CLABBY STOPS LOGAN
AFTER 14 ROUNDS OF
ONE SIDED FIGHTING
WILLIAM J. SLATTERY
The knowing fans of San Francisco made no mistake when they in
stalled Jimmy Clabby aloto 4 favorite over Frank Logan. This was
clearly demonstrated by Clabby yesterday afteronon in the Daly City ring.
The middle weight from Indiana systematically hammered end chopped
his heavier opponent up for 14 rounds and Referee Jim Griffin wis forced
to do the humane act and officially stop the uneven battle.
After Clabby bad planted a pile driver left to the pit of Logan's
stomach in the fourteenth Logan began to totter toward the ropes and
Clabby was right after him. Griffin saw that Logan did not have a chance,
so he took it upon himself to step in and raise the hand of Clabby, pro
ng him the winner of the battle. I y~— *~^+~^**~~*~^~*^~..-*-^~*~~s~~*s,.
Then a mlxup occurred. Logan in
sisted upon fighting and went after
Clabby In a half hearted sort of way.
>t':abby was right back at him with
another left to the Jaw. Griffin
watched the mlxup for a few sec
onds and then he again grabbed hold
of Clabby, and this time he made his
verdict stick.
It was very evident that the ref
eree was »ither rattled or else Logan
was trying to make some sort of a
grandstand play. Anyhow, the fans
were well satisfied with the verdict,
even the stanchest admirers of the
former soldier admitting that he did
not have the slightest chance.
CLABBY A PAST MASTER
Not a round was in Logan's favor.
He was absolutely helpless before the
attack of the Hoosler whirlwind. He
showed his gameness and his stamina
by taking all that Clabby had to offer,
but when it came to returning the
compliment Logan did not figure.
"When one of his stray punches did
land they only served to arouse the
fighting blood of his opponent.
Clabby displayed a varied assort
ment of wallops. In fact, there was
nothing on the list from the loop-the
loop left to the full right swing that
he did not try out on the former sol
dier. He landed whenever and wher
ever he pleased. He steered his op
ponnt around the ring like the man
at the wheel would steer a ship, and
Logan was helpless to prevent It.
Although the work of the Indiana
man was clean cut and businesslike.
It was not quite so wonderful as the
display of science which he showed us
that night six weeks ago when he
Save Sailor Petroskey a 20 round box
ing lesson. In fact, many of the fans
were a bit disappointed in Clabby.
Thay expected more of him, but, ap
parently, he did not care much.
There is no doubt that clever
Jimmy Is a bit shy on the wallop.
Had his blows carried the necessary
sting to them Logan never would have
lasted six rounds. Up to that time
Clabby landed everything he had doz
ens of times over. They shook Logan
up and at times made him groggy,
but he was always there to come back
lor a few more of them.
REMOVES FALSE TEETH
♦ One round was very much the same,
■s another. Clabby was the aggres
sor at all times, save when he de
cided to take a little rest. Then he
wouli either stall around or run
away and permit Logan to chase him
a bit. He had his opponent sized up
exactly to his liking. He knew just
■what he could do with him and he
also knew that Logan was at his beck
and call.
One one occasion Clabby's false
tp*-th gave him some trouble. They
were partly dislodged by one of Lo
gan "s glancing blows. The clever
Hoosler held Logan away from him
while he removed the teeth and tossed
them over to his seconds to look after
for him. This just goes to show how
much worried Jimmy was, and Logan
seemed to realize it. too.
The punches which Clabby landed
nn Logan's jaw did not appear to dis
tress the former soldier to any
marked degree, so Clabby at once
directed his attention to the stomach,
planting both hands there at will.
The constant hammering to the
lower extremities had the desired ef
fect, although the process was a slow
and a tedious one. After the tenth
round Logan began to fail rapidly,
but still Clabby could not finish him.
The Hoosler apparently was very
«~areles • in directing his attack upon
the body of Logan. Time after time
the blows seemed suspiciously low.
Spider Kelly and the other seconds in
Logan's corner protested time after
time to the referee, but the claims of
foul were not allowed.
LOG A N IS HELPLESS
Logan failed to land a single dam
aging blow on Clabby. Now and then
he would shoot in a clumsy right or
left to the Jaw, but, instead of doing
any damage, these wallops only caused
the blood of the Hoosier to boil over,
and, as a result, he would renew his
attack upon Logan.
The former servant of Uncle Sam
1 il much the better of it In height,
■Tweight and reach, but he was unable
to make these physical edges count.
He simply does not know the game,
and he is a very slow thinker.
When he had a chance to use his
weight In the clinches Logan Just
stood there and allowed Clabby to
back him at will. He might have
caused Jimmy much trouble had he
been a little more wise to the game.
When the men stepped on the scales
at Corbett's at noon Logan was a
pound over the required weight, 158
pounds. Clabby insisted that he make
the weight, so he ran around the block
a couple of times and barely made It.
Logan may have been weak when
he entered the ring, but his weakness
appeared more mental than physical.
Perhaps he may be a regular fighter
pome day in the future, but he cer
tainly will have to learn very fast.
The first preliminary, a six round
affair between Stockyards Murphy of
Chicago and Norman Stone of Los An
geles, was called a draw, although
Stone really won by a couple of city
blocks. Bubbles Robinson, the Los
Angeles colored lightweight, and Wil
lie Robinson of this city stepped 10
rounds to a draw in the second ring
Warmer.
Although the sun shone brightly
and upheld Sunshine Jim Coffroth's
prediction, it was a cold, crisp day,
and, as a result, the arena was but a
little more than half filled.

