NATIONAL TURNER'S HAVE
A GREAT BOXER in CLARK

owing to the fact that the tourney
was being conducted in their own
clubhouse. On this account the
judges found nothing in the way of
awarding the trophy, a beautifully
engraved silver loving cup, to the
New York Association.
But one knockout was recorded
during the evening. Henry Conrad,
an unattached New Yorker. sent
William Haug. of the Whirlwind A.
c., of this city, to the boards with
a stiff wallop to the jaw. 1t was in
the semi-final that the knockout oe-
CURED. Conrad being defeated in the
12S-pound final later in the evening
by Joseph Rosenwald, another unat-
tached performer, of Philadelphia.
The first final bout of the night,
the 13S-pound event, introduced Pete
Cassidy, of Orange, and James
Kearns. of the Pennant Athletic Club,
of New York. The former, by his
sterling finish, was awarded the deci-
sion. Neither knew much about the
scientific part of the game, but they
walloped away and kept the crowd
on it's feet
A National Turner, Joseph l.. Reese,
was a contender for honors in the
pound final bout. His opponent,
Augie Rather, of the Y. M. II. A.,
handed him such a lacing during the
affair, that the local youth welcomed
the bell on the conclusion of each
round. Reese had a long reach, but
that was about all.
Louis Quitera, the 135-pound Middle
Atlantic Champion, who drew a bye
on Saturday night, was declared two
pounds overweight by Coach Carl
Anderson, of Central High School,
who weighed the athletes. Quitera
was anxious to show Newarkers his
ability, however, and went three
rounds with his sparring partner,
Charles Midway. Had he been ell
gible, he would no doubt have taken
first prize in his class, judging from
his exhibition.

warnings that his team is sure to
break out through the lines at any
moment and create an upheaval in
the ranks of his more pretentious
enemies. The Reds manager has al
ways been very lucky against Me-
Graw and his Giants. and it may be
that he might break his run of hard
luck at the Polo Grounds. He has
beaten, almost single-handed, the
Giants out of game after game. and
we all know that he has beaten Nc
Graw out of pennant. Tinker is in
New York today and we will await
with keen interest the outcome.

And just across the bridge. leading
the scrappy Cubs, is that other Giant
killer. Johnny Evers Yes, Evers is
over in Brooklyn. the home of
Charley Harmony Ebbets, fighting
and nagging and as vicious as ever
and incidentally winning ball games.
Evers, as a manager, is really the
surprise of creation. Few could see
him beforehand cumming at all
with success, yet the king of the
Crabs" is sailing along swimmingly
lust one game from the leaders.
To Evers applause is in order, for
your humble servant, along with
numerous other-alleged If you will
experts, predicted dire failure as a
manager for the greatest little ball
player that ever called an umpire
out of his name. At umpire batting,
Evers was always a triumph and at
the game itself he was a dream of
action. But with a disposition to
cross rather than to corral We never
could dope him out as a manager of
men. His efforts, SO far at least,
have given the lie to keen observers,
and the best thing to do when the
figures go awry is to throw the old
dope book away. So. kersplash!

the name of Frank Chance, worse off,

that success was not in the making.

Little llS-Ponnder Shows Class
in Finals of Amateur
Tourney.
SCORES DECISIVE VICTORY
OVER A. A. U. CHAMPION
Although Local Club Wins Meet
1t Is Prohibited from TAX
ing Trophy.

Sammy Clark, of the National Turn
Verein, who has yet to go down be-
fore an opponent in a boxing exhibi-
ton, added to his lengthy list of VIC
tories in one of the final bouts of the
amateur boxing tournament held un-
der the auspices of the National Turn
verein, of this city. at its clubhouse,
IN Bruce street, last night. Clark,
who tips the beam not more than lis
pounds, displayed his knowledge of
the finer points of the game, and at
the conclusion of his bout with Carl
DUFFY, the Middle Atlantic A. A. U.
champion, at 12o pounds, convinced
a big crowd of spectators that he is
without a peer among simon pures in
these parts.
Duffy, who halls from Philadelphia,
came to this city with a reputation
q mile long, and although beaten last
night, he showed he is very good
boy. He is clever, has a nifty little
wallop and can go probably as well
as the next in longer mill. 1t was
Ciark's whirlwind finish, only, that
earned him the decision.
As the bout lasted but three rounds,
the A. A. u. limit, neither could show
ally he had, but both performed in a
style that would make even the best
lcok up and take notice.
Duffy returned everything Clark
showed his way in the first two
rounds. Clarls left jab worked beau
tffully, and occasionally a right sent
the Phiiadelphian's head back. Duffy
also had a left which he used to per-
lection at times, and a right to the
stomach found target on more than
q few occasions. Clark came out with
a rush in the final chapter and land
ed almost three blows to every one
of Duffy's. Urged on by the yells OF
his eliminates, the little Bruce streHt
performer fought as he never had be-
fore. and when the final bell rang
Referee Kirschner announced him as
the winner.
Several other well-matched AFFAIRS
were on the bill, and all furnished
lively evening of sport for those who
eniov the cleaner style of boxing.
