The laottwo rounds were undoubt-

best to when advantage. In this
round Hack clearly outpointod the
Staten Islander and had Daly on the
run following three hard rights to

balance as he touched the fioor of
the ring with both gloves. The
crowd was "pulling" hard for neck.
In the final otann. gloves fiow thick

Young Mulligan of Norwaik.

In the curtain-raiser of the eve-

The bout was a good one for young-
sters. The decision met with the ap-

Nelson adherents Jsered and catcal-

_. Between tho second and semi-
final bouts of the night. the crowd
was given a real treat in the form of
a wrestling match between Nat. Pon-
dieton and Carl Vogel, both of New
York City. Pendleton threw Vogel
after 15 minutes and 54 seconds of
gruelling tussle with a headlock and
hip throw. Each wrestler was at
times during the bout in difficult
positions but managed to wriggle
free until the deciding fall. Pendle—

he would be willing to have his bar»

The proposed bout will be the first
in the Park City in close to two
months. hTe last fight in Bridgeport
was the mediocre card with Keeley

star bout. It was a poorly patron.

The comeback of Delaney is pleas-

his encounter with Palmer he is sure
to be an attraction in Bridgeport for

Pal Moran Is Favored
to Defeat Bernstein

NEW YORK. Aug. 7.-Pel Moran
is a slight favorite over Jack Bern-
stein in their ten-round battle it the
Velodrome next Wednesday night.
the latter of odds around sporting
circles laying 7 to 5 that the New
Orleans fiash will get the verdict.
Pal is e shifty sort f a person. but
is not any too fo of body punch-
ing end that is where Bernstein
shines. Jack is naturally left handed
and can pump that member to the
midsectlon with the best of them.
This match will be the final of
three ten-round bouts. Frankie
Jerome is the choice over Danny
Edwards in their bout and Kid Kap-
ien is a hot favorite over Tommy
Noble in the other. Sid Terris will
have to step his fastest to best Tony
Palmer in tho six-rounder. for Tony
put him down three times in their
last battle. finally losing a shade
decision. Palmer won his ‘.-~t ten
battles and may prove a surprise
Wednesday night.

For Brasscos Meet

BRIDGEPORT. Aug. 0. —- The
Bridgeport A. C. will enter a strong
teem in the Kevin Berry track end
field meet at Waterbury next Satur-
day eftq-noon. Coach Anderson ex-
pects to enter twenty men and two
relay teems. He has not selected
his squad as yet end will pick them
following Wednesday's practice.

The carnival staged by the club
recently was a huge success. The
exact proceeds are not known as yet
but it is thought that it will be near
5500. Anderson expects to make
definite announcement about the
proposed state elimination meet and
the Prudential girls duel meet with
the Bridgeport A. C. today.

' To Be Retired

St. Louis. 'Aug. 5.—Cherleo Hollo-
cher. shortstop and captain of the
Chicago National League team. who
retired several days ago for the re-
mainder of the season because of
bed health. said at his parents' home
last night that he would submit his
application for voluntary retirement
to Commlsiouer K. M. Landis to-
morrew.

Hoilocher denied that he had left
the team with any ill feeling. He
aded he would be with the team
next year if his health permitted him
to take up baseball again.

 

 

 

 

 

Whetcha think of the fights last
night. or maybe you didn't go?

I saw my old friend Cal Ender at
the ringside, He had on a disguise
but everyone at the ringside knew
that it was him.

Cal was in the ring once himself.
but he didn't stay long. When he
entw out he didn't know a thing
about it. He was. carried out. and
then took a ride in a little black as-
oilno buggy with gold letters on the
side.

career of Cells Ender. the one punch
fighter.

o o o

He was called a one punch fighter.
because there was'only one ‘punch
landed in his whole ring-career and
he caught it right square on the Jew.
Then curtains for Cal.

Young Mulligan. the local scrap-
per. had very little trouble. with
Rrankie Aheern lest eveni’ng. He
led all of the way. Aheern said to
his friends after .tho fight that it
would be a different. story the next
time that the; fought. but I don’t
think so. He was outclassed.

and Wagner did in the old days.