THE OLD MASTER, PAST AND PRESENT -:
JEFF LIKES
WORK OF
RIVERS
Former Champion Believes He
Is Entitled to Another
Bout With Ritchie
JAMES J. JEFFRIES
LOS ANGELES, Nov. 2S.—Joe Riv
ers fought like a champion yesterday
and his victory over Leach Cross was
a natural result. Any time that Riv
ers puts up such a fight he is worth
a bet agalrurt any lightweight living.
It waa the best battle I ever saw
put up, and in going back over the
fight by rounds I a munable to offer
a single criticism of his tactics or of
his conduct in the ring. '
Throughout the batUe he kept a
cool head on his shoulders and used
more brains in directing his efforts
than I previously had given him
credit for having. He fought a per
fect battle in every respect. Refus
ing to be rattled or to lose his head
by the taunts of Cross, carefully plan
ning his battle as he went along and
boxing and fighting at his best form,
he was invincible. There never was
a time when I feared that he might
lose, especially after the first three
rounds.
Rivers' one big fault in the past has
been his carelessness in the ring, his
proneness to lose his head when stung
and leave himself open to attack by a
wise ring general. Cross used every
device known to him in an effort to
get Rivers' goat, but the Mexican was
steady at all times and refused to fall
for any of it. In my opinion, this was
one of the big factors in his victory.
CROSS DESERVES CREDIT
I can not criticise the battle that
Cross put up. He fully lived up to his
reputation for cleverness, brains,
punch and courage, and is entitled to
a great deal of credit for the showing
be made against odds. The battle that
Cross put up would win nine battles
out of 10. I can not say that he was
outclassed, but Rivers proved himself
clever, faster, a better puncher and
equally as cool headed.
Any other sort of a battle would
have produced different results for
Rivers, no doubt. "While he was al
ways leading by at least a slight mar
gin. Cross was ever alert, watching
constantly for a chance to get over his
right and win the fight in a single
punch, and he wag willing to mix it
and take a chance. He is a shrewd
ring general, and Rivers had to keep
his head with hi mall the time to as
sure victory for himself.
Rivers clearly won the right to de
mand a return match with Ritchie by
his showing yesterday, and I would
like to see these boys matched for a
bout here.
There may be something in the
home air or in the home surroundings
to make Rivers fight better here than
elsewhere, but, anyway, if they meet
again, I hope it will be staged here.
Ritchie might defeat him again, but
If Rivers would put up the same sort
of a fight against him that he put up
against Cross yesterday it would be
a sensational scrap.
RIVERS ALL THE WAY
It may be that the distance was too
great for Cross, but I hardly think so.
He finished strong and full of fight,
after standing up under a gruelling
fire in the first half, bo the distance
probably had little effect upon his
chances.
Rivers would have won just as de
cisely had It been a 10 round affair in
stead of double the distance. He was
leading by the same margin, practi
cally, at the start of the eleventh
round.
Both boys stripped in fine condition
and the battle they put up proved that
they had not exaggerated in statins?
that they were fit for the best ofi'tr of
their car—re. Thar* was nothing at
any time during the bout to indicate
that either was lacking in conditino,

