HARRY LEWIS

AGAIN ON STAND London, Feb. 27. The hearing of the

suit of Harry Lewis, the Philadelphia welterweight prize fighter, against a taxicab company for Injuries received by him In a collision on Ludgate circus in January, 1912, was continued today. Lewis, who waa again a witness, said he had forfeited $750 through his inability to meet Dick Burke in March following the accident, although he admitted that he knocked out Seaman Brown on April 29 of the same year. Manager Harris said that Lewis waa nothing like the man he used to be before the collision. This was corroborated by Mr. Douglas, a member of the committee of the National Sporting

club, who told of the ' bout, in which Lewis was beaten by -"Dixie Kid" last January. When Matheaon beat Lewis after the accident Mr. Douglas said he had advised Lewis to let up In his boxing for a while, as his vitality had, been very much lowered. The case waa adjourned until tomorrow.-

MODERATE NEW

BOXING BILL Madison, Wis., Feb. 27. The fight was started today over the proposed

boxing law, under which limited box

ing bouts would be permitted. The

threatened opposition of the ministers

of the state has caused the boxing advocates to propose of their own accord some strict changes to the original bill, such as making perjury in connection with securing permits for fights punishable the same as in the counts, and to make the bond of promoters $10,000, all of which would be forfeited to the state in case of violation of the provisions of the law. The expenses of the commissioners would be limited to $3,000 a year.

EVANS SEE BUT tITTLE CHANGE IH GOLF CLUBS Expert Says Freakish Kind Are Only Slight Variation From the Standard Used for Years.

GREEK OLYMPIC WINNER DIES

By Ckarlm "Chick" Evans. Hitherto I hvae confined myself almost entirely to the clubs In my own bag. Of them I felt that I would speak with authority of practical experience; of the others I know only by observation. Occasionally I try a new putter or driver and in many cases I consider them excellent, but almost Invariably I ciime back to my tried and true weapon. " Today I present a more varied list.

I shall begin with the long driving Irons and place them in the order of

distance that I think can be obtained from them. Driving Irons Maybe I am wrong, but I always think of these as deep and straight-faced Irons that require the timliest sort of wrist snap to get the ball away and up. I have never played one. Cleek Of course, there are some straight-faced cleeks and push clubs. Duncan has a club that Is well lofted, with the shank eliminated. I suppose

that driving Iron blades are laid back a little, but the cleek, to my mind. Is a narrow, slightly lofted, one. Driving Mashie This club is deeperfaced than the driving iron and has

more loft than, the cleek or driving iron and not so much as the midKpn. It is very effective out of long grass and oft the tee, but I have never tjsed one. The Midlron-r-I have already explained the use to which I put this club.

The Jigger It Is between the midiron and the mashie. The Mashle-Nlblick Its upper edge is roundedibut its lower 4s straight, resembling that of a mashie. The Niblick k moBt serviceable club for the inaccurate player. These clubs, , with . putter, brasaie, driver andj spoon, cover about the whole rane of golf clubs; all the freakish and patented clubs are variations of these forms. I have practiced with somei of the putters and have found them excellent.
