Mc'L arty May Surprise Pueblo Fire&ian
"Young Jack" O'Brien, 18 Years Old Tuesday, Will Fight Duffy on December
16 Experts "Want lightweights to Fight at 135 Pounds.
By T. S. ANDREWS.
DON T be surprised If lather Mc
Carty, the big white hope -whom
Silly McCarney discovered down
. " llisslouri, defeats Jim Flynn in their
0 round bout at Los Angeles. On
f rm it looks like a 3 to 1 shot on
FiynE, but the dopt Sheet is not al
ways to be relied upon. Flynn mau?
ate a reputation when he fought Jack
.johnson at Las Vegas, N. M., July 4
last, even though he lost, and he has
been picked by many as the best of the
wKte hopes. He'has taken on weight
and strips now over 1M when his flesh
is hard. He is rough and can take the
gaff which is most essential ,1n any
heavyweight battle. McCarty is big and
s rcrng, weighing over SIS in shape and
over six feet in height. He lacks ex
f nence but in the contests he has
h-u the past eight months he nas shown
.improvement right along and has dem
. cstrated that it will take a good hard
punch a real sleep producer to make
him take the 16 count. If he uses his
- i. odle at all he should be able to stand
t j.f and jab Flynn's head to pieces, hav
ing the strength, reach and height all
j -j. his favor. Flynn may cop his man
t he gets him mixed at any time, but
u.on t overlook the fact that the big,
r-w-boned Missouri lad Is coming and
he may upset a lot of dope.
On December 11, "Xoung Jack"
OBnen will celebrate his 18th Birthday
and on December 16 he will fight Jimmy
Duffy 10 rounds at Buffalo, N. Y., at
135 pounds. "Young Jack" has had a
remarkably successful career, consider
ing that he only started fighting a lit
tle more than 18 months ago, or, to be
exact, his first appearance in a boxing
contest was on Jcay i, 191L He has not
picked out marks to meet, but jumped
into the limelight from the first by
meeting the best lightweights in the
business, among them Young Erne, K.
tt Brown, Ad Wolgast, Leach Cross and
t ne Bound Hogan. He became a head
liner at the New York clubs after his
first appearance and has been most sue-tt-ssful
in all his battles. He. is a fine
appearing young man and reminds one
..i K.d McCov in action, in fact, he is
called the kid McCoy of the ring in Phll
. .lelphia, his home town. , Big brother
Jack is handling the youngster, and
i -j ares that some of these days he will
be" a crack middleweight, as he has the
build for a 15S pounder.
' He developed so fast that I could
hardly realize that he was good enough
to go against the stars," said Jack
v hile In Philadelphia to the writer. "To
i-how how much I think of him. I will
natch him against Packey McFarland
rt 138 pounds ringside for a side bet
t.f S1CO0 and split the purse any way
the other side wants it. the fight to be
!5 or 20 rounds, the latter preferred.
After his fight with Duffy In Buffalo,
unless some big match should loom up
here, I intend to take Young Jack and
my middleweight. Jack McCarron, over

