Joe Mandot Is All
But Knocked Out in
Go With Red Watson
SUPERIOR, WIS . May 29 — Joe Mftn-
dot, the New Orleans lightweight, was
handed the surprise of his life by Bed
Watson, the California battler. \ last
night, the coast boy winning all the way
in their ten-round scrap and having Joe
all but out at the finish
Watson showed no fear of Mandot’s
blows and gave the Southerner a beat
ing he will remember* for some time
Red was the aggressor throughout the
fight, keeping on top of Mandot in every
round and seldom giving the New Or
leans boy a chance to get set.
Mandot tried his best to keep vvat-
eon off. but the latter would not be de
nied and spent most of his time hit
ting the French baker boy around the
body. Had the fight gone another round
Mandot might have been knocked out

‘ KNOCKOUTS I HAVE SEEN”
NO. 9.
By ED W. SMITH.
G OING back over the long list of
good lightweights that have
flashed by since the great days
of Jack McAuliffe, the first real cham
pion of the division under the Queens-
berry code, I can recall no harder
puncher than a swarthy. little full-
blooded Mexican boy named Aurelia
Herrera, who came out of California
in the late nineties and cut a wide
swath for several years.
Herrera had his good points and
his bad, the latter, unfortunately, out
weighing the others. For instance, he
was a chap w 7 ho was none to© partic
ular about his training hetdos. and as
result frequently was caught entirely
out of shape and beaten by men who
had no license to even match up with
him But he certainly could whale
with-his right hand, and if he could
“take pix” on an opponent the end
generally came quickly.
* * *
T HE Mexican was around Chicago
in 1904 and had several sensa
tional battles in that vicinity, but the
strangest of these easily was his bat
tle with Kid Farmer, a Chicago boy.
Herrera had a tremendous record and
was cordially feared by most of ihe
135-pounders He had beaten suen
men as Tofnmy Cody. George Memsic,
Cyclone Thompson and Eddie Fantry.
and it was hard for him to get
matches.
Nate Lewis now 7 managing Charley
White, had Farmer at the time, and
w 7 hen the latter suggested a match
with the Mexican Lewis very frankly
told Farmer it wouldn’t do at all.
“H^ can lick you sure." Nate said. •
“Nobody can lick me ” was f he
frame retort; so. very much against
Nate’s iudemeht and advice, the con
test was scheduled
Aurelia was a sleepy-looking little
fellow 7 even Funder fire, but a close
look would reveal a whole lot of dan
ger lurking behind those dark eyes
of his. Farmer soon discovered this.
* * *
V\f HEN the bell rang Farmer sailed
into the Mexican ‘ke a trolley
car running amuck. For two min
utes and a half he shot so many lefts
and rights in the direction of 'the
Mexican that it was impossible *o
count them. Meantime the Mex was
merely guarding himself ..nd looking
over the man in front of him Farm
er was making what looked like a
sucker fight. That’s what it proved to
be.
Farmer paused for an instant to get
| a fresh start, and, like,a flash, Her
rera shot out a right that caught
Farmer under the heart. He stiffened
up with a Jerk, and then over went
the right to the jaw. flooring Farmer
cleanly.
| The Chicago bo' 7 took the full count
and arose just as the bell ended the
round. Farmer walked to his corner
and during the minute's rest seemed
to revive nicelv. But there w 7 as a wise
old head handling him—Adam Ryan
He knew all the indications, and Juat
before the second round was to start
he said quietly to Lewis
“Throw in the sponge; it’s all off
with this boy.”
i ...
i TUST then Farmer leaned his h»ad
j .1 back into the angle of t^e ring
and Went to sleep as peacefully a« a
baby micht have. They carried him
out. of the ring and stretched him op
• a door that had been taken from its
hinges.
For exactly one hour Farmer slept
on. Hi* worried handlers called a
doctor, who made a hasty examina
tion and said there was no danger, as
he«rt action was entirely normal
The' 7 didn’t try to waken him at all.
\t the e^d of an hour Farmer opened
hie eyes «nd sat UP.
He stared. around a* the flock of
f r i«rd« that surround** him. rubbed
his t«w reflectively arid then said
“Gee. that was o»-e horrible crack
he gave me. w 7 asn’t it?”

