CanceIing of Dillon Go Puts
Eddie in Bad Light-Commis-
sion to Handle Case.

~ HlCAGO, Oct. 2S.-Eddie Nc
I Goorty, considered, with Jimmy
Clabby, the leading middle
weight of the country, to-day faces
disbarment not only from the Wis
consin boxing ring, but from New
York and such States where the game
is conducted under law. The Box
ing Commission of Wisconsin has
McGoorty's case in hand and will act
on il at the next meeting. Should
they find that Eddie is at fault in
canceling his match for November 5
they will bar him and ask the other
commissions throughout the country
to do likewise.
McGoorty recently agreed to battle
Dillon and accepted so per cent of
the gross. Things went along until
Friday, when he demanded a guar
antee of s1,700, with privilege of 80
per cent. The club refused to raise
it's original terms, and McGoorty
called off the go. 1t is said Indian
apolis promoters got to McGoorty and
swayed him in his stand, offering him
a bigger percentage.
Tommy Walsh, manager OF Nc
Goorty and who signed the terms for
the match, stated last night that
everything was up to McGoorty now.
Walsh took Eddie under his manage
ment about three weeks ago, and this
is practically the first match he has
secured for the Wisconsin boxer. Lo-
cal fans are anxiously waiting to see
what steps Eddie will take next

T OS ANGELES, CAL, Oct. Is
The retirement bee. Always it
stings boxer early in his ca
reer, buzzes about his "caulifiower"
ears until he grows old in service and
finally flies away, leaving him to
founder in the has been" class.
Up in Millett's old Colma camp less
than two hours before he was sched-
uled to meet Joe Cans a third time,
Battling Nelson made this talk:
Il might lose this afternoon, but
l doubt it. l think I've got the
smokes number. But if he does lick
me I'll say goodbye to the ring. You'll
never see me running around giving
the second-raters a chance to make
money at my expense"
This was in 1908. five years ago.
About two weeks back. long since
shorn of his championship honors
Nelson was beaten by Ad Wolgast in
Milwaukee. He has been beaten by
many second and third-rate young
sters, and probably will continue in
the ring as long as the promoters will
make terms with him.
"CHERoKEE' TOM JONES receiv-
y ed q letter from Wolgast yes
terday, one paragraph of which read
as follows:
Want to make several fights yet
so l can grab off enough dough to
build a few more houses"
And yet at the height of his sue
cessful campaign in 1911, Wolgast sat
in this office, drulnmed idly on the
floor with his big cane, and went on
record to the effect that he would
never tie on a glove after he had lost
the title.
81 don't believe in any champion
retiring with the title" said Ad in
the lightweight division the cham
pionship is easily worth $4,000 to
any man. | would be throwing this
much away if l quit with the title.
"I'n keep on boxing ralting in every
dollar in sight, until I'm whipped.
After that I'll shake hands with the
new champ and settle down to private
Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1913-10-28

life. They'll never coax this Dutch
man back for second lacing."
There was some excuse for VOL
CAST deman ding a return match with
Richie, as Willie's win was more or
less on the fiuke order. But when old
Tommy Murphy and the youthful
have been convinced that his days as
a star were over.
THE nearest approach we ever had
to retired champion was the
case of Jim Jeffries. After hopping
and remopping the heavyweight d.
vision. finishing up with a joke win
over Jack Monroe in 1904, jeff went
back to the farm and for five years
the printing of his name was always
followed by the tag of r. H. C" The
Reno affair put the Eek" on Jeems.
EARLY in 1907 little Abe Attell, sin
IL cere to his finger tips, made a
speech that sounded so good to him
that he kept repeating it for years.
when | am finally cornered and
whipped you will see the most SEN
sational finish over staged in ring"
said the featherweight champion. I'll
never stay on the floor. I'll keep COM
ing up until the police break through
the ropes and stop the show. And
when l lose the title ! quit Never
again for Able"
And Able was relieved of his lau-
rels in one of the tamest exhibitions
ever staged at Vernon. Johnnie XII
bane, youngster, faster and more cum
ming, outpointed Attell all the way
and stole" the decision from the vet
eran. But Attell did not retire until
the sturdy old warrior Tommy Muir
ply had outboxed him and won an
easy decision.
I'D OBJ" FTTZSIMMONS, with his
II head pillowed against the ia
nous floral horseshoe, declared that
he was through with the game after
Jeffries had conquered him at Coney
Island in 1899. But Bob" stayed in
the ring and nine years later pitt
full old man of the ring, he was floored
by Bill Lang in Sydney.
John L. Sullivan's speech in the New
Orleans ring-"Tm glad that an
American has won the championship
was followed by the oft repeated
statement: There's one good fight
left in me-" etc. But no promoter
ever took a chance on matching the
old fellow.
Just as the old fire horse will tug
at his halter every time he smells
smoke, so the boxer will cling to the
game as long as he is able to climb
into a ring unassisted.
They announce their retirement.
They mean what they say, but they
always try for "one more fight" The
punch is missing, stamina shattered,
the fighting heart" keeps them go
ing.

