ROBEhT W. MAA"hbb bane leaned heav-
,ly against his chin. II took but s minutes
and 27 seconds to put Baltimore George to
sleep, but his slumber was sincere
Ertle Hits Toboggan
Johnny Ertle, the pride OF St Paul and
claimant of a questionable decision over
KID williams, stacked up against Benny
kaufman in the evening and demonstrated
that he possessed everything but class
when he finished poor second To the
local boy. This is not a slam at Kauf-
mans ability as a boxer. Benny is a
good boy. but never was regarded seriously
until he proved ba was the Kewpies
master Ertle was expected to do better,
but he fivved as uhany have fiivved before
All Of which proves that both CLANCY
and Ertle were guilty OF pulling bones"
They were going big against the pork
and beaners and should have kept II up.
The chances are that the Dear Old Public
would have fallen for their acts the same
as before and a little additional legal
tender would have come in handy during
the cold winter
Before CLANCY met Kilbane, he was the
most talked Of featherweight in the country
The d. o. P. really believed that he had
Johnnys goat" and the champion was
afraid to meet him. This advertisement
brought him many matches. and he selected
some of the easiest marks on the list.
Every opponent was carefully looked over
before the bout was arranged. No tough
customers would be tolerated. As a result,
George fattened his bankroll, made himself
more popular and was able to drag down
$500 win, lose or draw in the Kilbane
bout
Good Old Days Are Gone
But those good old days are over
George has been knocked out; the X o.
was put over with shameful ease, and his
foes in the future will not fear his terrible
left. No longer will Chaney be able %
pick his opponents. II he boxes again,
must meet the men selected for him by the
matchmakers of the clubs or there will be
nothing doing.
Johnny Ertle was in the same boat, only
more SO. His manager. Mike Nulty, would
not even consider match with a strong
bantam. but insisted on drawing down big
guarantees and selecting boxer who
didn't have a chance Young Diggins Joe
Tuber, Young McGovern and Joe O'DonnelI
are good examples, and Kaufman was sup
posed to be just as easy. But Nulty made
mistake and now must pay dearly for
