Oil is SHADED BY JOE BISHOP
Three High Class Bouts Are Staged by the Hammond Moose-Tague a Little Out
class on Short Route by
Fighter.
Thre excellent boxing bouts were riven before the Moose In Hammond last evening and a rather slender attendance testified to the lack of adverUsTn preceding the exhibition. In tha main bout Joe Bishop of Whiting ahaded Tommy Tascue of Hammond in ten rounds. The lightweights rut up a eplendld scrap, and Bishop resorting to all the tricks and strategy of the ring demonstrated that he Is a topnotcher for cleverness. The shifty little Whiting battler was here, there and alt over the ring. Tague. improving with each fight, wa as fresh in th tenth as In the first and it was the consensus of opinion that in twenty rounds he woul'"' --. t Bishop and
prooabTy put 'cer away. Joe
would have
x l . u
, , ..t of training- to go
the twenty 'Vo'irKf route with Tague. if the way "in which the Oil City fighter overed up bis stomach la?t tiieht is a criterion. A belt In mid-sertion raised' a grunt out of Joe every time. Ask 'Peanuts" BchreJbel, be can tell you flbout Joe'a stomach. The ropes were very loose and Bishop wouldn't get the eprlng-back that he generaly does when he lets his opponent run him back to them. This use of the ropes to get a spring is just one of his many tricks. Referee Maurice 'Tiampaigne had to tell Bishop rpf-at-"d!y to let go of Tague"a glove. Bishop drew blood. In the eemi-vinoTup Mike Oswego of Cast Chicago earned a 6hade over Mac McClelland of Whiting. The sis round so of the 118 pounders would have done for a main attraction on many bills. Mao started like a world beater, belting Oswego from all angles, but the experienced Mike got Mao In 2, 3. 4 and 5. Mac made an awful strong bid for the tilt In the last round when It looked a If he wold have hung a knockout on his Opponent had he been fresh. fcolly's title as the newsboy champion was taken from him by All Parker, another newsie who fought at 100, eighteen pounds lighter than Frank. This was Parker's first fight and he showed himself to be tough, fast and a hard hitter. He beat Zolly hands down.
Ump's Final Decision Right, Anyway. Bobby Quinn, who has resigned as secretary of the Columbus American Association team to go hisher in the game, always took a lot of interest in amateur baseball In Columbus and was made a sort of chief umpire to pass as a court of last resort on disputed points. One day the umpire of an amateur game came to Quinn with, this propotition: A runner between third and home gets caught in a run-up and first thing I know the whole team was. in the chase, trying to tag him, outfielders and all of them. X stopped the game and fleclares to them: 'Now all you fellows get back to your positions except the catcher and tho third baseman; let them do the running down and give this fellow a chance.,' "What I want to know is, Mr. Quinn. if I was keeping in the rules. It seems to me I used good Judgment, for this runner didn't have a chance with all nine men after him." And now for Qulnn's decision: "How did the play wind up?" he asked. "Oh, the catcher fmaly put the ball on him and he was out," said the umpire of the amateur game. "Sure he was out?" asked Quinn. "Yes. ho was tagged out all right." "You used good Judgment fine Judgment," thereupon declared Quinn, "and there ain't a chance to protest."

Hyde Park High School Pupils Disprove Being "Suobs" by Attending Athletic Show Wrist Watehcs Taboo.
Neither the members of the board of education nor rival high echools are calling tho boys and girls of Hyde Park high school "snobs" or "carpal watch aristocrats" today. """" The stigma placed upon students in the school by President Jacob M. Loeb some months months ago is gone, because critics who are not trained in the double guard, the straight lefts and the shifts of the boxer consider it unhealthy to indulge In further criticism. The Hyde Park students knocked out such adverse criticism by staging six three-round boxing bouts and a wrestling match in their assembly room, with teachers as Judges and the girls and boys not participating1 as spectators. Although the only place Jn the world where women are allowed to watch boxin: bouts except in the Hyde Park high

Loomis. principal of the school, said he approved the sport If conducted under proper conditions. "We always have a teacher not only present, but in charge of all these exhibitons," Mr. Loomis said. "The teacher is the referee. I approve of boxing and wrestling under rroper conditions, but of course the Bport must be conducted more carefully than football or 'basketball. "Another thing Is that no outsiders are allowed to attend. The first contest was staged . before the parent teachers asociation of the school, and there was applause by the parents. I have heard no adverse criticism."