Chinese writing and reading are hard on the brain,
In our presence from Latin and Greek please refrain,
But above is all simple and soft to explain,
As compared to the questions they spring.
When a guy springs such questions he's known as a bore,
When he troubles us often and troubles us more,
When he comes fooling round us and asks, "What's the score?"
Such a question he constantly springs.
Against that little question we can not complain,
For we hear it quite often, and time and again,
But the next thing he asks us proves weakness of brain,
'Twas a foolish old question be sprung.
We had told him, for instance, that Detroit's ahead,
When he jumped up an dasks us, "Who's playing?" he said.
Thus proving he lacked matter gray in his head,
So foolish the question he sprung.
ATHLETIC CHATTER
Congratulations to Herb Morton,
the new Pacific association ten-mile
road champion. Morton is the only
real rival that Oliver Millard has
over distance of five miles or more.
A race between these two men for
the Pacific association track cham
pionship would be a big feature that
the association could well stage In
the spring.
The race would undoubtedly bring
out a large entry. It should be an
annual affair just as the road race
is. Morton has been in the public
eye as a distance runner for the
past few years ever since he attended
Mountain View high. His win yes
terday is ample proof of his ability to
go against the best ten milers that
can be pitted against him.

Once an indoor date is awarded to
the first club applying for it, it is up
to the Pacific association not to award
any other date until after the first

return game be played. These two
teams are showing the class among
the local old game teams and an
other meeting would be welcomed by
the fans.
* * »
Now that all the road races are a
thing of the past, athletes will be pre
paring themselves for the indoor
meets. At the present time there are
indications of at least two high class
indoor meets. Every one is waiting
to see which club will grab the first
date.
The pilot car of yesterday's road
race made a big mistake In the park
when It stopped In the center of the
road with the flag hoisted on high.
Morton mistook this as the turning
point of the race, and went round
it and started on his homeward
course. He lost fully 15 yards by the
mistake, not to mention lost energy.
Edgar Stout never ran better in his
life than he did yesterday, consid
ering he had but three days" training.
If Stout would go at things with
# * *
some method he would be one of the
best distance men hereabouts. He
has the pace for a mile runner If he
was properly trained and used his
head.
The Call yesterday was able to re
port In detail the enltre route of the
road race through the courtesy of the
Studebaker Automobile company,
which placed a fine "6" at the disposal
of the sports department to get the

There is another titled Englishman

and is the owner of the famous yacht
Istria, which takes race after race

We have not heard much of late of

Poor old John Bull. About the only
championship that he now claims is

The Detroit News of November 21
gives some very startling news that
will be of deep interest to Stanford.
The News states that the Stanford
university is organizing a special
intercollegiate football team to meet
the Carlisle Indians, which are—or
now or not—coming to this coast.
Then the story goes on to tell about
the Stanford stars, as follows:
There is plenty of material at the
university for a first class team. Gil
lian, two years ago an All-Pennsyl
vania prep school half, has been elect
ed captain, and in addition to him
there are many other former stars
at the American game. Landreth,
Dill and Siefert, formerly of Occiden
tal college, the latter having been
mentioned by Walter Camp for the
All-American team; Bert West and
Mike Tedford, former Santa Ana
high stars: Ulrich, a prep star from
Connecticut; McDaniel, a center from
Utah; Scofleld, an eastern quarter
back, and several other former phe
noms have signified their intention of
getting out for the team, so that
there is plenty of material from which
to pick a team to meet the redskins.
We donft know of any other Stan
ford university than the one down at
Palo Alto, and the wonderful stars
mentioned have never been heard of
around the Stanford campus.

