With two men on Rathburn lets out for a home run which net only cleared the fenc twenty feet but also took the heart out of the Stars. Toung, the Harbor pitcher, was at his best not allowing ojie man to walk. Allhouse Is another man the Harbor 13 proud of. getting 3 Ijlts and pulling a few sensations from the air.

Jim Clabby, nr.. of Hammond today received a copy of The Referee of Sydney, Australia, giving an account by W. F. Corbett of the Jimmy ClabbyTommy Vren battle which "the Indiana boy won makinj; him the champion of the country. It says in" part:

"We have a new middleweight chain- j pion in the rerson of Jimmy Clabby. and he is the first American to hold anj

Australian title. Fritz Holland was once, for some time, wrongly, and without the remotest foundation ki fact, credited with the ownership of the same distinction. This, too, while Les Darcy, the legitimate winner of the honors, was yet w ith us and going strong. "Before a larger crowd than Is usually seen at the Stadium nowadays, Clabby, on Saturday night last, proved a greater force than Tommy Vren, from whom the 160-pound crown was wrested, and his wider and longer experience of th eways of the 24-foot square enabled him. for the most part, to outgeneral his "adversary slightly where nearly all the battling occurred t closer quarters, and in holds, as a rule. But he found Uren a hard nut to crack, so hard that, reckoning up the points occasionally presented something of an abstruse calculation. Referee Arthur Scott was now and again seen between rounds with his considering cap on. and thinking hard before he noted his impressions in figjures.

"The spectacle was more of a scrimmage than a boxing bout, but it was a fifrht all the time, and such a one that only good, resourceful boxers could supply in the circumstances. ailssll Hurled. "The verdict in Clabby's favor was the signal for a tumult of applause and hostility, the indorsement being louder and more general than the opposttton. Amid the excitement some cowardlybrute hurled a tumbler across the ring. The missile appeared to cannon oft Clabby's leg and spend its force upon somebody sitting near the southwest corner of the fighting space, where the glass broke into fragments. Never have I seen such alhing done before. The days of hurling bottle9 and other similarly hurtful objects after a fistic contest had passed prior to my first appearance at the ringside. "A comparative lull occurred, for a moment or two. then a storm of boohoos suddenly arose in theback part of the structure, but this, a counter demonstration, smothered quickly and completely. Onlookers far from the ring were unable to discern all that happened during the greater portion of a severely strenuous struggle between two most determined athletes. T'ley did not see the work the boxers put in while fighting chest against chest, and endeavoring by holding and in other ways to thwart the offensive as much as possible."

COLTS WIN. CLOSE GAME, STOP HftLLY OF VISITORS

Two wild throws by the Margolias decided a game in favor o the Scatena Colts, 3 to 1, at Columbia park in Hammond. Sunday, aft the visitors pitcher had struck out fifteen men and his team mads? eight hits to the locals'

I two. A fast double play, Newman to

Simon to Lynch, broke up the Margolias' rally in the third inning. Flynn pitched a heady game and kept the hits

scattered, but it was a hard game for Gotts, the Margolia pitcher, to lose. Over five hundred fans saw the game. The score: Ecatena Colts. R. II. E. Margolias 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 8 4 Scatenas 1 0 2 0 0 0 0 0 x 3 2 8 Batteries Gotts and Lavelle; Flynn and Hess.

PEERLESS A. C. WINS DOUBLE-HEADER (By A 7 AN.) The Peerless A. C. of East Chicago performed the remarkable feat of defeating two teams in one day. The victims this time . were the Interstate Giants of East Chicago and the Indiana Harbor Triangles. The first game, pitched by Lawrence, was a brilliant shoutout, 13 to 0. The second game, however, pitched by Romeo George, proved more difficult. The final score was 12 to 9. The stars of the two games were Arnold Klempner, who walloped two triples and a double; Mike Luketic. who recHed a home run. a triple and a double, and Lester Reed, who was ac-

THE STANDING

NEW TORK, June 5. Frank Moran and Carl Morris went ten rounds last night end Morris won. Neither showed enough caliber to make him a formidable opponent for Champion Willard. It was Morris fight practically all the ny. In only one round the fifth did Moran do any effective work. In that round he had the giant from the southwest wabbling from -a har,d punch to the Jaw and the crowd was urging the blond fighter to put his man out, but Moran was unequal to the occasion. Morris came back and in close quarters he forced all the fighting throughout the remainder of the ten rounds. In the eighth and ninth rounds, Morris had Moran in a bad way when he sent him against the ropes and followed it up by cutting the Pittsburgher's face to ribbons with short arm Jolts that had plenty of force behind them. Morsn tried hard to put over his famous "Mary Ann." but the big Oklahoma giant kept out of harm's way, and when Moran appeered dangerous he came into close quarters and against this style of fighting Moran was helpless.

