Jimmy, Floored Twice in First Period, Comes Back Gamely and Piles Up Big Lead
Butte. Mont.. June 14. Jimmy Clabby of Hammond last night eliminated Eddie McGoorty of Oahkosh in the race for the middleweight championship. Clabby won a referee's decision over McGoorty at the end of twelve of the fastest rounds of fighting ever witnessed in a Butte ring. It was a great fistic treat and came as a climax to Miners' day. The fight nearly went the other way in the first round when, with wicked hooks to the jaw, McGoorty sent Clabby down twice, the first time for the count of seven, and on the second occasion for the count of nine. It was a merciful bell for the Hammond lad, as had the round progressed a minute longer it is doubtful if Clabby could have withstood the onslaught of the Wisconsin man, who is a great firstround fighter, especially if he can connect solidly. Clabby's recuperative powers and McGoorty's usual slump enabled Jim to come back strongly In the second round with a stunning shewing that set the crowd wild. He carried the fight to McGoorty every second of the time, driving in blows with piston-like regularity. In two rounds he had the Oshkosh warrior in distress. Clabby later on took to disregarding the right and left pokes which McGoorty continually drove toward his chin, seemingly being content to take a jab on the chin to get an opportunity to land' himself. It was evident that McGoorty lost his punch soon after the first round. Clabby was first to enter the- arena and was wildly cheered. McGoorty also was accorded an ovation, but It lacked the volume of welcome given his opponent. Even money was offered at the ringside. McGoorty weighed in at 158 and Clabby at 151, giving McGoorty a big advantage. Referee Mcintosh then announced he would . disqualify both men unless flabby and McGoorty fought every
foot of the way. This, ha said, he would do because of persistent rumors that the pair of well-known middleweights had concluded to go along carefully for twelve rounds and make it look like a draw. The Fight by Roaada. The fight by rounds follows: Round one They proceed to mix it Immediately their gloved hands had parted after the usual handshake. McGoorty put a left lightly to Clabby's head and a moment later swung a hard right at Clabby, who stepped cleverly out of the way. After a rapid exchange
McGoorty hooked a left to Clabby's Jaw and the latter went down for the count of seven. He arose only to be sent to the floor again with the same left hook. Clabby scrambled up gamely and with a wicked right swing staggered McGoorty. It was McGoorty's round. Round two They lunged into a clinch, following a harmless series of right and left pokes, and waltzed around the ring. McGoorty kept shoving his left glove into Clabby's face, but Clabby more than evened matters up with punishing Jolts to McGoorty's head. They jarred Eddie several timts. The round was even. Round three Clabby's wonderful recuperative powers aroused the crowd to enters. Lighter on his feet than his opponent, he kept dancing around McGoorty, and with a left poke to the nose he drew first blood. Clabby here fought like a demon and in a close exchange worked both gloves like piston rods. McGoorty reached Clabby's neck with a resounding wallop, the smack of which was heard all over the arena, but he failed to fease Clabby. Honors were even. Round four Clabby, lightning-like, assumed the aggressive, landing a straight right to McGoorty's head that rocked It. Eddie came back with a right hook that reached Clabby's head. They clinched and resumed fighting in

EAST CHICAGO
TACKLES JOUET The East Chicago Giants are booked to play the strong Jollet Standards ball club this Sunday, June 16, at t p. m., at East Chicago's ball park. The Jollets are in demand on account of their strong lineup and reputation, they having won the majority of their games out of town. Chuck Hanson, who pitched in the WisconsinIllinois league for four years, has pitched part of their games, while they also have Big Tom Inglis, a former member of the East Chicago club. They are therefore well fortified In the pitching line. Delaney, lately of Roseland, is catching. Another well-known member of the Joliets Is Wallace, who Is holding down third base. Altogether they have a well-balanced team, and judging by the game they put up against Gary a few weeks ago It looks as though they will make things hum around East Chicago Sunday. The result of this game will give the fans a little dope on the comparative strength of Gary's and East Chicago's ball clubs. Last Sunday East Chicago finished Its with Hammond, beating them by the score of 4 to 3. Hammond started scoring In the first Inning, getting one run across the pan on two hits and a walk, but East Chicago tied It up in their half of the first inning. Black led off with a clean single and Schrein-

in the second inning, getting two tallies across on a hit by Rhode, a walk to Lasser and Maybaum's double and Fowler's single, netting two runs. East Chicago came back with one run on Bradlng's double and Coleman's single. Hammond held the lead at 3 to 2 until the fifth inning, when Black beat out an infield hit, stole second and scored on Pedersen's drive over second, tlelng up the score, 3 and 3, in the seventh Young opened up with a clean single to right field. Black laid down a perfect bunt, putting Cy on second. Schrelner then doubled over center fielder's head, scoring Young with what proved to be the winning run. After the second Inning Hammond could do little or nothing with Cy, although they hit him freely in the first two innings. Hammond tried its best to win one of the series by obtaining the services of Fred Bergman and Art Krueger of the Northern Indiana league last year. They also strengthened up In several other spots, but the best they could do was to give East Chicago a close battle. The East Chicago ball team has undoubtedly proven to be one of the strongest, if not the strongest, semiprofessional club ever put together in and around Chicago. They have the following proud record of winning ten games and losing one to the American
