He figures a quick victory will make him a big favorite in Portland and 'he's after a scrap with Joe Gorman. f Nunes thinks that he will stick the limit with Kramer, which, if Be does, will be a feather in his bonnet. The Sacramento boy is . in top conditio. for the contest. He knows that Kra mer is clever and a hard hitter and has not wasted ; any time in putting himself in shape for the battle. .

Although he la b-irred from boxlne in this state and "deprived! of his title by a ruling of the present boxing commission. Johnny Kiibane, featherweight cham pion ef the 'world, is said to have signed With the Republic A. C tor a ii-rouna decision fight with Eugene Criqui. the featherweight champion of Europe. The match is eet tentatively for May SO, 93, at the PolV grounds. Tom O Kotirke, old-time nanaier oi fighters, and until a few months ago a member .of the New. York commission. announces that he obtained Kilbane's name to a contract. It is believed mat O'Rour.ke offered Kiibane a guarantee of . close to , $100,000, ; as the Polo grounds:, would' easily bold enough to pay Kiibane his price and leave a few francs for ther French challenger.. Kiibane has not fought in the Bast since the summer of 1919, when he knocked out Frankie Burns, the Jersey sweeter, before 65,000 . people at Jersey City, -the. largest crowd which ever wit nessed a prize fight up to that time. Johnny's last match was with Danny Frueh, ' the . v Englishman, whom he kicked to the, floor in Cleveland for a tnoekout" victory. ' MCrfajui recently knocked ' out Billy Mathews, .the English featherweight champion, in the i?th round of a fight in Paris, 'r.y ,.: : :. . Tfte.present boxing commission prob- ablv would not permit Kiibane to drop in And obtain such a large purse in New Tbrk. ' However, the present commis sion probably will have nothing to say about the ruling of the game by May 30. as Gvernor-lect Al Smith Will be m office by then with a new commis sion. - - - " ,.

Cobb Is annoyed' by , the protest of New York baseball writers against the action of Ban .Johnson in -giving the "Jewel of Georgia" a hit that makes him a paper .400 hitter for 1922. Cobb forgets fans are not interested in the scoring for 1921. That was last year. They are interested in the scor ing for 1922. Ba.n Johnson took no action on the scoring of 1921. Perhaps that was the reason Cobb did not hit, .400. . He is a .400 hitter in the 'records of 1922 only by grace of Ban Johnaon. It is not a proud way of earning rebsrds. POOB ABT ''" Arthur Fletcher, fine, honest ball player, "will attempt to manage the Phillies next season. He has accepted the job Hugo Bezdek had sense enough to decline. At the close of the 1923 season Fletcher will be dismissed, spirit brok en, disillusioned. A manager cannot make a baseball club without ball players.- The owners of the Phillies will not provide their manager with proper material. YE TE BAIT SHOOTS WELL A. W. B rower of Wappinger Falls sends interesting news. On November 26 the Wappinger Falls Rifle club held a shoot. Some remarkable work was done by CoL Henry F. Clark of Pough-keepsie. Colonel Clark is 84. He was one of the high score riflemen - who shot against the Irish team about 50 years ago. The shooting at Wappinger Falls was at the 600-yard range, 20 shots wito a possible 100. Colonel Clark scored 16 bulls eyes and four close fours. His score was 96. i Foreign nations should know that if all the men under 40 in American were killed off In the war, we would still be able to produce an army of riflemen oil the order of Col. Clark.
