Game and willing, Flynn waa a badly beaten fighter when the bout waa stopped Carter, husky little negro who holdB tne ma-pound A. A. U. title, and Wertheimer. Intercollegiate king in tho samo division, saw their chances oktd away through defeats by oppon- uuui mey iiguroa to oeat. Homian Wiillarm, another dusky performer, from Detroit, took Carter's measure by pasulng out a first class boxing lesson. It was a "turn about" propo sition as in the recent A. A. U. tour nament, Carter was the one who had his hand raised. Wertheimer, a Syra cuse university student, was elimin ated by Fred Lynch of the Multno mah A. C, Portland, Ore.

He 1 was returned to Indianapolis, how- ! ever, where he won 12 and lost 8. I Finishing the season here, he won i two out of three. The most retiring member of the Indian camp, Hildy started slowly ' this year, but when the club be- j gan its second eastern invasion he was called upon to face the Sen- f ators. The lean rookie pitohed the best game turned in so far this sea- ! son by a Cleveland moundsman, a j six-hit affair that accounted for one ' of the Indians four victories In one I series with Washington. His next start was against the Athletics, a ten-Inning winning ef- fort in which "Hildy" twice fanned the redoubtable Jimmy Foxx each i time with two out and bases I loaded. HUdebrand's courage in pitching to Foxx brought him no end of praise. For the first time the lanky, 28-year-old Hoosier enjoyed the sensation of having "arrived." Twice in his time Hildebrand has come close to a no-hlt game. Once Chuck Klein, now with the Phillies, then a semi-pro. ruined the attempt with a triple, and in 1930 the Columbus team nicked him for but one hit.
