Coliseum, New - York, May 23.-- Smiling: "Keed'" Chocolate, the battling bon-bon of the .bantam- weights, waged a furious struggle last night to stamp himself as the outstanding gladiator of a cham- pionless division but failed to con- vince entirely a crowd of 18,000 jammed in Jess McMahon's big boxing barn that he is the master of Fidel Labarba. The curly-headed little Italian from Los Angeles, a former fly- weight champion» and student at Stanford university, lost the deci- sion to the dazzling negro after a betting fest that swirled. and eddied to rising volleys of cheers through the Coliseum ring for tem hectic rounds, When the battle was over, and the colorful negro's record of 147 battes without defeat still was unbroken, the cheers still were for the courageous, rushing slug- ger from the Pacific coast. The voice of the crowd and the opinion of a majority of ringside draw, and possibly the decision be. cause of aggressiveness that never courage, and a busy was never by the negro's heavier weapons. The Associated Press score sheet gave Chocolate four rounds, Labaraba four and two even. One judge voted the match a draw; the other and the referee awarded the decision to Chocolate. No Title Involved It was a battle that lived up to advance notices, a bitter strug- gle that was destined up to this afternoon to produce a champion capable of recognition by the New athletic commission.

This year there is a newly established race for the Canadian honors. Although Canada has always been to the fore so far as this game is concerned, it has never declared a national champion. In 1894 the Hamilton Herald ran the first road race in the Dominion, two years before the Greek government decided to revive the Olympic games and three years before the running of the first Boston Marathon. Athletes. will be keen to have their names go down on record as par- ticipating in the first national championship road race. The event will un- doubtedly bring ofit every marathomer of any account in Canada and also many from the United States. The race will be run on the 24th' of May in Toronto, The Fort Williams Times-Journal is conducting a 10-mile road race on the same day..

The Oshawa Ladies League moguls drew a little nearer the solution to their over extended grief last night when' at the meeting they were given a hint regarding a diamond in the city here that is nearing com- pletion and which will be offered as a place to play all Oshawa teams home games, The location of the newly found diamond was not disclosed at the meeting but that should be a cinch as any one interested enough has only to cruise around the city parks looking for a diamond that has the appear- ance of being in a state of repair. .

Smith was five strokes ahead of the home professional, "Aubrey Boomer, who wrote an immortal page in golf history during the third round this morning when he shot a round of 61, ten strokes under par and the lowest. medal 'round ever. re- corded om a championship golf course of the length of St. Cloud. No one else in the field of 70 competitors was anywhere near Smith's total. Gene Sarazen fin- ished third with "a score of "285, and Johnny Farrell was fourth at 290. Andre Boyer's 292 placed him fitht, while Walter Hagen and Henry Cotton tied for sixth with scores of 293. There never has been anything quite like the two days of golf at St. Cloud which gave Smith his first victory in Europe.

This same youthfulness enables "Smoke" te play at top speed without a let.up and that too, is a thing that all fans demand of a game in any line of sport, and this same top speed is one of the things that make for the popularity of the local senior teain. Though just out of junior ranks, 'Smoke" has an' opponent in the game that takes much pleasurg in being opposite the worthy Fox. This player is also one of the fast men in the game, and he, too, plays i» the Brampton team, his name Jack Worthy." Worthy is a rival to "Smoke" for speed and all round playing, which makes both of these senior stars look upon the coming j Hilts with pleasurable anticipation. | After seeing "Smoke" go, tne Ifans will also look upon the Bramp- ton game in the same light and they will be hard to keep away from the scene of the struggle.
