JIM CORBETT made up his mind he held the key to the defeat of John L. Sullivan long before he challenged the Boston Strong Boy, and the California ''dude” was fortunate, in a way, when a chance came his way that tipped off the champion's poor physical condition after a long reign among the world’s heavyweights. James J. proved he was smart —the Gene Tunney of his era —when opportunity to learn presented itself and he seized it. In June of 1891, Sullivan stopped in San Francisco while touring. He had been idle from the prize ring since 1899. He spent, much time in vaudeville and roistering around and his waistline w'as "out of control" and his muscles soft. The big fellow was a playboy, more or less, and evidently thought there was no more opponents worthy of his vaunted power. Somebody suggested an exhibition of sparring for the entertainment of the “dandies” of the city and young Corbett was pushed forward to box with John L. The champ agreed to the arrangements and a sort of “society” event was the result, the champion insisting they wear evening clothes as they boxed four rounds. Corbett had leaped into fame on May 21, 1891, when he fought a sixty-one-round draww with Peter Jackson, West Indian Negro, but even that performance wasn't enough to convince the sports of the day that he belonged in Sullivan's class. It was the next month, on June 26, that the exhibition with John L. took place. The four-round bout, however, told Corbett and William A. Brady } his manager, the whole story. James J. was quick to perceive that he was twice as fast as the doughty champion. He saw, too, that he could keep out of the way of those crushing punches. In four rounds Sullivan hardly touched Corbett. Brady saw, and agreed with Jim that Sullivan could be beaten if allowed to tire himself out punching at the air. Fourteen months later, Sept. 7. 1892, Corbett was the new king of the world's heavyweights. Purse was $25,000 and side bet SIO,OOO. John L. took the count in the twenty-first round. a a a a a a BERT HOMER, manager of Tracy Cox, the Indianapolis junior welterweight, says he wants local promoters to match his tnumper against a nationally-known glove tosser on the order of Billy Petrolle and Tony Canzoneri. Tracy’s pilot said he has decided the home town offers better profits than many other cities, especially Detroit, where, according to Rumer, the recent Cox-Joe Marcus scrap drew only S6OO. The million and a half population up there doesn't mean anything, opines Bert. Rumer says there are only a few spots in the country still turning out the customers at fistic show's and that the Hoosier capital is one of the number in the small select list. Tracy’s guide mentioned Canzoneri and Petrolle among others as chaps who would pack ’em in here with Cox. They are high-priced talent, however. Canzoneri is lightweight champion of the world, but steps up occasionally into the welter class and knocks ’em over. Petrolle is in the welter division now and doubtless would ask a lower price for appearance than Canzoneri. The manager of Joey Marcus, who is Bunny Buntach of Braddock, Pa., is keeping himself busy writing challenges for a match in Indianapolis with Cox. He says “his boy” forced Tracy to step on the gas in the late rounds at Detroit to cop the decision by a slender margin. tt a tt a a a New York sports writers have been writing of Jim Crowley since 1924, when he was one of the Four Horsemen of Notre Dame. They will meet him personally, shortly, when Fordham university throw's a special dinner in honor of its new grid coach. a a a a a a Fidel La Barba, who “retired” following the upset defeat at the hands of Seaman Watson, the British bartender, wall meet Mose Butch in Pittsburgh on Monday. With a chance to pick up some extra “scratch,” Fidel forgot to remember the retirement announcement. a a a a a a One of the principals in a Golden Gloves amateur bout at Tomlinson hall, Thursday night, stepped out of a barber profession to try his luck at fisticuffs. He lost. No points are awarded for conversation. a a a a a a DAZZY VANCE reached the conclusion he was an institution in Brooklyn only to find himself pushed out w'est to St. Louis in an ordinary player swap that included a couple of substitutes, when Uncle Robby lost out as Dodger pilot, Vance lost his front office prop. Dazzy grew accustomed to picking his ow'n spots under the easy-going Robby, but Pilot Max Carey proved a different hombro. a a a a a a REDS AND DODGERS MAY LOSE EXTRA ‘SUGAR’ IF the Sunday baseball bill goes over in Pennsylvania. Cincinnati and Brooklyn will lose several Sabbath dates at home. Both are good Sunday tow'ns, too. Pirates and Phillies, playing no Sunday ball, have been the means of giving Cirny and Flatbush an extra bulge on the choice day of the week heretofore. In baseball, the home club gets far the better of the gate receipts. Sabbath ball in the Keystone state would cut off four or five Sunday games in Redland and Brooklyn, which would amount to a lot of money that Reds and Dodgers wouldn't receive.

