- SAYS DAMON
KunyOl'n: !:
He Was Like a Drum:
Climbed Down from Cab.
Is PugiIistic Derelict.
Said Fight Was Fake.

1922. by Universal service.l
NEW YORK, Dec. 21.-Carl
IN Morris, the original white
hope" was knocked out the
other night by Fred Fulton,
called "The Pale Plasterer.
Morris and Fulton once had
fistic futures, now far behind
them. They remind US Of what
the brilliant Eng lis h m n,
Charles Fox, said years ago Of
the American general, Clairfayt,
an officer who was never VIC
torious:
"He was like a drum,-never
heard of but when he was beat!
Morris was a big, numbering
fellow who ran an engine out
Sapulpa, Okla, at the time Jack
johnson whipped Jim Jeffries.
Morris climbed down out Of his
cab when he heard the news and
became a pSiZe fighter. He
said he would never go back to
railroading until he had re-
stored the heavyweight title to
the white race. He meant ne
would never go back to WORK.
The white race was greatly
concerned because a negro had
won the heavyweight title. That
was in 1910, twelve years ago:
Now the white race is disturbed
because a white champion
doesn't hasten to give a negro
q chance to win the title again.
The Washington herald., 1922-12-22
MORRIS never came close to
Wl winning the title.

"OhhlS never came SlOSS w
lvl winning the title.
As a fighter he was a strong,
mauling fellow, not easy to
beat, but lacking what the fistic
followers call "class.'
"Class" in prize fighting does
not necessarily mean champion
ship caliber. 1t means style,
knowledge of boxing. Packey
Mcfarland was never a cham
pion, but he had "class."
Morris merely served to
make Jack Dempsey's reputa-
ton. He was just good enough
to stamp the man who beat
him decisively as something
beyond the ordinary. Dempsey
did that at Buffalo, and over
night became famous.
If Carl had stuck to his old
fob, he would today be drawing
good, steady wages. He might
have a position of responsible
ity. In twelve years a man
may go far in the railroad
business.
As it is Morris is now a
pugilistic derelict. He drifts
about in the backwash of the
game, a punching bag for such
as Fred Fulton.
Fulton, who quit B. useful
trade as plasterer to become
an Indifferent pugilist, reached
the threshold of a champion
ship career. He had more nat
ural ability than Morris, but
he lacked Morris courage.
The Washington herald., 1922-12-22

EULTON was knocked out in
l. one punch by Dempsey in
the old ball yard at Harrison,
n. ].
This was one fight the writer
attended but did not see. 1t
was a hot evening. We stood
up, removed our coat and
turned to drape it over the
back of a chair.
A wild yell caused US to look
around at the ring. Fulton was
on the floor. The fight was
over. The late Bat Masterson
supplied us with the details.
Fulton afterward said the
fight was a fake, that they had
agreed to box a certain num-
Der of rounds, and Dempsey
crossed" him.
Dempsey proved this story
false by going on to the cham
pionship. Fulton proved it
false by losing to men Demp-
sey could beat as easily as he
beat Fulton.
Fulton's story was substan-
TALLY the same as that told by
Battling Sikh about his fight
with Georges Carpenter. Los
ers frequently confess to fax
ing. 1t is rarely a victor ad-
mits that his victory was
crooked.

HOUSE AND FURNITURE
SWEPT AWAW-INSURANCE
SAVES THE DAY

Recently the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
w. G.. Bradley, on North Missouri
avenue, was greatly damaged by fire,
and their furniture was totally de-
stroyed.
Had Mr.. and Mrs. Bradley not had
the foresight and good business judg
ment to insure their property in a re-
liable company this fire would have
left them in very undesirable con-
dition.
AS it happened, however, they had
policy insuring both their home
and furniture in the Springfield Fire
and Marine Insurance Company of
Springfield, Mass. AS result they
have been enabled to replace their
home in better condition than before
the fire, and, in addition, were paid
$1,000 with which to replace their
furniture. Draft covering the amount
agreed upon for rebuilding the house,
and also the $1,000 carried on the fur
niture was handed Mr.. and Mrs.
Bradley today by Hetherington &
Holworthy, who are the representa-
tives in Lakeland of the Springfield
F. & M. Co.
The example of Mr.. and Mrs. Brad
ley is one that every property owner
should follow. There is nothing bet
ter nor cheaper than insurance in a
reliable company.
Beside the Springfield, Hetherinton
& Holworthy represent nine other
companies, the strongest and most re-
liable in the country. adv.
