Substitute Noble
OutbOxes Murray
I'm l5-I2 oq1nd Bout

The crowd that filled Madison Square
Garden last night must have been as
hungry for boxing as Terence Mac
Swiney, Mayor of Cork, is for square
meal. That is the only thing that will
explain why some 10000 men and a
fair sprinkling Of fair women turned
out to see some bouts Of only moderate
quality at Richards club.
Tommy Noble, the English feather
weight, defeated Johnny Murray, of
this city, on points in the main bout
Of fifteen rounds. 1t was a fast fight,
with Noble earning seven rounds, Muir
ray three and five even. In the last
three rounds Murray came strong and
had his man very weak in the final
session, but this was not sufficient to
overcome Tommy's lead and the deci-
sion of Judges Joe Ruddy and Marty
McCue was a fair one.
Noble had been substituted for Andy
CLANCY, Of Baltimore, who was unable
to appear on account of death in his
family.
In the early rounds Murray's short
punches had more OF a kick than the
Enslishmans swings, but Tommy was
always forcing matters and gained the
favor of the crowd by his clean fight
ing. Once in the sixth. when Murray
slipped to the floor partly from one of
Tommy's rights to the jaw, Noble ex-
tended his hand to help his opponent
up, but Murray disdained the offer TO
the accompaniment Of "boos."
In the first bout the veteran Johnny
Clinton fought six rounds to a hard
hitting draw with Dave Medar. The
boys are fcathcrweights. Clinton had
the better Of three out of the first four
rounds and one was even, but Modar
closed 50 strongly in the last two scs-
sions that he appeared to have earned
draw, and so Joe Ruddy and Marty
McCue, the judges, decided.
In the next bout, a ten-round skit,
Danny Frush, of Baltimore and Mcrrie
England, gave Artie O'Leary, OF New
York, q sound beating in every round.
dark cloud descended over the
Garden at the start of the next bout
when George Robinson, of Boston, and
Panama Joe Cans stepped between the
ropes They were rather light on the
scales, 1922 and 15l1 pounds respec-
lively, but very heavy on the color.
George is brown, but Joe is black. 1t
was announced that the men would
battle twelve rounds or less for the
"cullud" championship Of the world.
Cans had all the better of the mill
ing in almost every round. Joe car
ried the heavier artillery in his mitt
and had Robinson not beeen glutton
for punishment he would not have
heard the bell at the end of the
twelfth round.
