Freddy Kelly Takes Matters in Own Hands and
Prevents Another Thomas-Leonard Spectacle.
Local Boy Was No Match for George Chaney
By ROBERT
F RUDDY KIJl.Lil. manager nt lerry .uf
Govern, qualified for (special nnd lion
erary mention Saturday night when lie
ttopped the uneven battlo between his man
and George Chaney nt the. National A C
1 II v ll v luuriii
round, Instead of
Allowing Terry to
take nn unneces
sary beating, Kel
ly tossed in tho
sponge. Mcu ov
er n was not
knocked out, but
It was only a
question of time
beforo be would
have tnken the
count for good
lie was a trine
dazed, but ready
to get, up on Ills
feet to tnko mare
punishment. Ho
would not quit.
Kelly's act In
tossing the sponge
MAXwnt.h Into the ring Is
something for other managers to follow.
There Is no need of allowing n game
boy to take a brutal beating when ho
Is In nc condition tn protect !ilinelf As
toon as a contest becomes one-sided and It
Is only a matter of n few seconds before
he Is knocked unconscious, It should be stop,
ped by the referee, If the handlers of the
boxer 'hacn't sense enough to stop It them
telle". I do not claim that boxing has any
particular elevating Influence, but It Is a
harmless and qulto Interesting amusement
as long as the gory brutality Is eliminated
Too many managers are seeking their 25
per cent "cut" regardless of what the boxer
can do and who he meets. These managers
shrug their shoulders when their boys step
out of their class to meet a hnrd foe and
jay, "Well, let blm take a beating. I am
not getting hurt " No, they are not getting
hurt themselves, but they are hurting the
boxing game In Philadelphia, and It Is up
to the promoteis to bring this sort of match
making to an abrupt end. The promoters
nre making money out of boxing It Is to
their own Interest to see that the sport Is
kept clean
The Thomas Slaughter
We have spoken our little piece regarding
the slaughter of Charles Thomas and noth
ing more need be added Put allow us to
drag It In for a moment Just to show by
comparison how that grueling, sickening,
bloody, one-sided match could have been
Btagcd without leaving a bad taste In the
mouths of the spectators. The referee or
the manager or lvindlcix of Thomas could
have tos.cd the sponge in the ring any time
after the fouith round and saved Thomas
from the ignominy of being knocked out
and the audience fioni witnessing a scene
that should have been staged In a slaughter
house.
This tosjltig in the sponge seems a simple
thing, hut how many times have you seen
It done in Philadelphia bouts? These
srav en-faced, hard-headed, money-grasping
hand er3 sit stolidly In the corners, calmly

SCRAPS ABOUT SCRAPPERS
-By LOUIS
FRI2DDY Kllt.l.Y feel much worse over
Terry McOovern's four-round technical
knockout by George Chaney than the de
feated boxer himself. Saturday night at
the National Club, when McGovern left the
ring after Kelly had tettnlnated the one
tided contest by sizzling a wet sponge near
the prone body of his protege, Terry Bhowed
no signs of downhiartedness. His face, un
marked despite Chancy's terrific thumps,
beamed with smiles, and he nodded cheer
fully to his many friends who crowded
around tho ringside to sympathize with him.
He appealed us if lie didn't want any sym
pathy HoSiever, this was not so with Kelly,
as McGovcrn'8 manager and pal assisted the
boxer from the ring. Kelly's eyes were full,
and It looked ns If he would burst Into tears.
It was evident that Kelly felt McOovern's
defeat lay entlro'y on his shoulders; he was
the one who made the match and should
burden whatever blame there was In the
defeat, There arc few managers now who
eeem to have the same feeling toward their
boxers. McOovcrti was entliely outclassed
by Chancy, and no one In the audlenco was
aware of this fact better than Kelly. Ilather
than see his man beaten Into unconscious
ness Kelly did the only best thing: toss up
the sponge. And In doing so, Freddy's act
ahou'd be commended, and deserves even
more credit than Chaney for his victory.

