JIMMY CLABBY SETS SAIL Australian Papers Say McGoorty Was Given Bad Handling by Les Iarcy Before Police Inter fered Wolgast Is Beaten. BY HARRY B. SMITH. SAX FRANCISCO. Sept. 4. Tomor row will see Willie Ritchie off for New Tork on his annual Fall and Winter boxing- campaign. Having returned from two weeks spent in the Coast Range Mountains in Tehama County. Ritchie is feeling fit and ready for anything that may happen. First of all, he has before him a 10-round bat tle on Monday night. October 4, with Toung (Joe) Shugrue. For this scrap Ritchie is to receive a guarantee of $3500, with a privilege of accepting one-third of the gross receipts. The weight condition is to be ar ranged when the Californian reaches New York, but it is likely that 13S pounds at 2 o'clock in the afternoon for a night fight will be acceptable. Shugrue was some pumpkins a few months ago and was reckoned the best of the Eastern lightweights. There after he was attacked by an eye trou ble and only recently was able to get back Mi to harness. This will be his first fight after a long absence from the ring, and it is figured by the ex perts that it should give the Califor nian a decided advantage. When Ritchie went into the moun tains last Fall he took on considerable weight, because he didn't diet. This time he took with him his manager mil trainer, Doc Jeffery. Doc was there especially for the purpose of see ing to it that Ritchie laid off the fat tening foods. He performed his task well, and in consequence Willie, if any thing, took off a few pounds. There is no question but that the outing did him a world of good and that he will be in better shape for his season of work. If Ritchie continues to take good care of himself, there is no reason why he shouldn't last in the boxing game for some years to come. His trips home in the Summer not only tend to give him a vacation, but they keep him out of the public eye in the East, and accordingly the fans do not tire of him, as might otherwise be the case. Willie will take a leisurely trip East this time. He will hop off the train at Salt Lake City for a couple of hours and do a little exercising, and later will go to Glenwood Springs, one of his favorite resorts. Several days will be spent in Chi cago, as Ritchie aims to arrive in New York City just in time to see Gibbons and Packey McFarland go through their paces. It is no secret that Ritchie proposes to go gunning for a long-distance fight with Freddie Welsh. He would like to tangle with the champion of the light weights over a route, as he figures his chances of winning would be mighty good. What Ritchie is looking ahead to is the possibility of a bout in Ha vana. He thinks that a match for th-i lightweight title between the present champion and his immediate predeces sor would draw good money, and he is not averse to doing himself some good. . . Jimmy Clabby passed through San Francisco on Monday of last week bound for Australia, where he has been matched to fight Les Darcy, the fellow who stands out as one of the best of the middleweights in the game today. Clabby divorced himself from Larney Lichtenstein, who acted as his man ager, and is bent on going it alone. He admits that he will have a tough game to play with Darcy, but figures that he can surprise the Australian and that his cleverness will enable him to stand off the man from the Antipodes while he wins on points. ' Incidentally, Jimmy is good and sore at the boxing game in the East. "With these no-decision contests." he says, "you haven't a chance in the world unless you've got a stand-in with the newspapermen or have a popular manager who stands well. That was what beat me out of a lot of decisions and' incidentally a lot of prestige. I am through with the short-round game. Give me 20-round contests, where the referee can give a verdict, and I will take my chances. It is a lot better in the long run." If Clabby can beat Darcy, he is in a position to clean up a lot of money across the Pacific. Should he be beat en right off the jump, he might as well come home in a hurry. Australian papers are to hand con taining full accounts of the fight in which Les Darcy stopped Eddie Mc Goorty in the fifteenth round. The brief caolegram that gave us the early news was rather vague and no one un derstood Just what had happened. The newspaper stories show that Darcy won on his merits. He had too much rug gedness for McGoorty. who was beaten down and knocked down several times at the close, until the authorities took a hand and called a halt. Mciioorty had no excuses to offer, and simply remarked that he had met a stronger man in Darcy and that the Australian was entitled to all the hon ors. The knockout he suffered will hurt McGoorty all over the country from a financial standpoint, and he will dis cover It was a costly trip. He can't come home and pose as .even a near champion of the middleweight division. No, he's nothing but a has-been in his division, and he might as well make up his mind to that point. . . Ad Wolgast was beaten by a new comer and an unknown in the East, ac cording to the disaptches the other night. The same dispatches conveyed the information that Joe Azevedo was a winner in a short-round bout. When the unknowns .can bang the Michigan wildcat around the ring and win just about as they please, it would seem to me, for one, that it's time for Adolphus to call it quits. He's & thrifty German, however, and probably finds it more lucrative to pick up the coin in that fashion than to go to farming, which is the hardest sort of work, you know. Already there is a clamor for Paris Mutuel betting in California, and men of considerable force seem to feel there is a good chance for the Legislature to pass such a measure, with extraordi nary restrictions, of course. The present running horse meeting that is under way at the exposition has proved a complete success, and ac cording to reports is even making a little money for its stockholders. There is betting of the "oral" kind, of course, but it is safeguarded in many a man ner. The bookmakers occupy boxes in the saddling paddock. They will quote you odds if you ask for the same and then nod to some other person who is authorized to hold your coin. They don't hand you any tickets, but will remember who you are. and you will be paid off if your horse wins. Naturally, this keeps down the amount of wagering. The horsemen haven't the opportunity to wager large sums, and the racing is more formfull. In brief, there isn't the occasion for "cheating" that was once the habit. Owners race for the purses and are well contented to receive them. The attendance has been far better than was expected, and it is predicted this is only a forerunner of better times in the racing game. KAYLOR .MAKING RECORD SPOKAXE OI TPIKLDER PASSES KF, WILLIAMS' BATTIG MARK. Ioc Brlnkrr Is Home-Kan Kins of Or ganisation With Mne Snail. Frisk Second With Seven. SPOKANE. Wash., Sept. 4. (Special.) Ted Kaylor. the fleethoofed little Spokane outfielder, is leading the Northwestern League in batting, with a mark of .341. one point better than that of Ken Williams, formerly of Spo kane, now of the Cincinnati Reds. Kay lor has been moving up rapidly the last few weeks and has finally crawled over the high-water mark set by Will iams. Jack Smith, on the other hand, has slumped slightly. Ed Kip.pert is another whose bard clouting lately has seen his name go shooting toward the top In this column. Smith has passed Williams' base stealing total, finally, six weeks after W llliams has become a National leaguer, Jimmy Lewis and Rod Murphv are close on Williams' total of 35 for second honors. Dode Blinker is the home-run king of the organization, with nine four sack swats to his credit. Frisk is sec ond with s:ven. Ira Colwell. whom Bob Brown is lav ing a bard time selling despite his fine record, is leading the Northwestern League pitchers, with 21 wins in 31 games, and Noyes is second, just one game behind, in the same number pitched.
