NC CARTHY DEFEATS
BATTLING Ia MONT
MINNEAPOLIS "PUG'' GETS OP.
PONENT IN SECOND ROUND,
AT LEGION BOXING SHOW

It took Tom Mccarthy of Minneapo
lis but two rounds to put Battling La
Monte of Swanville out of commission
at the boxing show staged at the Har
wha theatre Tuesday evening under the
auspices Of the local American Legion
post. Five hundred people witnessed
the bouts, about a hundred of them be.
ing from Swanville.
The briefness of the big bout, as well
US the leading preliminary, were some
what disappointing to the crowd.
McC Carthy and LaMonte were scheduled
to 60 ten rounds but it was very evi-
dent from the start that Mccarthy was
more seasoned battler. Early in the
second round, he landed the blow which
spelled defeat for LaMonte, the. Swan
vile man going down in one corner Of
the ring and did get back onto his feet
before the referee had counted ten.
Just as the referee called ten, he
jumped up and made for his opponent
but it was then too late. He was ap-
parently unhurt. Mccarthy did not
get out of it without any punishment,
however, as LaMonte dealt rim some
very effective blows straight from the
shoulder.
Paul Ringwelski of this city, who was
pitted against Kid LaMonte Of Swan
vile in the leading preliminary, dealt
his opponent the Knockout blow after
but one minute and twenty seconds of
battling. He landed one squarely on
LaMonte's jaw which put him down
for the count and necessitated his being
carried out of the ring.
Herbert Newman and David Dinner
went six rounds that were fast and in
teresting. These boys are we'll matched,
although Newman showed more speed.
Halvorson and Nelson, bantam
weights, second on the program, also
ibattled for six rounds, to draw. OF
all those participating in the prelimin-
aries Nelson showed the most clever.
ness.
The opening preliminary was between
Randall and and Melvin Jacobson,
featherweights, in four round bout.
For boys who had but little experience
in the ring they made good showing.
Mike Gibbons, who was advertised as
referee for all the bouts was not in
evidence and l.. w. Carson Of this city
was substituted. He officiated to the
apparent Satisfaction of all. Del Bat
ters and M. Trebiatowski were time
keepers.
Just before the big bout G. Droskow-
ski, announcer, read a telegram from
Battling Nelson Of Milwaukee challeng-
ing the winner Of this bout for a match
with his protege, Brown.

reinforcements have been received by
Mustapha Kemal Pasha, head OF the
Turkish Nationalist government at
Angora, and he Ia threatening to ad-
vance upon the Black Sea and the Sea
Of Marmora. The Angora government
ls said to have taken an arrogant at
titud toward the Allies. Dispatches
containing these statements were fea-
tured by London newspapers this morn
ing, and the situation in Asia Minor
was declared to hold alarming pos
sibilities.
Assertion Is made by the Daily
Sketch that the British government
had received reports of grave nature
from it's representatives in Constants
nople, which is declared to be menaced
with capture by the Turkish Nation
alists. Tha newspaper says large re-
Inducements for British troops in Con-
stantinopie are necessary if that city
and the Dardaneles are to be retained
in the hands of the western powers.
British representatives there, the news
paper says, have advised the govern
ment that If reiEforcements are not
available it is desirable that British
forces in the Near East and Middle
East be withdrawn to India.
A Constantinople dispatch to the
Daily Mail reports the British battle
ships Iron Duke and King George have
been ordered to the Dardanelles, it be-
ing intended that they will join in
operations against the Nationaiists by
blockading Black Sea ports and cover
ing the landing of Greek reinforce
ments, The dispatch implies that the
British warships Benbow and Centaur,
which recently have been engaged in
target practice on the Sea of Marmora.
will cooperate with the two battleships.
and prediction is made that British
destroyers will soon arrive in the
Straits.
Corroboratlon of these reports is
lacking in official quarters, where it is
stated the British government has not
reached any decision regarding the diff
ficulties.
