In The World Of Sport BEST OF FEATHERWEGHTS "TERRIBLE TERRY" McGOVERN WAS A GREAT FIGHTER. Smashing Irishman Battered Down All Opposition Until He Met Cool, Deliberate Young Corbeti~--Story of McGovern's Fall. erry McGovern who died last Frid®y in New York, was the great- est of all featherweights who ever held the title. "Terrible Terry" McGovern is known only by name to the younger generation of ring followers, but there never has been another McGovern ifi the featherweight class. For years after MecGovern's time every manager of fighters searched the country for "another McGovern." None was ever found. Terry was the greatest and most sensational fighter that ever held a featherweight title. His finish, like that of Hannibal, Napoleon and other great conquerors in history, was sud den and complete. It came when Young Corbett, an unknown from the West, knocked him cold in the sec- ond round of the fastest and furious battle ever seen in a ring, Held Two Titles It came @about when Terry MeGov- ern was regarded as the Jone abso- lutely invincible champion, His car- eer had gone through several stages then. He had been bantam champion, had whipped the bantam champion of England, Pedlar Palmer, in a round and had become featherweight champion by knocking out the fam- ous George Dixon. After a while McGovern found himself in the same position sometimes occupied by a heavyweight champion. There was ne one left to give him a fight. And in those days the country was full of first-class twenty-round fighters in every class. Enter Young Corbett. Out in the west, around Denver, was a fighter calling himself Young Corbett (his real name was Billy Rothwell) and just to get Terry a fight, he was offered a couple of thousand dollars, and came to New York all alone. People liked. him, and felt sorry for him. They had seen McGovern fight. Thanksgiving day of 1901 at Hart- ford was cold and snow covered the ground. But a crowd came out from New York t6 see McGovern,"and the arena was packed. "Come on ogt, you Terry," shouted Corbett, "and take your licking!" + Perry came with a rush, eyes blaz- ing. No one had ever talked to him like that before. Mt was the first move in the plan by which Corbett meant to win, ww Then came the fight. Those who saw it will remember it to their dying day as the greatest two rounds ever fought. A Young Corbett"s Nerve. The first round was a terrific fight, with McGovern being forced near the finish. But it was in the second round that the sensation came. Just when the fighting was at its hottest Young Corbett did an amazing thing ~a thing that showed him to. be a ring master with no equal." Suddenly he stopped hitting and reached out slowly with his left arm. Terry, as- tonished and wondering what This new manoeuvre meant, hardly moved as Corbett deliberately chucked him under the chin with extended finger tips and tilted his head back. When Terry's chin was placed to suit him, Corbett whippad over a terrific right- hander. Down went McGovern, flat on his back. Thefcrowd gasped. Terry rolled over, got to his knees, and shaking his head to clear his numbed brain, crawled to the ropes and pulled himself up to his feet. Standing erect, still holding the ropes, he turned his head to look for Sam Harris, who was running frantically around to throw - water on him. Young Corbett meanwhile calmly stepped back and waited. A Finish Never to be Forgotten. Terry turned and saw Corbett smil- ing at him. New fury blazed from his eyes. Letting the rope go he charged straight at Corbett. . McGovern was He proved it now. Slam, bang, he battered Corbett to the ropes and backed him up against a ring post, Corbett could #o nothing but cover and stall, while Terry tried to beat him down. It looked sure that Corbett would be knocked out. Half a minute or so he weather- 3 3 most a ed the battering, then managed to slip away from the post and escape to the middle of the ring. He was a lit- tie dazed himself. Terry turned and dashed at him. Terry's left hook started for Cor-| bett's jaw. Then, so suddenly that the flying fists passed in'midair, he whipped that overhaund right across inside of Terry's hook. Corbett's blow shugged fairly on Terry's chin. Terry fell at full length, flat on his back---knocked out cold for the first time in his life.

