Ledoux, the Boxing Chef, Has Too Much Pepper for Reddy. EDOUX—he'll do! I Judging from his performance at the Fairmont last night, elam- dango must have been invented In France. He was full of it. ‘The little French champion has shown ue something. He's the nearest thing to “pernicious activity” seen since Terry MoGovern was a bantam. Yea, I know every aspiring battler !s compared to Terry—but this time the compariaon fits, It was a lucky thing for Battling Re@dy that he had other Bat Nelson characteristics besides the name. Reddy fs @ strong, clever, iieady youngster, with @ marvellous capacity for wallops, He managed to stick out the ten rounds. When the first round started Battling evidently had a notion that he'd slip something over on the French cham- pion, Probably some one had passed on to Mr. Reddy the information that Ledoux means, roughly translating from the French, something soft, He had an} idea that New Polo Club clev nd wallop practiced in many @ hard bout in the Bronx would make the French- man curl up and quit. So he seized the first opening and drove a crashing right ver on the tip of the invader’s chin, That was a fatal mistake. Ledoux, having politely allowed Battling Reddy the first punch, fairly exploded into ac- tion. With a eudden rush he swarmed all over Reddy. Swish! bang! went his Sloves. Reddy, carried off his feet by the fury of the attack, was battered from side to side of the ring. Compelled UP-TO-DATE AND NEWSY __THE EVENING WORLD, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 21, 1912.

He tried to break away—and the speedy sprinter from that gay Par-ee aiwaye caught him in about two jumps. Last, he bent double and blocked with hus hands covering his jaw.

Hoppe had easy going from the start and was #0 far superior to Morningstar that the great crowd in the grand ball- room of the Astor was disappointed, Expecting a close battle they saw a runaway, In justice to the Pittsburgh star, it must be sald that he was “off” his usual wame. He appeared to be nervous and uncertain on his draw shots, and his won. derful line nursing ability did not show during the evening. Morningstar kept on trying right to the finish and went so far as to get a new cue when Hoppe was nearly out. This could not stem the tide and the Pittsburgh man finally ave up good na- turedly after he had made @ hard drive that caused his oppon 8 white ball table. ‘This did not count as a miss or a foul, but when the ball Was spotted he failed on a long two- cushion shot and Hoppe ran out.

His alm was perfect And the carom counted without losing | position, Two shots later, however, the cham- Pion attempted a follow shot all the way ‘ross the table, and missed on account of a bad kiss in the corner where the red bull was wedged in. This was not very costly, as it turned out, for the balls were left so that Morning- star missed and the young wizard then cume back with a run of 7%, which really put him safe, Hoppe might have run more, but on his seventy-fifth shot he attempted a hard threc-cushton, when he could have scored by a compara. tively easy draw, Hy this time, however, Hoppo was performing all kinds of daring feats for the edification of the crowd, and seemed to take a boyish delight in making them gasp. On one of his spectacular sprees with the ivories he made # fancy kiss shot off the side rail with the balls more than a foot apart. The ball that Was bounced off the rail rolled at least elghteen inches before it met the cue ball for the count. This was a “bear,” ‘The old billiard sharks who sat around Geclared “the boy's gone eras Nothing bothered Hoppe, though.

In an attempt at a last stand, Morn fogstar changed his cue in the nine- teenth inning and went after a long run, but {t was futile, as Hoppe finally got the balls and ran out. , 1 ‘Doial, 2 , Nah runis,"42, 8 and Ten-Round Bout Between Heavyweights at Biggest Club in Buffalo.
