HARRISON. X. J, July 59. Jack

Pempsev cf California punched his way; to pugilistic fame at the Federal leagu J baseball park here Saturday afternoon j when he knced out Fred Fulton of j Minnesota, claimant of the heavyweight , tit!-, with a terrific right swing to th ; .law w h.'n the ilpht was only twent; - three seconds old. The flrish came a ft sensational surprise to 'ho crow d for ; ft was really a one punch fight. ! Fulton did- not once hit Demrsey ( w ith a blow When the oout started j Fulton, smiling- and confident, stuck out his long left arm and tried to jam j Dempsey. but Jack cracked him with a j hard right over the heart. Fulton was t hurt by this blow, and Dompspy went J tearing after him. A left hook to the : jaw tottered the big plasterer a hit. and i when Dempsey had rushed Fulton over near the ropes Dempsey's right arm ' swung high and came down with a tor- , rif.c crash on Fulton's jaw. j Jack I lis a Terry McQovern. The kangaroolike Fulton crumpled up j

and sagged to the floor, his head falling over the, lower rope. His eyes closed and there was a look of pain over his pals face. Dempsey stood off from him. the typical picture of the master fighter. There was the cold, sneering look of the primitive man on his face. He w-as

P. Dempsey fought like an enlarged edi

tion of Terry McGovern. At the tap of

the bell he rushed at Fulton, determined to make a fight of :t. He cracked him with the knocout wallop before Fujton knew where he was. Fulton started out with the Idea of boxing Dempsey and holding him off until he got a line on his tactics. This plan failed because Dempsey jumped into the scrap from the first and didn't give Fulton even time to think. Tultoa Knocked Out Coll. Fulton made desperate efforts to get up. but he couldn't move his giant frame more than an inch or so from the floor, end then eank back. His manager. Hike Collins, begged and Implored him to get up, but Fulton was out cold and done for. The knockout was one of the quickest on record for an important bout. It takes rank with the quick finish of the Dal Hawkins-Solly Smith bout at Carson City, Nev.. when Hawkins knocked ut his man with one punch.

Jack Dempsey's recent ring activities brings to mind the fact that he, like many other heavyweights who have made a pood living in the ring pamj of late years, exes Carl Morris, the first "white hope," for his start toward ring prominence. Jack got his start by beating Morris.

It. was certainly a dull day for the local outfield as but two balls were knocked into that territory. Peters, the Giants' third sacker. played a dazzling game in the field and kept the crowd amused by his funny capers.

FORT SHERIDAN, ILL.. July 29. The navy ensign floats over the land emblematic of .the middleweight championship of the United States championship forces. As the Hun is being driven back on the western front so did Harry Greb, champion of the navy, drive Eddie McGoorty, champion of the army, back until the fall of the "army" was accomplished in a terrific ten round engagement at Fort Sheridan Saturday afternoon. The referee's decision deter mined the winner, but a decision was not necessary. Chicago fans, about 4.CO0 of them there will be a lot more regretful they weren't there when they read of the battle saw- th;s Pittsburgh Jackie for the first time. They saw a fight the equal o.f which seldom Is seen in any ring. It was a tight, for the honor of Being the greatest ring man in warservice of the countrv. It was a fight that shot the red blood in the veins to the highest, pitch. Gre Puts Vp Orea.t Tight. In that crowd which fat in comfort In the big drill hall at the Fort there were those who gazed in wonder as the rugged Greb. always on the aggressive, tore into the. army champion, shifted from side to side, and slimmed both hands, fast as the piston of an engine moves, into the army sector. "That fellow's a fighting: fool," shouted one o.f the ringeiders. Fart of that Is true, make no mistake about It, and tnat Is that Greb is a fighter.

Arls'os and Hammond got tnrough six innings of a hot pitching duel without either scoring before rain busted up their battle at Armitage and Cicero avenues. Jim Reynolds, the Cub prospect, gave the Aristos just one single In six rounds. Capt. Jack Ness cracking a clean one to center. Matt Zeizer yielded a pair cf doubles and a single, but was supreme in tight spots. The result leaves the coming Feries between the Aristos and Albany Park a clear f.ght for the City league championship. Neither lost a league game, and Hammond, which dropped only one. was unable to wreck the Aristo record. Score: Aristos. r. h. p. a.

First Thrope wa used and then Wilhoit. George Burni was transferred from left field to righ' field and the newest members of th regular garden crew were sent to patra the sun field. Larry Doyle was out ot the game, and a youngster. Sicking, wa, sent to take his place. However, the Giants were traveling along at a good speed until It becami necessary to remove Kauff from the lin up.