V. MAXWELL
watching a boxer take a beating while they
tlgurc how much money they will get from
the box ortlcc A little thing like tossing the
sponge into the ring Is furthermost from
their thoughts. Sometimes they even fall
to wash the blond on" the boxer's face be
tween the round" 1 remember one night
when a preliminary boy went through six
bard rounds and his seconds failed to pro
vldo a sponge. They didn't need It. so why
worry about tho boxer?
It is up to the clubs to Insist Hint ex
perienced men net hs advisers to the boja
in tho ling. If those "kids" ate allowed to
run rampant the game will suffer 11 blow
from which It will neur recover
Kelly Is Not Excilcd
S.iturdaj night Freddy Kel'y wns stand
ing beside me when Mcdovern was dropped
in the third lound. Terry had made one
nt his bull-like rushes and Chaney met blm
with n terrific left smash to the chin. Tho
local boy was lifted off his feet and crashed
to the Moor I turned to Kellv to see what
ho would do.
Freddy was not the least bit excited He
saw IiIh man stretched out on the Moor and
grabbed the sponge from the water bucket
When McC.overu pulled himself together at
the count of five he aro"-e to one kiue.
Kellv turned to the timekeeper and asked
"flow much lime befote the mtind Is
over?"
"Forty seconds.' was the iepl
"Terry doesn't seem to be In bad shape. '
said Kelly. "I'll wait and see how he acts."
Jlcdovern went down again, but this time
he wasn't hit He took the full count and
arose much stronger. Near the end of the
round he diopped the third time and seemed
to be In fair shape at the bell.
Saved From Punishment
A rest of one minute does wonders for a
trained hover, and sometimes he recovers
completely from a knockdown. Mcllovern
was in good condition, and when he faced
Chaney nt the beginning of the fourth round
he had almost as much speed as In the first
Kelly was watching him cloelv. warning
him to keep on the defensive and tiy to
avoid that left-hand wallop about to be
launched by the r.altlmorean Trr Hieil
to keep nwa. but Chanev kept afier him.
Suddenly he drove. that left to the body
and McOovern's arms (hopped His chin
was unguatiled for an Instnnt, and George
whipped his left to that spot and once
inoio the local boy went to tho Hoot
That was enough for Kelly. He saw
that his man was not knocked out. as
Teny was looking at blm for further In
structions, llefore Jack McGulgan counted
two the sponge was hurled Into the ring and
the bout ended then and there Mctlovetn
was not matked. his face was not covered
with blood and he possessed all of his
senses. He knew as well as any one else
that he was no match for the lialtlnmre
slugger and he was satisfied So was tho
crowd. There's no disgrace In stopping a
bout like that, and If a few more managers
follow Kelly's c'tample the boxing game
will Improve.

The feature of Saturday's tennis matches
was the annual trlstate play between Wil

always make the occasion of the other's
visit a gala one. Instead of the regulation
sl ptavers on each team. It Is always en
deavored to have ten piavcis on a side. On
Satin day one of the members of the Cyn
wyd team missed (he train, and consc
uucntly the teams lined up with nine n'.uvcis
each.
It wns arranged, as heretofore, that only
the Hist six singles and the (lrsl thicc
doubles would count In the result, as far
as the trlstate standing Is concerned, and
the remainder would count mcicly as un.
olllcial Interclub play.
Cynwyd won the trlstate encounter by
eight matches to one and the tinolllci.il
collective nlfalr by ten matches tn three

ability, the opposing team directed its at

OK AI.l. Hie snots 111 llin golfer's bag, the
most thrllllngly satisfying one, both to
Players and onlookers, Is tho drive Tils
shot perfectly hit gives a delightful feeling
off the club, and the rhythmic movement
of the plaver, followed by the long, ariowy
llight of the hall tluough tile blue, is a
spectacular sight much appreciated by gal

being the llrst shot to every hole, and when

follow a good dtlve with a better one bo
will have an Immense psychological ad
vantage Tho golfer who uses iron from the tee
has come In for a good deal of criticism,
but If the bole or course is not of champion
ship length, or In championship condition,
a player hardly can be blamed for using a
club suited to the work. Driving with a
wooden club Is for distance, and It distance
is needed nnd a player Is straining with an
Iron he is not using the club best suited for
his wotk and Is trving to co!er up a weak
ness of bis g.imo. 1 therefore hope that my
readers will try to learn the wooden shot,
for to my way of thinking It Is the easiest
one of tho game. In giving directions for
making It I shall simply tty to describe my
own method.
Stnndlng on the tee I take .1 niblick, the
heaviest club in my bag, and swing It once
or twice, the object, being to make the
driver seem light. Then I lay It aside and
take a couplo of swings with my driver.
