Dundee Beats White
In Ten-Round Bout

NEW ORLEANS, LA, Nov Is
Johnny Dundee, the New York light
weight secured revenge on Charlie
White, of Chicago, here yesterday
by having a good shade over the
Chicagoan in their ten-round scrap.
White tried hard to bring over his
deadly left wallop, but the Eastern
boy always managed to be either in
side of Whites punch, or far enough
away to be out of harms way. Dun
dee did his best work in the clinches
keeping on top of White at all times,
Both boys were strong at the finish.

NAVY IS PICKED
To DEFEAT ARMY
IN BIC BAT TIE
Both Squads in Excellent Condi-
ton to Put Up Bitter Struggle
Tomorrow.
BY Frank G. Menke.

NTEW YORK, Nov. 2S.-The
' Army Navy football game
billed for tomorrow lured the
advance guard of spectators to town
today, and there were so many gen
erals, admirals, captains, colonies,
lieutenants and mere privates among
he early arrivals that 1t reminded
he Oldest inhabitants of war time
days.
Also in the crowd were so many
secretaries, under secretaries, assist :
ant secretaries, Senators, Congress
men and just ordinary Government
employees that one jostled about sew
enteen of each kind at each street
corner.
The Army gridiron gladiators, con-
yoyed by a number Of coaches, ar
rived in town during the morning
and took up their quarters. The Navy
squad arrived last night. The men
were given some blackboard talks
during the day, and early tomorrow
will be sent out to the Polo Grounds
for their final work out in prepara-
ion for the big game.
There is not much betting on the
outcome of the battle. What little
wagering done favors the Navy out
fit at odds around ten to seven.

It seems certainty that the 1880

SLAYERS
ARE PARDONED
BY GOV. BROWN
Executive Thinks Woman and Man
He Frees Might Have
Been Justified.

Two pardons We're granted in man
slaughter cases by Governor Brown
Saturday morning. In each instance
the Chief Executive held that the cir
oumstantial evidence under which
both parties were convicted was suf-
ficiently strong to indicate that the
killing might be regarded as justifia-
bic homicide Martha Wooten and
Clarence Richardson were the per-
sons granted pardons
Martha Wooten, who was given
four years on a charge of manslaugh-
ter for killing a man in Rabun Coun
ty in August, 1911, was recommended
for pardon by the judge and other
prominent officials of Rabun County.
The statement was made to the Gov
ernor that Ordinarily she would
have been acquitted by jury Of this
crime" Plee Of the defense at her
trial was that the man had attacked
Ter. that he was drunk and that she
was forced to kill him in self-defense.
The prosecution alleged that she was
selling whisky and had sold the man
the whisky which had intoxicated
him and was directly responsible for
his condition.
The case Of Clarence Richardson
created quite a sensation. He was
given four years for manslaughter in
1909. He comes from one of the most
prominent families in Early county
and the killing for which he was con
victed grew out Of a family row. His
defense vas that he did the killing TO
save his father life, charging the
man had an axe drawn on his father
at the time he shot him. His father
was indicted. but was cleared of the
killing.
Evidence in the case tended TO show
that the man killed was under the
influence of narcotics at the time of
the shooting, auo this helped develop
the Governors belief that it was real
