THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. MONDAY. MAY 12. 1M3. Bringing Up Father Copyright. 1.913, International News Service. By George McManus By W. W. Naught on. S AN FRANCISCO, May ‘ .—The results of world’s championship rights from time to time have served to show that "expert opinion*' is not always to be depended upon. For that matter there have been few Blue Ribbon affairs in which the wisdom of the so-called good judges has not received a rebuke. In the latest championship event, the Kilbane-Dundee bout, there were times when the fellows who thought they knew’ were on tlie anxious seat. They feared, that another Terry Mc Govern-Young Corbett catastrophe was in store. There were trying moments indeed for the educated sports who had bet 10 to 4 right up to the ringing of the starting bell and who w-ere loud in their lamenta tions over the scarcity of short end spurts. The outcome of the fight will mean a boost for young man Dundee and a corresponding setback for Cham pion Kilbane. The latter started out loaded with confidence to the Pllm- soll mark—carrying a deck load of fat—but the experiences of the first few rounds played havoc with his self-reliance. Dundee Missed Great Chance. There are many who state that Dundee missed the chance of his life in the Los Angeles fight. Kilbane. despite his talk of excellent condi tion and his announcement that the; Dundee go was largely in the nature of a trial poise as he intended to in vade the lightweight ranks, put up; one of the sorriest showings of his career. He was palpably tired in several rounds while Dundee seemed chuck full of strength and ginger. Had Dundee waded in more deter minedly instead of trying* to impress upon the crowd that he w as equally as clever as Kilbane, New York might be boasting a world’s cham pion at the present tifne. To the writer Dundee appears in the light of a youngster who pos- , sesses fine natural righting qualifica tions and does not know how to use them. He seems imbued with an in ordinate desiic to feint without hav ing any object in view. He keeps ducking when there is nothing to duck from and he is slow to follow WjV a.i advantage. He showed conclusively that he had good punching force. Some of the stiffest smashes during the bout were the body rights with which Dundee countered Kilbane’s glancing right handers. instead of piling in after landing heavily in the manner described. Dundee straightened up and feinted and fiddled because Kil- ’ bane feinted and fiddled, and you ran depend upon it that the New Yorker's 1 tactics suited the fast tiring Kilbane to a nicety. Dundee’s Blows Lack Force. Another fault in Dundee’s methods is the frequency with w hich he leaps j in the air when rrYfng to score'writh ^ A > v ' I want * KE <i of beei? ^>ent uoyo IT ' r HOi)*»F • Nelson’s Mgr.

Now. however, that the Easterner hax earned the right to travel in se lect company, he may try to correct some of his shortcomings. If the does not. make the attempt he w’ill; not he able to show the best that is In him. Kilbane Was Surprised. Kilbane. evidently, thought that all he had to do was to feint Dundee into leaving an opening and then | whip the right across to the point! of the chin. But whatever his short- 1 comings in other departments of the j boxing game. Dundee has quick eves for menacing rights. Not once but scores of times he converted Kilbane’s best meant efforts into misses. Ij have no doubt that the frequency with which Kilbane’s glove bumped into nothing but thin air had a dis couraging effect upon the Champion. Old fighters used to say that the jar which follows when one s best punch plows atmosphere i= almost as bad as being made the mark for a blow, and such being the case it is very likely that Kilbane’s failure to find the Dundee jaw caused the cham pion to tire earlier than he would have done had he made connections.

