27. At the end of the first half Gary secured a lead of three points which she had earned by hard and consistent work. The work of the' two teams was about a parallel as far as team work and basket throwing was concerned, and if the histle for the end had sounded a few seconds sooner than it did, or a few seconds later, the game is just as likely to have been won by Harvey. At the end of the second half the score stood IB to 13 in favor of Gary.

MURPHY WHIPS
FRANKIE MADDEN New York, Jan. 9. Tommy Murphy
had Frankie Madden so tied up with arms for ten rounds at the National
Athletic club last night that Frankie
could not eve nstart his famous punch.
It was a bitter disappointment as a fight. Madden forced the fighting all the way, but Murphy, seeing that one of Madden's eyes was slightly bruised during training, hammered away at it and In the last round it was closed tight and Madden was seeing only half of what was going on. In the last round Madden, almost helpless, ran blindly into a terrific right hander that shook him clear to the heels. Murphy was making the best of the opportunity when the bell rang. .

which they played the game. Every member on either team played basketball from start to finish. The second game between the Methodist A. C. of Whiting and the high school second team resulted in another victory for Hammond, the score being 24 to 13. Although the contest was somewhat slower than the first game, nevertheless it was a good game throughout. Hammond had the game In its grasp all the time, as the score

According to Chance's friends the owner of the three times
champions went back on his word when it came time at the end of the season to remember his players with an extra reward which he had empowered Manager Chance to promise them1 in case they won the National league pennant. When Manager Chance divided up tlje money received for whipping the Tigers he told his players that as soon as Murphy received from the national commission his certified check of $10,000, which had to be posted to guarantee playing the world's series to
a finish, he would add a nice present for each one of the players who helped
to win the National league flag.
But after the certified check was returned by the commission Murphy kept mum on the subject of reward
ing his men for bringing him the third consecutive National league pennant
and the second straight world's flag.

ROLLER MAY BE A COMER. Seattle. Wash., Jan. 9. Will Dr. B.
F. Roller, the Seattle wrestler, "make
good" as a fighter? This is the ques
tion that is being asked and variously answered since Roller has been match-
fed to fight Al Kaufman before the
Jeffries club in Los Angeles toward
the end of this month.
James J. Corbett, Bob Fitzsimmons
and other pugilistic stars who ' have
boxed with Rroller have expressed fa
vorable opinions of his prowess and predict a bright future for him in the
ring, ther competent judges do not
heitate to declare that the Seattle phy
sician-athlete, while a marvel of physi
cal development, will nevfer set the
world afire as a pugilist. To prove
their case they point to the tried-and-
true saying that a good wrestler never makes a good fighter. Perhaps, how
ever, the fact that Roller has never developed Into a champion mat artist
may help him to defy the old rule.
Dr. Roller Is In the prime of vigor
ous young manhood. Born In Illinois
and edwated at the medical school of
the University of Pennsylvania, he
came west after his graduation and hung out his shingle in Seattle. His marvelous physique, coupled with his
natural love for athletic sports, led
him to take part in amateur wrestling
matches. In those amateur bouts he
was Invariably successful. Later he engaged in professional matches with a number of prominent wrestlers, among them Champion Frank Gotch. In these contests he made a good showing and gave promise of developing in time Into a first-class wrestler. Recently he has devoted his entire time to learning the fine points of the boxing game. As a sparring partner he has had "Denver Ed" Martin, the big negro fighter who has fought Jack Johnson and other big fellows and has learned by experience every angle of the boxing game. If Roller masters the science of the game and posses the requisite courage it is believed he may develop into a good fighter. He possesses all of the physical qualifications for a heavyweight champion. He strips at upwards of 200 pounds, is over feet tall and possesses a wonderfully long reach. He has a hard punch and for a novice at the game he is said to be exceedingly shifty on his feet. His muscles are softer than it should be, but this is a defect easily remedied.
