page two THE EVENING HERALD, KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON Saturday, January 18, 1980 "I .IN TMD ROALM OF HH PELKEY'S POOR SHOWING 1 S -SUPPT GAHD OakUnder Loaes Match In Fourth for Too Much Holding. Klamath fight fans are till convinced that Willi Feldman la tha bait man of hi weight aver to show hare. Thli it not baaed on hla showing ma da laat nitot ip much as tha (act that Ray Felkey failed to show any aymptoma of a real tighter. Pelkay haa a wallop, U right, but he had so little chance to ties it In the brief time the fight lasted that Willie and the crowd know little ot the danger of It. Pelkey, If he can tight, certainly ' ahowed ao deaire to looaen no last night. Assuming a crouch ing pose as he left his corner, be , maintained that attitude through ' out the three and a halt rounds, taking sever pommeling ot the face ratber than to expose his rather lean middle to the blows Willie constantly rained upon him. He continually went Into a clinch and this practice cost - him what chance he bad to win the tight and cauaed rank disap . polntment among the tana. In stead ot standing up and making ' a tight ot it, be chose to hold Feldman with bis left and pound ' him on the back and neck with bla right. Referee Dick Reed en dearored to stop tbe practice in , a gentlemanly way but Pelkey ignored the commands. Dick should bare sbowed bis authority In a more determined manner and the fight would baTe gone farther. Keldman Willing Feldman showed tbe aame in clination to mix last night that haa made him the favorite ot th fana here, but with Pel key 'a atyle there was little chance to get real fight. Even after the ref eree raised bis band in token of victory, Willie ahowed an eager- ueaa to attack Pelkey and make him come in and tight. Feldman wanted that tight to take with him as an Introduction to tbe (ana in the south and it was keen disappointment to him not to win in tbe regular way. Willie is atlll strong with the tans here but Pelkey will never have an other chance In the local arena Other Bouts High Class From the aemi-wlndup to Lbs curtain raiser, the rest of the ahow was tbe best ut on here this season. Austin Rosander showed decided improvement over bis laat engagement here and was awarded a well-earned decision over Billy Church, in the semi- wlndup. Austin takes less pun ishment no wthan formerly and can be bit! The crafty Billy was put to the test in defensive to save himself from hitting the canvas. Th special six-round event be tween Ted iiiske and Eddie Edel mon waa one ot the best exhibi tions of clever boxing seen bere la many a moon. Miske la a little (aster than Eddie and nses both hands to better advantage. His victory was clean and the decision pleased the crowd. Steamboat Doe "Starr" nteamooat Jackson . made a ' warm place (or himself In the beans of Klamath fana last night and wop a decision over Ted '. "Kid" yeans that fully satisfied - everybody. Never before in ring history bere baa such a first , round bean seen. Evans attacked th veteran battler with a rush that looked like th debt uiKht not last long, but that kind of punlsbment is what "Rowboat ; trains on and as loon as Evans laid down his barrage Jackson - got into action. Jackson has added soma weight and la In tbe "pink." He trains faithfully and vi reaoy ior a naro light. Evan has not been her long enough to get his wind properly . and when be dors. If he should be matched with Steamboat again, Tex will have to give these boys a big black type posi tion oa the window card. The tens will just naturally demand Th scheduled Dyson-Wright match was called oft (or th sim ple reason that Harold . Wright lot married Thursdsy evening and failed to put in an appear ance. It there waa any disap pointment on the part of fana It aoon disappeared when Danny Baa and Slim Rassell, who sub stituted for the match, got into action. It was tight from the word go with these two boys and everybody was pleased when tbe referee called it a draw. With tour such red hot fights preceding tbe main event, It Is little wonder the crowd bas no patlenc with the tactic ot Pel key, who evidently haa little con cern about the boys who furnish th coin he's fighting (or. Pelkey Is scheduled to (lgbt Gene O'Orady at Medford January 23 and many Klamath (an are go ing over to org Gen to knock th Oaklander ont of th ring. Sammy Gordon and Ted Miske are scheduled to box special rent at tha Medford card. Old timers around hart bar consid ered Sammy Id th onc-wa class but It Is said hs atlll bss action, unch and world of confidence. A wall filled house greeted th fighters last night and interest ran high until th farcical main rent got under way. He Knew His Scotch and When! i""! jJ ( N6vn even I f fanning? tv au.f ) yc OEMPSEY " FINDS PRDMOTINGNOT PROFITABLE Al Thinks Babe Is Hoodoo On Links; Goes Single Now By AL DEMAKEK (Former Pitcher N. Y. Giants) Many yarns ot tbe "nine teenth" hoi have become classics but none is any better tban the one accredited to Bob MacDonald, the big Scotch pro. A fellow Scotchman, Jack Bur gess, was pouring one day after a round and remarked to Bob: "Say, 'when.' Bob, "when"." Bob never looked up but an swered: "Always cover th ice, my boy, always cover tbe ice." "I thought I beard y say 'when'," said Jack, looking at his bottle ruefully. "No. moo," replied MacDonald, I never even thocth It!" Good spirits and convivial com pany never seemed to bother tbe great Scotch and English pro's game. I have seen Alec Smith and Ted Ray and Harry Vardoa drink half a pint of good whiskey be fore a round ot golf and then break a course record that bad stood tor years. Losses to Date Amount To $40,000. Lom.ki Feci Bad, Too. CHICAGO. Jan. IS (API Promoter Jack Dempaey and Leo Lomskl, Aberdeen, Wash., light- heavyweight, today were almost convinced that the boxing gam is something to stay out of. The former world heavyweight cbamplon'a sorrow wss caused by th tact that only (.433 specta tors who paid 115. SJ, went to th Coliseum to aee Lomskl and James J. Braddock, the Jersey City puncher, fight. Lomskl UlsapolnteU. Lomskl will never believe be didn't get better than a draw with Braddock. and from their actions when th standoff deci sion was announced, most of ths witnesses agree with the west erner. Although knocked down twice by Braddock's right hand jolts, Lomskl, in th olnlon ot ringside experts, took seven ot tbe 19 rounds, and deserved th deci sion. Th referee and Judges produced all th variety ot opin ion possible, the former, Davy Miller, calling It a draw, one judge voting for Lomskl. and the other casting his ballot for Brad dock. Weather Kept Crowd .Vwav Dempsey. thwarted by sub-aero weather that kept the fan at home listening to th radio ac count ot the fight, was reported to have loat about 311.000 on tbe venture, bringing bis total deficit sine he started offering ooxtng entertainment In Chicago last October, to approximately iiu.uuo.
