BEATS

A 150-POUND FOE

Easton, Pa., Feb. 18. Battling Nelson, fighting Joe Burke of Wilkesbarre, a heavy Welterweight, last night, gave one of the best ten-round exhibitions of strenuous fighting ever seen in this city. The Dane kept up his usual aggressive tactics and gave his opponent a bad lacing. Burke was substituted for his brother, a lightweight, who injured his hand, and rather than disappoint the big crowd Nelson agreed to fight the 150-pounder. The Dane had Burke groggy at several times. Burke fought .the foulest fight ever seen here, biting Nelson through the flesh of the left arm in the fourth round. Nelson had every round and was never in danjKr. Burke was groggy at the finish.

Kenosha, Wis., Feb. 18. The city of

Kenosha, by Its common council, put the seal of approval on boxing shows In Kenosha last night, when, by a vote of 8 to 7. a resolution was passed granting a permit for a boxing show to be given under the auspices of the Kenosha Athletic club at the Coliseum here between the dates of March 3 and March 20.

The bouts are to be pulled off under

the direction of the police department of Kenosha and promoters have been promised Immunity from prosecution so long as the bouts are within the limit of the law.

Promoter 'John E. Keating of the

Kenosha club appeared before the council and declared that the bouts

would be clean, that there would be absolutely no objectionable features, and that he planned to bring men who

were champions in their class to Ke

nosha.

The discussion was largely on the

conditions prevailing at the McFar-

land-Murphy show pulled off In the city some time ago. The promoters gave assurance to the council that there would be no repetition of the features which were objected to at that time.

It is said that for a wlndup for the

show Keating already has secured the

services of Johnny Coulon .nd that It

will be the biggest card ever put on In

Kenosha.

Aid. Hegeman, who opposed the pas-

sage of the permit, insisted that if the

permit was granted it would be with

the understanding that the fire depart

ment would be on hand with fire hose to clear the streets In case such action was necessary.

This cigarette has won the good-will of the country.

Corbett has taken a great Interest In

young McAllister. Last Thursday the Olympic club amateur fought an ex

hibition with Joe Herrlck of Chicago, and Corbett was a rlngslder. So Impressed was he by McAllister's work that he did not hesitate to voice his admiration.

The meeting of McAllister and Herrlck was the feature event of a reception accorded Corbett at the Olympic club. The day had been set apart for

a luncheon for the ex-champion, who was appearing at a local playhouse. While the plans for the reception were

being made some one struck on the

happy thought of staging a bout. Mc

Allister and Herrlck both were willing and a three-round setto quickly was arranged.

Robert McAllister, a young stenograph

er In a local Are Insurance office, fol

lowers of boxing on the Pacific coast

believe that they have the most prom lslng piece of middleweight boxing ma

chinery ever turned but "In California. McAllister, who is only U years old. is a member of the Olympic club. He has

been boxing In the amateur middle

weight ranks and has won every ring

engagement with ease.

McAllister's success has prompted

him, on the advice of James J. Corbett, the former -.world's heavyweight

champion, to decide to enter the pro

fessional ranks, and on March 12, in

Oakland, he will make his first "pro" appearance, fighting Willie Meehan over the twelve-round route.

derstood that a bill Is ready for the two houses which will permit the parlmutuel system of betting.

Milwaukee, Wis., Feb. 18. Bob Moha,

Milwaukee's sturdy ringman, gave Johnny Thompson, the Sycamore cyclone, a severe lacing In their ten-

round battle in Frank Mulkcrn's Hippodrome arena here last night. The bout went the scheduled limit, but Thompson was a sadly battered warrior when the final bell clanged. Only bis well-known sameness and endurance permitted him to stick through the bad halt hour. A big crowd saw the battle, which was the first to be staged in the new commission class of 175 pounds established by the New Tork boxing commission.Moha, on winning the popular verdict, announced that he was willing to meet anybody In the world

at the weight. Both men looked fat and stocky when they squared away, but Moha proved to be In the better trim after they got into action. Thompson packed altogether too much fat around his midsection and it halted him up materially. He was much slower than In his good days, and Moha had little trouble finding him. And anybody Moha can hit right along he'll beat, for Bob is a terrific puncher and a tremendous punisher. Thompson fought valiantly until the last gong, but was up against a tough

er article than he bargained for. Try

as he would when he could not cope with the fighting artillery of the Milwaukee mauler, and was forced to ac

cept defeat. ! It was a rough, tough battle, full of action, and delighted the crowd which filled the arena. In the first preliminary, Kid Leonard and Joe Arend fought a four-round draw. They met at 138 pounds. Eddie Moha of Milwaukee outpointed Jack Gorman In the second preliminary. The Cream City miller knocked his opponent down twice and landed the cleaner and more punishing punches. They met at 133 pounds. Matty McCue of Racine kept up his winning streak by stopping Spider

Winkler of Minneapolis in the third round. McCue's body punches proved the undoing of the Gopher miller, and the referee stopped the bout when Winkler was in a helpless condition on the ropes. McCue's victory certainly entitles him to be ranked as one of the leading featherweights in the game. McCue and Winkler met at 124 pounds ringside. Young Tinkey of Cudahy, Wis., won the decision over Mike Graham of Manistee in the eight-round semi-windup.

It was a mauling match from start to

finish, with neither being able to land a telling wallop.

RIVERS FAVORITE OVER K. 0. BROWN Los Angeles, Cal., Feb. 18. Joe Rivers will be an overwhelming favorite over Kayo Brown for their fight next Saturday afternoon unless some Brown money shows on the market mighty soon. Opening a 10 to 9 favorite last week, odds on the Mexican have gradually tightened, until today Rivers" is quoted by all betting commissioners at 10 to 7. "I expect to fret 2 to 1 for my money," declared Dan Morgan, Brown's manager, several days ago, and It begins to look as though "Dumb Dan" will get it. Rivers' sensational workout of yes

terday seems to have made him the

choice of local bettors in the event that

the bout goes the scheduled distance. About the only chance credited to

Brown Is via the knockout route. He is an awkward miller and some of Rivers' adimrers fear the Mexican will find It difficult to adjust himself to Brown's style. , This might enable Brown to land on Rivers' jaw hard enough to win the fight. The Dutchman's chances of being able to put over a sleep wallop are looked upon as slight and a wager at 3 to 1 was laid today that he would win Inside of ten rounds. Brown and Rivers put in the usual day of hard training at their respective camps today. Trobably 1,000 spectators were at Brown's Venice camp during the afternoon.
