Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, Jan. Pit is anticipated
that the Des Moines Ministerial ASCOT
alton will at it's next meeting clash
with the So called boosters. The big
drunk of New Years eve was staged
and carefully arranged by leaders
among the boosters" 1t was deliber-
ately planned and Its features We're
toreseen and anticipated.
The estimates vary as to the number
of persons on the streets at the coming
in of the new year. But as crowd OF
10000 on the streets Of Saturday
night is not uncommon. estimates OF
twice that number are not extravaganza
Merchants unite in saying that the
crowd was no good from business
standpoint. While there We're among
the reveiers OH the streets great many
respectable persons the mass OF the
crowd was made up of those who took
advantage of the occasion to indulge II,
the most extravagant conduct. The
only wonder Is that the night was
passed without more than one fatality.
orators ran thru the principal streets
at frightful speed, trolley cars were
stopped, windows were broken and the
streets were Uttered with trash Of all
kinds.
The whole event is being roundly
condemned by every one as far worse
than a prize fight or one of the old
fashioned street carnivals.

Los Angeles. Jan. 2.--I.uther Nc
Carly OF Springfield. NO.. shattered
the heavyweight championship ambi-
tions of AL Palzer, the Iowa giant, at
the Vernon arena yesterday. For
nerly eighteen rounds he used the huge
frame of the IoWan as Il punching pas.
The middle OF che eighteenth round
found PalZer staggering blindly about
under a voliey of lef.s to his battered
face. and when Referee Charles Eyton
walked between the men and hoisted
the right hand of the smiling COW
boy pugilist the decision was received
with cheers.
McCarty's victory. following his de-
cisive defeat three weeks ago of Jim
Flynn. places him at the top of the
list of white heavyweights McCarty
has announced. and reiterated his
statement today, that he would never
fight negro.

Palzer. In spite of his superior height.
weight and reach was no match for the
cool-headed. agile youngster. He liter
ally stumbled thru the fight. assimil-
ating awful punishment and his rushes
were wholly Ineffective. He scarce
ly landed clean blow turnout the
fight.
Palzer began the fight with an ag-
gressivcness that indicated desire 20
finish his man in short order. but Nc
Carly had little difficulty in eluding
him. ~
Only once Palzer appeared to have
an advantage. In one OF the early
rounds McCarty slipped to the mat.
Palzer rushed in. launching right
upper cat to catch the rising man.
but NIccarty ducked out of danger.
McCarty fought cleverly thA,out.
taking his time and beating down his
man Systematically. He seldom wasted
a blow and hit with deadly precision.
Pa,zcr had practically no defense
against the Missourian's whiplike left.
delivered straight from the shoulder.
and seldom was he able to block the
right swing or uppercut which in
variably followed a series Of straight
lefts. McCarty landed at will and
with an accuracy that became monot-
onous.
Iowa Boy Lacked Initiative.
Palzer's eyes were kept almost con-
tinually on his manager. the veteran
Tom ORourke. who shouted instruc-
tions to him thru a negaphone. He
appeared to have no initiative what
ever. OsRourke's instructions were as
audible to McCarty as to Palzer and
every move Of the Iowan was antici-
pated by his foe.
Palzer's face was badly disfgured
and he showed the effects OF his beat
ing even more than did McCartys
last victim, the veteran Flynn.
In the eighteenth round Palzer
walked steadily to the center of the
ring and literally fell into left hook
that dazed him. He chung to McCarty's
shoulders. and when they separated
iMcCarty shot two lefts to the jaw.
McCarty, apparently unwilling to ad
minister the finishing punch. backed
away. and the referee stopped the
fight.
McCarty's only mark was slight
cut under the right eye.
