Talking It Over WITH JOE WILLIAMS

NEW YORK, Sept. 11. ARRIVING at the Biltmore to attend a wedding breakfast of—"’ouster, gifted British cartoonist, it was not surprising at all to find Dan McKetrick in complete charge of everything. Mci.as oeen that way since nis v.T.:er days with the Evening World when he shocked a staid metropoliten community by using an eightcolumn line over a first page sports story—'he first time such importance was ever attached to any athletic activity. a a a McKetrick Introduced the lady, Mias Mae Flynn, a rather rorgeou* creature, and proceeded forthwith to associate to himself a major part of the credit for the perfection of the matrimonial arrangements. ana M'KETRICK IB NOW ENGAGED IN THE ELUSIVE BUSINESS OF STICKING HOLES IN THE GROUND IN THE SOUTHWEST WITH THE OPTIMISTIC HOPE THAT OUT OF THESE HOLES SOME DAY WILL COME LARGE GEYSERS OF OIL. THOUCH M'KETRICK HAS GROWN A TRIFLE PUFFY AROUND THE WAIST AND THERE IS NOT AS MUCH HAIR ON HIS NOBLE PATE AS ONCE THERE WAS. HE IS STILL THE BAME VIBRANT. ACTICE. DOMINANT CHARACTER THE SPORTS WORLD USED TO KNOW TWC DECADES AGO. a a a HANDING me a thin stemmed glass that billowed out at the top like some fragile flower and into which a sparkling fluid was poured, McKetrick maneuvered me into an unoccupied corner of the room and began to tell me the life story of Tommy Webster. “There have been only two great sports cartoonists in the history of journalism.” babbled McKetrick. “Tad was one. Tommy is another.’’ ] With a gentle firmness I was forced I to inform McKetrick that I was not ! exactly unfamiliar with the Web- j ster art creations, that I had known ; the young Benedict for some time. a a a INDEED. AFTER THE THIN STEMMED GLASS HAD BEEN REFILLED I FOUND MYSELF GIVING M'KETRICK AN ARGUMENT ON ART. I REFUSED TO BELIEVE HE CONSISTENTLY COULD COMPARE THE LATE TAD AND WEBSTER. I HELD THAT TAD WAS CLOSER TO j THE MAN IN THE STREET. AS THE ; PHRASE HAS IT. AND THAT THE j BRITISH STAR COMBINED A SPIRITED TECHNIQUE WITH A SUBTLE SENSE OF HUMOR THAT MADE HIS APPEAL LESS GENERAL ALBEIT CERTAINLY DISTINCTIVE. "W'ELL, I SUPPOSE THE DAILY MAIL PAYS HIM $70,000 A YEAR ON ACCOUNT OF THE WAY HE DROPS HIS HAITCHES,” ROARED M'KETRICK. a a a I should have known hotter than to twlm out into anv sort ot controversy with McKetrick. Nobody ever won a gab rest from him. With no little difficulty 1 finallv swung: him around to a point where £e wa* willing to talk about himself. ana MC KETRICK is a member of the old school of promoters and fight managers. He was in Gold- j field In Tex Rickard’s day. He came into the metropolitan fight game; along with Charley Harvey and j others. He promoted a number of, important fights on the other side of the Atlantic, notable among which was a fight between Jack Johnson and Frank Moran for the heavyweight championship in 1913 in Peris. a a a THE NET BOX OFFICE RETURNS OF THIS FIGHT WAS $35,000. NONE OF THIS MONEY HAS BEEN PAID TO EITHER OF THE PRINCIPALS OR THE PROMOTER. McKETRICK HIMSELF TIED IT CP. HE CLAIMED MORAN DOUBLE-CROSSED HIM BY REFUSING TO SIGN A MANAGER'S CONTRACT WITH HIM. SO ON SOME SORT OF LEGAL TECHNICALITY McKETRICK WAS ABLE TO HOLD THE MONEY UP. a a a He can not get any of it unless Moran also collects and McKetrick, still feeling that he was the victim of an ungrateful fighter, says Moran never will collect. Incidentally, the original sum accumulating compound interest for fifteen years has now grown to more than $70,000. WOOD LEADS IN EAST New Jersey Golfer Scores 145 in P. G. A. Play.

Thrills Galore for Fans at Fort as Hackley Loses and Purvis Wins Lupica Biggest Surprise of Summer; Jackie Comes From Behind to Shade Seaman; Wallace Matched.

The customers at Ft., Harrison Tuesday night got w'ell repaid for their jaunt out to the fresh air arena and many of ’em were still discussing the entertainment today, for two of the best scraps of the season took place. Jimmie Hackley, local veteran lightweight, has had several surprise during his long career, but the one he received Tuesday probably wnl be jotted down in his scrap book as the biggest surprise of all. In other w’ords, Jimmie got outpointed decisively by Chuck Lupica, a pug out of Toledo who is put up in the manner of a fire plug. Lupica Upsets Guessers When Lupica entered the ring the fans figured he wouldn’t be in there long, but he made ’em change their guess in the third round and most of the remaining distance saw Hackley on the receiving end of a flock of punches. Hackley fought back, as is his style,, and tried gamely to fight off the “little shorty,” but Lupica “hounded” him constantly and the scrap developed into a thriller. It was about the outstanding upset of the summer. Hackley never gave up throughout and was still swinging gloves at the finish, though showing the marks of severe punishment on his face, with blood trickling from nose and mouth. The veteran deserves credit for giving his best, win or lose. Eight Rounds of Thrills The eight-round semi-windup Tuesday proved sensational, with Jackie Purvis, Kokomo, shading Johnny Seaman, Canadian welterweight, after being outboxed and out-foxed in the early rounds. It was a fight every moment, with both boys using everything they owned. For a time it looked as though Purvis was due for a sound licking, but he kept up his courage and by punching sharply finally solved Seaman’s style and in the sixth almost had the Canadian on the floor.
