PRIZE FIGHT RAIDED; 246 FLEE; FOUR ARRESTED

The unheralded and unwelcome entrance of Detectives Carodie and Burns Into a pool room at 878 Orleans street last night broke up a prize fight. The contestants were in the center of a roped arena and were fighting with

bare knuckles. Four men were arrested and, if the detectives' count is correct, 246 others made hasty and undignified exits. Those arrested were George Cepatas, 22 years old, 871 La Salle avenue, one of the contestants; James Dorgan, 15 years old, 937 Orleans street, a spectator; Michael Cunningham, 351 Institute place, the referee, and James Burns, 901 Franklin street, the proprietor of the pool room. The fight evidently had gone a number of rounds when the detectives entered. Cepatas had a black eye and showed other marks of punishment. His opponent escaped In the excitement.

the drivers signed it. The signatures of

three manufacturers interested In the

race are yet to be obtained. The petition must be unanimous in order to admit of a post entry, and some of the

manufacturers may balk on his entry

at this late day.

Louis Chevrolet had been assigned as

a relief driver for the Bulcks, but he

decided he wanted to -take another

whirl as a direct entry. The qualifying

Lafayette, Ind., May 27. Purdue upset the dope bucket yesterday by administering to Illinois its first defeat of the season in a hotly contested game, the score of which was 5 to 3. It was the mini's thirteenth conference game and it proved correspondingly unlucky. Morrow pitched in superb form and had the visitors at his mercy. Several of the hits were of the scratch variety and came after the Boilermakers had opportunities to retire the side. Purdue played erratic ball at first, but grew steadier as the game progressed and proceeded to rap Kemman hard at critical tages. 'WHITE HOPE' PALZER ' IS STAR OF TOURNEY

BOXING NEWS. Chicago fistic fans got their first glimpse of Sam Langford, who will meet Tony Caponl at Kenosha Monday night when the "Boston Tar Baby" sparred three rounds at O'Connell's gymnasium yesterday. Several hundred persons were refused admission to the gymnasium, while at least 500 stood in front of the building to get a lopk at the fighter as he passed In and outA Phil Schlossberg, the navy champion, who will meet Tim O'Neil, the South Chicago light heavyweight, in a ten

round bout at Hammond Wednesday

night, did his first training yesterday

at the Indiana town, when he boxed six fast rounds with Cleve Hawkins.

Charley Dryden says that Ping Bodle of the White Sox is as fresh as a crate of new cucumbers. In a recent game Ping became peeved at a decision of Umpire Bill Dineen, and started to do a bush league jig. Leave it to Bill to crab that kind of a stunt. He grabbed Ping and shook him like Llzzlv shakes a dust cloth.

New York. May 21.'- Al Falser was the star of Tom O'Rourke's elimination "white hope" tourney at the National Sporting club last night. The ponderous fighter made good in the two bouts he entered in. In his first engagement he earned the award over Joe Rogers, the herculean wrestler. Then Palzer tackled Sailor White and gained the verdict In four rounds. Palzer was indeed fortunate to stack up against White when he did, for White was tired when Palzer squared off with him. White had disposed of three aspiring heavyweights in less than tfjree rounds. He stopped George Condre and Bob Young In a round each and knocked out Al Benedict, Billy Madden's exploded champion, also in one round.

34 CARS GO 75 MILES

AN HOUR TO QUALIFY FOR BIG JTO DERBY

For Eligibility to 600-Mile Contest at Indianapolis.

Indianapolis, Ind., May 27. The

qualification tests of cars to participate in the 500-mile race at the speedway

next Tuesday were made yesterday

under the supervision of officials of th

American Auto association. Thirty

four cars qualified, leaving ten that

will make the trials Monday. The tw Falcars are out permanently. The trials were to have begun at

o'clock, but the late arrival of th

timing apparatus caused a delay until

after 10 o'clock. Interest In the coming race was apparent from the fact that fully 5.000 people visited the big course to witness the trials. I Two cars, the Simplex, to be driven by Ralph DePalma, and a McFarlan were prevented by accidents from making the trial. DePalma's car suffered the loss of a cylinder in a practice spin

yesteraay. rne Mctarian stripped a cam gear. Both cars will be given trials Monday. The drivers making the trials were not apprised of the time or the distance to be covered to qualify. The officials sent the machines around the track, and each was required to attain a speed of not less than seventy-five miles an hour at certain points in the course. Only one lap of the course was covered by each machine. Secrecy marked the actions of all the oflicials. the only announcement made being as to whether the cars had qualified or had failed. It is known that several had narrow escapes on the test. The first car eliminated was a Jackson, driven by Fred Ellis, but two Jacksons that followed made the requited marks. They were driven by Harry Cobe and Jack Tower. Ellis is to have another trial. Lewis Strang was the first driver called to the wire. He took his Case car over successfully, and was followed by two other Case cars, driven by Will Jones and Joe Jagersberger. Other cars that qualified were: Stutz, Gil Anderson, driver; Interstate, Harry Endicott; National, John Altken; Flat.
