TUESDAY EVENING, '
"KID" WAGNER HAS
HOUCK ALMOST OUT
Lancaster Pride Is Saved a Water
loo by Referee and Bell;
Good Boxing Show
By "UMP"
Leo Houck, of Lancaster, middle
■ weight and pride of the fight fans of
his home town, was given a hard bat
tle by "Kid" Wagner, of Wilkes-Barre,
last night. It was the second time
within thr,ee days that Houck was
punished. Young Ahearn beat Houck
in Philadelphia Saturday night.
As on previous occasions, Lancaster
reports give Houck the best of last
night's fight. In the opinion of two
thirds of the record crowd, who wit
nessed the battle, Houck was badly
beaten. Had last night's contest gone
ten rounds, Houck would not have sur
vived, according to the belief of un
biased patrons. Had the light taken
place In any other city, and with an
other referee, Leo Houck would have
met his Waterloo last night.
The first'round was all Wagner. He
had Houck bleeding. The second was
Houck's round by u small margin. The
third round was all Houck. In the
next two rounds Houck was beaten.
Five times the referee saved Houck
by Interfering when Houck clinched.
Houck never forced the fighting. The
bell saved him once.
Friends of Houck say it is all his
fault and that he has not been keep
ing in form. Houck may still have the
punch, but many are of the opinion
that his star is on the wane.
The show last night generally was a
good exhibition. A 1 Mason and
Charles Wright, both of Lancaster,
went six rounds, with Wright shading
the 6ther. Julius Ritchey, Lancaster,
and Johnnie Gill, York, put up a beau
tiful tight, fast all through, and Gill
had a little the better of the argument.
Tim Droney, Lancaster, knocked down
Johnny Ferguson, Philadelphia, in the
fourth. The latter got to his feet at
the count of nine, when the referee
stopped the bout.
INDIAN TEAM TAKES A REST
Carlisle, Pa., Nov. 17.—The Car
lisle Indian football squad returned to
Carlisle from the Notre Dame game, at
Chicago, early yesterday. Coach Glenn
S. Warner said this afternoon that he
believed the Indians were suffering
from a psychological depression, that
he could not understand and he
decided to allow the 'Varsity players
a holiday or perhaps several of them
in order that a recuperation might be
possible. The latest advices as to the
condition of Gush Welsh, whose cheek
bone was crushed in the Notra Dame
game, is that the Indian quarterback
is improving, but will not be able to
return for three weeks.
"BOB" SHAWKEY IS MARRIED
Philadelphia, Nov. 17. "Bob"
Shawltey, one of the Athletics' younger
pitchers, was married to Mrs. Herbert
Mason Clapp late yesterday afternoon,
at the home of the Rev. Charles A.
Rantz, assistant rector of St. Mary's
Episcopal Church. Locust street, near
Fourtieth. Amos Strunk was the best
man and Miss Vera E. Allen maid of
honor. After the ceremony a dinner
was given and followed by a box party
at one of the local theaters. The
couple will leave on their honeymoon
to-morrow.
[Shawkey pitched for Harrisburg
three years ago and was purchased
by Connie Mack. Shawkey was sent
to Baltimore. Two years ago he was
recalled and pitched for Athletics in
two world's series.]
