Hammond 3oplers Get Small Margin

Gary Men Put Up Hard Fight, But Hammond's Cracks Are Too Fast.

(BY SPIKE. A picked team of Hammond bowlers journeyed to Gary Wednesday night, where they went up against five fast pin men of the steel town at the Pastime alley, and toy winning two pames out of a three-game series they now lay claim to the championship honors of Lake county. The games were exciting and were tome of the best that have beenjseen In Hammond or Gary in a long1 wliile. Both teams were primed for the occa

sion and were eager to win 'because the two teams had -clashed before in both

cities and it would be ithe result of

one of the teams giving up for the.

championship honors. It may be possible that the two teams may roll

; a.galn later In the season.

l"he fnal results showod .thait the

Hamraorfd five only won by a small ma

jority of 84 pins for a total of three

games. The results also showed tnat Hammond was superior in picking up pins, spares and difficult shots. In view of the fact that "the Hammond

team rolled on strange alleys they went home satisfied and' made an ave

rage of eight hundred pins each game.

Hammond took the first two games

by a majority of 101 pins. In ithe third

game Hammond fell down and lost by

a small total of 17 pins. In this game

Gary mad its high man score with a total of 203 pins. Fowler of Hammond captured the high individual

score with a total f 206 in his first game. The following scores were made:

New Law May Stop GoFight Illegal in Nevada Colo field, New, Jan. IS. That there will be no Johnson-Flynn fight in this state unless it is moved away from ithe 'boundary lines is the general opinion here today. following a statement by the attorney general. The official calls attention to tins revised crimes and punishment act passed by the last legislature, which virtually sets aside the 11,000 license for prize fights. Section 161 provide a penalty of from two to five years for principals and participants in any fight wlith or without deadly weapons. Should death result within a year all parties shall he deemed guilty of manslaughter and punished accordingly. This statute is an amendment to the old dueling law. It is Relieved, however, that the bout will be permitted under the law legalizing finish fights if It is held in some part of (the state where whatever financial benefit accompanying the contest will fall to Nevada and not to some other state. -

New York, Jan. 19. Knockout Brown was given the much abused popular decision over featherweight champion, Abe Attell. after ten rounds of milling last night. Brown deserves little" credit for his so-called victory, for he was accorded the decision of the ritrgsiders not on account of any ring skill displayed or any execution rendered, but 'because he. was willing to fight and did hit- best, while Attell evidently was in the ring for the sole purpose of going through ten rounds and collecting his end of the purse at the box office. Attell was a (business man pure and simple all the time he was in the ring. He did not give the public any more for it money than he had to and still preserve his own drawing powers. -He

row

the ring at times, only to sidestep or duck all of the dangerous blows that were started bis way. At other times

he would open up for a few .seconds and rock the K. O. person's head with his wonderful jobs and Jolts,, only ,to hide

himself at once (behind a perfect guard

and content himself with evading Brown's wild punches; Attell showed just enough of his wizardry to make Brown look foolish at times, but still the K. O. party never gave up trying to land a telling- 'blow. Attell came out of the ring without a mark, while Brown's nose, mouth and

eyes were 'badly damaged.

In the final round Attell cut loose for

about a minute and tied Brown .up in

knots. He sHnply showered the Dutch lightweight with all sorts of punches, but did not appear to take full advantage of his opening's. Attell fought very much as if he were saving up Brown for a return match. After the first round he had his man's peculiar style of attack solved to . nicety and the way he stopped Knockout's left was astonishing. He

YOUNG- SAYLOR

DEFEATS KELLY i Indianapolis', Ind., Jan. ,-19. Young Saylor had all the better of his tenround bout with Freddie Kelley last night. Kelley gave Saylor a warm argumenit.ibut Saylor mare than evened up the score. He sent Kelley to the

floor in the second and seventh rounds

and knocked him through the ropes in

the ninth. Both- were tired in the

tenth, and Saylor did not seem to have

the finishing punch.
