Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS

Philadelphia. Pa., June 24. The International melody of fouls in the prize fight racket becomes louder and funnier. An added starter in the low-swinging sweepstakes today is old George Godfrey, the bogus black menace who bounced an illegal left hook off primo Camera’s groin early in the fifth round out at the Phillies ball park before 35,000 assorted suckers Monday night. I huln to add that in this ratbrr inelrzar.t clmitritlon I do not lnriuds either Mr. Jam** Jo*enh Tanner (sJlbouxh retired from the rtne with two miUion dollar*) or HeTr Mix Sshmelin* who ha* boilt an a hank roll of no meater dimension* sinee he came to what rou American* call the state*. Tanner and the Ynunx Herr were in rinride seat* Monday n’rhl. but they were here as non-pay-tnx roests. MUM Perhaps after all It was fitting that Old George should have fouled out as be did. Bv doing so. he lived up to all the ideals and traditions of the modern racket Apparently it 1* against the law to win or lose a heavyweight fight by a knockout any more. a a a I am told there were three or four grarbearded old settlers aronnd the ring Mondr night who can remember seeing a fight between heayyweight* that did not end In a foul. But this 1* nrobably one of those grandfather legends that Inevitably ereen Into the parlor chit chat when the gabby octogenarians get together oyer their snuff boxes. ana THE foul came n the fifth round after me minute and thirteen seconds of what is technically called milling. Your correspondent wasn't in a position to see the low blow land but observers on the side of the ring where the foul occurred agree the punch was undeniably low. a a a Tom Reilly. squat sited Irishman with a semi-elrele fringe of bristling hair, who first gained national attention as the referee of the Tunney-Dempsey fight here several years ago did more than simply indicate the punch was fould. He insisted for some baffling reason that the announcer inform the customers that old George had delivered a deliberate foul. a a a In most cases, the ring official is content to call the blow a foul and let it go at that, unless he happens to be a ring official of the tvpe of Jim Crowley of New York who is reluctant to call them anything. a a a But Reilly apparently wai desirious of being both firm and specific by his obvious implications he thus charged that old George for reasons best known to himself had resorted to this popular and convenient device to get the thing oyer with. a a a AT the time the foul was committed, the bout was about even, as I scored the rounds. Old George took the first two, and dropped the next two. There was not a great deal to choose between the two in the fifth, or that part of it which was fought. a a a Old George was pegging away at the Primo'a expansive waist line as he had been from the start. A few seconds before lbe foul he scored with a left that was an tch or so low and the Primo mumbled a Then the two came together In a rushing attack and Old George rammed another left home in the vicinity of the waist line. This was the finishing foul. a a a The Primo lowered himself to the floor In sectons. rolled over on his back, and istretched hims.’lf out full length. He seemed to be genuinely hurt, though ic had been announced by the local commissioners earlier in the day that the men would wear a newly contrived protector that was foul proof.

‘Playboys’ in Title Tilt

Maxie Rosenbloom

TWO boxers, generally known among ring fans as light hitters, meet in a Buffalo ring Wednesday to determine a wearer for the world’s light heavyweight boxing crown discarded a few months ago by Tommy Loughran. It promises to be an interesting fight, with Jimmy Slattery’s almost perfect boxing form matched against Maxie Rosenbloom’s unorthodox slapstick style that invariably wins decisions for him. They’re both New York boys—Slattery from Buffalo and Rcsenbloom from New York City’s Bronx—and both have been known as notorious “nightclub” trainers.

WHEN Johnny Corriden, Indianapolis pilot, was banished from the field in Kansas City Sunday, he appointed Bill Burwell acting manager. And Bill played second base when Connolly was shifted to short after Warstler’s banishment. Therefore, in addition to taking his regular mound turn, Burwell this season has played right field, in left field, at second, acted as pinch hitter and pinch pilot. o#a Prexy Knapp of the International League has granted permission to three clubs to try the night pastiming, Buffalo.

PITCHER GOMEZ, rookie southpaw with the Yankees, has his own idea about autographing baseballs. When a fan handed him one to autograph he scratched out the name of E. S.