American League pitchers are
having a lot of trouble with \lanush.
They find it mighty hard to pitch
to him. Eddie Rommel. the pitching
ace of the Athletics. believes that
hlanush is one of the best batters in
the leagues because he has fir pitch-
er guessing all the time. Rommel
says he threw everything he had in
his bag of tricks and Manush hit
each and. every one._even going so
far as to step out and clout a waste
pitch.

has improved in his, fielding. and
in his base running; There are six
other memlx rs of the hlanush family

has the ace in Heinie. '

the pace was too fast for him do-

Ev Cal Butler.

After breathing nine tons of resin
and two quarts of talcum powder.
we are just able to write the eultath
of the battle inst evening. There
were a good many customers in the
arena when the lambs were lead into
the slaughter.

First we. had the popular Johnny
Nelson who was defeated ‘by me
Pedro. the Valentino of the ring. and
from the way they threw water at
the fighters. it's plain to be seen
that the notice of the .Stasuf‘ord
Water Company to save water was
never‘ read.

The thing that got us sore was on
running the car in they charged 35
cents for parking and the Henry was
only worth 29 cents. still we paid it
and that's all there was to it.

If you think‘it's an easy life to sit
down in the observation pit writing
about the fight as'it goes on. with a
couple of fellows. throwing things at
each other. liable to take a. seat in
your lap. Well try it sometime.

The referee lost the dechion when
he gave it to Young Pedro. at least
that's the way it seemed from where
we set. I,

The next was a sad tale of sub-
stitution. Ginty it. seems. couldn't
live on the money he was to get so
want on a strike and a young chap
named Moore fought Hall to a
stand-still. Canada was brought
much nearer to the U. S. In fact.
we don't know whether it was
Moore's fighting that made him so
popular. or the fact that he comes
from the land of N. P. —-No Ro-
hibitiou.

that we didn't have some in the first

NEW YORK. Aug. 5.—Bennr
Renard. world's lightweight chem-
pion. will defend his title. Septem-
ber 5, millet Johnny Dundee.
world's featherweight champion. at
the Yankee stadium. under the
sample’s ‘of ‘the Cromwell A. C..
Promoter and Matchmaker Jimmy
Johnston announced this morning.
Dundee has already been signed for
the bout and Leonard's signature.
or that of his manager.
Billy Gibson. will be written to the
articles some time today. Johnston
announced.

The closing of the match between
Menard and Dundee is not expected
to interfere with Tex Richard's plans
for staging a contest with Charley
White. of Chicago. in the role of
challenger for Leonard's title. Gib-
son said today. There seems to be
some confusion regarding the date of
the Leonard-White affair. and its
location.

The last word from Rickard was
that August 81 had praticaily been
settled upon for the date. with the
place undecided. but Jersey City the
probable location. Johnson on):
that the Leonard-White match will
not take place until late in Septem-
ber. or after both the Leonard-Dun-
dee and the Dempsey-Firpo matches
are out of the way.

Gibson maintains that he wants
to get both the Dundee and the
White matches in before the out-
door season is over.

“That. suits me."
ton.

agrees Johns-
"but Dundee comes first. i
have the place. the time and the
fighters. The scale of prices will
be $1 to 8l5. The show will draw at
least $200,000."

Johnston was reported to be bid-
ding for the LeonardAVhite match.
but this he denied today.

‘ Dundee Cmfldent.

"Dundee's the card for Benny
today." rays Jimmy. “Dundee
has the following. Dundee is n

world's champion. and won his title
in a sensational bout after a rema rk.
able career. He has had eight bouto
with Leonard and he has never been
knocked out by him. Everylime
they met the bout was a corker. l
promoted the first one. in 1915. Roth
men were on the floor in this scrap.

"Dundee is absolutely certain he
can defeat Leonard. He actually
jumped at the chance to sign when
I suggested the match. lie told me
that he has 525.000 of his own man-
e_v he will hot ihat Leonard cannot
knock him out .nnd as much more
that he will take. the decision from
Benny. I never saw a men more
confident in my life.

started the. war showed itself when
Carl refused to shake hands with
his victor.

This naturally brought forth the
ancient order of apple sauce on
Carl's head. Thinking that Carl had
a special reason for not showing
ring courtesy. we interviewed him in
lidrcosing room.

"Was there. some reason for not
shaking hands with him." we asked.
