Mayor J. W. McClendon and "Old Itosebud." When Mayor J. W. McClendon of Hot Springs, Ark., -welcomed the return of the thoroughhred3 to the Arkansas Spa there was none about whom more interest centered than "Old Rosebud, the pride of the Applegata colors. In his two and three-year form this scion of Uncle, out of Ivory Belle, was beaten only three times in his career. For the past two years he has not been meed, but now in six-year-oM form is a "comeback" about whom Ow.-.crs Ham C. Applegate and Frank Weir attach much hope.

I- yes are cast towards I31iHm;ntnit ; lda- where the stage is .st tor the j sate basketball tournament of Indiana! ! ich schools. Friday and Saturday, and! Lake county enthusiasts have confidence j that the Emerson players who easily won the sectional tournament at. Valpa-j rarso also will give a guotl account of'

t mseK es. The northern Indiana tournament at Valparaiso was a, listless affair w itiK to the redistrict ingr this year by whi-h Houth Bend. La Porte. Elkhart and Michigan tMty were divorced from this section and a hunch of punks shoved off on it. Having meekly stood for this caiuminv. fans who went to tVie tournament saw all they could possibly expert. Everyone had a nice social time and there were some exciting moments in the final fame between the two ;ary schools. Emerson defeated Froebel l'G To 1!. carrying the dope out to the letter. 'i'HF.

LITTLE STORIES OF SPORTING LIFE PICKED UP IN PASSING

PETE IIEll

SOME FIGHTER

By II. C. EAZ01I,TOJJ(United Press Staff Correspondent.) XEW YORK. March 12 . Peter Uulatto, otherwise known as pete If. iman, the new bantamweight, champion', is off to a running start in the defensor" his acquired title. He is one of the boys to whom the newspaper writers point with prid as a "voouth who isn't

assuming, wants to fight, end is o-!ier-wise an ideal chap. j

Whether hell be able to ;Vo rl jf,v Gf fame without getting the swelled head and a consequent reputation for using dollars as a bed is something to be developed in th spring of old man Time. Right now he has it. It is to I... hoped he sticks by it. Pete began this life as n boot black. Being a native of Italy, he ha;- nothing on several thousand of his countrymen who are shining their way to fame in the land of the free and the home of the brave. There was a hnd. though, hoidj character in Xew Orleans, where Pete gathered in the nickels, who used to come around about once a, wc-k and make a collection of nickels and dimes off the bootblacks. They il j.aid up V.k? !;t' rnn Pen- included. One day lvte d eided he wanted ai: the money he marie fop his v,ry own. and he liid for the y iuth who came around after the dimes. He refused to shell on", with the result that the youth aught. P. te one on the chin and nearly puvenzed him. When Pete came to j,n brushed Iiis clothes, started down the street, and when he found said youth he commenced ' right. The jouth of the dime and nic.-. rr !,.- j.,j w-?; s-:nt to a hospent. From that time ,,n j',-,. had his nick, is and dim. s and a fighting reputa'ion. The latter w.ir. so good he derided to put it to use. which lie did with such snocss that i1r- "ms towered over rite others in hs class to the xtent ttiat he now is ehamidoi,. Herman is jus. ;t. He has been fighting six years. He stands Z f.-et 2 inches and weighs J 1 ; pounds right along. Sonic il.ij off m the futurt Pete is going to have n cafe in Xew Orleans. Also, on top i sgoiiig to be a gvmnasium. He wants to tight, just now fight 'em all. A champion, he believes., should prove it.

McCoy's Surprise Party. Veteran h ovine; f !t;s l're.piei.t'.y t!(! anecdotes of. Kid Mct'Vy, whos,. Lit si sc'neme is to establish a l!!:m men's training resort near New York. Here is one of the old Virus: In P'.h; Mn.'oy pulhd off his famous surpri-e party on Tommy ivv'iti at Masp.-th. L. I. McCoy had it in toe Tomicy. and bo was "m the pink" vi.I:en he faced Ilyfiu that night. The clever Hoosc-r kid had created the impression th'.t be hadn't trained for the con'os':, but privately he had worked c'r.g and hard f.. get into condition, with Steve O'Ponncll in charge of the job. Misb-d by the reports of the Kid's inactivity. Ryan did practically no work, and l.e w;is far from at his best. In fact, he has since declared that he never entered a ring in worse condition. A lot of Ryan's1 friends from Syracuse were at the fight and they- offered odds of from 2 to 1 to 3 to 1. with Ryan the favorite. By acting as Ryan's sparring partner in his novice, days, McCoy had become familiar with all the tricks in Tommy's box, and he immediately set in to s.iv Ryen a. terrible drubbing. A f f r ciosmg PtYan's optics, flattening his rcse and beating his face to a pulp, McCoy decided that his revenge vvas complete, aol ju the fifteenth round lie put over the kit k that stretch- d Ryan cut for the count.
