9 THE OGDEN STAjnDAKD, OGDEN, UTAH: THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 1915.;: ' t . l
I SPORTS
LARGE CROWD SEES A
I WRESTLING MATCH
I :0F GREAT MERIT
Hi Giving his opponent, "Sam Clapllam,,
H the advantage of C 1-2 pounds o
H brawn and muscle, Jack Harbertsou
j of Ogdeh last night won his second
K victory from the Englishman, getting
H two consecutive falls in S9 1-2 min-
; utes. The first -fall was secured in
i 63 1-2 minutes with a hammerlock
Hj and w'ristr hold and the second in 26
H minutes, with a double hammerlock.
H "I've been beaten by a better man,"
H, said Clapham, in a brief speech foi-
Hi lowing his defea't- "You pcoplo do
i not fully appreciate what a wonder-
Hi ful wrestler you have here. I have
Hj wrestled the world over and I don't
H1 believe there is a better middleweight
H' than "Harbortaon. He should go
m away from home now and meet some
H; of the other fast wrestlers of his
Hj class. I did tho" best I could with
H ' him and tonight you people have seen
1 '. a match that would have drawn a rec-
H I ord breaking crowd In the east. As
ij for me, this is- the last time in my
H, wrestling career that I will make
1 weight." ,
H!i Though decisively defeated, Clap-
H! ham showed himself to bo the pos-
H; ' sessor of wonderful strength, great en-
H 1 durance and a thoroughly sportsman-
H'i1 like spirit In Harbertson's opinion
i! and that of the local fans ho is by
H ' far the strongest opponent the Ogden
Hj man has ever wrestled.
!' In the bout last night, Harbertson
Ha displayed best mat generalship and
HI science, both on offense and defense
H f: 4 that the local fans have yet seen. His
H;j footwork was remarkable and he
m ( slipped some punishing holds on Clap-
H ' ham that he was not before known
H;! to possess. For enduring the excru-
H, J elating pains and getting out of most
Hjj of these holds, Clapham won the
H praiso of virtually the entire crowd,
Hi and that he was finally forced to ac-
Hlj cede the first fall to Harbertson in
Hl ' lieu of getting hlsliand or wrist bro-
B ken, was considered no discredit
Hl ! Jack also proved himself a true
H'lj! sport, when he refused to accept a.
Hj fall given him by Referee Carl Poul-
Hl ter at the 45-minute mark, when the
H' decision was a palpable mistake. All
ii honor was given him in his final vlc-
B f tory and the fans are now looking for
H ' Pet Brown, Mike Yokel, Miller, Geh-
J f ring or "Waino Ketonen to come out
B ' and try conclusions with him.
B ' The big bout was announced at
1 9:20 o'clock. Promoter "Rube" Saun-
1 1 ders introducing Carl Poulter as ref-
K' erco and the latter announced the
B i event. Both Harbertson and Clap-
B F ham were roundly cheered when they
Bili came on the mat and the crowd then
settled back in keen anticipation of
I a fast "go.', The men went to the
middle at 9:22 and for six minutes
worked head to head. At 9:26, Clap
ham went behind and Immediately
tried for a toe hold. Harbertson
Hit, was wary, however, and quickly
B - showed the fans that he was going
B . to take good caro of his pedal extreiu-
B ; itlcs and also that he was not going
B t to be the under man for any length
of time.
B ' A Great Struggle,
Hjj Inside, of two minutes, both men
B, were on their feet again and the mid-
B I' dleweight secured a punishing head
B ji hold and made Clapham wince for
B n several seconds. Sam, however, broke
B out of Jack's grip and again took the
B !j offensive on the mat. From his un-
B jl der position, Harbertson secured a
fl r victorious to hold and after a hard
B j struggle reversed positions with his
H opponent A few seconds later, the
H , Englishman was virtually tied up in
!H I a knot, but the proximity of the ropes
B It helped him out of it and at 9:37
o'clock both men were on their feet
In the- middle of the mat. A min
ute of sparring was closed whon Har
bertson with a lightnlnglike flash of
speed caught Clapham's leg and went
n i behind, on the mat. The latter put
H ' up a fine defense at thlB, point and
H soon changed places with the local,
H ; man.
H f; Harbertson's next move was to se
H j cure a hold on his opponent's arm
H from his under position, this being,
H L up to the time, the most punishing
H g hold ever seen on a local mat In
H I withstanding it, Clapham showed
H I wonderful powers of endurance and
H 5 finally bringing his full strength into
H play, broke away and worked to his
H feet At 9:42, the local man again
a !l went behind and a few seconds was
H flipped over. Both men changed po-
H sitions in the next two minutes, with
D- Harbertson again winding up on top.
I For three minutes, he held the advantages-
and then the Englishman
went behind, getting an under, arm
J and head hold. Both got loglocks
and the tie-up was broken by Har-
j bertson's superior use of his feet Jack
t got under arm hold, but only held
H I it for a couple of seconds, Clapham
H j then flipping him over.
H Harbertson on Offensive.
H ' With the clock at 9:42, following
H a couple of minutes of sparring -with
j 5 again took the offensive. His ef-
l forts to secure an appreciable advan-
H tage were set at naught, when Clap-
j ham got a toe hold that he almost
H 8 worked for a fall. Here again Har-
H bertsou brought his left foot into play
H R and getting it under the Englishman's
H i chin, pushed until he broke the hold
H which was causing him excruciating
H pain. The crowd fully appreciated
H th? effort and greeted it with an en-
1 thusiastlc applause and cheers.
H I The next fifteen minutes was
H about evenly balanced, with the wres-
H (i tiers almost continuously changing
H II positions of, offense and defense, each
H 9 alternately seeurlng toe and head
m A holds and Harbertson again display-
H h lag defensive footwork,
H 1 At 9:58, Clapham bridged out of a
H V hammerlock and secured a similar
m K hold on the local man. This almoBt

