YORK. Jan. 12.—For the

country. an international rank-.
of the "first ten”.' in each of

list an annual feature along the

.Eecognized champions head all
Ward’s selections except the ,light

ed only fourth. Top position is giv-
on to Gene Tunney. American 175-
pound king. with Young Stribling.

(6nd and Kid Norfolk, New York

{The sensational climb of Tiger
Flowers. Atlanta Negro. who is rank-
“ed next to Champion Hary Greb in
ins middleweight division: is an out-
landing feature of the list, while
other important developments of
192'! are listed by Rickard as fol-
lows: .
’ “1. The collapse of Firpo through
'dofeats of Wills and Weinert and
=jthe rise of Romero and the further
development of Gibbons in the
gheavyweight class. .
= 9‘2. The success of. Young Strib-
lung who may have a lot to say in
boxing during 1925.
‘ “3. The rise of Sid Terris as a
runner-up in the lightweight class.
“4. The decline of Johnny Dundee
and his resignation of the world’s
:featherwelght championship due to
inability to make the weight."
Rickard gives only complimentary
positions to Jack Dempsey and
"Benny Leonard at the top of the
~heavyweight and lightweight divi-
sion's. respectively, because of their
,inactivity during 1924. Dempsey
did not defend his title at all. while
illeonard was injured in his only im-
'portant match, a bout at Cleveland
with Pal Morgan. Rickard makes it
plain his rankings are based on last
year's actual performances and, on
this basis, puts Harry W’ilis at the
’top of the heavyweights and Terris
first among the lightweights.‘
Ranks Gibbons
Rickard ranks Tom Gibbons next
to W'ills among the heavyweights be-
cause he feels that Gibbons“ money-
-niaking powers are in that division
rather than in the light heavyweight
‘ ranks where he has done consider-
able fighting. '
“Latin-America's bid for p_ugilist
fame is reflected in the assignment
_' ,of five Central and South Americans
to’ place on the list. Luis Firpo. who
was considered Dempsey's closest
rive! at the end of 1923 drops to
seventh place in the 1924 list. while
.Quintin Romero, Chilean heavy-
' weight is placed fifth. Jose Lombar-
do of Panama, fifth among the
entherweights. and Al Brown. Pana-
jna fiyweight, third in his division.
Eight nationalities are represented
.in Bickard's list. The United States
has the bulk of representatives with
76'. while the Philippines and Eng-
.land are each represented with three
.‘ fighters; Chile, Panama and Canada
'. with two each, and Argentine and
Italy with one each. -

(By NORMAN E. BROWN)
This year of 1925 marks. in a
general way, the fiftieth anniversary
of what may well be termed the
MODERN SPORT ERA. For this
reason. if for no other one, it will be
an epochlai one, despite the fact
that the calendar does not. at this
time indicate any coming events
which will make the year as con-
spicuous as some of the preceding
ones.-'
is drawing. to a close. is a distinct
period in athletic history in the
United States. It dates definitely
from the time that the major sports.
as we now know them, were placed
on 'their present footing? generally
speaking.
The basic foundations for base-
ball, football and tennis as we now
recognize the games. were laid Just
half a century ago.
Prize fighting was emerging from
its bare knuckle days to the present
order.
The ground work on which golf
was raised to a major sport was
being laid then.
The sporting world in general had
then ’complcteiy recovered from
the inroads of war (the conflict be-
tween the north and the south) just
as it has today from the upheaval
due to the world war.
Associations and styles of play
were being formed fifty years ago,
which have held through the inter-
vening years.
Baseball is indicative of the. re-
volutionary changes in sport which
marked the beginning of this Mod-
ern era. The diamond sport was
placed on the firm foundation on
whichait has rested since in'1876
when the National League was or-
ganized. The year previous to that
the first recognized no-hit games.

were hurled. The game was startled
by the introduction. about that
time, of the feat of sliding into a
base. The name of the man who in-
.troduced this so-oalled daring no-
velty at the time, is interesting.
The real change in the playing
formation of the baseball team was
instituted about the time when
one, of the game's greatest stars of
all time introduced the shortstop. '

holder. The names of the men who
fought that memorable battle at St.
Louis have long since been forgotten.
The game of tennis, introduced in
1874 at Newport, was. in 1875, the
fad of the idle rich. scoffed at by
those who wanted “red blooded"
sport. In their scofflng they 'were
blind to its possibilities.
In football Yale had played some-
thing of the kind for some twonty
years but it was not until 1878 that

years later—dust 80 years ago—this
code altered to make the game

Few sportsmen and followers of
athletics realised‘in those days that
they were laying the ground-work
’for an age in ‘sport‘that would carry
every branch of athletics to interna-
tionalpr‘oportions and develop a
host of stars who. by their greatness,
would become immortals.

in many days. ‘
The movement of the foregoing
list from active to inactive athletic
ranks was disclosed yesterday by
Hugh Hirshon. manager ‘of the Wil-
co A. A. games. which are to be
concluded ,on Feb. 7‘. His informa-
tion came first hand from the non

announcement of retirement came

pete in the Wiico games. In two in-
stances s switch from imateur to

in others. the pressure of business or
missionary work; in still others. the
decision that they had passed their

‘ Perhaps the most telling blow was
delivered by Fred Tootell‘s message.
that he has accepted the post of ath-
letic coach at Mercersberg Academy.
Tootoll. who became intercolleg-
iate and national hammer throw

position is Tom Liebafie is former
national discuss throw title‘and re-
cord‘ holder and was a scorer in the
Olympic Games last summer. His
present occupation is that of usin-

The proposed retirement of Bay
Buker brings to light a most inter-
esting story. for it seems Ray and his
twin brother Ralph. who also gain-
ed fame as a track athlete, are short-
ly to depart this country to engage
in missionary work in South Amer-
lea.
The Buker twins were classmates
- at Bates College and there gained
their first recognition as exception-
al track athletes. They were about
equal in ability over distances of
one mile to two miles. but in order
to bring a maximum of scoring
points to their college Ray devoted
himself to the two mile run and
Ralph to the bus mile run, and their
names ssrespective winners of those
events show twice in lho'records of

In extolling the praises of Mc-
Graw as manager of a team that has
made such a fine record in the Na-
tional We; the foot almost in-
variably is overlooked that he made
one of the most brilliant campaigns
in his career when he was manager
for Baitiinon in earlier years. There
came a time when the Baltimore
club. chagrined at the poor patron-
age that was accorded at home and
fearing the city had lost its interest
in baseball. decided to transfer
most of its players to Brooklyn.
. It was also decided that Hanlon.
manager of fthe Baltimore team at
that time. shouldgn with the play-
ers to Brooklyn. and assume the
management of the Brooklyns. Mc-
Grnw elected to remain in Baltimore
for reasons know to himself and
when be cast his lot with 'the Bani-
morees he was made manager. The
players who were left to him natur-
ally enough did not represent the
best that Baltimore had and he was
compelled to do what he could to
pick up others who would be of as~
slstance to him. The team that was
left behind. when Hanlon departed
from.the city of Orioles and went