In the seat of your one pair of Palm
Beach pants on a red-hot day.
Louisville's standing in the Ameri
can Association percentage column
doesn't indicate it, nor are big league
managers spending ihelr spare hours
kicking themselves because they
passed up the athletes on the Colonels’
pay roll. But the Kentucky city must
have the best ball club known since
the time the snake assisted Adqm
and Eve in their famous put-out
Else why the dickens is Scott Perry
wearing an Atlanta uniform during
the pastiming period every afternoon
(Sundays excepted, sometimes)? Mr.
Perry was on the Colonels' list of
hired men all of last season. He
wasn’t given enough work to make a
paid-off printer tired. This year he
was allowed to train with the St.
Louis Browns—which Isn’t anything
strenuous in the way of training
Then he wa9 hiked back to Louisville,
where h<b warmed a bench and ate a
few ifitcpls at the ex>enpe of the own*
err o* that clut>. and then he was
shipped to Atlanta.
* * •
S INCE his advent here, though, he
has hardly been idle. He was al
lowed to pitch, and did pitch, about
as soon as the ink dried on his con
tract. Atlanta fans remember that
debut. He cami mighty near to
starting with a no-hit, no-run game
As it was, the heavy hitting Volun
teers were held to a single clean sin
gle On Perry's next start he was
defeated in a ten-inning battle,
though he allowed but five hits in the
regular nine innings. A couple of
errors behind him told the story. And
yesterday he made his third start and
sat Chattanooga down without a run
and with but three hits.
• • •
A LL of which shows that Louisville
has a considerable hurling corps.
American Association teams have
been seen more than once in these
parts, and if they are any faster than
the Southern League organizations
th difference is mighty small. But the
team that can, give up the services of
a pitcher of Perry’s caliber has no
business in the American Association.
It ought Just to organize and then
wait for the big league seasons to end,
then make public their line-up and

the engagement, from an Atlanta
point of view. The Cracker captain
whaled the tar lights out of Mr.
Harding's offerings, w 7 hich should
make him mighty popular in the
Lookout city.
For whis>t, gentle readers, Mr Bis
land could hardly be elected Mayor of
Chattanooga without, a dissenting
vote, all because he grew profane in
the first battle with the Lookouts.
Chattanooga chroniclers of the com
bat declare that Mr. Bisland was au
dibly profane and they scored him se
verely for his uncouth language and
Umpire Williams, at whom the an
athema was directed, for letting him
get away with it

N OW. this is no defense of profani

useless Some have called it silly,
but golfers unanimously dissent in
this opinion Anyhow, it is fbrbidden
by league rules on the ball field, and
in violating* that rule, if none other,
Mr Bisland erred
But if Williams w 7 as working the
same sort of a game in Chattanooga
that he worked in Atlanta on his last
appearance. Bisland might well have
been driven to strong language To
play ball behind such umpiring and
not cups a little bit is as possible as it
is for a hungry man to face free food

rled ma?i with six children to turn

lution for the problem is to furnish
each ball player with a Maxim si

A N interesting study in psychology
is furnished by our friend. Hack
Eibel. There is no more earnestly
ambitious athlete in the Southern
League, hut he w 7 as crossed up by the
author of those excellent copy book
maxims, who wrote “Try, try again.*
Hack has been trying. His worst en
emy—and nobody know 7 * of any-—
could accuse him of not giving hie
beet endeavors. Encouragement Is
said to be a tremendous stimulant for
ball players to do deeds. And Eibel
has had that In huge hunks. But it
doesn’t seem to work in his case,
e e e
YY7 HEN he started slumping the ball
w players began patting him on
the back with predictions that it
would be only a few minutes before
he was pounding the ball to every;
corner of the field. The fans were
with him, almost to a man. In his
darkest hours they would whoop
things up whenever he came to bat.
And if the truth be known, they
overdid the thing.

T HEY bad Eibel trying so hard to
hit that he didn't know whether
he was on a ball field or in an aero- 1 '
plan#-. The harder he tried the worse
he looked. But now there-^ap been a.
transformation In every gatne on thg*
road so far when hostile hoots re
place enthusiastic encomiums, he ha!. -
not only been hitting, but hitting
when hits counted in the run column. -
which Is the only time that a hit is
worth a hang. Perhaps before his
return to Ponce DeLeon, he will have
sufficiently recovered his confidence.,
to disregard the deadly handicap of
having his fellow players and th#
faithful fans «trong In his behalf.