fact, insisting that both of Harbert
son's shoulders were on the mat. The
preponderance of opinion, however,
was that the fall was not secured.
Within another second Harbertson
was entirely out of danger and had
reversed positions with his opponent.
In the next five minutes the honors
were "fifty-fifty" and then camo Ref
eree Poulter's big mistake, which al
most lost Harbertson the glory of a
clean victory. The local man wbb
working on Clapham with a reverse
body hold and had one of the Eng
lishmen's' shouldors down and was
slowly but surely pfessing him to a
fall. With Sam's other shoulder still
a good six inches in the clear, Poulter
slapped the local man on the back
and according to tho rules of the
game, Jack was entitled to the fall.
Tho decision drew a unanimous pro
test from the crowd and Harbertson,
realizing that a mistake had been
made, refused to accept it.
Hammer and Tongs.
His opportunity for a legitimate fall
at that point being broken, he went
for Clapham hammer and tongs and
tho two were soon tied up again. For
fifteen minutes, the gnit was almost
too fast to follow, both men putting
up a great exhibition. At 10:20, Har
bertson secured a body scissors and
head hold, but Clapham's strength
was too great to break and in a min
ute their positions were changed. Sam
took a wrist and arm hold but Har
bertson quickly worked out and took
tho offensive. Working fast, Jack
secured a hammerlock and wrist hold
and, seeing his opportunity loosened
up on the former and put all his pow
er into the latter. Fearing a broken
wrist, Clapham frantically pounded
the mat with his free haud in token
of defeat. Tho time was 1 hour 3 1-2
minutes.
Tho men went to the mat for tho
second fall at 10:42 o'clock and for
26 minutes the fans saw the fastest
wrestling ever staged in tho city for
the same length of time, Harbertson
being anxious to end the bout and
Clapham equally anxious to get the
second fall. It was strength and en
durance against science and speed
and the latter proved the superior as
sets. Time and ngaln, the English
man broke out of body scissors, ham
merlocks and reverse body holds,
hitherto thought unbreakable, but
Harbertson was always there to put
on another one. Both did some splen
did bridging that won cheers from
the crowd and their work throughout
the 26 minutes was highly spectacu
lar. At 11 '07, Harbertson secured a
body scissors and head hold that
proved tho beginning of the end.
From these holds he shifted to a ham
merlock and then to a double ham
merlock, holding Clapham's head and
shoulders as in a vise. The English
man's shoulder's went to the mat sim
ultaneously at 11:08 o'clock and Ref
eree Poulter slapped Harbertson on
the back, awarding him the second
fall and the bout.
Excellent Attendance.
The attendance last night was the
largest recorded at the Orpheum for
an event of the kind' since the Yokel
Harbertson bout and the attitude of
the fans was that of good sportB and
lovers of fair play. With regard to
tho mistake made by Referee Poulter,
It was clearly one of the head and not
of the heart, and Harbertson's subse
quent action In refusing to take ad
vantage of it, saved the referee as
well as himself from lasting censure.
Two fast preliminaries were staged,
tho first a draw, between Art Smalley
and Harlow Campbell and In the sec
ond, Scott Wallace won a decision
over "Kid" Irving. Harlan Payton
acted as referee. Terry Kellar, the
local youth who holds the world's
light-heavyweight boxing champion
ship was introduced to the fans and
was accorded an enthusiastic recep
tion. Tho announcement was also
made that Pete Visser, tho Ogden
heavyweight wrestler, had received a
challenge from Chief Montour, an In
dian heavyweight wrestler, and that a
bout between the two would probably
be staged in the near future.
The" program last night was ably
handled by Promoter R. H. Saunders,
no unnecessary delays being noted.
"I never laughed so much in
all my life," is what they all
say at Frank Daniels in
"Crooky," last time tonight at
the Ogden Theater.

OAKS BADLY DEFEATED.
San Francisco, Cal., Sept. 22. Two
members of Rowdy EMiott's pitching
material tho uncertain Mr. Prough,
who started something he could not
'finish, and Young Mr. Gage, the re
cruit who couldn't find the target
and handed out free walks in bewil
dering fashion handed Los Angeles
a 10 to 3 session on a silver platter
at Recreation park this afternoon.
For thrco innings It resembled
moro or less a ball game. The Oaks,
having acquired a two-run load, look
ed fairly good, as do all winning clubs.
Then camo the slump, and what had
been worth watching was a howling
farce.
Clinton Prough proved not alono
that he could not pitch, but that he
could not field as well. He Blippcd
up on bunts that any twirler In tho
business should hav handled, and be
fore he had finished, or before Elliott
had concluded to make a switch in
the program, the Angels were well on
their way.
Slim Love, who next spring will be
on his way to YankeovIUe, after giv
ing the Oaks their lead, which the
boys so thoroughly handed back,
steadied down to a better pitching
job and got through the afternoon
with but one more score against him.

SEALS WIN FROM BEAVERS.
Portland, Ore., Sept 22. It wasn't
so much Harry Wolvorton's high pric
ed ball team today as it was young
Chuck Ward. Tho Portland short
stop booted a couple of grounders In
the sixth Inning and the two runs
that accrued enabled San Francisco
to win another game from Portland,
although Stanley Coveleskie clearly
outpltched Johnny Couch. The score
was San Francisco 4, Portland 3.
Aided by some spectacular fielding
on the part of the selfsame Ward and

rest of the locals' hits were scattered.
The feature of the game was the
