BY Ed. W. Smith.

THICAGO, Sept. 27.-After
what has happened well
have to concede Eddie Nc
Goorty another title, even if some
dispute his right TO be called mid
dieweight champion. He certainly
is the little dandy cleaner of ma
lions, What he has done to Great
ID Britain's boxing stars is a shame to
chronicle-for G. b at least.
His quick defeats of Dave Smith,
Australian champion middles and
heavyweight fighter. and Jack Har-
rlson. holder of the Lonsdale belt
as middleweight champion of Eng
land, isn't all shat the Oshkosh
man has done to British boxers.
lie even went right into their own
rings and trimmed up the best of
them at that time.
One Victim Now a Star.
And one of the men he defeated
over there couple of. years ago is
now challenger of Billy Bomb
Wells for the heavyweight belt!
In way Eddie is something Of
an accident. He wasn't intended
for the fighting game at all. He
began in an amateur way as a
small-sized lightweight, found him
self so good right off the reel that
he became a great prospect and
thereafter the money began to roll
in so easily that he decided then
and there to eschew all else and go
out after fighting honors.
Takes Two English Trips.
Patsy Callahan, of Neenah, the
man who originally discovered"
Eddie and acted as his manager.
took him to England twice and
there it was that the Wisconsin
man found the easiest picking of
his life. He fought them all over
there, big and little and cleaned up
handsomely, Indeed, he became
such a great favorite in Ireland
that today he commands the high
est sort of backing there a syndi-
cate being ready at all times to
furnish him with the richest sort
of side wager on any match, even
with Bombardier Wells, that Eddie
chooses to make.
Among the rich Irish patrons of
the American Irishman is Richard

took the greatest delight in the

Goorty's victims. Eddie went over
there in November, 1909, and the
first man he took on was Curran.
He trimmed the light heavyweight
in twenty rounds. Today Curran
is an active challenger for Wells
Lonsdale belt
Among other victims during that
trip and a subsequent one that he
made year ago last spring were
Sergeant Sunshine, nineteen
rounds; Bart Connolly twenty
rounds; Tom Lancaster, twenty
rounds; Joe White, six rounds;
Harry CroXon. five rounds, and Pat

Soon Develops a Punch.
For several years McGoorty was
Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1912-09-27

regarded as clever fellow, with
out much of a punch. He had it's
sue paper knuckles, il was said,
and Eddie was afraid to lash out
for fear of putting his kit of tools
on the blink But he developed
into such an accurate puncher and.
hit so perfectly straight, that he
quickly discovered that little harm
came to his hands and he began to
be known as a desperately hard
waloper.
1t was limited atter he trimmed
Dave Smith that the reason he
sailed in so fast at the Australian
was because he was out of shape
and had to win quickly If he was
to win at all. That is only partly
true. McGoorty was not in the best
of shape for that match, but he
certainly proved to be good enough.

CENTRAL DEFEATED
After Leading Three Quarters
Wentworth Fell Before Whir1-
wind Rally.

One Of the most exciting and
prettiest games of basket ball
ever played in the academy drill
hall was the one Monday night in
which Central college of Fayette
defeated the Wentworth five 80
to Is. There were many more
thrills tan the score would IN
dicate.
AT the beginning of the game
the soldiers jumped into the lead
by several pretty throws from
Hill and Duke. The cadet
guards were outplaying their for
wards II along, while the ca
Diet forwards were shooting bas-
kets with fair accuracy, At the
end of the first half Wentworth
was leading IL to D.
During the intermission the
Methodists evidently got togeth-
err; for their team work was inn
proved and the energy Of their
playing was increased. They be-
gan climbing and kept it up until
they had tied the score at Is.
Then, just before the close of the
third quarter, a basket by Duke
put the cadets back into the lead
by two points.
But when the last period open
ed, so did the visitors. They
made two baskets in % seconds
Hareis, their big center, turned
h mself loose. He dribbled all
over the hall and shot baskets
almost at will. Smith, a guard
then decided that he had
his forward properly subjugated
and went down the field fOl

found that during this last ter

but in her latest appearance she
surprised her friends and delight

response from her hearers, while
the playing of the first movement
of the Beethoven Sonata assured
them of the quality of entertain
ment to be given. In the second
movement, the largo, Miss Clark
was especially fine. Her tone
quality in the Schumann number;
her clear, accurate, and perfectly
sure technical work in all bril-
liant passages, combined always
with real expression, made her
playing a genuine pleasure to all
who appreciate the excellent.
Miss Clark is a pupil of Mr..

taken in the instruction of his
pupils and the preparation of a
