HUE EARNS BIG MONEY IN UNITED STATES Other Boxers from England and Australia, However, Find Going Rough.

'INTERNATIONAL NEWS SERVICE 1 VEw YORK, April 30 English and Auatrallan boxers who have com to eur shores to seek fame anil some aaay money have received rather rude awakenings with the exception of Jimmy Wilde, the flyweight king:. Jimmy alone has succeeded In living: up to the claims that were made for him on the oher side of the pond, even though he got away to a bad

atart against Jack Sharkey. The little Britton is cleaning up lots of money over here, and since he became acclimated he la also cleaning up all opponents of his own weight and a good many who outweigh, him by many pounds. The coming of Wilde to America has acted as atonic on the bantamweight division. The bantles are in better demand and are getting more money from the promoters for fix. eight and ten-round bouts than they 'eer got before. Wilde should have little or no trouble clainlng up a toal of $125,000 before he says, farewell to America to sail back to England and reap another harvest there. Having beaten Frank 'Mason, the leading American boxer In the flyweight division. Wilde has little or nothing to worry about, for his title is safe enoiigrh. He may take on Patsy Wallace, the tough little Philadelphia flyweight. In a ten round bout in Detroit 1n the near future. Wallace gave the Britton a hard fight in six rounds at Philadelphia and Jimmy wants to settle the qiestlon of superiority between them to the enire

NEWARK SHOES are popular with millions, not only Because they coat loss than others, and because they pve the limit of woar, but because they also give their ."r-s comfort. This is an important point to keep in mind these first warm days of summer when you just itch to get your feet into a pair of eool, comfortable, low shoes. . . . Newark shoes offer a plentiful ranety of styles and leathers

for business, dress, worK ana sport, wear.

may be nursing the opinion that Wilde met hla match when he faced Wallace. A Detroit promoter has offered little Jimmy 110,000 for a ten round set-to with Wallace. Some ft Wilde's countrymen who recently arrived In the United Statrs have found the going a bit Jiff erei . Tommy Nwble. Joie F"x, Johnny Sheppurd, Freddie Jacks and Corporal Blumenfeld. all claiming some sort of British championships, are the Britishers now campaigning on thts side of the pond. Sheppard has done fairly well, though he has evidently been pretty careful not to overmatch himself. Freddie Jacks was recently gien the surprise of his young life by Toughey Murray, a SMtsburgh scrapper whom he met In Detroit. Consensus of opinion at the rtngsMe favored Murray and he waa given the better of aeen out of ten rounds. Jole Fox has been beaten in several starts, and his recent ' knockout In Hartford at the hands of Toung Chaney was a bad setback. Corporal Blumenfeld and Tommy Noble have not yet been given the opportunity to show their wares against any American scrappers with class enough to make them travel. The Australian contingent has fared as poorly. Jimmy nni, who claims the Australian featherweight title, had his dream bubble bursted by Benny Valuer, who knocked him out. I,ew Edwards, the lightweight champion of the Antipodes, came here with a wonderful reputation as a knockerout and flopped before the punches t Hitcnie Mitchell In Milwaukee in his first American appearance. The next arrivals will he Frenchmen, following- in the wake of Georges Carpentier and both stablemates of the European heavyweight champion. They are Papln, the French lightweight champion, and Iedoux. who holds the European bantamweight crown .

Mike O'Dowd Booked for $20,000 Worth of Fights KEW TOR.K. April SO. Mike O'Dowd. the middleweight champion, will make over 120.000 next month, as he is slated tf engage in four contests. For his twelve-round bout with Champion Jack Britton he is to get a guarantee of J10.000.

High School Stars Contest At Gleason Pk.

At 1:30 tomorrow afternoon a pistol nll crack In Glason park. Gary, and crouching sprinters rpresenting Hammond. Whiting, and Emerson of Gary, will dash for a tap stretched arross the cinder path 100 yards away. It will be the- first event of a triangular mvt which promises to be replete -with surprises and which has excited more comment and expectations than any similar occasion In IJiUn county scholastic contests for several years. Wrhtting high school, though not represented In the scheduled triangular meet which Included teams from Industrial high and East Chicago, hrld last Saturday In Hammond, will surprise rivals tomorrow when the lads who were eliminated lat week on account of sickness, don their togs and stretch a few pairs r-f sturdy legs and expand a fewpairs of lusty lungs. Benson of Whiting csm do the mile in 4:55 the time made list Saturday at Hammond was 6:31. 'And that ain't all they've got Nejdl in the sprints. Carran In the high jump and hurdles. Thiessen in the 440-yard dash, and Kekirh and Wichorst in the distance runs. Emerson lines up with a strong bunch of athletes. Most of the men are pretty well seasoned and considerable opposition Is looked for from the Garyites.

Whiting and Emerson will clash on the diamond. It will be the first time the Oil City high school' has even been represented by a. ball team and Coach Hart is skeptical of the result of tomorrow's fray. Meivln will probably hurl for Whit

ing although other slab aspirants are I

O'Connell and Hardy. Thieesen will either pitch or play third base. Hardy or Stoweil will hold down the Initial tack, while Wichorst is thought to have cinched the base at second. Benson In left field and Burke In center are probable. P.ight field has many contenders and Coach Hart hasn't yet decided nhrthcr it will be Koch, Duggan, or Moymhan. The game is slated to start at 3:30 p. m.
