take punishment. Primo perused newspaper accounts of his six-round knockout over Are Clark, Philadelphia Negro. with one eye, and grinned widely as a physician predicted the other rye, swollen to the size of a grapefruit, would heal quickly. The bon* with Clark, a 6-foot--7 i-lnch. ' : 1 -pound Philadelphia Negro, provided the vast Camera With the severest test of his career. Camera took a terrible beating and was hardly able to move around when he caught; the rapidly tiring Clark Vith a vicious left hook to the body and a right to Uie chin which ended the bout in the sixth round. Clark gave Primo a boxing lesson and except for two knockdowns in the fourth had all the better of the fighting until the knockout. The bell saved him from a knockout in the fourth, but he came out fresh lor the fifth and partially blinded Camera with a hard looping right which closed the Italian’s left eye When the sixth round started Camera stagged about with blood streaming down his face. The referee appeared ready to heed cries to step the fight. Even the Camera seconds were debating the advisability of throwing in the towel. Primo sensed the situation and took matters in his own hands, ending the ringside arguments. He shook his massive head, snorted .ike an angry bull and rushed. Clark had no chance to sidesttp and two mighty blows almost glued him to the canvas.

Cooke at St. Paul last season convinced New York Yankee owners that there was a valuable piece of ivory. They bought him, figuring that any man who could hit that way would look good in the uniform formerly worn in left field by Bob Meusel. Training camp news seems to bear out their contention.

Belligerent Miller Star of Years Ago Seeks Sheriff Job Political Announcement Recalls Memories of Dave Altizer, Holder of A. A. Record for Accepted Chances.

Illinois, bordered on the west by the mile-wide Mississippi and midway between Quincy and St. Louis, recently was informed that Dave Altizer had announced his candidacy for sheriff. To some the announcement was just another political advertisement, but in the minds of many it revived memories of an American Association baseball : star, the homeliest and skinniest man in that AAA circuit. There was a day when Altizer was as colorful as Babe Ruth and as belligerent as Art Shires. American Association records still cairy the name of Altizer, a player of the old school, who rates among the best in the national pastime. Dave played shortstop for Minneapolis in 1914 and gobbled 1,023 chances, which remains a record today. He also reigned as a base thief, stealing sixty-five times in 1910 and sixty-eight times two yaars later. He topped A. A. run scoring columns four times. At that, Dave was a bust in the majors. In his prime Altizer furnished the papers with columns of colorful

And the times that he came out second best were few. Stealing third base, made obsolete in these days of the lively ball, used to be a popular pastime In Altizer’s day. Once he rode into third, spikes flashing wickedly in the sun. Harry Clark, just as rough and every bit as ready, stood in the wav to take the throw. There was a cloud of dust—then flying fists filled the air. Believing Dave had deliberately tried to cut him down, Clark let him have it on his bony jaw. Altizer was knocked to the ground and for good measure Clark leaned over to paste him again. Dave was equal to the occasion, however, and lashed out with both spiked feet, gashing Clark's face.