later make a trip to Australia. Mc
Carron will be ready to meet Klaus or
Papke on the other side, and take it
; from me, he will beat them.
i "I think it would be a wise thing for
Willie Ritchie to try and raise the
lightweight limit to 135 pounds, as it is
a better weight than 133, and it would
make the limit uniform all'' over the
world, as that is what Great Britain,
France and Australia follow now. I
have always been n favo;, too, of the
middleweight limit being placed at 160
and- all weighing at three oclock in
the afternoon."
The announcement that Willie Ritchie,
the new lightweight champion, will
raise the 'weight limit- to 135 pounds
to suit his own convenience, does not
-Strike the boxing fans with the right
ring. Ritchie has no right to raise tho
limit. However, under the circumstan
ces, it might be a good thing for the
game if the limit was raised and made
tti conform with the lightweight limit
in other countries, which is 135 pounds.
An effort has been made for the past
10 years to have a uniform scale of
weights adopted by the various coun
tries, but without success. Now it may
be brought about by the new champion,
for If he insists on raising the limit
to suit his own fancy It will mean
that It will go to where the British and
French weights are already placed, also
the Australian. And this fact brings
to mind another issue that of world's
champion. Wolgast has always claimed
the .world's title, but he really had no
honest claim to it. Looking at this
matter in a broad light, Freddie Welsh,
the new British champion, has equal
claims to the world's title. Wolgast
never defeated the British or Austra
lian champion for the world's title, nor,
for that matter, did Battling Nelson,
se that Ritchie can only be considered
the American champion.
Should Ritchie want to tilt the weight
it would meet the approval of the Brit
ish, French and Australian boxing
critics, for that is just where they stand
on it now. Practically all the pro
moters in the states are against ring
side weighing, and if the limit is
changed It would be a good Idea at the
same time to change the weighing
time from ringside to two or three
oclock the day of the contest. If this
was done it would bring about a uni
form weight for the lightweight class
Following the defeat of Ad Wolgast
by Willie Ritchie come challenges from
all sides to the new champion and the
promoters are breaking their necks try
ing to get some of the choice matches
In sight. The best match of the whole
lot seems to have been passed by In the
excitement, and that is between Joe
Rivers and Wolgast The fans do not
forget the remarkable fight between
Rivers and Wolgast. when the latter
won on an alleged fonl or knockout,
and the fact that Rivers defeated Joe
Mandot, who was considered next in
line to Wolgast. would make a Rlvers
Wolgast fight almost as interesting as
one between the champion and Rivers.
It would set at rest the claims by the
two men In their former battle and
would bring the winner Into the lime
light for another championship contest

with Ritchie. It is not likely that
Ritchie will give Wolgast another
chance at the' title for some time to
come, as bis manager. Billy Nolan, Is
too wise for that. He will make hay
while the sun shines, the same as he did
when he handled Battling Nelson.
In the meantime there are several
lightweights clamoring for matches
with the new champion, among them
Packey McFarland, Jack Britton, Joe
Mandot and Freddy Welsh. Packey
McFarland has done the right thing and
at the right time by coming oat in a
signed statement, to the effect that
he considers Ritchie the best boy in
the country today at 133 pounds, which
he has demonstrated he can make.
Packey also states that in his opinion
Ritchie had Wolgast beaten when the
foul was committed. He now asks that
Ritchie agree to meet him at 135 pounds
instead of 133 ringside as the American
weight call3 for. Britton would also
like to match up with Ritchie on the
same terms.

A Little Gossip
Hughey Jennings is going to handle
the New York Yankes next season.
If Harvard students failed to make
any demonstration immediately follow
ing the football victory over Yale they
have been "cutting up" even since.
The "cuttln up" has consisted of
carving the 20 to 0 score of the game
on benches, desks and window- sills.
Sever hall is said to have hardly a
bench or desk which does not display a
28 to 0 carved Jn the wood. Theodore
Roosevelt's initials are surrounded
with the legend "2JO-0" and one man
left a benediction. "God bless Brick
ley." Its a pretty safe bet that catcher Alva
Williams, of Washington, will be in
more games next season than he was
in this. In fact, Williams would have
caught in comparatively few games but
for the fact that Henry and Ainsmlth
were incapacitated, yet he has shown
so much ability since he has been given
a chance that he Is assured -to work
regularly next season.
Umpire Bill Evans remarked that
Walter Johnson, the shrapnel shooter
of the Washingtons, Is the "Only pitcher
whose speed ever made him blink.
Peter Pan, James R. Keene's great
stallion, has been sold for $100,000. It
is reported that agents of George Gould
purchased the horse.
Claiming that he was ilegally and un
justly deprived of his seat at the world's
series game in Boston October 12, Ed
ward F. Smith, of Worcpster, has
brought suit for $5000 against the Bos
ton American league baseball club.
Smith claims he purchased a ticket at
the gate and went to his seat. Later,
he claims, he was forced from his seat
and taken to a detention room on the
grounds, where he was kept an hour
and a half and then turned out and re
fused permission to see the game.
President Navin. of the Detroit Amer

