Newark evening star and Newark advertiser., 1915-04-14

Weinert seemed to tire, but before
that round and after that round he
was a regular reindeer. He fought
very careful battle-clever and clean.
Smith had the advantages Of weight
and experience, but Weinert over
came those with his speed and his
science. Weinert had eight of the
rounds, and one, the second, was
even. The men were very anxious in
the tenth round, especially Smith, and
they did not hear the bell clang end
ing the round. The bell Is an electric
affair and 1t got out OF order and did
not make much of a sound. The
timekeeper rang It three times and
finally he was compelled to call the
referees attention to stop hostilities.
Both fighters laughed as they went
to their corners, but Smith looked as
IL he knew he had done poorly. He
is not as good man as he used to
be and he has lost his punch. Vein
ert is his master and Weinert will
beat all the possibilities before he
gets through with the game.
C
While the fight was fast and the
efforts vicious, little damage was
done. Smiths nose bled. his lips
were bruised and his face and body
were red from Weinert's tantaiizing
jabs, but he was not marked up to
any extent. Weinert went into the
ring with a black eye. He came out
of it with the same eye slightly more
swollen and his lips puffed. Other
wise he was as handsome as ever,
and he went to the baths on West
Park street last night, so as to come
out today for his usual promenade
as presentable as possible. He said
he would like to get on another fight
right away and Jack Bulger, his
manager, is out scouting to secure an
opponent for him.

It has been suggested that Jim
Savage would be worthy opponent
for weinert, but Charley doesn't
think so. It may be that Weinert
Isn't anxious for Savage's game. but
there 10 a raving desire. just the
same, to see the men box. Savage. at
present. Is in the iimelight because OF
his connection with the training
camp Of Jess Willard. the now cham
pion, and a fight between Jim and
Weinert would be a great attraction,
Savage, II is said. is willing to fight,
and 1t looks as II It is really up to
Weinert to make the match. II both
men mean business the rest will be
easy, and the fans around here are
Just clamoring for such a battle.

weinert's easy victory over Smith
will be very startling news to a good
many Of the wiseacres of the Pru
who know all about sports, but who
never have the change or the inclina-
ton to go and see them. The Pru tin
horns, 1t seems, have been saying al
along that weinert was getting toe
much attention and that Smith would
knock his block off and all that. o.
course, that kind Of barroom tall
doesn't cut much of figure with the
superior sportsmen, and II only make:
the braggards and the wise Ikes'
lappear ridiculous 1t is not alwayi
we'll to roast your own townspeople
especially when they are showing
such evidence of life as is Weinert
This youngster isn't perfect by an!
means, but he Is great boxer. ant
some day he may be the champion o
the world He will always be, In an!
event, however, bigger man thai
those who hang around cafes panninl
him without cause.