MATTY. ADVISES
ALL YOUNGSTERS
To PLAY CLEAN
Famous Giant Pitcher Tells Boys
About Use of Arms, Legs
and Brains.
XIX OF hear about pitchers con
troll That's about the same

thing as guiding a bike right;
it means getting where you want to
70, or adding disasters by controlling
yourself. You can do that only oy
thinking, and when you think, think
straight. Some fellows think hard;
but crooked. They don't often win 49,
and if they do win, they lose your
good will and their own self-re-
spect."
So says Christy MatheWson, the
Giants famous twirler. Mathewson
says he is afraid that too often the
average boy-and the average man
too-plays the game just to win" ami
declares that the big thing Is not 10
win; the big thing is to do your best,
and doing your best means getting
into the game with your whole heart
No matter what the game is, play it
for all there is in you and all there Is
in the game"
The great pitcher advises the boy
first to know himself--to know mis-
physical and mental self-to know
his own weak points and strengthen
them, and his strong points and de-
velop them to the full. This, he says,
willie take practice, practice. then
more practice, for In athletics espe-
cially practice makes perfect.
uOll lHtdu lJi dNll't 'HlS WIN
your arms and legs" says Matty. II
mean practice with your brains, too.
Know how to throw, to eaten, to bat,
to run bases, TO punt, to kick goals
anything required by the game-but
know also how to think straight
about the contest. When you play
your game with your arms and legs
and brains, too, you get out of 1t the
most fun and the most benefit. There
are disasters in sport, but BOYS who
use their brains, as well as their arms
and legs, usually escape them
Mathewson tells the boy that
whether he wins or loses IN his game
he should try always to win every
body's respect, so that people Will
say: He's a fine fellow-he's
square" He advises the boy to play
the game everywhere-in school, m
the diamond, on the gridiron, in the
gym, on the track"

Loss Of Henderson Beat Georgia
Opinion of Red and Black Fans

completion of the play would have
given them touchdown and as many
times did he grab those thrown by his
own teammates for good gains, once
for the lone score that the Red and
Black registered Should Carey i'm
prove sufficiently to get into the Tech
and Auburn games, giving Logan a
chance to go to end as a running
mate to Conklin, dopesters of the Red
and Black see a combination in the
lineup, with Henderson, back at
tackle that will be well nigh inn
pregnable. especially with Georgia
playing anything like the brand of
ball as was put up Saturday
Il" HE work of Malone in the line has
been the noticeable feature of
the last two games. Malone, though
one of the fercest players in the
South. is clean in his fight, and the
Georgia fans can not realize why he
was put out of the game Saturday.
Since the absence Of Henderson he is
;he mainstay of the Georgia line. and
If he continues to put up the great
game he has been playing this fall
will make a strong bid for all-South-
ern honors.
M 'WHORTER came out of the fray
ANA Saturday in better shape than
when he emerged from the Alabama
game, and viii be able to continue his
great playing against North Carolina
this week. Bob is more popular at
Georgia than ever this year, and is
putting to rout all comment that
captains never play up to form.
The McWhorter family in Georgia
used to be famous by the prominence
of Judge McWhorter in politics and
the affairs of the State, but now
whenever the illustrious name Is men
toned it is usually connected with
football, and Bob is the topic of con-
Versatlon.

n THENS. GA, Oct. 2S,-The

glory, and were received with open
arms by all Athens. despite the de-

almost overwhelming odds.
1t is the conviction ofpevery Geor-

Athenians would have returned the
winners had not Henderson been in

necessitated the switching of Malone
