On Elte a(’am s 4 4
With ELLIOTT METCALF
Lionel L. Roberts has .
years out of the bllldlekﬂ.m Sedk Slo te Navy sfter 28
At 19 yvears of age, the young man with the Lord Faunt
leroy given name, is straight, rugged and as healthy as any
ardent outdoors man can be, 2 .
And he's a tough, rugged, vicious individual when it
comes time to attack or defend himself. He has had no end
of experience in attack and defense.
’_d”‘"“": ‘h‘ ';“:”' 8, If you haven't guessed, none other than
“idie (hayo) Roberts as devastating puncher the welterweight divi
sion ever knew, and that goes for Walker, Joe Walcott or any of the
other immortal hitters at the poundage
Information concerning Eddie's enlistment came in a surprise
letter from him to Jack Connor, veteran Tacoman and the man who
steered the great hitter to the top ranks,
Here is Eddie’s letter:
“Friend Jack: Well, believe it or not, Jack, here I am right back
where 1 started from before you tried to make a boxer (or what have
you) of me.
< lepw you remember where Mike Jacobs and McCarney's office
was? Well, lam writing from the ground floor at the corner. Now
the Pepsi-Cola company has it for & service men's club and I don't
think you would recognize the town Any more, ‘
“The only person that I have seen back here that 1 knew was
Mickey Walker, and just accidentally ran into him.
“He looks fine, Jack, weighs about the same as I (170), but is &
little stouter and chunky. |
“Was going to the bouts tonight at the Garden but am going bnrhl
to bed instead,
“How are Elliott and Danny? Give them my best and tell Elliott
to stick to it and we will go hunting when this is all through. «
“In fact, Jack, I don’t think I'm golng to do anything except hunt
and fish when it's all over, |
~“When you come right down to it, Jack, it has been a little better
than 20 years since I left here out of the Navy to come to Tacoma and
box Freddy Kelly for you and Shanklin, |
“Well, Jack, I'll ring off now and after I catch my ship in a wnkl
or so I'll write again,
“Hope you are in the best of health. Give my best regards to all. |
“Always , . . Eddie Roberts.”
Once a Navy Man, Always One . ..
A very readable letter, now isn't it? Well, this corner
always insisted no fighter in our memory ever wrote a more
intelligent letter.
It doesn't surprise me, however, to read of Eddie's going back in
gervice. Once a man takes a whirl in the Navy and the old country |
goes into action again, the Navy blood boils and the urge to get back
in the harness is tremendous, |
Then, too, there is that patriotism the service instills in one, tho'
yen to stand up there and blast away at the enemy, more especially
the dwarfs of Beetle-face Hirohito, ‘
Eddie had that yen and satisfied it by marching up to the line and
signing up for the duration, .
What a terror he'd make as a foeman out there on some landing |
beach. If ever you met one, you'll find the peak of the type in Roberts. I
Eddie was discharged a water tender in 1921, the same ranking he
gained on nis re-enlistment, |
He came back home to his mother in Tacoma, visited Teddy's Re
treat, then located beneath the Tivoli, and asked Jack Connor, who
operated the gym, if he were interested in young fighters, |
Jack admitted he was and the kid later appeared on a small benefit |
card in Jack's gym. He looked very good and from that point clme'
a partnership that grew into a deep friendship, a tandem that had
ups and downs in the heat of action but which is now solid and firm
and everlasting in these more mellow years. ‘
Roberts fought his first Tacoma professional fight against Sailor |
Jack Kelly, and won. His first main event was against the danger
ous Travie Davis, one of the best welters or fighters, any weight, this
Northwest ever developed, |
And Eddie won magnificently, having the crafty, tough Davis in
the grit,
Then he beat Schuman and others and went on to knock out Joe
Dundee, soon after to gain the welter title, in one round, Dec. 4, 1926,
in Recreational Park, San Francisco,
It was that fight that bolted Eddie into the big money and Madison
Square Garden, |
Victor of Thriller-Diller . .. *
Early in Eddie’s career Jack sent him to Jack Russell, ([\e
veteran manager, in Los Angeles, where Eddie, only a boy in
his "teens, fought 10 times, winning seven by knockouts, '
Probably the greatest ring thriller in all fight history
of the Northwest was staged b;" Roberts and Lefty Cooper,
a s tof San Francisco.
r‘;'l)ig:gh:o“l'l::‘ r‘\’:l:h? l:xhat is now Crescent hall, 13th and Fawcett, !
then E street, Dec. 10, 1925, |
The contest ended in the fifth round, but every one of the preceding |
Younds ended with either Roberts or Cooper flat on his back in the
slop of the pit. ; 5 |
Roberts was down twice in the first round, and was on his spine,
arms out-stretched at the pell. He was carried to his corner by Connor. |
Still wobbly-legged when the second round got underway, Roberta
soon had Cooper down and had him on his back when the gong ended |
the heat,
Cooper was on his back when the third and fourth ended, and
Roberts was still groggy on his pins.
Soon after the [gila:ti.rtod, Eddie hit Cooper with & left hook that
spun him sideways, and then dropped in a "":‘“ right hand. That
ended the gory, thrill- ked, unbelievable battle.
Funny fhir;g, but ;r:r to that fight Eddie had dissipated no little
He was discouraged and wanted to quit. In fact, he had quit the .‘..m'
Jack, however, talked him into the match after Eddie had said: “Hell,
I'm through. can’t fight any more.”
“Boy, 5:"11 h:won‘t suitcd to fight. You're just a kid with a bright
future.”
Well Jack turned out to be quite a prophet. The guy really began
to fight afte t Cooper shindig, and shindig it was
