O'LEARY-KANSAS ACT
FLA T, WITH NO MUSIC
ShameRain Was Cheated

tion of Bout Tliat Looked
Good on Paper
SOCCO REAL SOCKER
By LOOTS n. JAFFE
SOMEBODY failed to function at the
Olympla last night. With so fine
an Apache dance as that put on by
Rocco Kansas and Artie O'Leary, fel
low statemen from New York, the one
in charge of festivities forgot to bring
along the piano player, or some other
apropos moosiker, to render the neccs.-
sary selection so that the event could i
hare been more of a success.
It was somewhat of a success, from
a rough-neck dancing standpoint, but
those present really expected to see a
boxing bout. It couldn't be called that.
It was a shame that the show was not
scheduled to be held at one of the ball
parks or any old place in the open
air. For one perfectly good reason the
.temperature, like lied Walsh in the
thirdbout, took an awful flop, causing
the spectators almost to wilt. And an
other excellent reason was that it start
ed to rain just as the bell sounded for
the alleged windup stars to get into
action. We knew it started raining
then because of the added drenching
from a leak in the roof besides that
from the sponge handled by Sam Wal
lace, brother of Leach Cross and who
handled O'Leary.
Looked Good But Wasn't
Had it been necessary for ' the
O'Leary-Kansas bout to be called off
because of the rain there wouldn't have
been any kickers, that is had a fore
sight of the contest been given by some
wise person.
The bout did look good on paper.
Under ordinary circumstances a boxer,
like O'Leary, and a fighter, like Kan
sas, should-have put up an interesting
melee. But they didn't. And it wasiThi is almost certain to be the case,

down, stood head and shoulders under
the towering O'Leary, who should have
had little trouble outboxing the Buffalo
cave-man. But he didn't.
Instead of standing off and boxing
the aggressive petit pug, O'Leary, who
Uses this handle because he isn't Irish,
stood flat-footed and blocked all of
KansaB's. rushes. Then Artie pro
ceeded to hold on. If Bob Folwcll was
not in the audience he should have been,
for he could have learned a lot about
tackling. O'Leary made some beautiful
grapples and often he held on so tightly
that Referee Lou Grimson had trouble
in separating the pair.
Kansas Waa Victor
For the benefit of those who are suffi
ciently interested in a decision it might
be stated that Kansas was the winner,
but it was apparent that nobody cared.
Many of the spectators vacated their
seats as early as the second round and
the downpour on the outside was the
only thing that kept them on the in
side. There were several good bouts. Abie
Friedman, of New York, put up an in
teresting exhibiton in winning from Joe
ODonnell in the" scheduled sir rounds,
bringing blood from Joey's right eye
in the fifth and more claret from
O'Donnell's nose in the sixth. Young
Socco, of Boston, proved himsslf a
regular socker by making a great sock
ing rally in the final frame of his six
rounder with Frankie Clark, thereby
winning by a slight margin. This was
Clark's bow of the 1910-20 campaign
and introduced him as a lightweight.
" The other bout, which wasn't so bad,
resulted in a victory for Joe Gciger over
Jack Londqn.
Young Jack Toland collected his
guarantee before be could even work up
a sweat when Red Walsh's seconds
tossed a jersey into the, ring. Walsh,
wljo substituted for Frankie McManus,
was .ready to-take the high dive anyway.

HERZOG MAKES RECORD
Goes Through Fortieth Game With
out Making an Error on Batted Balls
Chicago, Sept. 23. What is bclicicd
to be a world's record for consistent
fielding by second basemen was achieved
in Chirag when Charlie Hcrzog, of the
Cubs, went through the final game of
the year there against Boston without
making an error. It was the fortieth
game in which he performed consecu
tively without being charged with a
muscue, and it was the forty-seventh
contest without an error in fielding bat
ted balls or in taking throws at second
base. The two errors with which he is
charged since joining Fred Mitchell's
forces were chalked against him for
wild throws, one to the plate and oue
to first base.
Hcrzog has not gone through his
forty games without making a mistake
by upt trying for every grounder that
Is knocked iu his territory. He does
not shirk on the hard ones, but plays
them as quickly as he does the easy
ones, and in setting what is believed
to be a world's record he has made
many wonderful plays back on the
grass and back of second base. He
has also made some thrilling plays in
front of the bag and on slow groun
ders, proving that his exhibition has
not been a fluke, but the result of
natural speed and skill.

In a specia'l exhibition game at Shibe
Park yesterday. Confusion reigned as
to the proper way to designate the
sides, and until Bill Brandt volunteered
the names of Mayflowers and Septem
ber Stars, those intelligent gentlemen
who perpetrate the results on the dear
old public were in more or less of a
quandary. This happy inspiration set
tled matters and the game proceeded,
unusua) save at rare periods, it, how
ever, working up to a climax that was
very satisfactory to the sparse gather
ing seated here and there in the yawn
ing stands.
It was this way: I'ntil the ninth

separated binglcs had been secured off
him, and never had a rally even been
hinted. But the final session spelled
trouble. Griffin sliced one out to left
for a starter, and hen Welsh drove
enc deep down the other foul line for
three bases the first rue was over.
Gallaway walked, and then carne the
youngsters' supreme effort, an indi
vidual insertion by Dvkcs.

Consistency
A solid tire make that delivers 25,000
miles on one wheel while its mate on
the other checks out. at? 4000 miles
cannot be rated as a consistent per
former and in the end will lose money '
for the user.
Fleck Bros. Company, with general
offices at 44-50 North Fifth Street,
Philadelphia, manufacturers and
dealers in heating and plumbing sup,-,
plies, stick to Goodrich De Luxe Truck
Tires because of their consistently
fine performance.
For six years De Luxe Tires on the
Fleck fleet have never failed to outrun
the liberal adjustment mileage; in fact,
each tire has averaged in heavy duty
service close to 16,000 miles before
renewal.
Uniformally high mileage, together '
with thicker cushion, is what you buy
in De Luxe Tires. That's what you
want should have and get in De
