JOHNSON BATTLE

I New York. Dec. 2 8. Hope on, oh white race! Carl Morris may be it yet, though probably not soon. With all the fury of an offended behemoNi. the Oklahoma locomotive set upon Tom Kennedy at the Kmpire A.

C. last night and gave him a most ln-

rtistic pounding through ten rounds.

The Sapulpa man must have been

ut to get revenge for what Jim Flynn

did to him. Showing marked improve

ment and some agijlty on his ponderous . feet, he buffeted the curly-haired New Yorker full sore every step of the

way. At the finish he had Kennedy

uncli drunk and Tom's face 7 was

masked with blood. A little further

Morris' showing was really a big

urprlse. Kennedy was expected to

but Carl beat him to it and kept the

that Tom had no chance to box. Mor

both sides of the head and crowded mighty punches into his middle.

New York. Dec. ?8. Owen Moran, ' the English fighter, arrived from England on the Olympic last night sounding defiance to everybody in the lightweight division of pugilism. i "X have come here to make a match with Ad Wolgast," said Moran, "and I hope to defeat him or any others who regard themselves as champions. To prove that I am capable, I will take on other men in Wolgast class and deal with them first, giving away weight to some of them and fighting any man at 133 pounds."

hands full trying to pry the mastodons apart. The clean breaks bothered Morris quite a little. Morris plunged in with gigantic wal

lops and during the first, second and ! third rounds he had the supposedly I more agile Kennedy piled up against the ropes. . I The fourth round was fairly even and in the fifth Kennedy seemed to re-1 cover from his astonishment and fought back. He had a shade in this round. In the sixth he found his footing and dodged some of the heaves of the Oklahoman. but Carl kept martihing in stolidly, driving Tom before him with large orven swings. From then ons to the finish Morris was best, but he had nothing on Tom in gameness. Carl's great-left told atall times and he had the greater punching power. They frequently locked together, head on, In the middle of the ring, and swung like a pair of grizzlies. It was an exciting struggle throughout and Morris demonstrated that he Is surely coming along with some distance to go, however. P. S. Beware, John A, Johnson be

Brief Bits of Sporting News.

BOXING. Al Kaufman will endeavor tonight

to sh.ow that he Is still one of the class

iest of the white heavyweights. He will take on a tough person, Al Palzer, for ten rounds in New York, and the outcome will be awaited with interest.

Palzer Is rated fast enough to give Kaufman a thorough tryout. If Kaufman Isn't right he probably is In for a trimming.

The Dixie Kid and Harry Lewis, 'the

American middleweight, have been

matched to fight on Jan. 18 in Liverpool. George Carpenter, the French champion, will meet the victor in the

English bout.

Jimmy Howard, the Chicago middle

weight, left last night for Pittsburg, where he fights Jack Dillon Saturday.

Jack said yesterday he already was in great trim, would have no trouble doing the 122 pounds ringside and that he expected at least to hold the champion even. Mickey Sheridan is recovering from an attack of yellow jaundice and will not fight for a month of so. He had a chance to box Freddie Daniels at Peoria last night, but was forced to refuse. Willie Ritchie and Morris Bloom

went three dandy rounds at O'Connell's yesterday. Ritchie is in great trim for his clash with Paul Kohler at Cleveland Monday night next. BASEBALL. Jack Keary, who is being boomed for the presidency of the W.-I. league, is

fifteen years and, his friends think he ought to make a good leader for th

league. The Boston Nationals yesterday released Pitcher Patsy Flaherty to the Rochester team of the Eastern Meague. Patsy was sold under an optional agreement for $300. the Boston team to recall him in 1913 if it wants him back. ' President Ward of the Boston team has given out his club's training plans. Boston will go south about March 14 and train two weeks at Augusta, Ga. Games will be played with Yale, Princeton and Georgetown. No Punday exhibition contests will be booked.

Kansas City ' Moa Dec. 28. FrnnV

Gotch, the Iowa farmer, champion wrestler of the world, pinned Alec

Munro, the English champion, to the

mat twice last night in 20 minutes and

5 seconds before a. crowd of 8,000 Wrestling fans. The first fall was gained in 12 minutes," while it took the Iowa farmer only 2 minutes and 5 seconds to gain the second. A half nelson and crotch hold, a favorite Gotch grip, brought the downfall of the English champion In each tussle. At the" sound of the first bell Mun

ro plunged at Gotch, but the champion wasn't there. No whit discouraged the big Scotchman chased after Gotch and

nnaiiy grasped him with a regular gorilla embrace and dangled him in the air. Gotch descended with safety. Munro then became, rough. Evidently Gotch didn't care for that brand of treatment. He opened up with his best and gave Munro a sample of his class. Munro was on the defensive from then on almost entirely and finally was caught In a grip from which there was no. escape. The second fall was the same thing over again. Dave Porteeus was the referee.
