Jack McClelland Got a Lucky Decision
Over solly smith.

Jack McCleIland Got a Lucky Decision
Over solly smith.
PITTSBURG, Pa, October Jack
McClelland got the decision over Solly
Smith, of New York, tonight in the
sixth round of a scheduled fight of
twenty rounds.
When the referee, John J.. Quinn,
made the announcement that he gave
the fight to McClelland ON a foul, it
was greeted by mingled Kisses and
cheers by the 1900 spectators. Some
called it a fake, but Quinn said Smith
hit Mac while in a clinch. Smith
claimed that he had broken his wrist
in the second round and one of his
seconds said the foul was made to end
the fight.
If Smiths wrist was really broken
ne did good work later, for in the third
round he fioored McClelland twice
with hard punches on the jaw. The
second time down, Jack took the full
time limit before getting to his feet.
The contest was about an even thing
up to the third round, which was de-
cidedly Smiths. In the fourth McClel-
land had a shade the better of it and
in the fifth he held his own. The fight
was stopped shortly after the sixth
round had commenced. The result
every way was a disappointment TO
the crowd.