Camera Is Winner on Low Blow Giant Italian Surprises and Appears to Be Real Fighting Man. GODFREY IS FINED Bu United Pres* PHILADELPHIA, June 24. George Godfrey had his license revoked and was fined half bis purse for fouling Primo Camera Monday, It -was announced by the state athletic commission today. Camera was absolved of blame in that connection. Godfrey’s share of the purse was reported as approximately SIO,OOO. BY FRANK GETTY United Press Snorts Editor PHILADELPHIA, June 24.—Primo Camera’s progress up the ladder to heavyweight fame and millions was temporarily interrupted Monday night when the big. goodnatured Italian was droped by a low blow in the Fifth round of his fight with George Godfrey. But Primo showed that he is on his way, and a lot farther along than most of us thought, and today there is no one who saw the fight and its disgraceful ending who will not admit that Camera is a real fighting man. Awkward still, of course, but what a lot of punishment this big boy can take, and keep on taking, and just grin and fight back the harder. Godfrey’s Career Ended Godfrey, the Lieperville Negro, ended his career Monday night as far as the top flight of heavyweights is concerned, for George was given a real chance and failed to make good. For two and a one-half rounds, the Negro, who weighed 250 pounds to Camera’s 262, hit Primo with everything, but the water bucket. And the Italian took it, and kept coming in for more, clumsy as a big St. Bernard puppy, but growing better every minute. Camera won the last half of the third round, took the fourth with some clever jabbing and had Big George slowed to a walk in the first part of the fifth. Primo Looks Good Godfrey, twice warned for low hitting, then fouled out. The referee,-John Reilly, announced immediately that the blow was a deliberate foul. It was a left hook to the groin which stretched Camera in agony on the canvas. We know now that the Black Menace of Lieperville was just another boogy man to frighten little tankers. With Camera, it is another story. He proved himself quite a figure of a man, possibly a coming champion. His splendid body, in perfect condition, assimilated tremendous punishment and he never turned a hair. Seemingly nervous at the start, this overgrown boy who has been pushing over fifth raters from coast to coast, stepped in against Godfrey and fought with the coolness of a veteran.

Campolo Is K. O. Victor Over Italian BOSTON, Mass., June 24.—Vittorio Campolo’s lanking in the heavyweight division remained in doubt today after his sixth bout in this country, in which he knocked out Salvatore Ruggirello of Italy in the third round of t. scheduled ten-round bout at Braves field Monday night. As in his first appearance, Campolo demonstrated that he has a terrific punch, but he apparently hasn’t learned much about fighting from any of the numerous American boxing instructors who have tried to teach him how to use his left, how to feint, duck and perform the other tricks of the game. Campolo ran into one of Ruggirello's round house rights in the first round and was dangerously near trouble, when the bell saved him. A. B.

Tribe and Champs in Last Tilt Indians Will Go North After Today; Monday Battle Lost. Bu Times Special KANSAS CITY. Mo.. June 24. With the series count standing two and two, Johnny Corriden's Indians were to wind up their stay in Kansas City today and tonight the Hoosier pastimers will be on the way to Minneapolis, where they hope for cooler weather. Sickness and distress struck the Tribesmen during the scorching heat spell here and the boys are to be congratulated for making a fair showing minus the services of Howard Freigau. regular third baseman and Paul Wolfe, utility infielder. Catcher Riddle was the Tribe third-sacker again Monday. Bill Burwell pitched good ball, and likewise his opponent. Pea Ridge Day, the latter winning, 4 to 3, Hits were eight for the Indians and seven for the Blues. A muff of an easy fly by Dorman in the first inning paved the way for the first K. C. tally, and the game kept tight throughout, with the Blues winning in the eighth on a walk, a sacrifice and a single. Foy Frazier, new Tribe outfielder obtained on option from the Pirates, reported Monday and saw action in the late innings, relieving Dorman in right field. He looked the part of a real fly chaser during practice and Manager Corriden is eager to see if the youth can solve American Association pitching. He swings left-handed. The Hoosier pilot is hard up for outfield reserve strength. The Indians will be in Minneapolis four days, beginning Wednesday. BASS BEATS GOODMAN PITTSBURGH.
