In playing ability, and that Tonnes

COMMENT
BY Ed W. Smith.

n HICAGO, March AFTER
giving the local fans just
a little taste of his style
and making them wish that he
might remain here and show them
the real thing in the fighting line,
Jimmy Clabby is hiking away.
He's going to the Pacific Coast,
there to continue what he firmly
believes will be an entirely sue
cessful march straight toward the
championship among the middle
weight boxers of the day With
his manager, Larry LiChtenstein,
he is going to Los Angeles, there
to prepare for whatever battles
may be offered in the immediate
future.
7 UST the other day Larney got
J a wire from the coast which
asked him if he cared to match
Clabby with Bob McAllister. the
San Francisco boy who made a
good and then a sorry showing in
New York rings. Larney is of the
opinion that the Clabby- McAllis-
ter battle is strictly a San Fran
cisco attraction, and has so indi-
Gated to the Los Angeles promo
ter.
IN DISCUSSING the peculiar
boxing strength shown by the
Hammond man, Larney advances

can get Jimmy Clabby quickly for
complete knockout that he
hasn't a chance in the world Of
beating him. He further ad-
vances the idea that the Ham
mond man is the greatest distance
battler in the world to-day in any
division, and that he fights
stronger and better after thu
good fighter does during the first
ten.
a remarkable fellow as this
one" Larney remarked the other
evening in discussing his new
protege. For man who has
few If any natural physical quail
of the world. But he has some
thing that is a fighters greatest
asset in the ring-that Is, his
well developed fighting instinct.
He has it stronger than any man
l ever handled, and it chiefly
what makes him the great man he
is to-day"
THERE'S ma man a. I.as4
that Jimmy won't get a crack
at for some time to come. His
name is George Chip, and he lives
In Newcastle, Pa. Just at the
present time George is merely liv-

tie with Joe Borrel, the hardy
Philadelphia middleweight, Chip
broke his right hand just below
the thumb joint He dion't know
It was broken, and kept on using
1t, still further aggravating the
trouble. Hence he will be laid
up for some time.
7 IMMY DIME, Chips manager,
j told the sorrowful news in
Chicago the other night, when
he passed through on his way
home after handling Patsy Bran

Milwaukee Monday night. He ad-
mits that he wouldn't be averse
at all to matching Chip with Clab-

Coast, out just now it is imposs-

as high as Mercer But In a game
like basketball where the showing
any team makes Is so greatly de-
pendent on whether II Is playing on
its home or a foreign court. account
must be taken of relative disparity
in scores Thus whereas Auburn
defeated Mercer by but ? points on
Auburn's court, Mercer won from
the Auburnites on their own court
by nearly so points; and that tells
what would, no doubt, have happened
on neutral court.
The spread OF the game among
prep schools is what is raising the
standard of play among the college
teams, They are beginning 20 come

Pigeon-shooting the forerunner Of
modern trapshooting, was a popular
sport in England during the last CEN

1898, and referred to as having al

"Old Hat" a famous public house at
Ealing, was for many years a favor

but later the Red House at Battersea
took precedence because it was more
easily accessible to LondOners. TO

to the activities of the place, and on
the establishment of the birmingham
Club at Fulham the amusement was
raised higher than before in general

by trapshooting, the name of which
is of American origin; and mani
mate targets, the product of Ameri-
can inVentiveness, have accordingly
been substituted for live birds.
OF course, in all this history, there
have been interesting stages. The
traps in use at the "Old Hat" were
shallow boxes, each about one foot
