< > SPORTS. ‘Mahony Gets Decision on Break in Mauling Mat DEFEATS SAVOLD INFREAKY CLASH “Drop Kick” Only Counts in, Disqualification of Joe in Tilt With Danno. BY JOHN B.. KELLER. \ T'S all wrong. this whole game of | wrestling. One can kid himself | I into helieving it is all on the level, but he shouldn't after see-| ing ‘Danno O’Mahony, the Irishman, supposedly ruler of the mat world, | get & verdict through disqualification over Joe Savoldi, thought to be the best of the American mat maulers. It's a great sport, no doubt. The public likes to be fooled. The mat maddies thronged 8,000 strong at the ball yard gate last mfght. Yet those who took a soaking in the rain that hastened the staging of the main go ahead of the last two programmed pre- liminary bouts certainly took a licking. If they bring Dapper Danno back after what he did not do to Joe last night they should be ashamed of | themselves, Danno is a nice lad, but | in wrestling terms he hasn't it. O'Mahony Hasn't It. *A S THE grunts and grimaces went, Dapper was lucky to get away| with the bout. This may go harshly with the faithful sons of the ould sod who live | *in Washington. They may feel that because of his headlocks and his arm- | locks the boy out of the Irish Free | States Army should have had the ad- | vantage. s Oddly, this O'Mahony-Savoldi en- | gagement had all the appearances of & fuzzy proposition from the first grapple until Savoldi threw all caution and rules aside and gorgeously “drop kicked” his world-title-claiming op- ponent out of the ring. This did not happen until after 24 minutes of fine showmanship on the mat. O'Mahony. a nice-appearing lad. employed an armlock, a headlock and ' a body scissors that had Savoldi gasp- ing and repeatedly appealing to Ref- eree Sam Segal out of New York. But Segal paid no heed to Savoldi's pro- testations of unnecessary roughing. More than 20 minutes had gone, with Savoldi raising Cain with the referee. Joe insisted that Danno was wrong. He was taking punches in the face, Joe contended. And on the body, too. But Segal couldn't get this. Savoldi Goes Wild. Finally, in exasperation, Savoldi re- eorted to his famed “drop kick.” But unfortunately for him, he did so when O’Mahony was out of the ring. One kick was lunged when Danno had been lurched over the ropes by a head- lock. Danno came back in fine fettle but before he could climb throuzh the cords Savoldi shot the feet across again And again O'Mahony wound up on the ground below the ring. In the meanwhile, Savoldi had - ¢hrown a wicked left at the referee. Down goes Segal. But all this was overlooked as the police jumped into the ring. They must have been Irish police, Any way, Segal called it ©'™Mahony's bout—by disqualification. For best showing. give all credit to | Abe Coleman. He made more grimaces to the minute than any wrestler on record in his early bout with Jack Donovan. And all the faces that Coleman made got a draw. That's wrestling. Mike Mazurki got the better of the argument with Rube Wright. And Gus Sonnenberg, a one-time champ, flopped Ed Meske. Mat Matches By the Associated Press.

Taz thirty-sixth annual tournament i of the American Chess Federa- tion, formerly the Western Chess As- sociation, recently ended at Milwaukee. Thirty -ceded players were engaged, including most of the best-known ex- perts in this country. The players were divided into ihree sections, those with the'highest scores i each section qualifying for the final, The follow- ing 11 qualified for the finals: Reuben Fine, Isaac Kashdan, A. B. Santasiere and A. C. Simonson of New York, F. R. Chevalier and Harold Morton of Boston, W. A. Ruth, Camden, N. J.; 8. D. Pactor, Chicago; A. E. &lo, Mil- waukee, Arthur W. Dake, Portland, Ore., and J, H. Belson, Toronto. These 11 players were to play 10 additional games, all starting from scratch. In the preliminaries, Dake finished with the highest score, 8%:-%%.

He first acquired it at Minneapolis | three years ago, triumphed at Detroit | two years ago after a close race with | Rishevsky, and tied with the same player at Chicago a vear ago. In the preliminaries and finals this year he was undefeated, though four draws were scored against him in the finals. | The game between- Kashdan and | Simonson was not completed unti! the third sitting, when it was drawn. A result was necessary in order to ldeclde the third and fourth prizes. | The adjournment of this game to Au- gust 1 prevented Kashdan from fly- | ing to New York City in time to sail | for Warsaw on August 2. In consequence a sudden change in | the personnel of the team had to be made and Kashdan, who has been | the mainstay of the team in winning | first place in the last two team tour- naments and bringing the cup to this country, was left behind. True, they have obtained a good man in getting Israel Horowitz, but not the equal of Kashdan. Horowitz played on the team at Prague four years ago, with the score of seven wins, one loss and six draws, a splendid standing. Two years ago, in a contest for places on the team, he lost out, A. C. Simonson and R. Fine winning places. Chess fans Simonson did not agree upon a draw, s0 that Kashdan could have sailed with the team.
