GUNBOAT SMITH A
SORRY SEUC OF
WHITE HOPE DAYS
BY H, C. HAMILTON
(United Press Staff Correspondent.)
New York, Dec. 30 Gunboat Smith,
survival of that cim, dark age when
white hopes were abroad in the land,
is through. Don't let anyone say he
isn't. The old ship, battle-scarred in
many an encounter, hooked up a few
night ago with Frank Moran, who has
been through for some time, and he
was hard put to it hold his own.
The gunner, who had beaten Cham
pion Jess Willard, who fought George
Carpentier to a standstill and lost on
a foul, who beat Sam Langford once,
only to lose in another encounter with
the dusky son of swat, has passed
from among the lordly race that once
pried dollars from a suffering public.
There will bo no more mobs at New
York club doors to see the gunner
take his medicine. The mob got plen
ty when it saw thc gunner reeling un
der a bombardment from Noran's
guns.
Frank Moran wr.s handed about as
nifty a trimming as any man should
last summer. Smith once gave Dillon
want to see when he met Jack Dillon
quit an interesting little session. But
Smith looked awfully bad in the ring
with Moran. He gave the impression
of being ready to retire to the farm or
the battleship for the rest of his life.
Tho gunner has been a good old
scow, too. Ho has fought about every
good white heavyweight since the days
of James J. Jeffries, and most of the
time he was on the right side of the
ledger.
It was the merest chance that beat
him out of a crack at Champion Jack
Johnson when he took a smash at
George Carpentier when the idol of
France was down. That really wa
the last good fight he cver took part
in. Since then he has rapidly been
on the skids. The big crash was the
only thing wanting and it came in the
Moran battle.

year it was possible to get almost any

Princeton hnd a good teum, Har
vard had a good team, Cornell was
unbeatable and so was Pittsburg.
Syracuse would clean up everything.
Then the playing got down to the last
convulsions and Brown tipped over
the whole dope of a season. Brown
and Pittsburgh were given even slices
of the honors, only to see little Col

final push down the incline.
Princeton started off by Mating ev