SOUTH BOWS
TO NORTH
AT RUGBY
Penalty Kick Gives Lads of
This Section a 3 to 0
Victory
The north beat the south yesterday
in the All-Star interscholastlc game
at Stanford by a score of 3 to 0. The
game was played by specially selected
teams from the high school 3of the
rival parts of the state.
Both teams were evenly matched
and neither side was able to put the
ball across the opposition goal line
for a try, the only tally made during
the game being from a penalty kick
by Mickey Forbes. Strangely enough,
the result of the northern victory was
due to the Forbes brothers, who have
shown remarkable football ability.
Steu Forbes got a mark on the
southern 25 yard line and his brother
Mickey sent the ball over for the
three points.
The southern team showed to slight
advantage in the actual scrum work,
but In the loose the northern forwards
shone. The northerners' back field
was the best and attempted to open
up the play at various times, while
the south did not take any chances
in this respect. Neither team showed
to advantage in real combination.
There was a lot of brilliant individ
ual play on both sides. Walker, the
northern halfback, being right up to
•his best form and showing ability at
working the scrum that marks the
lad as a coming halfback in the
Rugby code. The Forbes brothers
were In the play all tue time and were
instrumental in opening up the game
at various times.
Kinney, the southern halfback, was
the best of the boys, though his work
was not the equal of Walker's. Sutt
of Redlands, Baker of Pomona and
Whittemore all did good work in the
southern scrum and general forward
work.
The teams lined up as follows:
North—Fullback. Holllngswortu (Woodhmd);
thiee-iruarters. Wallace (Palo Alto), K. Forbes
(Boone academy), Walte (Stockton): tive
eichtlis, S. Forbes (Boone academy. Stafford

five-eighths: Lucas (Visalia), wing.
South— Fullback. McGnlre (Los Angeles

MORTON IS
FIRST IN
LONG RUN
Pastime Athlete Shows His
Class Over the Strenuous
Ten Mile Course
Young Herbert Morton of the Pas
time club showed all the class in the
10 mile road race yesterday, winning
by a good margin from Edgar Stout,
and, incidentally, annexing the cham
pionship blue ribbon as the best 10
miler in this locality. The race was
run off by the local Young Men's
Christian association under sanction
of the Pacific Athletic association.
Twenty-three athletes started and
21 of them finished the course. From
the starting gun it was evident that
the race would be a contest betweeen
Stout, Mauldin, Morton and Spanton,
this quartet opening up a big lead on
the rest of the field, and eventually
took the first four places.
Morton took command at the mu
seum on the outgoing leg through
the park, and from that point on was
never headed. The other three men
had a big fight for the next three
places. At the stadium, which was
the half way mark, Morton was timed
in 27:56 1-5, leading Mauldin by a few
yards.
The balance of the race was easy
for Morton, the incoming five miles
seeing Stout come up into second
place, with the backmarkers changing
positions frequently and making a
fight between the Pastime and Y. M.
C. A. runners for the team prize.
When the points were eventually
counted it was found* that both clubs
had tallied 40 points, making the team
championship an even break for their
organizations on points.
President Elliott's attention was
called to the tie score, and he decided
that as the race was a P. A. A. cham
pionship the rules of that body gov
erned the contest. The rule on tie
score says: "In case of a tie on points
the team whose individual member
finished nearest to first place will be
the winner." With the winner a Pas
time man and the third man a Pas
timer, the team prize goes to that
club.

Big Meet at Juarez Track Is
Opened in a Blaze of
Glory *
PETE CLARK
EL PASO. Tex., Nov. 28.—Most bril
liant was the opening of the fifth
winter meeting of the Jockey club at
Juarez, which began yesterday. Fully
5,000 persons attended. The weather
was like early spring and the track
conditions absolutely perfect.
So far as conditions at the Juarea
course yesterday were concerned, an
onlooker did not discern that war ever
had prevailed in Mexico.
Leading citizens of America and
Mexico mingled together in the huge
crowd like brothers, seemingly inter
ested only in witnessing the high class
racing, which was one of the best
opening cards ever run off on this
track, the meeting of which will run
100 days or more this season.
The feature race was the $1,500
Juarez handicap, which aroused a lot
of interest. The field was a high class
one, several speed marvels being
among the starters. Iron Mask, J.
Livingston's star sprinter, was en
tered in this event, but was an ab
sentee from the post, owing to Trainer
Goldblatt not believing him up to a
hard race at present, he having given
him but little work since his arrival
here.
He was breezed this morning three
furlongs in :37 2-5, and will undoubt
edly be ready to race in a couple of
weeks.
Panzareta won the Juarez handicap
in the hardest kind of a drive from
Mimorioso, which was badly outpaced
in the early part. Useeit was a strong
contender at all times.
Seven bookmakers drew stands in
the ring and one in the field. Among
them were Roy Offutt. L Ham, Willie
Applegate, Frank Shannon, John Lew
is, J. S. Hughes and John Troy.
Bookmaker George Rose is among
the absentees. He will be here after
the first of the year, remaining in San
Francisco until after the holidays.
