-Lou-Marsh-8ays There Is-No THE DAILY BRITISH WHIG In the World of Sport CLAIMS PICTURES UPHOLD HIS FIGHT DECISION | Doubt About Wilde Winning. According to Lou Marsh, the well- | known Toronto sport writer and box- ing referee, who was the third man in the ring for the Wilde-Wallace fight, there is no doubt as to who Rowing Boom at Winnipeg. The Winnipeg Rowing Club made the "first public demonstration of its return to activ after the..latent period enfo the war on Sat- urday afternoon, successful and inspiring spring re- gatta, with 27 working boat crews competing for the Bunnell trophy.

Sul- livan, Corbett, itzslmmons and Jeffries all were ring idols, and their passing was deeply regretted by those Who were sentimentally inclined and hated to see the good man beaten. Johnson was unpopular not bécause he could not fight like a champion, but because his presence threatened the existence of the sport. Johnson's actions out of the ring were such that the reformers were furnished with plenty of ammunition for their cam- paigns, so that the fans heaved many a sigh of relief when his disturbing < presence was removed. : Jess Willard was the first no- \ |decision champion of the heavy- Ril] | weight class. The big fellow was B21 |unpopular because he obviously de- Fra, the boxing game and because it was so hard to lure him into the ring. Willard lacked color and al- together was out of place as the | world's heavyweight champion. Stanley Ketchell was the last high- i ly popular middleweight champion. | He was the last of those who did | most of their fighting in real battles { to a decision. Papke was the first of the no-decision middleweight cham- pions. Before his time there never had been a title-holder who did not enjoy the full respect' of boxing followers. Papke, Klaus, Chip and McCoy all lacked something. None was able to acquire a strong follow- ing and each in turn passed on with- out causing more than a ripple of the fistic puddle. All th oldtime welterweight champions' were highly popular with the fans until the no:decision bout came along. | In the long history of the light- { weight class there has been only one | unpopular champion, McAuliffe, | Lacigne, Erne, Gans, Nelson, Wol- gast and Ritchie' were ring idols. The featherweight champions were ! all great fighting men and each was | decidedly popular until the advent of | Johnny Kilbane. KOLEHMAINEN FIRST. Finlander Won Trial Marathon of American Team. Hannes Kolehmainen, of Brook- lyn, triple winner in the last Olympic games at Stockholm, won the 26% mile 'marathon race Saturday at Travers Island under the auspices of the New York Athletic Club, in which long distance runners from principal 'cities east of Chicago com- peted. Ploughing through mud, Koleh- mainen did the distance in two hours, 47 minutes, 49 2-5 seconds. Joseph Organ of the Pittsburg Athletic As- sociation was second and John Tuo- mikoski, of the Quincy, Mass, Ath- letic Club, was third. The next seven men to finish after Tuomikoski were as follows: Wil- I'am Wick, of Quincy, Mass: Jack Weber, of Pittsburg; William Kyron- en, Brooklyn; Charles Mellor, Chie- ago; Edwin White, New York; Hugo Kauppineu, Finnish A. C.; and Cliff Mitchell, of St. Christopher. The race was one of the tryouts for the American Olympic team, but Kolehmainen, born in Finland, is in- eligible to. represent the United States. Organ, who was half a mile behind Xolehmainen, covered the distance in 2.51.06 1-5, and prob- ably will be considered by the Amer- ican Olympic Committee in the selec- tion of runners for the long race. Kolehmainen used a steady gait and permitted the other runpers to keep the lead until in the 25th mile, when he passed Organ, after which he quickened his pace. Wick gave up the lead at the 15th mile to Tuomik- oski, who was passed at the 18th mile by Ohman, of Boston, and Kyronen. Organ, a few yards ahead of Kolehmainen, took up the lead, shortly before the 25th mile mark . Thirty-five of the 55 starters fin- ished. Ohman of Boston was 11th, M. J. Lynch, of Washington, 12th, and F. Conby, of Buffalo, 19th. Con Riley and Gerry Aldous re- spectively, both famous in Canadian and world rowing circles. was the better man. Marsh main- taing that Wilde won by a wide mar- gin, despite the bad wallop Wallace shoved over in the seventh round. In this connection Marsh's comment on the fight, in this week's Canadian Sporting Review is interesting. He says: "Wilde-Wallace fight pictures shown here this week show con- clusively who won the battle of May 24th. Wilde won on points, won every round, despite the bad clout he got from Wallace in the seventh. The pictures show that conclusively, and wherever they are shown there can be no argument. They can show them wherever they please and turn the rounds inside out and wrong side foremost, but the pictures will show the fighting atom the clear-cut vie- tor." Marsh goes on to say that there | was a desperate effort made to se- | cure a decision for Wallace, a fact which is generally recognized by all Canadian boxing fans. According to the Toronto official the people be- hind the effort were emboldened by the fact that the affair was handled by American promoters. Everything was 80 diametrically opposed to the canons of good sportsmanship that the local officials were completely dumbfounded and did not know how to act. If the wind-up could have been foreseen Cutch and his friends would have been shown out of the place for raising such a disturbance over Wilde's broken glove in the fourth and fifth rounds. There is no place in sport in Canada for peo- ple who act as Cutch did. HOMERS FREQUENT IN MAJOR LEAGUES The close races for leadership in the two major leagues are almost eclipsed by the heavy batting and scoring of nearly all the teams. The American League amassed a total of 309 runs and 571 hits in 28 games last week, while the National League had a total of 250 runs and 532 hits in 27 games. Of the 30 home runs made in the younger ledgue, 21 were pounded out at New York, where "Babe" Ruth brought his sea- son total to 15. In the National League 18 circuit smashes were made. !

One of the finest discoveries in medicine was given to the public when "Catarrhozone" was placed on the market about fifteen years ago. Since then thousands have been cur- ed of asthma and catarrh. An fnter- esting case is reported from Calgary in a letter from Creighton B2 Thomp- son, who says: "Nothing too strong can be said for Catarrhozone. I suffered four years from asthma in a way that would beggar description. I went through everything that man could suffer. I was told of Catarrhozone by a clerk in Findlay's drug store and purchased a dollar package. It was worth hundreds to me in a week and 1 place a priceless value on the benefit I have since derived.
