Able, Cool as North Pole, Shows

Way.

hEFORE the biggest crowd that
Id has seen a fight on Manhattan
Island since the good old Horton

donned a boxing glove. Abe Attell, last
night at the Fairmont A. c., com
pletely outclassed Pal Moore, one of
the best little boys in the country.
After last nights showing 1t is the
opinion Of sporting men that Able can
hold his championship title until he
dies of old age.
1t was a corking crowd and a cork

way. Everybody who was anybody was
there, and at 8 o'clock. when the first
preliminary went on, the crowd looked
like one at the Polo Grounds in mid
summer. And none envied Billy Glib
son, the Harlem promoter.
Pal lacked two things-confidence
and the punch. Also he was a. bit
overturned. AS for Able, he was as
cool as the North Pole. and brought
into play every trick of the game.
After he had felt out the ambitious
Philadelphia for three rounds, he
crossed his right in the fourth and
when Pal went down several started

ing the count of nine Pal came back
and slugged away at Able, and the
crowd yelled until it seemed as if the
roof would come off the old foundry
building. It sur was some fight.
Then in the seventh in a mix-up
Able went down for the near count,
partly tripping and being aided by d
short Jolt to the jaw. Crafty he rose
to his feet with the old Fitzsimmons
trick. He appeared groggy But he
wasn't, and Moore wisely paid no at
tention to the clamor to put him
away" At this time Pals right eye
was closed and his face was covered
with bruises from the continual jab-
bling of the clever Abe Abe's nose
vas bleeding.
In the tenth round Moore, seeing that
he had had the worst of every round,
made a rally. But Attell met-him more
than half way and beat him to the
ropes with a fusilade of blows.
1t was all Attell, and it now looks as

Schlafy's visit to Newark was a
mere stop-over, according to Tom Mar
tin, who declared that Schlafy had
been to New York on business. 1t was
insinuated In a P. o. NJ. League news
paper that Schlafy had been asked to
act as manager Of one of the teams in
that circuit. Schlafy would make a
good manager, but 1t would be no easy
task to get a man to fill in the Newark
machine as Larry has. The Beach City
boy did not have the best year of his
career last season, but he won many a
game for Newark with his headwork.
Larry was in town and out again SO
quickly that 1t was impossible TO get an
interview with him. He told McGin-

kick. is working hard on his parents
farm and is feeling fine.

CLASSY BOWLING BUT NO CENTURIES
Martin Losey Fails to Approach
Last Years Mark-9l
His Best.
BY BERT DODGE.

~ HOUGH there was considerable
classy bowling done in the STAR
headpin tournament last night,
there were none Of the fifty pin-knights
who were able to reach that desired
century mark, thus failing to obtain
any of the watchfobs offered by the
STAR to those who roll scores of 100 or
better. It was Orange Bowlers'
Night" and the half-hundred bowlers
brought with them a big crowd of
r~ooters.
The Mckinley A team, from East
Orange. succeeded in tieing the high
team score record to date in b tour
nament, reaching AIS, the total made
a few nights ago by the Parkvfew A
team. The Mohicans, from Emil
Schneider's alleys. in East Orange with
Manager George Fitzpatrick as the top
liner, had. perhaps. the biggest turnout
Of supporters. and they made some
noise.
Martin Losey, who rolled liz last sea-
son In the STAR headpin Tournament,
as a member of the Eureka team, was
decidedly anxious to do at least as well
this season. He failed, however, to re-
alize on his expectations. He was in
good form, however, n only missed
a watchfob by nine pins, putting up a
score of 81. For a starter he fouled.
Not dismayed by this occurrence, he
put in a strike in the second box and
kept up his good work until the sixth
frame, when a miss came. This made
it impossible for him to reach the CEN
! tury mark, out he kept right at the
pins in earnest, just the same.
The Valley Stars and h Seminole
No. / team went on first. The Valley
Stars did some pretty good pinning, but
the seminoles had misses galore. Nc
Cormack, for the Valley Stars, was
high, with a mark OF 81. made in spite
of a miss in the first frame and another
in the sixth.
Thu Ampere Bowling Club and the
Cedar A. c. rolled next. Mundle, for
the Amperes, started of with two
strikes and looked like a surenuf win
ner, until the eighth box. when a miss
came. This might not have kept him
outside the century mark had 1t not
been for the fact that he slipped up
again in the tenth frame. He was the
only member of either team in his
squad to come anywhere near a score
of 100.
The Mckinley A team. which tied
the high score mark of Ais. went on
with the Mckinley Bowlers. Huetz
gave the A FIVE a good start by rolling
81 as topliner. He rolled six clean
frames for So and then missed. He
made a nice finish after his disaster
and was only three pins Of h desired
mark p. Murray had a miss IN the
| seventh frame and another in the last,
rolling s..
Salmon, of the M~ohicans, turned the
trick Of rolling 80. He missed In the
second frame, but hit the pin well there
after until he rad a score Of 81 In the
eighth frame. He then put In TWO
strikes for 81 and needed d strike and
nine for q fob. He got only eight pins
or the next ball. and wouu1 up with 4
strike. Ahercrombie. of tee Crescent
A team, which rolled with b Moht-
cars. put together a score Of SO. He
dill not miss until the tenth frame.
Here are all :he scores:
