The dramatic finish stunned the 11,000 persons in Cleveland's public hall Monday night. The spectators who paid $50,000 to witness the char- ity fight sponsored by the Celviaend News hardly had settled back in their seats to enjoy the battle before it was over. Charges Out of Cerne: Simms fought a fearless, courage- ous fight before the disastrous punch overtook him. He came charging out of his. corner crouched low, his left hand extended. Simms landed half a dozen blows, first driving lefts to Louis’ body and then shifting to the face. Louls danced away with the 195-pound Cleveland heavyweight pressing after him. Simms suddenly lashed out with another left to the face and a right to the head. Louis shook his head for an instant and then, like a panther, sprung for- ward, He drove his gloved fist to Simms’ jaw and it landed with a thud and with the speed of a bullet. Simms went down flat on his back, his legs and arms in the air. He twisted and struggled on the floor of the ring, trying to rise. Sways to His Feet He drew his legs under him and three times tried to clutch the ropes of the ring to bring himself to his feet. Finally, he caught the middle rope and pulled himself up at the count of eight, 26 seconds after: the) Ander bout started. He was swaying like a drunken man. His eyes were glassy. Quick-thinking Arthur Donovan of New York, the referee, threw his arms around Simms and waved the 2 brown Bomber to his corner as Louis was moving in for the kill. It was the first time Simms had been knocked out in 52 battles over period of five: years. It will go down in the record book as a technical: knockout, for Donovan stopped it because he believed he was. 1 justified. “Let's take a walk,” Simms screamed at Donovan while the ref- eree was shaking the boxer's head, trying. to get the cobwebs out. of it. “T'll go any place you say. How about going up on the roof? Let's take a run up the aisle.” After chasing Jack Trammell, rangy Youngstown, O., Negro heavy- weight, all over the ring for eight rounds, Harry Thomas, the house mover, Eagle Bend, Minn., lost the decision in the semi-final bout.
