n uI.Y hIsKI o. 20 fight ten
- rounds with Charlie weinert
tonight 81 the broadway IN
nrookiyn. Wsinert is trying ~ come
back 10 the position he lost when
Fultoa beat him 30 easily. Charlie
is a clever boxer. and there vas a
time when he looked about the best
% The runners-up. Fulton's jabbing
left gave him a setback that was
hard 10 overcome. and ho has been
quietly working with the hope Of
making his way back 10 the lime
light.
Mists is one of our busiest young
hattiera. He gave Carl Morris fifty
pounds and a beating last Friday
evening. Miske'u speed and hard.
clean hitting overcame the handicap
of bulk. In the last two or three
rounds no punched Carl whenever
he pleased. The Oklahoma giants
great strength and his well known
gameness was all that enabled him
10 weather the beating that hiske
delivered.
ON his showing with Morris and
other big men Miske should have lit
tie trouble with Welnert.
~ARL MORRIS has been a child
OF misfortune ever since no
came out AS the original white
hope" He won three or four fights
IN the oil well country and came East
under the direction OF Mr.. Ufer. an
oil capitalist. At that time Okla
homans thought Carl was directly In
line for fight with Jack johnson
and the title. Ills first bout In New
York was with Jim Flynn. tough
citizen OF about half his sligo. What
Flynn wore IN his left glove beside
his fist has never heen disclosed. In
any case, he used that left on Carl,
and he might as well have used o
caikcr's mallet. Carl took the worst
beating ever given n man In n New
York ring. He took gnmely. al
ways walking IN, always refusing TO
70 down when there was every rea-
son In the world for seeking the
floor. That fight cost Morris n
broken Jaw, some teeth, a broken
nose, HIS hope OF an immediate rise
10 the front rank OF the heavyweight
class and n chance 20 make n mint
OF money. II gave him n reputation
for gameness that win never be for
gotten by any one who saw him try
10 fight. He was game enough TO
no right on boxing in the town that
had seen his downfall. and In the
course OF a ftsv months he began to
make good. Since then he has done
: fairly well, except In n fight with
0unboat Smith and his most recent
mAtch with Fulton, both OF which nc
lost on fouls.
Morris is big. clumsy. numbering
and no boxer. lie can do nothing al
lonR range, but has to lean on hit
man and beat away at him with shor'
punches and uppercuts.
willard avoids Morris because h'
thinks Carl In very rough person
out other fighters take him on. II,
beats the Morans. CoffeyA and som,
OF the other big heavyweights, bu
finds the little fellows like Gunboa
smith and Miske very annoying i
Norris could be locked In a room with
any other boxer. with no refero,
present, he would have n chance Z,
become worlds heavyweight cham
plon. Unfortunately for him, light
Ing isn't done In that way to-day
He shouid have been born a coupl
Of hundred years sooner.
