" 49, ISSa -
WITH tears streaming down his
w cheeks, Jem Driscoll begged
Referee Bettinson to give him
amber chance at Freddie Welsh last
night after Mr.. Bettinson had awarded
the fight to Welsh on a foul in the
tenth round. The ruling of the referee
caused nc end of trouble Immediately
after the decision. Driscoll's friends
leaped into the ring and engaged in q
free fight with the men who were
handling Welsh, and several of them
left the ring with bruises and scars
that they will carry for weeks.
The men had agreed to weigh in at
the ringside, and Driscoll was the
lighter by seven pounds, weighing l =,
while Welsh tipped the beam at 1872.
1t was apparent at the time of the
foul that Drisco1l vas not himself and
he showed signs of weakening long be-
fore the close of the ninth round.
Welsh set an awful pace from the
start. and his strength and weight en-
abled him to force matters. and 1t vas

In the first round Driscoll had the
advantage In points, but In the second
Welsh landed several hard blows. and
In that and the mex round his extra
weight began to tell. In the fourth he
sent Driscoll to his knees, n there
was a wild yell from the audience as
Driscoll went down. He was up in a
hurry and had to covereup the rest of
the round.

out where any available racing propo-

Ophelia Direct, owned by c. j. Farr,
Of Bayonne, in the combination of
Ralph Sage.
This mare certainly looks ike one of
the best things in sight, and the dis
appointed ones will be numerous if she

lions. Mr.. Farr did not send this mare
to her trainer until early in the sum-
mer of this year, and, with less than
sixty days handling. Sage drove her a
mile in PIT, last half in 1907, last quar-
ter in 81 seconds, and / believe she
could have paced an eighth in 10 Sec

She wears absolutely no rigging nor