THREE KINGSTON BOYS Who are in the Toronto Dental Hock- ey Team. - Three of the champion Toronto Dental Hockey players are Kingston bdys. .Here is what the Toronto World says about them: 5 Charlie Stewart (goal)--comes from Kingston, Ont., and played his first hockey on the defence for King- ston Collegiate Institute . and later with Kingston Frontenacs. His first attempt at goal-keeping was with Argonauts, three years 'ago, when he was pressed into service when Gil- bert was taken ill." He made good: in his first game and has starred ever since. This is his second year with Dentals. «Rupert (Ruby) Millan (centre) is another Kingston product. He start- ed with Regipolis College of that city and later played with the Frontenacs. While small of stature, he is a great stick-handler, and has a faculty of always being in the proper place and being able to score goals. Jimmie Stewart (forward) is a brother of the goalkeeper, and also started playing with Kingston Col- legiate Institute and Kingston Fron- tenacs. He was with Argonauts three years ago, and has since been with the Dentals. DATES FOR ALLAN CUP Elimination Contests Will Commence - This Week. Secretary W. A. Hewitt of the Canadian Amateur Hockey Associa- tion announces that arrangements have been finally completed for the Allan Cup elimination games and finals for the amateur championship of Canada, The trophy will be defended by the O.H.A. champions, either Dentals or Kitchener, and four games, the semi- finals and finals, will be played on Toronto ice, which will mean four great games for the cup. BOXING AND BAYONET FIGHTING MUCH ALIKE Ring Champions lllustrate the Different Blows Before the = Camera. Films showing the relationship be- tween boxing and bayoneting and demonstrating the methods of using the bayonet have been prepared by the Commissions on Training Camp Activities of the War and Navy De- partments and distributed for exhib- ition in the various National Army and National Guard cantonments and haval stations to facilitate the edu- cation of the soldiers and sailors along those lines, Johnny Kilbane, Benny Leonard, Kid McCoy and James J. Corbett posed for the pictures illustrating in detail the proper way of starting and landing the different blows and how to put the full force of the body be- hind them. Their counterparts in bayoneting are demonstrated by Cap- tain James Donovan, of Toronto, who was instruotdr in bayoneting fighting at Shornecliff, England. Captain Donovan spent twenty-two months in the trenches and was wounded at Ypres. "Bayoneting is boxing with a gun in your hands," is one of the ex- pressive sub-titles of the film, which afterward shows Johnny Kilbane starting a left hook for the head of Benny Leonard, and Captain Dono- van using the same movements in sending his bayonet slashing for the neck of an armed antagonist. The similarity between blows in boxing and also shown in the film. For in- stance, a soldier using the right hook to the jaw duplicates the blow when he swings the butt of his guh on the jaw of a foe. In addition, the pictures make clear that a man Who has developed speed on his feet through boxing has a decided advan- tage over his opponent in a duel with cold steel, other bayoneting is ALL HAVE NOT DECIDED HOW TO USE SURPLUS The Cubs and the Giants Will Give It To Charity. The New York Giants and the Chi- cago Cubs----both clubs of the Na- tional League---are the only majhr league organizations that have form- ed any definite plans for the use of the surplus pennies which will come from the war tax and the added few cents decided on recently at a meet- ing of a committee in New York. Reports received today by the United Press show that the club own- ers, with these two exceptions, either have formed no definite plan, or see no reason why they should donate their surplus to charity. Even the Washington club, of which Clarke Griffith is mafiager, has done noth- ing. Griffith is in charge of a fund to supply baseballs, bats and gloves to soldiers in cantonments. Secretary John B. Foster of the Giants, said that club had donated about 40,000 free admissions to sol- diers last year, and in addition, had given a huge sum to charity. The fund from surplus -pennies will be laid aside solely for charitable pur- poses. B Waller Craighead, secrstary of the Cubs, favors giving the whole thing to charity. President Navin, of the Tigers, hasn't made up his mind yet what he will do. President Haughton, of the Braves, is waiting for the Ameri- an league to do something. Harry Frazee, of the Red Sox, will do as the others do. No answer was re- ceived 'from the Cleveland club. Garry Herman, of the Reds, has not made a reply. Harry Grabiner, of the White Sox will not be found wanting, pointing to Comiskey's do- nations last year. No one could make a reply in St. Louis. Barney Dreyfus, of the Pirates, was ill and could not answer. The Dodgers are waiting and so are the Yankees, Dye Is Reco vering. "Babe" Dye, of the De la Balle téam, who was injured in Kingston {Friday night, is in St. Michael's hos- pital, Toronto, but will probably leave that institution today. It was a first feared that a bone in his instep was broken, but an X-ray examination showed that these fears were ground- less and that only a slight €prain ex- isted. MeCurry's hand is healing {fast and he will be ready for the re- turn game at the Arena on Thursday. The Irish have to overcome a three- {goal lead.

Scathing rebuke of the brewers who, he said,entertained the players of the Syracuse University at a beef- steak dinner with beer at the close of the 1917 season, was administered in emphatic terms by Chancellor James R, Day ina sermon in the First Baptist Church at Syracuse, N. Y., last Sunday. Dr. Day declared the entertain- ment took place at a brewery or ad- jacent thereto at a time when all were enthusiastic over the most successful year in the history of Uni- verSity athletics and that the affair was unknown to the administration of the institution at the time, "I had rather there never he a football team in connection with gyr- acuse University than to have this sort of thing made an annual pract- ice," declared the chancellor, "and with the help of the good: lord I assure you it will never occur again." At the conclusion of this sentence the congregation of more than 1,800 persons broke out into hearty ap- plause. Women seldom mean it when they kiss each other. The average wonan would rather bite a piece out of the other's complexion. Most of our time {s passed in get- g used to the things we didn't ex- tin poet. By aly 33 Eddie Collins Demon Slugger A demon statistican comes along with some mighty interesting dope on Eddie Collins, the great second sacker of the Whitd Sox. Eddie has always been considered a won- derful swatter, but these figures show that Columbia Eddie smacks the wonder box workers as well as he does the ordinary performers. Collins clubbed Rube Waddell's of- ferings for .400 in nine games. Joe Wood was always a einch for Bddie. He smashed the speed king's offerings for an average of .380 in 28 clashes. Eddie Cicotte never had any terrors for Collins, who amassed & mark of 365 against his present feammate in 20 games. Walter Johnson is the real jinx for Collins. Eddie has been unable to cripple Johnson's speed as the record shows. In 53 games in 12 years, Collins has made but 40 hits off the Washington star for an average of .219, . Showing Those New Yorkers. Haymarket Fauitless, a white bull terrier, owned and bred by R. H, Elliot, of Ottawa, stepped into the refront among the ¢efitenders for 'highest honors in the Westminister Kennel Club show at Madison Square Garden, New York. He swept every- thing before him in his classes, and competent judges declared that it would take a truly wonderful dog to defeat him in the contest for the best of all breeds in the show.
