Views Fights
By HALE SCARBROUGH
A flashing right cross to the
jaw put an end to last night's
armory main boxing event a
third-round knockout for Ursal
Snapp over Joe Woods.
The finishing blow came mid
way of the third after Snapp had
been given a definite edge in
points in the first and second
rounds. It caught Woods coming
in he never backed up and
landed with a thud on the left
side of the Spokane boxer's jaw.
Woods' feet came up and he
went backward onto the can
vas, out for the full count.
In the previous fighting Woods
had been on the floor three
times and Snapp once. The first
round saw Woods drop to his
knee for a second, then get up
and put Ursal on the canwis for
seven. A moment later Woods
was down for nine at the bell.
The second canto was more of
a defensive fight on .both sides,
but Snapp's reach was coming in
mighty handy. Joe Wood's was
on the floor for a second early in
that heat, but his rushing late in
the round almost pulled that one
out for him.
A virtual capacity crowd at the
armory witnessed the first box
ing card of the new year.
The preliminaries were also
good.
In the welterweight semi
windup Monte Montgomery won
a TKO from Ralph Wciser in the
third, after he had more or less
carried Weiser for two heats.
Beferee Wally Moss at the end of
the second warned both boys to
get in and fight, and Montgom
ery almost made hamburger of
Weiser's visage in the next min
ute of slugging.
Bob Eastman knocked out
tils middleweight opponent.
Glenn O'Neill, in the second
round of a scheduled four
rounder. The firtt stanta was
even, and both boys went out
for murder in the second.
A right hand smash to the head
bounced O'Neill halfway across
the ring. He took the count on
his knees, but wasn't able to get
up.
Eddie Johann. middleweight,
was penalized the las round of
his fight with Melvin Weaver for
holding, but took a unanimous
decision in the brawling. There
were no knockdowns.
In the- opener, lightweight
class. Gene Gist captured the
first two rounds from Bobby
Barney by slugging, and Barnev
was down for six in the second.
Barney came back with renewed
vigor in the third to knock Gist
down three times, once for nine,
but wasn't able to put on the fin
isher. Gist got the last round on
points. - '

Filchock Admits He
Lied About Bribery
NEW YORK, Jan. 8 M') Mayor Wllllnm O'Dwyer gave Half
back Frank Filchock a "clean bill of health" to play In the New
York Giants-Chicago Bears title footbnll gnmo December 15, be
cause the passing ace insisted he had not received a bribe offer,
Yet, court exhibits Indicated that the district attorney's office
had evidence eight hours before the klckoff that Filchock defi
nitely had received an offer of $2500 to throw the game, but was
permitted to play anyway.
This was brought out in general sessions court yesterday
when Assistant District Attorney George Monaglian read Into
the record the signed statement of Alvin J. Purls, self-styled
"big bettor." that he had made'
the fix bid to both Filchock
and Fullback Merle Hapcs at
least five days before the game.
The statement was introduced
in evidence in Paris' trial on
the fix charges shortly before
the state rested Its case. Mona-
ghan said lie personally had
taken the statement from the
slim 28-year-old novelty manu
facturer, and that it was all
signed and delivered at 6:15 a.
m., December 15, the morning
of the game. There were still
eight hours to go before the
2:05 p. m. kickoff, yet no ban
was put on Filchock.
Hap.s. however, was barred
from the tilt. At the time.
National Football League
Commissioner Bert Bell re
vealed that the reason he
permitted Filchock to play
was because the mayor, him
self, after questioning the
halfback privately, suggested
it.
"When we were In the may
ors Gracie mansion tne mgnt
before the game." Bell related,
"Mr. O'Dwyer took Filchock in
to another room alone. They
came out and the mayor put his
arm on Filchock's shoulder and
said he had a clean bill . of
health and suggested that yhe
be allowed to play."
Filchock did admit in his
testimony yesterday thai he
lied to the mayor about not.
having received the bribe bid,
because he feared that if he
admitted it, he would be bench
ed. Both Hapcs and Filchock ad
mitted that Paris had offered
them money to throw the game,
that they both turned the bid
down, but that they continued
to see Paris afterward in spite
of it. Both said they were in
terested in getting jobs with
Paris' novelty manufacturing
concern.
In his statement, Paris relat
ed he made the offer to Hapes
at the Copacabana night club
the night of December 8, and
to Filchock in the Paris office
apartment on West 56th street
on December 10.
