EAGLES POUND BALL ALL AROUND LOT TO DEFEAT CONNERSVILLE

THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM, RICHMOND, IND.. MONDAY, JULY 11, 1921.

Pounding the ball to all corners of(

me 101 me t-agiea eteppen upon ir.e Connersville Independents Sunday afternoon at Exhibition park. The final core was 11 to 6. Huddleson, the big twirler for the visitors, started strong, but the Eagles soon solved his slants and scored at will in the latter rounds. The hard hitting of the Eagles was the feature of tbe game and the fans who enjy the hard hitting contest, witnessed plenty of extra base blows during the contest. Game by game the Eagles improve on their defensive play. Their defense was very good Sunday afternoon, although four errors are marked up against them. Logan, who very seldom appears in the misplay column, is marked up with two misplays, although he played a very good game at the keystone sack, making several stops of ground balls and getting his man at first. Interesting. The game was one of the most interesting games played on the local grounds this season, due to the fact that the number of strikeouts were considerably smaller than in the previous games, the players all hitting the ball. Fielding honors were divided between Logan and Long, both accepting nine chances. Long commiting one misplay, and Logan bobbling two times. Logan also appeared in two double .killings, starting one nnd making one unassisted. The Eagles started strong getting two runs over the pan in the first Inning, three In the third and two more in the fourth. Connersville scored- two in the third and three in the fifth and looked good to tie up the score but some tight pitching by Hawekotte and some good fielding pulled him through safely. Sew Up Game In the seventh inning the Eagles sewed up the game, when Byrkett hit a long fly to left field that took one bound and went over the fence for a homer. Logan followed suit and his hit hard hit liner down the left field fould line also bounded over the fence

for a homer. The eighth inning also saw two runs across the pan after Minner was given a life on King's errors, Byrkett cracked out his second nomer a long drive to right center that he managed to stretch into a homer by some fast base running. Byrkett and Fitzgibtons shared the batting honors, each getting three hits out of five trips to the plate; Byrkett got two homers and a single and Fltzgibbons two triples and a singles. Next Sunday the Lynn Independents will play the Eagles at Exhibition park. The score: Connersville AB. R. H. O. A. E.

Joe Benjamin, Shifty Pugilist, Started Boxing in Kidhood Days Got Boxing Gloves at Age of Six Got Socked in Nose First Day and Determined To Get Revenge After Leonard's Scalp

By FRAXK G. MEXKE At the tender age of 6, the paternal parent of Joe Benjamin presented him

with a set of boxing gloves as a birthday gift. "Just why my dad gave me mitts at that age is something I didn't learn until a long time afterward," relates the lightweight who is touted by many as a certain successor of Benny Leonard. "It seems my dad was shopping around in a store and they were 'stuck' with the gloves nobody wanted to buy 'em, I guess. So the salesman told my dad what a great thing boxing gloves were for a boy of 8 and my father trundled them home." Benjamin confesses that he didn't get much steamed up over the present, having expected an electrical train or a fireman's suit. So he stored away the gloves. In due course of time, Joe's father began asking the boy why he didn't use them. Got Socked on Nose.

"I didn't have any decent excuse, so to please him I grabbed off one of my boy friends and we began to box," related Benjamin. '"It so happened that the other kid socked me in the nose the first day. Right then and there I decided upon revenge. So I coaxed him into boxing with me the next day. And then we kept right on which was the way my boxing career started." Joe engaged in tussles with his boy friends through the next six or seven years, improving with experientce, but never giving a serious thought to boxing as a profession. But at the age of 13 something happened that changed his whole career. "About that time a kid moved nixt door to us who had won the amateur championship in the 118 pound class," recounted Benjamin. "He was of course, the envy of the neighborhood. And he was a proud and haughty bird, too." Learns Power "One Saturday afternoon he called over the fence to ask me if I'd box with him and give him a little practise. He, was scheduled to mix it in some sort of tournament. I consented, even the other fellow outweighed me nearly 20 pounds at the time. "He promised to go easy with me but he started to pull the double cross. He wanted punching practice, I guess, and decided I could be the bag. When he began to tear in I decided to tear right back at him. And the affair was a merry man. At the end of the four rounds he was a dreary looking sight and I didn't have many marks on me. "That soured the kid. He waited a week. Then he asked me to box him again. I knew he was to knock me for a row of log cabins so as to get

revenge. But I figured I could take' him. So we went right to it that same afternoon and the bout in his back yard, was certainly full of action. Knocks Him Out "It didn't last long. I knocked him down near the end of the first round, one of our mutual boy friends having agreed to act as timer. And in the second I knocked him cuckoo. When I saw him collapse and lay still on the ground I nearly died of shock. "I thought I had killed him. One of the boys ran and . got a bucket of water. We poured it on him and he came back to life. "That night I got to thinking things over. If he was a champion, and I had knocked him cold. 1 then must be the champion. So I figured it all out that if he was the best tournament performer, I could get into them and grab a few medals myself." Success Phenominal. It's Pacific coast history that Benjamin forhtwith became a battler in

i amateur affairs and quickly won one

ui ine ngnter cnampionsnip divisions after another. His success was so phenominal that .his friends urged upon him to become a "pro." And he did. Benjamin ranks today as one of the shiftiest, cleverest, smartest lightweights that ever donned the gloves. He's a phantom fighter on defense and a wonder in taking punishment. He was a sparring partner of Jack Dempsey in Atlantic City and stood up without quivering under the maul er's pounding. And Benjamin can hit He hammered more men to sleep in 1920 than any lightweight in the game. He hits terrifically with either hand and whales the body as well as the jaw.

tsui Benjamin has one fault. He

lacks savagery. He doesn't take his

battling seriously. It's all fun with

him and he has tossed away some decisions simply because he "played around." "If that bird ever can get himself all sored up before each fight, he'll whip every living lightweight," pre

dicts Dempsey. And Jack knows

quite considerable about fictic worth. (Copyright 1021 By Kins Features Syndioaic, Inc.) Fountain City Drubs New Madison Nine FOUNTAIN CITY, July 11.

HOLLANSBURG ROMPS OVER NEW MADISON; ROOTER RIVALRY KEEN NEW MADISOX, O.. July 11. Hollansburg romped over the New Madison baseball team here -Sunday afternoon and scored a 13 to 4 victory. The game was a hard-fought contest throughout but the weakening of the New Madi.?on defense in the sixth inning allowed Hollansburg to chase across six tallies, which nut the game on ice for them. Garthwaite was the bright light for the Hollansburg team, pitching good ball and garnering four hits out of five trips to the plate, three of these hits eing for extra bases. Wolf, Hollansburg catcher, also wielded a wicked stick, gettins five hits f-it f - -up. Hdllansburg played air-tight ball throughout. -Errors are Costly. Xew Madison played good ball during the early innings, but a bun'-'i of errors, all of which were taken advantage of by the visitors, put the game out of their reach. Three of the Xew Madison regulars were out of the pame. Rogers pitched good ball for the locals and hit heavily but his efforts were to no avail. - ( The rivalry between the various rooting sections was keen and at times almost threatened to disrupt proceedings. The Hollansburg delegations staged a demonstration with Garthwaite as the center, immediately following the game. Xew Madison plays Ansonia at Ansonia next Sunday.
