CARTER WILL NOT
ALLOW PRIZE FIGHT
Kid Clabby Of Hammond
and Tony Moran Fail
to Clash at Gary.
SPORTS BADLY DISAPPOINTED
Hammond Boys Put on Boxing
Match But It Was
Tame Affair.

The boxing exhibition which was
scheduled between Kid CIabby of Ham
mOnd and Tony Moran of New York, at
Gary, was not pulled off Saturday night
owing to the fact that it had been re-
ported about town that the sheriff
would stop the event and the gate re-
ceipts did not warrant the carrying
out of the program. The wrestling ex-
hibition was held, however, and WINS
witnessed by about seventy-fve sports.
There was a big disturbance in the
tent after the manager had announced
that the main bout would not be pulled
off as the crowd felt that they had
been duped. Most Of them demanded
that they receive their money back
but while they were arguing with the
police as to whether they could have a
little private exhibition of their own,
which they passed the hat around for
tent, and of course, none of the money
was returned
The affair was put on by several
Chicago sports who intended to pull
off several events of this kind during
the summer. The program arranged
for Saturday night was a good bill and
were it not for the fact that it had
been noised around that the boxing
exhibition would not be allowed, there
would have been a good crowd in at
tendance The manager, the Chicago
man, put on all of the show he could
however, but the crowd was far from
being satisfied.
The wrestling exhibition was be-
tween George Sterling of Minneapoli;
and Young Hackenschmidt of Chicago
! The two were very evenly matched and
both succeeded in getting one fall. The
work was very commendable and i
was evident that they knew the gam,
from start to finish. They did no
struggle to defeat each other, however
as they happened to be employed b.
the hour instead OF for a match fol
