Generally Condemned

For Willie Fitzgerald's sake it is
hoped by the local sporting fraternity
that his manager did not make the
statements attributed to him, but it is
equally fair to presume that the Police
Gazette would not publish the letter if
it was not bona fide.
On the presumption that Reid wrote
the letter, it is condemned by all who
witnessed the fight or are acquainted
with Charles Elton, Eddie Hanlon or
Tom McCarey.
Any imputation upon the honesty or
integrity of these men is a direct slap
at the game on the coast, as they are
more than ordinarily prominent in the
promotion of the sport in Southern Cal
ifornia and are recognized in an en-
tirely different light than that in which
Reid has placed them.
The answer of these men and the
interested public is that the fight was
on the square so far as Hanlon, Elton
and McCarey are concerned. Whatever
crooked work may have been contem-
plated or wrought by the Fitzgerald
contingent is up to them to answer for,
as it was not matter of publicity and
is not credited here.
No complaint was ever heard from
Johnny Reid as to the referee.
Fitz never had a peep for a decision
from the tap of the gong until he fouled
Eddie Hanlon three times in the last
round twice after being cautioned by
Elton, and at a time when Fitz was
bulging through the ropes, hanging on
for dear life, gasping for breath and
practically knocked out That he was
beaten and whipped to a standstill Is
the universal verdict of all who saw the
fight.
Fitz never shed a drop Of blood and
sustained not the slightest scratch to
show that he had been in fight
Fitz was whipped and all out when
he fouled Hanlon Jeffries sat at the
ringside, witnessed the fouls and made
the statement after Elton had awarded
Hanlon the decision that the decision
was eminently fair and correct, as he
had witnessed the delivery of three foul
blows by Fitzgerald in that last round.
Hanlon did not run across the ring
and ask the referee how he had won.
Hanlon did not make the statement to
Fitzgerald that is credited to him and
did not talk to Fitzgerald in the ring.
Reids Flash
Reid did not flash $1,000 and call for
physician. He "beefed" because Fitz
had lost, but he did not deny that Fitz
had fouled Hanlon, because it was too
evident to the audience. which jeered
Fitz on other occasions during the
earlier stages of the game, when Eddie
was getting in telling whallops to F'itz'
bread basket.
Spider Kelly did not sit idly in his
chair while Reid made his $1,000 flash,
but Spider Kelly got on his feet and
when Reid made his celebrated beef"
about the decision Spider Kelly was
right at Mr.. Red's elbow, attempting
to tell him where he could find seat
and a fan.
If Reid wrote such a letter and made
the statements contained in the pub
lished copy 1t will be only the manly
thing for him to humbly apologize to
Messrs. Elton, Hanlon and McCarey or
leave the coast with his charge, Willie
FitzEerald. who was beaten almost to q

There are few diseases that infiict more torture than rheumatism and there is probably no disease for which such varied and useless lot of reme- dies have been suggested.

One application of Pain Balm will re- lieve the pain, and hundreds of suffer- CTS have testified to permanent cures by its use.

kind even for the meeting places of
