SCHRECK EASY
FOR CARL MORRIS
Right Hook to Jaw Ends Gin.
Cinnati Man in the
Sixth
He NEVER HAD A CHANCE
WITH "THE HOPE"

Carl Morris, the Oklahoma white
hope, climbed rung higher on the
heavyweight pugilistic ladder at
Sapulpa, Okla, by knocking out Mike
Schreck, of Cincinnati, in the sixth
round of a scheduled ffteen-round
bout
A hard right hook to Schrek's Jaw
after the sixth round had gone one
minute and two seconds ended the
battle. The Cincinnati man fell
heavily to the canvass and was count
ed out by Edward W. Cochrane, the
referee.
There was never a moment after the
first round was a minute old that the
result was in doubt Morris COM
pletely outclassed his opponent. The
former engineer rushed Schreck about
the ring at will and landed almost as
he pleased. Morris showed in this
fight that he could battle with both
hands. Hitherto his work with his
left hand was slow.
Schreck made a poor showing. He
landed fewer than a half dozen clean
blows, and none of them carried force
enough to cause the Oklahoma giant
any great worry.
1t was a noisy crowd that awaited
the beginning of the fight. Hundreds
OF cowboys, dressed in, the garb Of the
plains, occupied ringside seats. There
being no ban placed on noise, they
frequently gave way TO their en-
thusiasm. whistling and ceiling ias
loud as they could.
Several Indians we're in the crowd.

redmen. Few of the Indians ever
saw a prize fight, and this, added 10
the fact that their local pride was one
of the participants, made them keen
for the battle to begin. They, too,
yelled with all the yigor they pos
sessed.
Hundreds Of railroad workers who
knew Morris when he was an engineer
and had no thought of becoming an
aspirant for the crown of Jack john
son. the champion, mingled with the
ringside throng. They brought with
them the bell from engine that
Morris was running hen he made
his last trip over the road. THE beil
was hung near the press box was
rung whenever Morris's fo ers
raised a cheer for their favorite.
A light rain was falling when the
gates of the giant arena were opened
at 1 o'clock and the crowd began NJ
ing in. Hundreds Of sporting celebri-
ties. gathered from all parts of ihc
country, were in attendance. More
than 5000 reserved seats had Nean
engaged when the ticket offices in the
arena were opened. The general ad-
mission tickets were not placed on sale
until today. About 10000 persons
saw the fight.
There was practically no betting az
the ringside. Morris money was Of
fered in abundance, but no hackers
for Schreck could be found. The pre-
vailing odds we're TO 1 on Morris
to win. A few small bets we're placed
at TO 1 on Schreck to last FIVE
rounds.

being from outside the state, that fact
would tend to allay any possible fac.
tional irritation which probably would
manifest itself were Indianians to

strong effort for some one like Gov

vet of it. in a sentimental aspect, at
least, there is splendid opportunity
for most harmonious action. There is
not, nor can there be, any better har-
monizer than unselfish action.
Beyond doubt, Governor Osborn
could nave the support of his own

with answering, unfeigned enthusi-

doubt that the combination would at

There are many points to recommend

Indiana Wants Gov. Osborn.

FROM Lafayette (lnd.) Courier.
Vow that Gov. Chase s. Osborn has
eft oar city, and gone back to his du
sass in a neighboring state, opportunity
is given to discuss that gentleman in q
RHy that might have savored of full
GGae praise if INDUCED in while he was
min with us.
The unauimity with which people
2sreabout are discussing the wonder.
f3aly engaging qualities of his person.
Elsty ~ little short of remarkable. Oh
sNurse. the circumstances of his re-
aErn have good deal of the quality
III romance about them. Romance,
especially characteristic American ro-
9S4sace, wherein poor American boy
uSAkes good in the great world of af-
shirs is always engaging, but there is
racrs than mere romance about Chase
s Osborn. There is no denying the
ssat that he has the power, the per-
ssaAity-what you will. to draw PEG.
aas 10 him and make them his enthu-
asnstic adherents. This is not a mere
supplementary statement. 1t has been
esoved on all sides here in this city.
SkAid, sober-minded men, considera-
sAay past the period in life when their
enthusiasm for anything, people es-
ssesaily, is apt to go off at half cock,
Srs even yet discussing Mr.. Osborn
wikh unfeigned admiration. Again. we
rSgest, the engaging quality of Gov
ayDor Osborn's personality is truly re-
variable. And not only the effect of
his personality in direct contact is re-
RemRable, but it is also remarkable
when applied through the medium of
u&ntform eloquence. AS truly as was
sxar said, Governor Osborn is VERT.
able spell binder.
TyhS statement of these qualities
aEfrgs US to the point of this brief
discussion. Why not launch an Indi.
ma effort to name Governor Chase
s. Osborn, of Michigan, the Hoosier
Asey who has made good in neigh.
herring state, as Republican candidate
lEg vice president? All sorts of politi-
sas expedienoy is bound up in the
i1sa First, Governor Osborn is the
sEset and fitting compliment of Pres
sSsat Taft, whose nomination is gen.
agAIly conceded. Governor Osborn
s.DaH supply all the elements of en-
lh1siasm and wonderful campaigning
skSsisy which needs to be coupled
NTH President Tafts steady. going,
znspectacular way. That Governor
taaorn would prove a whirlwind
smI0paigner goes without saying. 1t
yrs on his ability in this respect that
he won his present place against or
.sgGized forces, in Michigan, without
n corresponding organization of his
ssn, and the experience of people
ssace. who have come in contact with
tsisn, farther makes the point Of his
Spaspaigning ability understood. Fur
ssas, he has every element of a popu
lpc candidate. The fact of how his
r~sVss has been typically that of
xrHz American boy, rising from OBJ
xsErity in the right sort of fashion has
strSady been named.
And still further, in an aspect not
N Governor Osborn himself, this pro-
ees may we'll be considered. Indiana
sepcblicans would do exceedingly

AS state in particular, to unite in a
xnope hearted, enthusiastic effort for
