Rill!

New Star Floors Fireman Often, Dealing Out Terrific Beating; Referee Calls Halt With the Loser Helpless; Luther Will Meet Al Palzer Next.

Los Angeles, Dec. 11. After being knocked down twice in the sixteenth round, Jim Flynn was in sucn a helpless state that Referee Charley Eyton stepped in between the fireman and further punishment and decided In favor of Luther McCarty. This leaves the white hopes in possession of the field. Flynn, who ha been a stumbling block to would-be champions for years, has now been wiped from the heavyweight situation and It will be for Al Falser and Luther McCarty to decide who is best entitled

to succeed the descredited Jack Johnson as tho king of the topnotch class In pugilism.

The turn in last nignta arralr came in the ninth round. Trior to'lhat Flynn, in pursuance to his usual custom, had Jumped close with his arms wrapped around his head and held his own with the big- man from Nebraska. McCarty used a straight left which kept plunging like ft piston rod throughout th-.i fight. In the majority of cases it haij plumped against Flynn's forehead or had been blocked by Flynn's crossed

forearms. But there were times when it go through and left its mark on Flynn's face. McCarty used a short right at intervals, and this, too. was blocked more times than it was landed. When coming out of a clinch in the ninth round, however. Flynn left bis Jaw uncovered and McCarty nailed him on the point of the chin with the right. Flynn went to the floor, but arose a few seconds after the collapse. The effects of the

punch were with him. but he tried to cover up. McCarty must have lashed out at least a dozen times before he reached a vulnerable spot again. It was the same right hand punch that Luther employed, and Flynn went down again. Once more the fireman arose and

spread his legs to steady himself. McCarty went at him with both arms swinging. They became entangled in some way and the fireman was dragged to his knees. Flynn stood erect again and McCarty had no trouble now in reaching the fireman's face with both hands. Flynn's countenance was badly bruised and the crowd yelled to the xferee to stop the fight. Flynn dropped his arms and McCarty stood back, undecided what to do. The momen'ts respite seemed to help Flynn. He brightened up in a flash and when McCarty pressed in again, the fireman fought back and although his aim was none too sure, he was giving blow for blow with McCarty w"" the bell rang.

Flynn came up dazed for the tenth round and it !3 probable that the majority of the spectators expected to see

bout end in this particular spell of fighting. McCarty used atstraight left and then smashed rights against the jaw. Flynn fell toward his man and held on. Then McCarty drew back his right and drove a savage punch into

the body at the bell. It was not a foul blow, although 1 many of the crowd thought that It , was and shouted their belief. Flynn probably heard the yells, for he sank to the floor, dragging McCarty with him. McCarty was up In an instant, but Flynn lingered there and acted as though he had received an unfair blow. Referee Eyton began to count the seconds and then the fireman knew his mute appeal was ignored. He gathered himself up and as McCarty rushed at him. tore loose with both gloves.

By this time Flynn's head had cleared and as the round ended he was fighting back spitefully. From that point on McCarty was in the lead and the battle had a onesided look. McCarty's left kept shooting out with monotonous regularity and the proportion of rights to lefts was about one in five. in the latter rounds Flynn forgot to cover up. His one idea was to jump close and turn the scale with a right swing. McCarty, however, had the fireman's measure to a nicety and baffled him at every point. In the last round of all Flynn was rushing toward the Nebraskan with his arms down when a smart crack of the right tumbled him. He was up, only to meet another ricrht and go to the floor again. Then. u a'ready stated. '- was so far gone that the referee stopped the battle.

(BY SPIKE.) The best boxing card that has ever been staged by the Hammond Order of Moose will be put on Thursday evening at their clubrooms. on State street.

Three ten-round bouts Is the excellent card that has heen completed by

Matchmaker Campbell, and considering the list of scrappers and their prominence in the fistic world, the card

promises to outclass all others that

have been given '.n the past.

Tommy Gary, who has been before

the eyes of the fight fans for many moons and hailed as one of the most promising lightweights of the country, will be one of the principals in the fast ten-round windup. In the oth

er corner Artie Stewart of Hammond will face the clever battler and the mill Itself will be worth going miles to see. Since holding Bat Nelson to a draw at

the Moose stag several wesks ago

Stewart has been put through some severe stunts by Trainer Jessup and when he steps Into the riner next

Thursday night he may surprise even

his closest friends. Stewart may have

a little advantage over Gary, who will be on his way from New Orleans, where he fought last night. Word comes from Gary's headquarters that he Is also in top-notch shape and la

confident of doing something when he makes his debut in Lake county. The result of the ten-round semiwindup between Eddie "Wagner of Hammond and lied Sheehan of Chicago Heights Is nlso being watched with much interest, both men being about as evenly matched as could be. While Sheehan has had several bouts in the

past two months Wagner has not been matched since his ten-round encounter with Tony Concl of Gary. But Wagner has not been Idle all this time and with constant gym work has developed a punch that Is a dreamer. Eddie's friends are placing a lot of confidence in him and the chances are he will not disappoint them In the least. Admir

ers of Sheehan state that prospects

look just as bright for the Chicago Heights boy, who has developed a few stunts that he has not pulled oft before. For the curtain raiser Young Ritchie and Sweeney have been signed up. Little need be said of these two boys as It will be remembered they furnished one of the best preliminaries at the last Moose stag that has been staged In many a day. They were about as -evenly matched as could be and were at It every minute of the six rounds. Arrangements are being made to open up1 the doors at 7:30 sharp.

Fackey McB"arland astonished those who watched him go through his train

ing paces for Eddie Murphy at the Nate Lewis gymnasium yesterday. The yards star toiled so long and so hard that a bystander remarked: "McFarland must intend to give that Murphy boy a quick licking if he can put It over. I've seen Packey train many a time, but never as hard as he did today." Here is what McFarland did during the afternoon. Boxed four rounds with Willie Schaefer at top speed, traveled four more, rounds with the clever little Jimmy Walsh, punched the bag for fifteen minutes, tugged at the pulleys for ten minutes, skipped the rope five hundred times and shadow boxed for four rounds. That is some workout, take It from us. And the yards marvel finished on the bit and perspiring freely. He took off a chunk of weight yesterday and will be down around 137 pounds when he clambers through the ropes to stick his hands up in front of the Boston bulldog. There is no question but that Packey is out to do better against Murphy than Jack Britton did at Boston. Recent criticism has aroused the ire of the wonderful boxing Irishman and he

will be a fighting Turk for fair when the first bell rings at Kenosha next Monday evening.
