with a .barrage of punches just
as the bell ended the 18th.
The knockdown in the ninth
the second in Paddy's career OF
some SO fights, signaled the out
come. The battering in the 14th
spelled out the finish and act
ually the technical knockout in
| the 18th was anti-climatic.
The fight was televised ma
! tionally and attracted an esti-
mated 1900 spectators to the
Cow Palace. Gate receipts were
| $48.676.
| Carter was delighted in re-
gaining the title. He called it
the biggest thrill since he started
boxing in 1916.
DeMarco Blasts Referee.
His manager, Willie Ketchum,
said he has no immediate plans
| for Jimmy but he is definitely
interested in a title match with
one of the Nations newest tele-
vision attractions, California S
Cisco Andrade. Los Angeles
would be an ideal spot for such
a fight since Cisco lives nearby.
Bitter criticism of Referee Ray
Flores came from the DeMarco
camp. Paddy accused Flores of
pushing" him. HE had me off
balance all night" Paddy
charged, referring to Flores ef-
forts to separate the men in the
clinching.
THE referee wouldn't let me
fight inside" Paddy continued.
"I'll fight Carter any time. In
three weeks, if he wants to. I
know I can beat him any time" !"
This was Paddy's first fight
since he won the title from Car
ter. and he said the layoff hurt
him. He also said he favored
his left elbow. It was this elbow
quirk which led Paddy to post
pone the original date last June
for the rematch.
Carter's Body Blows Tell.
Carter simply had too many
weapons for DeMarco. He started
out a little slowly and Paddy
forged into an early lead.
Then Jimmy began moving in.
He kept an excellent left hand
working to the head, and his
right had stern authority.
DeMarco showed little in the
way of an effective right and did
most of his punching with his
left.
Carter's terrific left hook to
the chin sent DeMarco to the
canvas in the ninth.
Two jolting rights to the mid
die of Paddy's stomach probably
set Paddy up for the crushing he
later received in the 14th round.
Ketchum kept yelling for Carter
to "get underneath and the
body punches began to tell mid
way in the fight.
Paddy absorbed an awful beat
ing in the l4th. He sopped up
more blows as the 18th opened.
He was in miserable shape, un-
able to continue a game per-
formance, when the match was
stopped.

PHILADELPHIA. Nov. 18.-
The tall. thin man-no longer
spry and erect--entered the ho-
tel ballroom haltingly with the
help of a cane and his om-
nipresent chauffeur.
Some one started singing
Happy Birthday" and every one
joined in the slightly off key
male chorus that grew in vol
ume and dissonance.
For many Of those present it
was throat filling moment as
the old man with the matching
white eyebrows and hair was
guided across the ballroom floor
to a sheltered cake.
There were indications that
Connie Mack was making one
of his final public appearances.
Stays Only Is Minutes.
It was probably one of the
noisiest and saddest birthday
parties on record. The illustrious
guest of honor stayed only Is
minutes and that brief period
was one of f1ashbulb popping,
singing, cheering and pushing
activity-the kind he would have
enjoyed more a few years ago.
It wasn't really Comics birth

ber 23-two days before Christ

Reciprocity Club, Philadelphia
fraternal organization, wanted to
honor the grand old man of
baseball and his longtime

the Washington Senators.
They invited a number of local
sports figures like Howard
Ehmke, who once pitched for
Connie Mack in the heyday of
the Athletics. And there was

Mack--with his chauffeur and

in a corner of the ballroom.
While the photographers took
picture after picture, he posed,
holding a business-like carving
knife poised over the top tier.
He was one of the few there
who could have reached that
high.
Then they took him to one of
the dinner tables. Again the fash

tables toward the door. In a

didn't seem to be nearly as much
gayety in the room.
Ehmke, the pitcher of days
gone by, watched his former boss
depart.
"All I wanted to do was shake
his hand" Ehmke said. "They
didn't want to even let me close
to him. But I managed to do it.

Of possible 100 score in a recent
inspection conducted by Mobile
Homes Manufacturing Co.
Only few small ruts in road
way at the rear of the Grove kept
the Erie township trailer park
from perfect score, inspectors
said as they gave Meachen Grove
the highest possible rating on
water, sewer, electricity utility
building, recreational facilities,
landscaping, services offered, park
construction, and overall attrac-
tiveneSs.
The Trailer Park has $4,000
square feet of space and accoma-
dates 35 trailers. Originally start
ed by the Kinks as a'fishing camp,
it has been expanded into its pre-
sent size since Mr.. Kirk retired
from his Toledo position 18-months
ago.
Among the trailer families now
at Meacken Grove are construc-
ton workers, many of them own
ing their own permanent homes
in other states, and Erie Ordnance
Depot workers. Mobile homes
quartered there include one As
footer. Several others are Al feet
long.
Inspectors, highly compliment
tary at the Ottawa county project,
said the grade was an exception
ally high one. They termed the
Kirk enterprise a "home" park
rather than the usual trailer"
park, in view of the space allotted
each trailer.
The Kinks worked closely with
the Board of Health in setting up
their park, which fully met all re-
quirements.

the auditor pointed out. The
changes it lists are made up prin-

He said the company, making a
county wide reappraisal of real es-
tate, is about half through with
its work and the new valuation
based on its findings will be made

ton or assessment, except the val

made by the Department of Tax
alton, will be heard by the Board
of Revision on or before Oct. 4.
