Chicagoan Defeats Opponents so Easily That He Is Not Given Credit He

WHAT a boxing marvel Packey
McFarland would be if he
could add about 15 pounds
solid flesh, to Ms frame' and another
inch to his height The Chicago boy
has proved many times that he is a
past master at the boxing game, but
he has alwajs done his wark in such
an easy manner that many fans nave
neer given Mm his just deserts. He
" like the finished baseball player who
makes phenomenal stops and throws
without apparent effort and the fans
Ket accustomed to it, so much so that
they never give players of this kind
ihe credit due them. Packey is in the
same boat. He meets inferior boxers
and finishes them in such an artistic
manner that the followers of the game
'ook upon the other, mw? the rank-
st kind of a dub. when the chances
are that the same fighter opposed to a
!ss scientific boxer would appear al
together different.
Packey has been accused of letting
boxers go the limit with him and all
such rot, but if he can win by a big
margin on points why should he try
to knock his opponent out? A boxing
match is supposed to be for points ana
tnat is what Packey tries to accom-
pl'sh win on points.
In his battle at New York with
Jack Bntton the Chicago bay showed
splendid generalship and also demon
strated that he knows every angle of
the boxing game. He was like an ice-

The Two New Hudson Cars
That 48 Engineers Built
The picked engineers from 97 European and American automobile fac
tories combined in building the New HUDSON cars.
There are 48 experts in the organization, at the head of which is How
ard B. Coffin, America's leading automobile engineer and builder of six
famous cars.
Combined, these men lad a hand in building more than 200,000 motor
cars.
No car can be greater than its engineers planned it to be. We believe
mechanical perfection is more quickly and thoroughly accomplished through
combining the experience and skill of many men than is ever possible if
dependence is placed entirely upon one man.

Tie "54" HUDSON supplies every demand-made of
any automobile, in speed, get-away, safety, power,
luxurious equipment, distinctive appearance aad
comfort.
It is not merely a "Six" made so by the addition
of two cylinders to a good four-cylinder car. It i
capable of a speed of 65 miles an hour with full
equipment and will jump to a speed of 58 miles an
hoar in 30 seconds from, a standing start.
Its equipment is complete in every detail, which
includes as electric self-cranking, electric lighting
dynamo type and ignition system, known as the Del
co, patented. Illuminated dash and extension lamp,
mohair top, euriain, rain visioa windshield, speedo
meter, clock, demountable rims, 36x4-tnch tires,
127-inch wheel base, etc.
The seat caehioBe are 12 inches deep. Turkish
type. The finest materials are used throughout. No
detail of finish or equipment is skimped or over
looked. "54" HUDSON Models: Five-passenger Toarisg

berg and just as foxy and clever as
the. famous Kid McCoy used to be. His
judgment of distance was almost per
fect and his blocking and ducking
cculd""not be improved on. Jack Brit
ton is a clever blocker and boxer him
self, but all the critics agreed that he
was no match for the scientific Mc
Farland. He was beaten at every
point, but there is some consolation
for Jack in the knowledge that he is
a real lightweight and can easily make
the limit of 133 pounds, while Packey
will hardly be able to set down below
135 pounds at 3 oclock- The weights
given out were McFarland 140 ring
side and Britton 136 1-2, showing that
Packey gained a few pounds after
weighing in at 6 oclock.
It is too bad that McFarland is just
between the real American lightweight
limit and the welterweight class, his
best weight being about 136 pounds,
or 135, at 3 oclock. Packey can easily
get into the international lightweight
class, which is 135 at 2 oclock. but he
falls shy a couple of pounds of the
Yankee schedule of weight.
Willie Ritchie, the champion, will no
doubt insist on Packey scaling 133 for
him, which if he does, will mean that
there will be no match between them.
Ad Wolgast offered to take McFar
land on at 135 at 3 oclock, but Ritchie
seems to have greater respect for the
Chicago boy's ability than did the lit
tle Michigan bearcat. No one can
blame Ritchie for holding to the low
weight, but they do not like the idea
of a champion holding -off for such a
long time without participating in a
title match. Packey has been after a
match for the lightweight title for
three years, but it seems that fate is
against him. He has been matched
several times with the champion, but
for some reason or other it has always
fallen through. Will it be the same
case over again with Ritchie?