Schaaf Recovering in Hospital From K. O.

Blond Ernie Still Semi-Conscious After Being Hammered Out in Thirteenth Round by Giant Primo Camera; 21,000 Fans 800 Result. BY JACK CUDDY United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Feb. 11.—Primo Camera appeared today as the first Italian menace to the world heavyweight championship. He attained this prominence Friday night when his wagon tongue of a left arm blasted the heavyweight aspirations of biond Ernie Schaaf of Boston, thus giving Camera the right to a title bout with Champion Jack Sharkey in June. In the thirteenth round of their scheduled fifteen-rounder at Madison Square Garden, the Italian giant knocked Schaaf into a coma w'hich sent him to Polyclinic hospital. As the battered Bostonian stepped in, Camera stopped him with a long left jab to the face. It didn’t appear hard enough for a knockout blow, but his fair-haired opponent crumpled to his hands and knees, shook convulsively and stretched out limply with his bruised face on the canvas.

Nearly 21,000 fans, the fortunate 1 ones w'ho got in of the thousands | that clamored for admittance, roared disapproval as Referee Billy Cavanaugh tolled off the count. Sharkey, who unexpectedly had been in Ernie’s corner as a second, leaped through the ropes and dragged his limp charge to a stool w'here he and the commission's physician, Dr. William H. Walker, worked feverishly to revive him. Condition Is Serious The crowd jeered as four policemen carried the unconscious Schaaf to his dressing room. Another half hour of first aid failed to bring him around and he was carried to Polyclinic hospital across the street. Last rites were administered there by a Catholic priest. But several hours later Dr. J. A. Jenney, chief resident physician, announced that Schaaf apparently was “out of danger” but still semiconscious from a serious brain concussion. X-ray plates revealed his skull was not fractured. He will remain in the hospital for several days. Physicians at the ringside believed the final left jab was not the sole cause of the knockout and concussion. Schaaf had taken a severe battering to the head during the preceding twelve rounds, of which he won only the third. Slow, Drab Bout Outweighed 264 1 2 pounds to 207 tfc, and wdth his well-moulded 6-foot 2-inch figure dwrafed by Camera’s 6 feet 6 ! 2 inches, Schaaf was at a physical disadvantage which he was not able to overcome. He made the mistake of trying to keep inside Camera’s derrickbeam arms. As he walked in, Carnera jolted him again and again with pushing left jabs. Schaaf’s poor showing, coupled with the unfavorable publicity the bout had received, caused the prolonged outburst of booing when the knockout came. In addition, it had been a slow, drab exhibition.

/~VNE of the reasons for Butler's improved showing in recent court tussles has been the sharpshooting of Bert Davis, flashy little forward and ex-Tech star. Davis has found the basket range after an early slump and dropped in five buckets against Washington U. last Wednesday. He’ll be a starter at forward tonight when the Bulldogs tangle with Grinnell in a Missouri Valley conference battle at Fairview field house.

Schaaf Is First Heavy in History Knocked Out by Left Jab to Chin

BY JOE WILLIAMS New York World-Telerram Sports F.ditor NEW YORK. Feb. 11.—There may be a lot of people around town today asking "What did you think o fthe fight Friday night?” Tory will be referring, of course, to the fight between FTimo Camera and Ernie Schaaf at Madison'Square Garden, which ended in the thirtenth round. a a a Well, I am one of those who saw it. and I don't know just what to say. But I will say this, without fear of contradiction <oke, senator?*, that until Monday night I had never seen a heavyweight knocked out by a left jab. a a a IT so happens that Schaaf was knocked out by a left jab, and not a particularly vicious left jab. to the chin. Now I'm not saying that you can not be knocked out by a left jab. I am only saying I never saw a heavyweight—and come to think of it, anybody else.' knocked out by a left jab. When this occurred it seemed rather strange to me and so I turned to an elderly gentleman whe has been around the racket a long time, and said: “What do you think?' This elderly gentleman answered: “It didn't l<?ok so good but I think it was all right at that. I think Schaaf was ready to go and that if he had just falle ndown he wouldn’t have been able to get up. I mean to say he had taken so much punishment that he was totally exhausted:’ a a a NOW that may be the story of Friday night’s fight. I'm not saying it is or it isn't. Certainly up to the time that Schaaf became the first heavyweight in history to be knocked out by a left jab he was taking plenty and winning nothing. In fact. I hadn't given him a round, so it wasn’t important whether he was knocked out or just outpoited. He was a five-star cinch to lose the decision, no matter what.
