she had requested firemen to re-
move Lcster Fenwick. 11. from be-
hind the counter of a Monte Carlo

It is claimed by the firemen that
'the carnival is as free from taint.

By NORMAN 1!). BROWN.
-Kld McCoy. drawn into the lime-
light through his shooting affray in
Los Angeles. had a. ring career
unique in many ways.

While the only real champion-
ship he ever hold was that of the
welter division he won his greatest
fame as a. middleweight and heavy-
weight. In the years that have rolled
by. however. McCoy has many times
been called ex-mlddlewelght champ.

The most authentic records give
the facts regarding the two divisions
about as follows:

In 1894 Tommy Rydn fought'
Billy Smith, the "Mysterious Billy"
twice. The first fight went :0
rounds to a decision in Ryan‘s fa—
vor. The second was stopped in
the eighteenth by the police. Ev-
perm called it a. draw technically
but Ryan was recognised as the
welterweight champ. Smith had
claimed the title several years after
Paddy Duffy had retired with it.

Two years later—March 2, 1896.
McCoy and Ryan met at Mubeth.
L. 1.. and McCoy knocked Ryan out
in the fifteenth round. There was
talk that McCoy dr'ew Ryan into
the match on the plea that he (Mc-
COY) Was ill and needed the money.
whereas he really was fit and con-
fident of defeating the champ.
That. however, was never verified.

But both Ryan and McCoy were
still taking on weight and the next
your both branched out as middle-
weights and claimed the title Curly
Bob l-‘iizalmmons had put, on the
shelf to enter the 1108\3'Wui3ht di-
vision.

ly rcCOg-uized as the middleweight
champion. Incidentally lb: .lwo

blood.

the three contests that followed
were 'four of the most interesting
battles llcCoy had. “

That. first one was a lac-decision
affair of four rounds. Three
years later the Kid‘ bean Choyn~

year they fought an
eight-round draw. Then. on Jan.

McCoy's friends point out with
pride that the Kid also licked '
George La. Blanche. the fighting
marine, who had knocked out no
less a personage than the one and
only “Non Pareil." Jack Dempsey.
The one regret many old ring fans
had when McCoy retired. was that
he had drawn the color line when

colored fighters the game has.ever

known. challenged him while the