enough and can get away from Chi

In building the HUDSON "37" all his skill and
experience contributed to its' perfection. But in
addition there was also worked into the car the skill
and experience of his 47 expert associates.
Thus was produced a car such as no one man is
capable of building. It is truly a composite .master
piece. The "37" combines all that these experts know in
the art of automobile building. Its detail of com
fort, beauty, distinctiveness and equipment is pre
cisely the same as that furnished on the "Six."
The car has sufficient power for every require
ment. It is quiet and free from the degree of vibra
tion common to most automobiles.
It is a simple, accessible, durable car the best our
48 engineers know how to build; therefore we unhesi
tatingly recommend it as the Master of any four
cylinder car, regardless of cost, poyer or make.

with Al Palzer In Paris there is con
siderable doubt about it taking place.
From information at hand from the
other side there is strong opposition
beginning to appear In the French cap
ital against the bout. The following
letter was received from a well known
sporting authority of London:
"Probably it will Interest you to
know that Al Palier, who is here with
his manager, Tom" CKourke, of New
York, -vftdted Paris yesterday and
conferred, with M. Vlehhe, of the big j
boxHtg--ciuD mere, jegaraiog ute pro
posed bout with Johnson. Copies of
the contract have been mailed to Chi
cago for the negro's signature, but I
fail to see how the match will come
off If Johnson Is still held by the la-l
and Is also ill, as reported here. Even i
if Johnson does comer there is no cer
tainty that the match with-Falser will
take place. Just now there is no ap
parent objection to the match; that is
between a black and a white man, but
from what I have learrfed the past few
days there are influential people in
Paris who have taken the matter in
hand and who say they will take a
staiial against It should the promoters
really try to go through with It The
bout will have to be very widely ad
vertised to be a success and that will
draw lots of opposition to it. It was
through the same extensive advertis
ing that the proposed Wells-Johnson
fight here two years ago was stopped.
I am inclined to think that the match
will never come off in Paris, and I
feel sorry for O'Rourke, who has gone
to considerable expense in coming over
to get It fixed up and who' appears
to be a fine fellow. Should he fail
there he will no doubt have a chance
to match Palzer up with some of the
British or French -heavyweights."
It is evident from the above that
the French people are not so easy when
it comes to boxing affairs as they
were a few years ago. They are
learning all the tricks of the trade
rapidly and they realize now that a
match will attract so much attention
as the one proposed may not do the
game any good. The chances are that

Frenchmen having appreciated his
work against Sam McVey when they
fought two years ago. And, by the
way, It would be some scrap, too.
There were several real surprises
in the fistic world last week, which
only proves again that the dope very
often goes wrong. Pat Moore, the
Philadelphia 130 pounder, who gave
Charlie White such a hard battle at
Kenosha. Wis., early last fall, was ex
pected to retrieve his laurels, but
just when 'he began to look good to
the fans around the ring the Chicago
lad shot over a hard right which
caught Pal back -.of the ear as they
were coming out of a clinch and it
put him to the canvas for too count
of nine. Poor Pal was all but out
then, but he struggled to his feet and
finished the round after taking two
more knockdowns. It looked like
1000 to 1 that the Quaker boy would
never go the fourth round, but he
not only stayed through the fourth,
but through "the tenth and in the final
round fought so hard that he got an
even break for his effort in the tenth
session, although losing the battle by
a big margin. He was beaten all the
way after the knockdown in the third
and seemed unable to gain his speed
after that.