game by a margin of seven pins. One
of the largest crowds of the season at

the Andreas team strengthened its hold

Bowling Notes.
Calisher was taken out in the first
game last night to allow Suggs, one
of- the regular team members, to fill
his place.
Walz was the champion hard luck
bowler last night, missing many strikes
by only one pin, and was the only
bowler to roll under 500 in the City
league.
Schutz, of the Calisher team, exhib
ited some marked luck, being the main
stay of the Calisher team and mak
ing the only strikeout for his side.
Suggs, of the Calisher team, although
in poor form, was the good luck bowl
er last night, making several hard
splits and knocking down almost im
possible pins.
After the Industrial league match
last night the women bowlers lined up
on alleys one and two, and several
bowlers rolled up good scores.
Stratton, of the Andreas team, and
Schutz. of the Calisher bunch, were the
only bowlers to make strikeouts.
Stone, the crack southpaw of the An
dreas team, was credited with the
most strikes and was the second bowl
er in the grand total. Several times
Stone missed strikeouts by only one
pin.
Barela rolled an irregular game, but
managed to save himself by piling up
points in the second half and mak
ing high game for the match.
Lehman, of the Andreas team, bowled
a steady game In the second and third
games, making fourth In the grand to
tal. Bryan, of the Calisher team, ana
medal winner for the first month,
bowled a steady game throughout, but
'was the second lowest man on the high
total.
Tonight the Elks and the Tuttle
teams will meet on the City league
alleys, while the Mine and Smelter and
El Toros will clash on the Industrial
alleys.

BRESNAHAN'S CLAIM
New York. N. Y.. Dec 10. The claim
of Roger Bresnahan against the St.
Louis Nationals for alleged breach of
contract probably will be settled by an
arbitration committee in St. Louis.
This was the tentative decision of the
board of directors or the National
league. Bresnahan and his attorneys
appeared before the board and pre
sented the claim.
The claim of umpire Charles Rlgler
to $2200 against the Philadelphia club
for services In signing pitcher Rlxey.
gave the directors an opportunity to
go on record as opposed to umpires
acting as scouts for club managers In
obtaining players. The claim of Rlg
ler was placed on file.
Cornelius J. Sullivan, a director of
the New York club, was seated as a
member of the board In the place of
the late John T. Brush. Other mem
bers of the board present were Herr
mann, of Cincinnati: Ebbetts, of Brook
lyn; Dreyfuss. of Pittsburg, and Mur

Brown Prefers Fights To Turkey Trots
Fighter Is Peeved Because He Failed to Make His Record of $60,000 Daring
Season Kelson Reiterates "Wolgast is a Cheese Champwn."
. By ED. CURLEY. '
N"
EW YORK, Dec 10. You'd im
agine that since "Knockout"
Brown staked himself to a
swell se't of open scenery and that
the social days were now blossoming,
he'd forget all about the ring and oil
his trilbys for cotillons, turkey trots
and so on. Well he ain't. That flaxen
haired Dutchman is just goin' to tear
himself from our midst and knock 'em
dead out west with his slamming.
Brown is sore, for this year he failed
to exceed his record of $60,000 made
battling last season. He says: 'Teh
brauche das gelt." Morgan, his man
ager, couldn't "get" Brown when he
sputtered the cherman, but chirps that
its strictly on the level.
The loose-eyed battler will probably
tackle Joe Rivers, the conquerer of
Joe Mandot, in a 12-round affair at
Cleveland the latter part of this month.
Rivers wants to meet the Dutchman,
and as Joseph will get $3000 for his
drawdown It's Impossible for him to
overlook the engagement.
When Brown whips Rivers (we have
Morgan's authority for this remark),
the former will hike to California and
take a fall out of the dethroned champ,
Adolph Wolgast. After he finishes
that's too far to dope. I

to a draw. That would be the only
fair decision 'when every angle of the
contest is carefully considered. The
plain fact is, that neither man did him

one of the leading candidates for the
middleweight title
The announcement of weights fur

McGoorty scaled at 155 and Gibbons at
148 3-4. And therein may lie the ex
planation of the mediocre performance
Both were too finely drawn and It was
evident that much of their speed and
stamina had been left in the gymna

neither showed many signs of punish
