The crowd of 25000 roared in amazement as Buddy knocked Joe through the ropes in the first round for the count of four and then roared again when Referee Dono- van disqualified Baer, who refused to come out of his eorner for the seventh round after being knocked down for the -third time in less then two minutes in the sixth, Ancil Hoffman, Baer's manager, claimed the third knockdown came alter the bell sounded and refused to let Baer continue, Louis floored Buddy for the first time for the count of six in the sixth round. Baer got up and was caught by a haymaker right ana dropped tlat on his back near the Bomber’s corner. He rolled over as the ccunt went on and managed to get to his feet as the referee began to call the pumber ten. Donovan waved the contestants together and Louis charged across the ring to the badly hurt Baer ind let another fearful right go as the bell sounded. Buddy went down and his hand- lers rushed out and dragged him to his corner. When the gong sounded to start the seventh round, Hoffman refused to let Buddy go out. d Louis insisted he did not nit Baer after the bell sounded. Louis e entered the ring weighing 201 3/4 pounds, and Baer weighed 237’: pounds. — e, Panama, viewed from the dir, is a veritable blanket of flowers, so brilliant are the - wild flowering trees > Try a classitied ad 1 iie Empire DANCE TONIGHT in the After the Dance DOUGLAS INH for Clubs or Parties LUSCIOUS FRIED CHICKEN AND BROILED STEAKS Will Thrill You!