Cross Is Ih Line For Chance At Title
Knockout of Joe Mandot Raises New York Fighter Several Notches Toward
Championship Crown.
By ED. CDRLEY.
N
EW YORK. N. T., March 18.
Skipping blithely through a few
centuries, we can slant some
lanky pedagog haranguing a class of
youths in ancient history. "We will
now discuss New York in the 20th cen
tury" he chirps, fo.r in that era there
were some doings, in that town.
"This papyrus, discovered in the
ruins of that village, gives startling
details of investigations of city offi
cials, a atory of the high lord discours
ing Epictetus when the citlsens were
clamoring for reform, a tale of the
stock exchange being very much
wrought up. and a history of Battling
Keefe. who, as I gather, was some
pumpkin in those uncivilized days.
"Now, children, I have slipped you
the dope, so tell me who was the great
est man of that period."
"Leacies Cross," came the answer,
without a moment's hesitation.
"Missouri being the birthplace or
my progenitors," observed ' the mas
ter, "hand me the chatter witn no
Durham." And he shook the rod
threateningly.
o hang one over on Johnny Kilbane
for the featherweight title.
Another star in the distance ap
peared at this same show, Matty Mc
Cue, of Racine, a 124 pounder, who
knocked out George Horton, of Denver,
in three rounds. Horton is no dub
by a long ways and he knows the
game, too, but the Racine boy carried
too much power behind his blows, even
with eight ounce gloves, and put his
opponent to sleep with right and left
swings to the jaw after he had rocked
his head back with jabs and stung him
with straight stabs to the stomach, to
get his guard down. McCue Is coming
and as I have mentioned before, just
watch him.
It must have been disconcerting to
Joe Mandot and his manager. Tommy
Walsh, to have Leach Cross, the New
York dentist, put over the sleep pro
ducer in the tenth round after the New
Orleans youth had outpointed the east
erner all the way.' It means a big
loss to Joe, for he bad been figuring
on getting into another match with
Joe Rivers or Tommy Murphy on the
coast and also looked forward to a
match with Willie Ritchie. This de
feat puts him out of it for a time and
brings Cross into tifc limelight. It
may mean another meeting between
Cross and Murphy, as they pre bitter
rivals. It also means that Pal Brown,
the Minnesota lightweight, is coming
nearer a match with either RIVers or
Murphy for the right to meet Ritchie.
Spike Kelly, the Chicago welter
weight, made many of the fans take
notice by giving Clarence Ferns, who
claims the 142 pound title along with
Ray Bronson. of Indianapolis, a fierce
battle of ten rounds at Kansas City.
Ferns gained the decision, but reports
from the Kaw town vary, some claim
ing that Kelly won. others that Ferns
won easily and still some a draw, so
that it must have been a pretty even
sti uggle all the way. Now let them
fight it out and have the winner meet
Bronson over the marathon route and
we will have a real welterweight
champion. It is about time the dispute
as to who is champion was settled.

Chance Prefers Curve To the Spitball
-Manager of New York Americans Has Schoolmaster Twirler Convert His
Delivery Recruit Pjtcher Green Is Ordered to Ease Up ia Practice.
By W. J. MAC BETH.
HAMILTON, Bermuda. March IS.
Frank Chance believes he is over
stocked with spitball pitchers,
and the Peerless Leader has
ordered Ray Fisher to con
cert his delivery. It was assumed that
the pedagog was. next to Russ Ford,
the best saliva slinging 'pitcher of
Chance's forces,but Chance is strong
ly of the opinion .that a &ool pitcher
would be .sacrificed if Flatter con

Chance made his decision after ma
ture deliberation. For several days
past be has had Fisher exhibit his
pitching repertoire. Chance scruti
nized everv ball the schoolmaster
pitched to Ed Sweeney. Fisher showed
better control over his curve ball than
he did over the "spitter." That alone
decided Chance.
The new Yankee manager is a '
stickler for steadiness in a pitcher. He
prefers a steady mediocre pitcher to
an erratic star twirler. Chance con
sulted with Fisher, over the advisabil
ity of dropping the spitball, and Ray
admitted that his control over the "ex
pectorator" was nothing to brag about.
