HUMBLE ANATUER Is
ONLY MAN TO KNOCK
OUT NIGH TY FIRP 0
Argentinian's Solitary Defeat
Sustained at Hands of
Angel Rodriguez
WON MANY KNOCKOUTS
All But Two of Thirteen Bouts
ougth in United tates Won
BY Knockout Route

IS NEW YORK, Sept. 13.-(By the
Associated Press.)-Louis Angel
Firpo was knocked out in his first
ring appearance as an amateur in
Argentina, but since then he has
never met defeat, his record re-
veals.
Firpo's solitary defeat was at
the hands of gentleman amateur,
Angel Rodriguez, now retired from
active ring competition. 1t was in
January, 1917. The Argentine fol-
lowed this setback with string of
victories, first as an amateur, and
then as a professional in various
parts Of South America. He won
a score or more of bouts by knock
outs against leading South Ameri-
can heavyweights before he made
his debut in the United States ear
ly in 1922.
Firpo has fought 10 times sinct
then, six of his bouts occurring on
exhibition tours of this country,
Mexico and Cuba. He won all but
two by knockouts. The record of
these fights follows:
1922-Sailor Maxted, K.O., Z
rounds; Joe McCann, K.O.,
rounds; Jack Herman, K.O., 5
rounds; Jim Tracey Cat Buenos
Aires), K.O., A rounds.
1923-BilI Brennan, K.O., ~
rounds; Jack McAuliffe, II, K.O.,
rounds; Jack Herman Cat Ia
vana, Cuba), K.O., 2 rounds; Jim
Hubbard Cat Mexico City,. K.O.,
2 rounds; Jess Willard, K.O., 8
rounds; Joe Burke, X. O. rounds
Homer Smith, won decision, 10
rounds; Charley Weinert, K.O.,
rounds: Joe Downey, won decision,
10 rounds.
Angel Firpo has style all his
own in the ring. He admits his
faults, but points to his unbroken
string of triumphs as proof of his
ability to get results in his own
way. He is confident that his
methods, unorthodox as they may
be, will enable him to wear the
worlds heavyweight crown after
his battle with Jack Dempsey at
the Polo Grounds tomorrow.
Firpo has been heset by advis-
ers, well-wishers and the like, both
in his pugilistic and business af-
fairs, ever since he rose to promi-
nence in this country. But the
Argentine giant has listened, then
waived most of them aside.
Firpo's first pugilistic efforts
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1923-09-13

here, early in 1922, showed him the
rawest of novices but possessed of
astonishing strength and a club
like right that offset ali other
handicaps. His amazing strength
and punching power alone were
responsible for his early victories
over Sailor Maxted, Joe McCann
and Jack Herman, third-raters.
Then, about a year later, he re-
turned to the United States to
box Bill Brennan. Firpo won by a
knockout in the twelfth round, but
only after sustaining terrific pun
ishment. Again his bull-like cour-
age and power pulled him through
where his awkward attempts at
ring science failed. He was guilty
of the most ELEMENTARY of ring
faults, leading with his right. His
footwork was of the crudest, and
he had no effective defense.
Just before this bout he was put
under the tutelege of Jimmy De-
Forest, veteran trainer, who had
conditioned Dempsey for the fight
in which he took the title from
Jess Willard. Some effects of this
tutoring wer apparent when Firpo
won from Brennan, but the South
American was still lacking in many
essential points of the game.
Firpo showed vast improvement
in all-round form when he knock
ed out Jack McAuliffe. His foot
work and defense were better than
in any of his previous perform
ances, while he still retained his
irresistible attacking power
Again Willard, numbering object,
Firpo did not show to remarkable
advantage, but he fought his own
battle and won decisively.
Firpo is a natural fighter. His
style is instructive, rather than the
result of rigorous preparation. lie
learned much from DeFoest, but he
profited most from experience.
He has acquired ring knowledge
and generalship quickly. lie has
proved that he can take the hard
est of punishment, weather the
hottest of fistic storms, and come
back with a demolishing attack of
his own.
Against Dempsey Firpo will be
vastly improved in form over his
earlier performances. He is not as
fast, nor has he the champions
repertoire of blows, but he has
added a fair measure of skill and
scientific ability to his rugged
strength. Firpo's left may be more
of an asset to him than ever be-
fore, as a result of his training,
but his rights to the body and the
head will be his most effective
punches, the blows by which he
hopes to take the title back to
Buenos Aires.

