MIKE O'DOWD GETS REFEREE
DECISION OVER SMITH

NEW YORK, Nov. 10-Mike o.
Dowd. the fighting Irishman of st.
Paul, who formerly held the worlds
middleweight championship title,
gained the referees decision over
jeff Smith. Bayonne middleweight,
last night in their fifteen-round bout
before a crowd of about 10000 IN
Madison Square Garden. The little
Celtic battler. plugging along at a
steady pace from start to finish OF
the bout. clearly outpofnted his rival
in a majority of the rounds.
After the fifteenth round, An
nouncer Joe HUMPHREYS said that
the judges, William Mulloon and
Charles Thorley, had disagreed. The
crowd, silently awaiting the decision,
broke loose in an outburst of disap-
prevail, which echoed through the
neighborhood. IL was almost a min
ute before quiet could be restored
and then HUMPHREYS clarioned that
the referee, Johnny Haukop, Brook
lyn, had rendered his decision IN
favor of O'Dowd. A spontaneous out
burst of approval. which threatened
to lift the roof off the building.
greeted this announcement.
The decision was a well-earned
one for O'Dowd. The little st. Paul
Celt carried the fighting from begin
ming to end of the battle and never
relented a minute in his assault,
Smith, ordinarily a clerver, fast,
heavy-hitting boxer. had no oppor-
tunity to employ any of his vaunted
speed in the face of his rivals per-
sistent attack.

I've lived in Kansas City and I've
had the K. C. Blues; and lots of us
have Volstead blues without our
hootch and booze. I've heard my
buddies talk about the Blues of
Memphis town and well l know
about the blues that get you when
you're down.
I've heard 'em sing about the
blues that come from losin' gals,
and well I know those indigoes you
get from quitting pals. The cost of
living blues have grabbed the ma
TONS nannies. too; and yet 1t costs
too much to die, so what's q man to
do?
But quite a different sort of blues
have got me in their grip. In fact.
no medicine can cure those blues
and make 'em slip. They're ebluer
than the ocean or the blue of sum-
mer sky. You want to hunt the
coroner and say you like to die.
The blues I've got are catching,
like the measles or a cold. and once
they've got You in their grip you
cannot break their hold. The
Frame-Up Blues l got, from reading
sporting sheets each morn and
they've got me so awful bad I wish
l wasn't born.
The series fixers started it and
boxers took the cue; the wrestlers
did their little act and billiard play
ers. too. At every turn you find
some new and startling piece of
graft. And if they keep it up, the
trame-Up Blues will drive us daft.

PHILADELPHIA 0ARSMEN
ACT ON SCULLING TITLE
BY The Associated Press.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 10:-
Local oarsmen have taken the mi
tiative to hold a worlds sculling
title race yearly to commemorate
the recent victory of John B.. Kelly
of the Vesper Boat Club in single
SOULS at the Olympics.
A petition has been addressed by
the Schuylkill navy, an organization
of local rowing clubs, to those in
terested in amateur rowing as fol-
lows:
THE recent victory of John B.
Kelly, we believe. is the only victory
ever recorded that may truly be
considered as representing the
worlds championship in amateur
single SOULS.
Heretofore the winning of the
diamond SOULS at the Henley has
carried with 1t the nearest approach
to such a title, but due to the fact
that any sculler, no matter how
valid his personal qualifications,
may have his entry refused by the
Henley stewards this event may we'll
be considered as a closed. local or
at least an invitation event.
"In his recen victories John B..
Kelly defeated not only the recent
winner of the diamond SOULS, but
the pick of all the amateur single
scullers from all nations of the
world"
