frankie Moran would step in and wal
lop jim CoTcy on the jaw-and then
good night. 1t happened just as he
said, and the Dublin giant was tioored.
While Moran gets credit for a knock
out, Cotfey was not really sent over
the sleep route. as he was on his feet
after the hfth count. He was EroEsy,
however, and the referee promptly
called halt to the mill
Jess Willard will now have to stop
sdcstepping fight. II was announced
that he would meet the winner of last
nights setto. and it is now up to the
former cowpunch to keep his word.
In Moran. Jess will have an opponent
to he feared The scrap put up by
frankie against Jack Johnson was "a
corker, and last night he showed that
he could still handle his mitts 10 adj
vantage. Moran has never been one
to dissipatc.' and is in his prime as "A
fighter. He has had the advantage of
meeting some OF the best men in the
ring, and when he faces willard il
should be battle royal.
Again somebody has found a job for
Jack Dunn. II is proba bile that Dunnic

rhankSgiving Day.
There seems 10 he a movement on

goat OF the late worlds series. In case
Bert declines tho nomination Pat Mo-
ram will probably have TO run.
Garry Hermann is In favor Of disni-
fed peace. We suspect Garry is look
ing for something To ratify with n cou-
pic of cases Of grape juice with the
singer in ii.

Jackets looked like the real thing
against the Blues last Saturday, while