Hour.- ■' a. in. to 7 p. in.; Sunday, DR. J. D. HUGHES ’6-- North Broad 81.. Atlanta. Ga. Opposite Third .National Bank. By Ed W Smith C HICAGO, May —Not being swayed by any prejudices of sec tion. color or previous condition, we should figure John Robinson. Bat Nelson’s hustling manager, in a fine position to judge of the merits of a fighter, big or little, and when John says that Luther McCarty is the real thing in the heavyweight division we are inclined to think that John’s opin ion is worth considerably more than mere passing mention. Robinson was in New York the other evening when Luther lambasted Frank Moran, th* Pittsburg heavyweight, for ten sharp rounds, and he got an excellent lire 1 on Luther's ring work. John's opin ion is all the more valuable since he isn't friendly with Billy McCarney, Luther's manager, and hasn't beta for some time. * • • J OHN isn't exactly "all smoked up" over Luther, but he figures him to be easily the beet of the white heavy weights of the day. says his record proves it and sincerely believes that the future of a year or so will dem onstrate it beyond the shadow’ of a doubt. JJs.en to some of John's chatter about the big man from Ne braska: "We had been told for months that Frank Moran was on - of the very best of the latest crop of big fellow c. and the Eastern friends of Dan McKetric-k. who manage** him. believed it. Naturally after being matcher] with McCarty his work was watched with the closest attention. • • • uvrow come* one of the interesting parts of the whole tale. After McCarty had bested Moran, and had done the job up beautifully, as I thought, he didn't gd a bit of credit. He was scolded and nagged for not actually disposing of Moran more de cisively. and that. loo. in the t£be of previous boosts to the effect that Moran was one of the very beJ*t of them all. Not a bit of consistency to that line of work. If Moran was one of the best, then McCarty, after beating bint, must naturally be one of the very best. Catch the line of reasoning? * * * uTT) my way of doping it out. Mc- 1 Carty is a man who needs a lot of actual fighting to keep him fit. He is a lazy big fellow’ and inclined to slow down if he isn't punched con tinually. He couldn’t have been at Lis best -with Moran for that reason, because be had been idle for some little time previous to that encounter. I watched the battle carefully and in common with many Other* at the ringside tried to pick the flaws in this big fellow’s work. ] couldn't find many. Of course lie is still a bit unpolished, but take it from me. he is picking up the insidp stuff rab idly and is getting better every time he works. • • • ii P)UR1NG the tenth round I saw’ him pull a Kid McCoy trick that enlightened me more than anything about him. Joe Jeannette, who was handling Moran, seeing the hopeless ness of the cause, sent Frank out to do and die. Fran 1 ' sailed in mid slammed away like threshing ma chine with both arms going wildly. Luther would have been a cherry ripe sucker to have mixed with him right there. Instead, he stepped in close' and let go with hi- right exactly onto Moran's waist line. The punch didn't travel a foo:, but it sunk in and in stantly Moran was slowed down to a walk. T doubt if a dozen people »n the crowd saw the punch or real ized its importance. But Moran did. It was exactly the right thing at the right time and convinced me fu ... himself in any kind of company." that Luther will be able to care for * • * 1T will not be long now before we A find out what good Tom Jones has been able to accomplish with Jess Willard. Around here we figured that the chief fault with the tal] man from Kansas was* his disinclination to get out in the morning and do road work Jones saw the point instantly and announced that if he got to handling Jess he would «how him the error of his ways. He will get the test the middle of this month, when lie slams into and Is himself slammed into by Gunboa' Smith, x>ne <>f the toughest of the real tough trial horse* of the day. It should be a grand old battle. • JENNINGS HOPES O’LEARY BATS ,400 WITH CARDS ST. LOUIS MO., May Hughie Jennings is hoping tint Charlie O’Leary will bat .400 w ith, the Cardinals this year. "O’Leary is one «»f the finest fel lows I ever met and was one of til* finest players to get along with I eve beard of. He could not succeed very well any more In the American League, but he has every chance in the National, and 1 do not sec anv reason why be should not be a suc cess." It is a matter of record that play ers. after leaving the American League, break into the National and hang up good batting averages. Bat ting was always O’Leary’s wean point, but a change of scenery may help him. Likewise have players from the National appeared in the Ameri can League and surpassed ali previ ous batting performances.

The Reds got an oven break in their series with the Giants, and if the\ | continue to play the same kind of ball they did in Gotham town it'll be only a short time before they climb out of .the National League cellar.

Roberts in the pole vault I cleared the bar at 0 feet (J inches. Meyers, of Tech High, was second, in this event and also beat the for mer record. Meyers made 'J feet 4 and just barely missed the next height. Smith, of G. M. A., and Be dell, of Tech High, were tied with 10 points apiece for third highest point winner. Smith had things his 1 own way in the broad and high jumps. Charlie Allen must have had a grudge against Fowler. In the quar ter mile run Allen was easily leading, but held back toward the finish in order to let his teammate, Lewis, , who was running second, pass him. I This gave Lewis a total of 16 points, just one more than Fowler had. j FATE OF GEORGE STOVALL TO BE SETTLED SUNDAY ST.
