Though Charley Weinert bested
Roy Kenny in every one of the ten
rounds of their bout at the Fair
mount \. C., in New York. Saturday
night, he will never be given much
credit for his efforts. The fight was
pronounced by those who witnessed it
to have been the worst ever seen in
any r.ng. Kenny is SO bad that the
wonder is he has ever been able to
get on match. and the New York
Boxing Commission should see to il
that he isn't allowed to perpetrate his
talent" on the gullible public any
more. Weinert made repeated ef-
forts to get 10 Kenny, but the fellow
would either double up like a crab,
run away or clinch like a vise Wei
merit showed his disgust at Kenny
antics, and in his anxiety to make u
respectable showing he at times
looked foolish himself. Those who
haven't seen Kenny perform cannot
very well imagine what n huge joke
he is. lie will never be permitted to
again show at any club managed by
Billy Gibson, who, by the way, in
structed Billy job, who refereed the
terrible bout at the Paramount Sat
urday night, to throw Kenny out of
the ring" jon didn't obey orders,
and allowed the freak contest to con
tinue. Afterward Kenny was paid
real money for his services, which
was the worst crime of all.

Roy Kenny is one of four brothers
al of whom took part in bouts at
the Fairmount's show, and all OF
whom were beaten. Three of the
brothers were outpointed. and the
other one, who seemed to know some
thing about the game. was disquali-
fed for fouling in the first round. In
this round he was given the worst
of it. for his alleged foul was neither
intentional nor did he in any way IN
jure his opponent. However. we saw

fighters.

del, the Boer at the Broadway Sport
ing Club in Brooklyn next Saturday
night, and on Monday, May %, he
will fight in the star bout at the
Stadium a. G. in New York. with
One-Round Davis, OF Buffalo, as his
probable opponent. Manager Gibson,
of the Stadium, said Saturday night
that if Davis wouldn't fight Weinert
he would try to get Al. Reich, who
seems to be much in favor because
of his quick victory over Jack Davies,
the California mystery, AS a result

left eye, but outside of that he is
O. X. He says he is tending strictly
to business. He had better be in
prime condition when he meets Ro-
del, for the Boer will give him 4
pretty good test.

Newark fans seem to be very much
interested in the bout billed for to-
morrow night at Bill Browns be-
tween Billy Lewis and Dave Kurtz.

these scrappers is more than keen,
and warm contest is expected.
Kurtz claims to be able to defeat
Lewis handily, but Tom Messenger,
who is looking after Lewis. says Billy
will give Dave a good clicking" Much
depends on the outcome of the bat
tie from Lewis standpoint. If Billy
should defeat Kurtz beyond dispute
he will likely get on a match with
Al. Mccoy, the new middleweight
champion. Lewis was all but
against Mccoy for the
Sporting Club, but Jack
