vt is evident tina the Vendome Club
must put on such men as Battling
Hurley, Patsy Kline, Willie Jones,
Willie Beecher, Tommy Carey and
Tommy O'Toole If the management
wishes to have a crowd on hand at the
shows in the New Auditorium. The
announcement that Battling Hurley
n Tommy Carey are to be the prin-
cipals in the main bout next week is
welcome news. There didn't look to De
a paying crowd on hand last night as a
result of last weeks poor main bout.
To continue, better matchmaking must
be evident. 1t Is not enough to sign
Hurley or Kline. Capable opponents
must be gotten, too. or the fight will
be a farce and the situation worse tina
ever.
The surprise last night was the whirl-
wind pur ching of Billy Leary. who
male Charley White stop the fight
early in the second round to prevent
any serious trouble ensuing as a result
of the Gladstone boys awful punches.
Leary caught Wildfang early in the
first round with a right shot to the
jaw; dazed him. and kept pounding
him without missing a blow-about
thirty in a row-until a halt was called
to hostilities. Wildfang took enough
punishment to kill a man. 1t was Won
derful how the defeated one stood on
his feet during the onslaught. He
didn't nave a show to come back
LIS too bad Leary made such short
work of Wildfang. While Billy gets
c,edit for a rapidly made victory, we
would have liked 20 nave seen him put
to- a test. as he seems to have Inn
proved u great deal since he left here a
couple of years ago. Billy looked like
q great man last night, but without
taking any credit from Bill, all he had
to do was to shoot over that thunder
ing right without any science or art
except to hit the jaw of Wildfang,
whose arms were hanging limp for the
greater part of the fight.

1t is understood that Tommy O'Toole
will be an opponent of Willie Beecher at
the Vendome in the near future, and
tina Willie Jones will be Patsy's oppo-
nent. Moe Smith, Patsy's manager, who
has Beecher and Leary on his string,
agreed to those bouts yesterday with
Voigt If the management can get the
other men.

What Buffalo pitcher gets credit for
