BOB HAMILTON ONLY PHILADELPHIA FIGHTER TO WIN IN AMATEUR TOURNAMENT—RENAISSANCE FIVE GETS CHANCE FOR HAMILTON LONE WINNER IN INTER-STATE BOUTS " Philadelphia Lightweight Lives Up to His Reputation— Kelly, Clinch and Columbo Awarded Decisions Over Other Quaker City Scrappers — Joe Zotter Scores Kayo in 45 Seconds—Frank Cugno Chalks Up An- other Win—Plenty of Comedy in Tourney. Bob Hamilton of Philadelphia, considered one of the greatest ama- teur lightweights in the country, was the only member of the Quaker City boxing team of four men to win a bout against the Connecticut fighters at the Tabs' hall last night. The tournament furnished by the Mo- hawk A. C., bristled with action from the start to the finish and the card of bouts was one of the best seen Rere this year. Hamilton, however, by his own admission, met one of the gamest fighters he has ever en- oountered, in his career in Ray Tay- lor of Terryville. Hamilton's speed, punching power and his cleverness, were too much for the blond-thatch- | o4 scrapper from the “sticks.” but despite two knockdowns, one in the first and one in the second round, Taylor was on his fect fighting away at the bell. Hamilton Is a wicked punisher and ® Bard puncher. He puts his body behind every swing and he wastes net & punch in his efforts to send his epponent to the land of dreams. He was billed as & great lightweight and it can safely be said that he ‘was among the best fighters ever | ®een {n action in the amateur tour- saments conducted in this city. Jack Kelly, middleweight cham- ploa of the state, won in three rosnds from Bishop Hart, a choco- 1ate oolored boy from Philadelphia. In the second round, Kelly sent in two pile-driving punches to the pit of Hart's stomach. The last blow | lifted the Philadelphian clear off his | fest and he went down for the count of nine. Gamely he got to his feet, “but he was badly hurt. In the third round, he went down several times from weakness but he got up each time and stood up under terrific pun- ishment until the end. Hart was examined after the fight but no ser- ious vesults were found. Johany Clinch of this city defeat- | o4 Al McGurk of Philadelphia in| three rounds. McGurk showed plenty | of cleverness but he could not take | the lead from the local boy. Clinch's margin was & wide one though Mc- Gurk appeared able to give Johnny a terrific run for the victory. Many of the fans were of the| opinion that Art Nadeau of Phila- delphia had defeated Frank Colom- bo of Windsor Locks in three rounds in thelr meeting in the 139 pound class but a disagreement among the Jjudges rendered the bout a draw. In the fourth round, Nadeau got a cut over his left eyo and his steam was sone and Colombo won hands dowr Joe Zotter scored one of the quis est knockouts on record in this city when he knocked Felix Cormler of Springtield cold as & stone in 45 sec- onds of the first round. A terrific left followed by a harder right,| both of which landed flush on Cor- | mier's jaw, sent the Springfield boy down with a resounding whack. Cor- mier was out for fully 10 minute and & balf hour after the bout was | over, he was still unsteady on his pins. ‘The featurs of the night was the Springfeld at 133 pounds. Tabelleone of this city and George Lupi of Springfield at 133 pounds. Tabellone ‘won the decision in three rounds but 1t was the funniest exhibition ever sean here.

Ray tried desperately to better the record but discovered that in- stead of doing better he was “going | back” finally, not having amassed any money along with his trunkfal of medals, he declded to cash in on what he had left and announced | that he would becoms a money Tun- | ner, The result was, that he never appeared in a professional race be- cause there Was no one to run against. : Ray theorlzad that he could make a lot of money barnstorming over the country, dofeating local celehri- ties much in the same manner that some prize-fighters do. So Ray went to work In a stecl mill in Gary, Ind. Now comes Johnny Behr, the I. A. C. trainer, with tho word that the hard work in tho mills has built up Jolc's strength and there is | possibility that he may be &s good as ever. Johnny admits that it's impossible right now to tell whether Ray can| come-back. *“He has never been far out of condition,” Behr said, “and he'll be ready for indoor running in another month.” Ray docs have one thing in his favor., tition, to come back and expect to cover a mile in less than 4:14. Ray belleves he can make the JONES WILL NOT ATTEND HEETING Army Coach Declines to Reopan Army-Navy Confroversy New York, Jan. 38 (UP)—BIft Jones, coach of the United States military academy football team made public a telegram last night in which Major General E.

It was the play of Fred Jean more than anything else that enabled his mates to get through the powerful New Britain defense while the vet- eran center interrupted the smooth team work of the local forwards, Boucher and Alexander. Weilch and St. Aubin kept going at top speed during the entire game and their work forced Bill Blount to tura In a great exhibition of goa! tending. St. Aubin started the scoring after two and a half minutea of fighting when he took a rebound off Blount's shin pads and scooped jt in.
