EDWARDS AND SHEDRICK !
EVEN IN SLASHING FlGHTj
Tiger Thomas to Fight Edwards.
(By Elmer Bcoker)
wr~
* m-~
Billie Edwards, who was to fight
the well-known Tiger Thomas, held
on Monday night, was forced to a
draw by Richard Shedrick.
When the announcer announced
that on account of Thomas having
a bad eye he could and would not
appear on the card in the final for
the afternoon, the crowd began to
show dissatisfaction.
The Tiger was unable to fight him
self, but the crowd who witnessed
the fight between Shedrick and Ed
wards can tell you that Edwards
had all he wanted and some more,
too. This boy Shedrick, I am forced
to admit, is no slouch. The style
of fighting he has is clean-cut, and
he mixes it. Edwards, although held
his own, somehow 1 believe if the
fight had lasted longer, I would have
a different story to tell you. Sev
eral times the crowd was almost lift
ed off its feet when the two boys
began to mix it up. It was an
nounced that Tiger Thomas would
meet the winner here sometime soon.
The first preliminary bout was
fought between Joe Steward ana
Andrew Shepherd, both weighing
. - ...... 1. .. v._:_.r, ....
lOd jivuuuo cavu,
Joe Steward received the decision.
The second bout was fought be
tween Kid Moody, of New \ork, and
Johnnie Lewis, of this city, going
six rounds. This was a clean-cut
fight, both boys seeming, to have
been in fine shape. The" decision
was given to Lewis, who well de
served it.
The semi-final was fought between
Young Sam Langford, of Baltimore,
and Philadelphia Kid, a spectacular
eight round bout, with each fighter
battling the other blow for blow.
Philadelphia Kid received the de
cision.
The fighting card was presented
by the Monarch Athletic Club, Mr.
James T. Fry, president, who has
been promoting- the bouts for son e
time.
Final bout by rounds:
Round 1: They grab each other’s
hands and began to mix things al
most at the opening of the round.
Edwards’ right to body. They clinch.
Shedrick’s right and left to body.
Clinch. Edwards’ right to head.
Both pummeled each other as they
went into a clinch. Bell. Round a
tie.
Round 2: They danced about the
ring, each pounding and blocking the
other’s blows. They clinch. Ed-,
wards opens with a right and left
to the body as they go out of the
clinch. Shedrick returns a hard left
to Edwards’ face and a straight right
t othe head. They go into a clinch.
Shedrick pounds Edwards over the
head. Edwards returns with a short
jab to the face and two hard rights
to the body. Bell. Round a tie.
Round 3: They both rush and
begin to pass blow for blow. Shed
rick sends two hard blows to Ed
wards’ face and a short right to the
body as they go into a clinch. Shed
rick sends two hard rights in rapid
succession to Edwards’ body. Bell.
Shedrick’s round.
Round 4: They dance around the
ring. Edwards opens with a hard
right to the face and a jab to the
jaw. They went into a clinch. Ed
wards sends a hard right to the body
as the referee broke them out of a
clinch. Bell. Edwards’ round.
Round 5: They rushed each other
but neither seemed to be able to land
a blow. They clinch. They pass at
each other, but miss. Shedrick miss
ed a hard right and Edwards also
missed a return blow, which causes
the two fighters to almost fall. Shed
rick landed a straight right to Ed
wards’ body. Edwards pushed his
left out and met Shedrick’s jaw. Bell,
Round a tie.
Round 6: Edwards opens witli
a right and left to the body. Shed
rick missed a hard left to the chin,
Edwards landed right and left tc
body and Shedrick went down to a
count of six. Shedrick sprang tc
his feet but seemingly weakened,

MOB MURDERS DENOUNCED B\
DAILY PAPERS
I _
Recent Events In Taxes and Florida
, Flayed by Southern Editors
Atlanta, Ga., Dec. 2.—Daily paper
of the South are condemning in un
measured terms the recent outbreak
of mob violence in this section, re
suiting in the lynching of a white
' man at Eastland, Texas, and of Will
Larkins, colored, at Quincy, Florida
Of the Florida lynching the Miam
Herald says:
‘‘Florida has aguin been shamec
by the conduct of a mob and the
failure of authority. Another lynch
ing has been added to the disgracefu
list, making three in this State oui
of five in the entire South this year
A protest has been sent to Gov
Doyle E. Carlton, and it is said at
investigation is being made. Bu
the time to act was before, and no
after. The heinous crime of Larkins
if guilty, deserved death, but deatl
at the hands of the State. The rul<
of the mob and the collapse o:
authority are a graver danger t<
society than the act of an in
dividual.”
1 Commenting on The other inciden
and on the general subject of lynch
ing the Dallas News, leading dail:
paper of the Southwest, says:
‘•There is no defuse. Lynching i:
doubly cowardly. First, because th<
exaction of the life of an unarmed
imprisoned, helpless convict by i
crowd of armed men outrages everj
sense o ffair play. Second, becausi
past experience proves that no lega
risk is incurred by local mobs. It:
members seldom fear prosecution am
rarely conviction. The shocking
event at Eastland was an act of pub
lie fury. But it represents neithei
courage nor justice.”
DO YOU KNOW HIM?
Mr. Robert Minor, 126 W. Four
teenth Street, Winston-Salem, N. C.
is very anxious to get in touch with
Rev. George W. Roane, who resided
