down in his profession. That is gen.
orally the cry in most sports, "Oh,
give him a chance" Yet it is more
than likely some of the fans will say
that Spears is not being treated
fairly in being matched against
Clark.
Clark was tickled last night when
informed that he was to meet Spears
in the place of Kramer. He was as
sore as a hornets nest this morning,
though, when he woke up to find that
somebody had stolen his dog. There
isn't any mistake. Fido is gone!

gone. gone, gone! Jackie himself,
hatless and coatless, was beating II
hither and thither around Speedway
avenue this morning In search of the
highly priced canine. Up to the hour
of going to press the dog was still
leading the chase. He is wanted back

caused the Clark family much an

it be stated that the men in the grand

is out on the track. To bark isn't
fair at all, and why make fun out of
sad circumstance, anyway?

wrong. Mr. Allen got 10 all wrong
and you got it right. l thought when

praising him, and not knocking him.
The real reason ! would have liked
to have seen McDougall defend his
title was because / thought he had
such an excellent chance of winning,
not having seen the rider yet who has
been able to extend him in sprint
races, except Kramer Bailey would
never be 100-to-1 favorite, as Mr..
Reese says, If McDougall had been
riding; in fact, it would be about even

| times very unreliable, McDougall is
in for sure beating when Bailey ar
rives, next month. l cannot for the

you why. Bailey will certainly not
| be as good over here as in the worlds
championship, as he had a special
preparation for that important race,
and it will be more of pleasure trip
than anything else to come over here
and ride match races.
"You know Bailey has been beaten

Vic Johnson, who is rider very much
after the style of McDougall. In fact,

Bert's WalIops Fail to Connect
With Clever Jimmy at
TrOxlerS.
KLINE TO BATTLE MOHR

Bert Papp came out second best in
his bout with Jimmy McVeigh at
Troxler's Central Institute last night.
Papp started out like a winner, but
when the little down-neck fighter got
in action he just toyed with his oppo-
nent. A straight left to the face and
right hook to the jaw staggered
Papp in the opening round. McVeigh
followed this up with a series of left
jabs and uppercuts and soon had
Papp on the run.
When Papp began to swing, Nc
Weigh coolly de-stepped with the
result that in few minutes Papp was
spent, while McVeigh was still fresh.
The second and third rounds started
like the first with Papp the agrees
sor. but the gong found McVeigh on
the long end.
The final round furnished plenty of
action. with Papp trying hard for a
| knockout, but failing to land his
blows. and McVeigh jumping in with
jab or two between swings. Both
boys were tired when the round
ended.
Fred Miller, of the Whirlwind A. c.,
easily defeated Young West, scoring
knock down in the third round of
their bout Battling frankie was
outpointed by Young Baum, and Bill
Mulligan met defeat at the hands of
Ray MCGUIRE, a Bayonne scrapper.
Young Jersey bested Joe Burns in
four rounds. Kid Henry and Young
Wemco fought an even bout. Jimmy
| Quinn and Bobby Russell showed
some clever boxing in the opening
bout of the evening, finishing on
even terms.
Patsy Kline, the local feather
weight, will box Walter Mohr, of
Brooklyn, ten rounds at Browns Far
Rockaway Club Friday night. Banty
Lewis and Tommy Buck will meet
