The an- mouncement was made last week in Portal, North Dakota, by the former Canadian champion, who, with Man- ager Eddie 1s eparring partner, Jack Feeney, is on his way back from Calgary. Allen canceled dates at both Win- nipeg and Hibbing, Minn., and has fully decided to quit the ring for- ever: . Allen, who is but 27 years old, at one time had. every. prospect of be- coming world s champion in the featherweight class. He has been fighting in the professional class for four years. During that time when at welght and in condition he won some notable victories and the praise Sf the- foremost -ring -experts -of-the country. Disinclination to train to take off weight made him fight in the lightweight class and although be aid not properly belong there he made a good showing for a time. In- creased wight lessened his speed and he did not have the strength nec- essary to meet the 6trong boys in that class and when he was operated upon for appendicitis he never again made the same showing. Allen, while im the game, made many friends all over the country beeusd of his gentlemanly conduct and fair tactics, who will be sorry to see him give up, but at the same time pleased to know that he realizes his own fail- ing powers. Allen will probably go into busi- ness in Ottawa, Canada, his native town, where he has had good induce- ments offered for a business career. Paphe Went Up Like 34-HOUR MOTOR CYCLE RACE.

For. ind Sweeney; Wheatley Up like a rocket aad down like a stick summarizes the career of Bil- Climbing up to the middleweight championship of the world, his des- cent to a second-rater, without ap- parent cause, was quite as rapid as his rise. Tive years ago Tony Ca- pont was the best middleweight of the west, Papke fought him twice in 1907, the first time to a draw, but in the second meeting the German put the Italian away in two rounds. Pap- ke, under the wings of T. E. Jones, at whose club in LaSalle, ill., he had first fought, invaded the east five years ago this month. Billy easily defeated Tommy Sullivan near Bos- ton, and got a decision over Terry Martin and Pat O Keefe at Philadel- phia, Papke wound-up.the year 1907 by fighting Hugo Kelly at Milwaukee. Kelly was perhaps the best man he had fought up to that time. He had twice defeated Tommy Burns, the Canadian heavyweight who was once world s champion, and claimed the middleweight title, although this claim was hardly justified by the records. In any event, the Papke- Kelly affair was advertised as for the middleweight title; Tt went ten rounds, with something doing every second, and the referee called in draw. In March of 1908 Papke and the Italian were again matched in Milwaukee, and again they went ten rounds to a draw, with neither man having shown any the better of the argument, In June of 1908 Papke fought the first of his memorable battles with Stanley Ketchel, at Mil- waukee, and lost the - decision. Papke then went to Boston, where he offered to meet any two men of his weight that could be selected excep- ting only, Ketohel and Hugo Kelly, in one evening. The fighters pitted as- ainst him were Frank Mantell, of Pawtucket, R. I, and Johnny Carrol of Brooklyn. To the nude eye the Tilinois lad seemed up against it, for Carroll had knocked out Sailor Burke and Mantell had defeated Honey Mellody.. Papke took on Carroll first and the lad from the City of Church: laster less than two rounds. Billy was still fresh and wearing the smile that won't come off when he faced Mantell. The man from Pawtucket was so outclassed that the referee stopped the bout in the first inning. Papke then made his bow in New York by defeating Sailor Burke in six rounds. The story of Papke s career will be oncluded tomorrow. The fruit is all coming our way. We have everything at lowest: price. Enquiries solicited by day or night. Phone 708. E. B.

Protes- sionalism knows ho athlete within ranks whose s0l object is not the gathering of the shekels. But gath- ering the coin does-not seem to be the sole object of Joe Bayley, the Vic e title of Canadian lightweight - champion. Joe first and only thought seems to be how to retain his Inurels. Itis doubtful f any boxers in Am- erica could prove the drawing card that Barrieau and, Bayley would, yet the Victoria boxer does not relish the dea of steppiig into the squared circle with the amateur champion. He has on and off signified his will- Iingness to meet Barricau, but when his talk s taken sorlously and an effort is made to bring the boys to- gether,- Joe shows symptoms of faintheartedness. Get a reputation, Is a favorite ex- pression of the Victoria boxer, in speaking of Erni Barricau, but why should Beyley worry about Barrieau s past perfomances so long as he as champion should get the price for a match? A match between Beyley and Barrieau would no doubt prove a great drawing card, but from pre- sent indications the match seems a long way off. Last night Chester McIntyre re- ceived a wire from W. A. Davis, phys- feal director of the.J. B. A. A., stating that he was willing to give Barrleau a match with Al Jeffs, a Victoria boxer, on October-31.

He lost that battle ii the first round, although he stayed the full ten inn- ings. The Iilinols Thunderbolt had no sooner entered the ring than the boy from the west sent over his south paw in a terrible punch to the jaw, sending Billy sprawling to the ground. Billy, with a look of sur prise on his face, promptly came up again, but the blow had deprived him of all his steam. Ho. slam-banged his way through the remaining nine rounds, but his head was out of com- mission, and he scarcely knew whe- ther he was a-foot or a-horseback. That slugging match w; decidedly Ketchel s bout, buf the supporters of the Illinois boy declared he had lost on a fluke, and clamored for another chance. This time Vernon, Cal., was the scene of the battle, and Sept. 7, 1908: was the date. This was Labor Day, and a big crowd filled Tom Carey's arena. The middleweight title now cleaziy rested between Pap- ke and Ketchel, and the victor conld rightfully deciare his right to it. Tens of thousands of dollars were wagered on the result. Papke was returned the winner by exactly the same methods that Ketchel had used in Milwaukee. The Mlinols boy barely touched Stanley's glove, and then sent. hard right to Ketchel s jaw. The Assassin went down Ike a log and the referee had tolled off seven he struggled to his feet. Papke sent over another, and this time Jim Jef- fries, who was acting as referee, counted nine before Ketchell was able to stagger up. As Papke had been defeated with the first blow in the first Ketchel-Papke battle, so was Ketchel now given a dose of his own medicine.

In the twelfth round Jeffries put an end to the slaughter, and Papke became recog- nized middleweight champion of the world, He did not long retain the title, for in the following November, at Colma, he was knocked out by Ketchel In the eleventh round. For a fourth time they met, July 5, 1909, also at Coma, and Ketchel won in twenty: rounds.
