BACKING HYLAND
TO BEAT MURPHY
Those Who Know Him
Make Frisco Fighter
the Favorite.
By TAD
MCDONALD,
Pitcher From Erie, Pa.

NEW YORK, Sept. u-"F1ghting
Dick Hyland and Tommy Murphy meet
before the National Athletic Club OF
Philadelphia tonight IN six-roUnd bat
tie.
Murphy IS as well known hereabouts
as the Flatiron building. but the Hy-
land person IS the real. old unknown
quantity. He is a Californian, but not
Of the battle arm variety. Dick Is
a fighter and Is there forty ways Up
70 date he has engaged in fifty-seven
battles and fOTty-One Of these have end
ed IN knockouts, which proves that the
fighting gentleman has the pellet for
these sleeps within his gentle hook
Just why they have made Dick a
faVOrite over Tommy in tOnights fight
is hard TO understand The only way
you can figure Il Is that the record
book must he out with his full record
and 1t looks good TO the betting men.
How Records Compare.
Hyland has fought some % the men
that the Harlem lad has crossed swords
with. but 70 tell Just which Is the BET
ter man is task Hyland knocked
Young COrbett out IN ogden In FIVE
rounds. while Murphy simply outpoint-
ed the Denver lad in six. Hyland
knocked Dick Cullen out in four. but
Tommy did the trick n two, when Cul-
len was much better FTyland knocked
Denver and Murphy put the fighting
conductor away In two at Philadelphia
According 10 these figures Murphy is
the harder puncher Of the pair. but
then his record does not stand com
parisOn with Hyland's on the knockout
score.
HyIand's greatest fight IN San Fran
cisco was the one in which he knocked
Eddie Hanlon out in thirteen rounds
He is demon on the kidney punch,
and after the third round had HanlOn
leaning over from weakness. He Just
beat the game little Eddie until he
couldn't lift his hands, and then an
uppercUt stopped the fireworks.
They VIII Weigh I5s.
Up at Captain Bonds roadhouse N
Stratford. Conn. where Dick has train
ed for this go, he is a great favorite.
They have seen Corbett, Murphy. and
Hyland train up that way and the lat
ter Is the biggest favorite that ever
left the place. Quite a few Of the
Stratford sports came down with Dick
last night and journeyed with him to
the field OF battle. They have brought
their rolls and say that If he loses thew
VIII never pick another fight.
Hyland weighed 132 pounds stripped
up there yesterday and Sammy Nc
Clntick, his manager. declares that he
viii enter the ring at 123 and not an
ounce more.
Murphy viii tip the beam at this fig
ure and as both are like bulls, a rfDuing
fight may be expected. Murphy has the
advantage in height. being one Inch
taller >than Dick, but the latter figures
than overbalance this slight advantage.

Sand and Davis came IN second and

How soon we are forgottenl


Last season and at the beginning OF
this Case Patten was the idol Of the
Washington fans. He was known as
The Willing Worker" and deserved
the nickname, for year after year he
had given mis- best effOTts-and they
were among the best ever put forth
by a s0uthpaw-to a hOpelessly tailend
team which would have been ridiculous
instead Of pitiful II It had not been for
his willingness and ability.
This year Patten has had one of the
worst slUmps a pitcher ever had, and
when the gentlemanly announcer E.
Lawrence Phillips. called out Patten's
name in announcing the batteries for
the second game. there were loud cries
OF Take him OuLi' before hOstilities
had begun IT must have hurt Pat
ten to hear the boot. but IL is part Of
the game, and no man who can't stand
the gam IF criticism for his poor work

IS not 2 sheltered nook for sensitive
plants-but still, the bleacheTites might
have shown more consideration for a
man who has always done his best and

fought and when he entered the ring
with the negro in a real contest he
adopted precisely the style that would
enable Cans 10 beat him in q hurry

Britt as saying he would go right after

and try 10 wear him down early That
he would really do this was inconceiv-

evidence of his bravery he points to
former fights in which he received pun
Ishment without curling up.
That Britt had the physical courage
10 continue with Cans TO the bitter end
by the knockout route Is possibly true,
but the fact is, he knew he was licked
and didn't have the moral courage or
sense of decency to allow a courteous
opponent 10 win clean cut victory.
He preferred 10 stop and spend the re-
mainuer IF his life beefing about the
wonders lie would have accomplished
If he had not met with an accident. We
may even expect him to fash the old
stun about the doped water or the oiled
gloves.
Fortunately. Cans so far Outclassed
Britt that even Britt's boosters on the
Coast will not be able to get by with
that line Of junk. and IN California and
throughout the country Britt stands in
his true light as a second rater. man
who first sprang into prominence by
getting the near-champiOnship from
Young Corbett on a decision that would
never have been given outside OF Frisco,
and who has done nothing since to Jusu-
fy the reputation he was able 10 hold
onto largely because there were so few
places where flfteen-rOund boxers could
be developed.
