FINNEGAN Is BEATEN

NEW YORK, November 24.-nIon-
eyboy Finnegan, Boston feather
weight, lost the decision to Joe
Click of New York in the feature
bout Of 10 rounds at the New Broad
way Arena in Brooklyn last night.
1t was Finnegan's New York debut,
and 1t cannot be said that he made
a very impressive bow.
He was a mark for Clicks right
hooks. and one of these spilled him
in the fourth round. He refused to
take a count and came up to fight
furiously, but there was always that
opening through which Click man
aged to shoot that wicket right.
Click took five of the ten rounds
fought, while Finnegan had the ad :
vantage in three. The others were
even.
Finnegan managed to land his left
often enough. frequently to the point
of Clicks chin, but it lacked the
power 1t was advertised to have
when the Bostonian invaded New
York.
Finnegan weighed 129&, while
Click scaled 1909. Finnegan was
introduced as a junior lightweight
rather than feather.

he thought a big price had been paid
for his services and wanted a part of
the money for himself.
When the st. Louis Nationals were
in California last Spring Scott was re-
siding near Stockton, where the Cards
trained. and Manager Hickey was on
the point Of entering into negotiations
with him.
The Cubs have been trying ever since

put through a trade that would in

and land two in their team who might

burgh were to figure in the deal, and

to be exchanged.
