PORTING NE

PHY STOPPED IN 40 SECONDS

01) 0 S 0UTB0XED BY DALY

Nw York. May 26. Knockout Brown hit Tommy Murphy five terrific wallops lant night within the space of forty seconds and the Pride of Harlem was lifted up and carried to his corner knocked out. The finish was so fast and exciting that the majority of the members wondered what landed Murphy in the knockout division. The blow that brought the battle to such an abrupt and sensational finish was a l't swing that caught Murphy ""-flush on the jaw. Murphy was downed twice. Twenty seconds after the boys shook hands Brown rushed Tommy over to the lat-

ters corner and with a well directed

right slammed Tommy in the stomach

causing him to drop his guard, leaving an opening for two hard lefts to the chin that sent Murphy to the floor. He staggered to his fiet. only to meet a right to the fact and a left to the jaw hat ended the bout. The boys did not weigh in at 123 at 6 o'clock. Murphy ducked out of this part of the agreement and entered the ring around 135. Brown tipped the beam at 132 pounds. Terry McGovern years ago knocked Murphy out in the same manner that Brown turned the trick last night.

ternatlonal race. ' ' Arthur Grenler came down from Chi-, cago last week to drive the Amplex car. which was wrecked Wednesday and resulted in the injury of Joseph Horan, driver, and Emmet Ward, mechanlcian. This particular .car has, come to be known as "the hoodoo" by other drivers, and it was thought no one would volunteer to try to face Its! bad record and make another trial. ; Grenier appeared at the course yester-i day morning. His fellow speedsters greeted him warmly. Harry Kndicott j ran out of his camp to greet the game Chicagoan. "Hello, Art," called Endicott, "what car are you going to drive?" "Me for the hoodoo car," Grenier answered. TIm wrecked Amolex is now in the

shop undergoing repairs, and Grenier, expects to have it in shape for the test today. 1 "I'm going to -drive the Amplex to average two minutes for the course, and it will be in the money for that speed," said Grenier. "The fellows who try to drive faster than two minutes

for that long grind won t last. The other drivers did not seem to be willing to agree with Grenier. most of them believing that the winner will have to go faster than an average of seventy-five miles an hour to beat out the other fellows. "Wild Bob" Burman, who is to be crowned speed king of the world because of his records made on the Florida beach, will go after the world's track record at the Speedway Monday morning at 9 o'clock, and all the gate money taken in will be given to the hospitals!. It was part of the speedway program to have Burman make the trials an hour before the start of the &00 mile international race on Memorial day. but because of objections by manufacturers entering cars in the big event the Burman part of the program was eliminated for that day.

The peerless fence buster. Ping Bodie, won another game of ball for the White Sox. With a long clout in the eighth Inning, he tied the score in the final game of the series with the New York Highlanders yesterday afternoon. In the tenth round he came to bat again with a man on second and hit the ball to the right field wall, winning the game. The final score was 3 to 2 and it was one of the liveliest battles seen at. Comiskey park this year. Somewhere in tht grass along the right field ferce the ball still is lying unless the grountikeeper found it. None of the New Yorkers went after it, for they knew; the game was lost 'when they heard the smack of the bat. Wolter, playing tbat garden, took one fleet. Ing glance as the ball whizzed far over his head, then ran for the bus. Harry Lord trotted home from second base and Pftig ran out and jumped on first, then dashed for the clubhouse. It might have been a three bagger if a three bagger would have done any good. But when Lord got home the game was won and the Sox had climbed one notch higher in the pennant race, holding third position now.

TIMES' ADVERTISING COUNTS.

Boston. Mass., May 26. Of all true words of tongue or pen the truest are

these: "And the last shall be first." That does not rhyme, but it fits the facts and contains more truth than poetry, for the Cubs encountered their first postponed game In the east on the last day of their eastern schedule. The rain, which kept up intermittently from the fifth inning of Wednesday's game until the Cubs blew this town last night, was on the job most persistently Just before time for calling the final contest of the series here. Consequently it had to be postponed, and July 17 was the date fixed by the home management for playing it off. It will then become the second halJ,of a double header.

j and Pennsylvania to fight it out for

second place with Michigan anj Princeton trailing In the order named. At least four records should go by the board if favorable weather condl-

' tions prevail and if the contestants I run to form. These events are the half I'mile, the mile, the two mile and the pole vault. I

MICHIGAN HELD TO I ONE HIT, LOSES, 5-0 Syracuse, N. Y., May 26. Ensign S. Cottrell, premier pitcher of the eastern colleges, yesterday defeated the Michigan nine before a big crowd, 5 to 0. The Syracuse university team aided Cottrell more or less, but the big fellow was the whole show, holding Michigan to one hit. Representatives of the Pirates and Naps, both of whom are after Cottrell, saw the game. The

same teams play today. I