A knockout might have resulted in the final round, but Morris with a big lead tucked away, rlayed safe.

counted with IS put-outs at second. The Interstate Giants received only three clean hits from Lawrence George and only three different men reached third. The fielding and the timely hitting In this games were remarkable. A home run was knocked by Mike Luketic with two men on bases. Later on he pelted the ball for a triple, again with two men on. Arnold Klempner repeated the feat twice, once with three men on and again with two men on, The Triangles, however, registered eight hits and displayed a better brand of baseball than the Giants. They tricked the Peerless into a double play but the consistent walloping of the Peerless men proved too much for them. Cecil Cohen, their star twirler. was taken from the slRb in the fifth inning when Steffen took his place. The Peerless A. C. will play the Delias and Garber next Sunday at Indiana Harbor ball park. This team has already defeated the Peerless, but the brand of baseball the Peerless has since been producing will insure a better game than the former.

In these parlous days of biff, bingo and bang, a glove man who weighs only 150 pounds sticks pretty close to his division. ' One usually thinks of Bob Fitzsimmons as one of those "terrible heavyweights." They remember his pictures as depicting a stripping six footer, with enormous shouldets, arms and hands. They remember his defeats of such giants as Peter Maher. Tom Sharkey, Jim Corbett. Ed Dunkhorst and Gus Ruhlin. And they form an opinion that the Australian blasksmith was one of the Willard type of fighting machines a giant of flesh end bone. It makes Ruby Bob all the more remarkable, then, when it becomes known that he usually battled the giants of the irng at 155 pounds; that he never weighed over 160 In his life and in most of his fights, he weighed less than 150! The size of Mike Gibbons. Tackey McFarland. Mike O'Dowd, Ted Lewis. Jack Britton and only a few pounds heavier than Freddie Welsh' Just digest this statement, which is almost unbelievable. Imagine tha laaiy Australian blacksmith battling' men of tha Jeffries and Dnnihorst type when hs weighed only six pounds more than did Freddie welsh, lightweight champion, when the latter fought Johnnie Kilbane In New Tork In April 1 Fitzsimmons, who Is making the 1917 tour with the Sells-Floto circus, today is the aame active, hard hitting boxer who Is conceded to be the champion of all champions. Although almost 51 years old. he still boxes with a vim ami vigor and. with Boh. jr.. himself a physical giant. Is able to put up a fast and clever exhibition of the Queensbury code. He weighs only slightly more tahn 160 rounds today, showing that Fitz has taken good care of himself since his days of ring activity. Fitzsimmons and his son will be at Gary with the Sells-Floto circus Thursday, June 7.

SPIKE KELLY FLOORS JOE KOSKE IN FIFTH AURORA, ILL.. June 5. Spike Kelly. Chicago, knocked out. Joe Koske, Pittsburgh, in the fifth round last night. The fight was even for the first four rounds. In the semi-windup Frank Jamati, Chicago, better known as Kid Williams, knocked out Battling Welling, Milwaukee, in the fourth round.

! weight champion, w as accordded an en-i

thusiastio reception when he entered the ring at the Olympia A. A. last night for his six round battle with Joe Welsh of this city. The new lightweight champion gave a spltr.did exhibition, outclassing the local lad in all six rounds.

Leonard simply played with AVelsh '

during the first four rounds, using his left to Welsh's nose and mouth. In the fifth round Benny chased Welsh around the ring, while the fans shouted to Leonard to cut loose. Leonard respond ed by using his opponent as a punching bag. The bell found Welsh hanging on. Again In the sixth Leonard went after Welsh with his left, mixing ina few hard rights to the body, and again Welsh wilted before the champion's attack.
