fpilE biggest surprise In fistic cir
cles during: the week, ' perhaps
the year, was Battling Ortega'
agreeing to meet Mike O'Dowd again
In a 10-roand de
cision fight. : The
local fight r colony
had predicted that
Ortega waa , so
overjoyed at being
presented with a
draw against the
premier middle
weight that he
i 1

J,-VifiRnd not chance
losing his newly-Innerited prestige In
a return bout with the battered-face
Irishman.
Not only that, but Ortega's willing
ness to meet O'Dowd once more was so
marked that he actually signed up to
fight the St. Paul battler for less than
he was paid for the first fight. That
In itself la some -innovation In fight
circles. Of course, the Milwaukee arena,
before whom the fight will be staged
July 8, went far behind on the first
fight, and both boys wanted to help
the promoters recoup. That is laudable,
doubtless, but take it from our side that
more than ' sympathy and charity and
that is Ortega's belief that he can beat
O'Dpwd was necessary to bring the
two men together again.'
WILL BE GRUDGE BOUT
. Ortega hasn't at all shown apy fond
. ness for O'Dowd's statement that he,
O'Dowd, . would hare stopped Ortega In
the first fight if eight-ounce gloves had
been used, and that he, O'Dowd, would
certainly kayo the Mexican In another
start. Ortega feels about the same way
' regarding O'Dowd and has as many
complaints to make about It as has J
uuown. xne majority of fans who saw
, the fight' say O'Dowd shaded the Mex
ican and should have-been handed the
decision, Ortega believes he more than
..held O'Dowd even and was entitled to
the favor. He asserts that O'Dowd used,
in the first fight, foul tactics Which he,
Ortega, will prevent in a second meeting.
In view of these various claims It
looks like a rear old-fashioned grudge
' fight between the gladiators.- The gloves
to be used will be vn&nufactured f or the
occasion and will be put on the scales
to see that they do not' tip the beam at
' more than eight ounces. ..

Last season Babe made 29 homers in

Slow of late years in getting started
on his annual achievement of the great

star has been so tardy in getting under

Cobb has Justly . been considered the
greatest of all players. His feats have
so far overshadowed ihls nearest rivals
that fandom despaired of jever seeing a
youngster from the new school rise up
and take his place. j
4rWho will fill the shoes bf Cobb when

'. Ktlling the shoes of the; great Ty is
a Herculean assignment, but the Yankee
Babe not only promises-to do that, but
threatens to make a record that will
stamp pobb as the No. J of all time.1;
Cobb has batted over .300 in 14 of his
15 years career. ; He has been the lead
ing hitter of the Americar league in 12
out of 13 seasons. The peak of bis
greatness was achieved in I91S, when h
batted .420; his lowest mark was In 19 0,
when he finished wixb an average of .329
In 132? games of 14 seasons he has
stolen 768 bases. His speed. : skill and
daring on the base was a; big factor in
earning his sobriquet as. j'The Great.
The same fleetness of foot made him the
star fielder of the league. !
A great record he has made, but the
Babe has a record himself-!
