Every Round.

Billy Lewis handed out a stiff lacinG
to Smiling Kelly in four rounds at
Troxler's Central Institute last night.

blows administered during the mill

throughout, which made the contest
uninteresting at times.
Joe Denike and Kid Young battled
four rounds to a draw. The pair, both
colored, furnished considerable amuse-
ment throughout, though they worked
hard all the way. Denike endeavored
to stop his opponent in short order,
but Young, well aware OF that fact,
kept away and got over some good
punches.
Kid Black disposed OF Frankie Hu-
Der in the second round. The winning
blow was straight from the shoulder
and Huber caught 1t flush on tn"
jaw.

Milwaukee last night. No decision
was rendered, but the verdict of
the newspapers indicates that 1t was
a good fight and good draw.
Welsh had the better of the early
rounds, but White came strong at
the finish and the experts said he
evened matters sufficiently to earn a
draw. The bout drew s24,500. of

champion says he had the time of

royal reception in his home town,
but IL was at Terre Haute that he
was treated to a big surprise and q
big time. The reception in question
was arranged by some old-time bike
riders and bike fans, among them
Kramer's uncle. Herman Euler, and
Hal Dronberger and Anton Huffman,
champions of Indiana In their day.
The whole affair was a surprise to
Kramer and the champion says 1t
was one of the most pleasant hat
penings in his life. He was called
upon for a. speech and he broke all
his own records by talking one hour
and a half, during which time ne
recounted his career from the first
day he rode in a race until the pres
ent day. The champion is SO enthu-
siastic over the Terre Haute cele-
bration and the speech he made there
that he says he now has the political
bee In his bonnet. He said yesterday
he had an ambition to become the
sheriff of Essex county, but he didn'.
know just when he would want to

IRitchie Has Stiff Training
Siege Ahead to Regain Title

The result of Willie Ritchie's four
round contest with Johnny Dundee In
San Francisco recently, is expected to
convince the x-champion lightweight
that he will have to get busy and
train properly If he expects ever to
win back the championship. Willie,
according to the San Francisco papers,
was overweight and secured only
draw. Dundee has been showing
form Of late, but he got only q
draw with Willie Beecher, of New
York at Los Angeles In twenty
rounds, which also makes the tough
New York boy look pretty good now
that Richie secured only the same
with Johnny.
Richie is husky lad to make the
133-pound mark, and 1t is doubtful
whether he will be able to make 1t
again without weakening himself
thereby, although with proper care
and steady training he might do 1t
without serious results. In the fu-
ture II is q good bet that Willie will
not go into the contest knowing that
his condition is not perfect.

Chicago Lightweight Over
comes Welsh's Lead by Work
in Ninth and Tenth Rounds.

MILWAUKEE,, Wis, Nov. u
The pugilistic lightweight champion
ship crown worn by Freddie Welsh, or
England, was furnished here last
night in a fiercely-fought ten-round
contest when Charley White, the
Chicago youngster, received a news
paper draw decision. Under the law
a referees decision was not legal put
Il was the general opinion that White
was entitled to a draw by reason or
his whirlwind finish.
In the tenth session White opened
a wound over Welsh's right eye, and
Freddie was unable to use the optic
White took advantage of this fact and
rained a series of blows on Welsh 5
head. Welsh was forced to break
ground in this session in order to
escape Whites terrific punching with
both hands.
There was little to choose between
the pair in the opening round, but
White woke UP in the second round
and obtained the honors by a slight
margin. He continued to carry the
fight to his man and improved his
position in the third and fourth
rounds. At this point, however.
Welsh rallied and won the next two
rounds.
Welsh began to display champion
ship class in the fourth. He backed
White into corner and gave him a
good lacing. In the fifth Welsh took
another big lead, whaling White all
around the ring and taking little
punishment in return. The Chicago
boy showed better In the sixth, but
Welsh Jared White with lefts and
took the round by shade.
White came back strong in the
seventh, and, after taking two hard
smashes on pke face, shook up Welsh
with a right White failed 20 connect
with two uppercuts, and took two
rights In the ribs, but was not dis
couraged, and hooked Welsh in the
head. The round was about an even
break,
welsh earned the honors in the
eighth by a. slight margin, though
both boys missed many punches.
Welsh got home three lefts to the
head as the round ended.
White had Welsh's number In the
ninth. They traded punches at the
bell, and, after a hard rally in the
middle of the ring, the Yankee boy
made the title-holder break ground.
White forced Welsh into a corner and
laced him with rights and lefts to the
body White landed two rights on
Welsh's jaw as the round ended.
White forced the fighting in the
tenth, again driving Welsh into a
corner, where he got in five punches
without a return. White opened up a
cut over Welsh's eye and peppered
him with rights and lefts to the head
Welsh swung wildly, with blood
trickling into his eye. He went into
a clinch, and as they broke White
landed two lefts to Welsh's head and
right to his jaw. The last two
rounds were Whites all the way
White left the ring without a mark
while Welsh was bleeding profusely

The weinert match with Dillon was
q bad one at best. Jack Is small,
rugged and fast, and he can fight like
a warrior bold when he wants to. He
has had wide experience and he is
notably body fghter-just the kind
of q fighter that would make 1t mis-
cradle for Weinert. Dillon Is not tall
and he crouches in an awkward way.
To have beaten Jack, Weinert would
not have received any great amount
of credit, but to lose to him is almost
q disgrace. Weinert, until last night,
was looked upon as the best-loohng
prospect in the business. All the "big
league" managers were talking about
him. Now, however, he Is not much
gone back wofully as an artist.
@
The sad reverse at the hands of
Dillon may do Weinert a lot OF good.
1t might even have been better for
him If the whipping had been more
prolonged and more severe. He Is
young and he may forget his sad
plight in that second round and he
may eventually work into the lime
light again. AS compared to yester-
day, though, he Is nothing and his
value as an attraction is almost nil.
weinert's chest may have been out of
kilter and he may not have been in
proper condition to go on with Dill
lon, but If this Is really so then he
has his own weak judgment to blame.
He is badly touted fighter, yet II
is interesting to know that some Of
his good friends" have finally got
ten him a darn good licking and set
him back for year at least In his
profession, II they have not spoiled
him entirely.
Early in his career predicted great
things for weinert, but from recent
| developments am not one bit sur.
prised at his downfall AS remarked
| before, the defeat may do him good.
He will find that as loser he Is not
such a much with his followers as
when he Is a winner. Even the most
plausible alibi will not offset the blow,
and those who paraded around with
him in his success may not care to
chum with a failure. 1t is an old
story. Incidentally. wonder how
