A Story About Clarence Whistler

A Story About Clarence Whistler.
~ NE time in San Francisco,
Pete Mccoy, who was with
" John L. Sullivan as sparring
partner, kept slapping Whistler
on the neck.
Whistler, after asking Mccoy
to desist, turned to Sullivan and
said:
"If you don't make this fellow
stop he won't be able to appear
in your show tonight"
Sullivan laughed, and next time
Mccoy slapped him, Whistler
turned, picked him up, raised him
over his head and slammed him
ON the floor so hard that 1t
seemed every bone in his body
was broken.
Mccoy was unconscious for
twenty minutes, and Whistler,
now thoroughly enraged, turned
on Sullivan and shouted:
81 can do the same to you and
everybody that's with you.S-

Dope on Tom Gibbons.

Dope on Tom Gibbons.
" ERE'S the dope on Tom
In Gibbons chances, if he
enters the ring again with
Jack Dempsey:
Gibbons is the only man in
the world who has stayed fifteen
rounds with Dempsey.
At Shelby, Mont, Gibbons
showed himself a clever boxer,
game to the core, but lacking the
real knockout wallop.
Gibbons is older and smaller
than Dempsey, whose best work
in the ring has always been
when opposing the giants, such
as Fulton, Willard and Firpo.
Gibbons, with a record of
fifteen rounds against the
worlds champion, has more right
to a clash with Dempsey than
Georges Carpenter had, than
Jess Willard or Luis Firpo, or
that Harry Wills now has.
And if they meet in New
York, we expect to see Gibbons
carried out on a shutter.

They Will Often Fight

Necessary

The name of Erminio Spalla,
the Italian champion heavy
weight, has hummed over the
cables so often lately that the
only explanation is that he has
engaged an American press
agent.
If there is anything that a
fighter would rather see than
a large purse it is his name in
the paper.
He also is not totally indif-
ferent to fighting, if it is abso-
lutely necessary. .-.

in the way of many a punch, but
he managed to keep his feet on
the floor at all times.
Though beaten, Marchant
showed more promise than the
rugged Dundee. The BritOn pos
sesses boxing skill and hits sharp
ly but not accurately. He either
takes punishment unusually well
for a Briton, or Dundee's punches
lack a real kick. Marchant makes
many false moves and wastes
most of his blows on the ozone" /"
After such an exhibition, it
looks like ''back to Baltimore" for
Dundee.

The four minutes Of the Dempsey
Firpo battle were worth more than
the forty-five minutes Of the Demp-
sey-Gibbons affair. The first was
fight. The other was merely an
experiment for the purpose OF find
ing out whether Dempsey knew
enough about the game to be able
to break through a clever oppo-
nent's defense.
Dempsey could not do that be.
cause the champion has his limita'
tions. He is neither a cunning
ring general nor a good boxer, but
he is a great slugger. AS slugger
Dempsey probably never had su-
perior, but that does not mean that
he could have beaten some OF the
great fighters of other days.
The way Gibbons baffled Dempsey
at Shelby indicates that Jack viii
have plenty of trouble II he ever
encounters an opponent who can
box and hit hard. and straight.
Dempsey IL generally rated aS
one Of the greatest hltteIB tho
ring has ever seen, and he Is TO o
certain extent. With hooks, up
percuts and swinging blows.
Dempsey is q wonder and no mis-
take. But the champion knows
nothing about straight hitting.
The only time he ever tried 70
use q left jab was in the b0uO
with Bill Brennan at the Garden,
and Dempsey made himself look
ridiculous that night.
If Dempsey were to encounter q
man who can use straight rlgnt
like Peter Jackson he probaniy
would find that he still has mucn
to learn about the art of hitting
Georges Carpenter showed what a
tremendous advantage 1t Is to be
able to hit straight.
The slender and fragile Frencn'
man with his weak jaw and tender
body figured to last less than a
minute with the husky Dempsey
who is better built for the fighting
game than any champion the ring
has produced. In addition to mis-
physical handicap Carpenter SUI
fered because he knows nothing
about defensive boxing.
All Carpenter had was straight
right, and with that as his sole
asset he lasted four rounds ano
came within an inch Of winning
the championship from a man who
outclassed him in other respects SO

The first witness heard today was
Thorndike Saville, associate professor
of hydraulic engineering University
of North Carolina.
Mr.. Saville said he appeared be-
cause of his personal interests and
did not represent any industrial COM
pany. He declared he wished to rec
ommend acceptance of the southern
power companies bids. as he believed
the power Developments of Muscle
Shoals should be fitted in with the en-
tire development of the south.
Industrial companies locating in the
south, he added. desired to purchase
power rather than develop 1t them
selves. and the Muscle Shoals power
should be made available for such
economic development
