ON ARR i eT Eis al ata THE EVENING WURLD, WEUNSESVDAY, MAX 10, 191%. i Morris-Moran Battle, Which Has Been Postponed Till June 4, Should Prove a Real Old- Fashioned Fight. Copsright, 1917, by The Prom Pybilsuna © (The New * Evening World.) HERE may be a fight when © Morris and Frank Moran m « Monday evening, June 4 battle has been postponed beca. Carl burt his wrist in training, It o hardly be called a boxing mot Carl fs about as skilful as the roe paging hippopotamus. Moran's iden of boxing Is limited to the starting, swinging and landing of his Ann. But if it isn't a fight the wise ones along the line are all wrong. The Wise ones are golng up to the Hae n 5. ©, just to Usten to the crasb when <4Q or 200 pounds of .beof bits the floor boards with a loud thump Some figure that nothing can knock Carl Morris off his big logs, and that Frank Moran'’e “Mary Ann” will simpiy sink into Morris and make no impression, They think, too, that Carl will overbear Moran, wear bim down and go over him like an auto- mobile truck over usH Re Others figure the “Mary Ann” good for a knockout any time It lands on the right spot, and that Morris is so slow Moran won't have any ditficulty in landing it, ORRIS and Moran at this mo- ment rank next to Willard. Both, to be strictly truthful, are so far below the champion in fighting ability that they hardly wmarch in the same army. But they're next below the champion, anyhow, and as the éhampion is so much bet- ter that he can't find any men to give him a fight we might as well look at the second string men and enjoy oui selves whilo wo can, The 15th of No- vember looms chill In the offi Morris ranks closer to Wil . He hasn't been beaten by rd yet. The single time the two mastodons met was advertised as a boxing match and turned out to be & wrestling bout. There were no points scored, Carl recently trimmed red Fulton, Willard’s manager has beon busy for a year informing the public that Fulton was Willard's “logical opponent.’ Naturally, hav- ‘ng whipped Fulton, Morris should be the “logical opponent,” to quote the eforesaid manager. Moran's claim to propinquity to the heavyweight title-holder rests upon the facts that be once fought twenty younds with Jack Johnson and wasn't Isnocked out, and that he fought ten with Willard, with the same ing result. Of course Moran claims that he rly whipped Johnson and would have’ knocked him out in five younds more, and that he “had Wil- lard going” in the seventh round. Maybe Moran even thinks these things are true, He's entitled to his own opinion, It's all his. Nobody who aw the bout ever cut tn to share it, ORRIS and Moran dught to put M up a good, rough fight. Mor- ris has been tn unusually good condition since he trained down fine for Fulton, He has adopted a new style of fighting, just pressing in| hard all the time and punching short for the body. He doesn’t pose with extendeu left arm and try to outbox ‘is man any more. Morris has room for an idea now an@ then, He dis- covered that he wasn't a boxer, to uny particular extent. Bo he deter- amined to become a fighter. He suc- rd than { OMAR KHAYYAN, YORK Toy eh 10 be UCT C. K. G.