REP. PATTERSON
SLIPS AWAY TO
GET MARRIED

Representative Girdell Patterson
of Renville county absented HIM
self from the house Saturday. His
friends feared he was i'll.
He returned this afternoon,
smiling, and confided the reason.
Rep. Patterson travelled to Glen
dive, Montana, met there Miss
Anna Anderson Of Spokane, Wash
ington. They were married and
returned to Bismarck for the re-
mainder of the session after
which they will go to Mr.. Patter-
sons farm six miles from Donny-
brook.
Rep. Patterson, was given hearty
greetings by his colleagues. Rep!
Walker, however, demanded an
explanation on the floor of the
house of his absence and Rep.
Patterson replied by asking the
speaker to name committee to
take charge of the lobby refresh
ment stand and treat the mem
bers. The invitation wasn't ac-
copied, and a motion to extend the
courtesies of the floor to Mrs. Pat
terson carried unanimously.

The house approved bill putting

The house also debated the $15,-
900 appropriation recommended by
the appropriations committee for
cooperative campaign with the
federal government to eradicate
the barberry bush, carrier of black
stem rust. The senate had put the
figure at $4,000.
Rep. McGauvran, Cavalier coun-
ty, opposed the appropriation, say
ing that the rust has become
worse during the years Of the bar
berry campaign, and that he took
no stock in the argument that rust
was spread through these bushes.
Rep. Morton. Oliver, Mercer
and Dunn, declared the barberry
talk was mainly propaganda, and
that a Missouri man told him the
state was full of barberry and
they had no rust.

and took place on the quarterback Of

"SAM" PEPYS
ACCOUNT IN
BANK IN RED

London, Feb. q. - The bank in
which Samuel Pepys kept an ac-
count-which remained overdrawn
when he died has just celebrated
its 250th anniversary. 1t is one Of
the three oldest banks in London,
and goes-by the name of Messrs
Hoare & Company. Since the begin
ming it has been ruled by the Hoare
family, eldest son succeeding eldest
son as head of the firm.
Time has not changed many of
the customs begun by the founders.
To this day member of the house
of Hoare sleeps every night in one
of the quiet bedrooms overlooking u
peaceful garden in the rear of the
banking house, which is in Fleet
Street. Every morning at nine o'clock
he unlocks the big front door with
a huge key. This tradition began IN
the seventeenth century. In those
days coaches could not be depended
upon to get one down to business
on time, so one of the partners was
assigned to sleep at the bank.
In the old days a leather black
jack hung outside the door, the bank
being at the sign of Eye Olde Lea
Their Bottell." The black jack is still
Il part of the bank, and so is fine
old Georgian stove, and quill pens.
Adding machines have not noiscd
their way into the business.
In the rear is parlor said to be
built on the site Of DR.. Johnson's
Mitre Tavern. Under the carpet is
a hole through which wine barrels
used to be lowered into the vaults,
now piled with deed and plate boxes.
A staircase leads to handsome ia
mily apartments, where every day
the partners still around cleaning
mahogany table. using an old sand
sprinkler for a pepper pot. A wafer
holder serves as a mustard jar. The
chairs about the table were made
by Chippendale especially for the
room, and around the walls hang
portraits of the generations Of cid.
est sons who have ruled the bank.
Pcpys account is to be seen in
the earlier of the surviving ledgers.
1t records that he deposited 200
pounds in 1GS0--long after the diary
stops. Pepys soon overdrew the ac-
count by ID pounds, and it never
thereafter balanced. Later, Crom-
well did business at the bank, but
his account did not slip into the
red.
