' Billy McCann Regains Title | By Technical Sitka Kid Fails fo Answer | Fifth Round Bell After Hard Slashing Despite a ten pound weight mar- «in, former champ Billy McCann, |148, recaptured the middleweight |championship of the Territory last over Lou Lovas, at 158, when the ISitka Kid failed to answer the bell |at the start of the fifth of a sched- | uled ten-round bout. ‘ Like a Jekyll and Hyde young |McCann changed from the ernble,I modest, clean-cut kid he is to a demon octupus in gloves when hel‘ stepped into the ring to answer the bell and régain the coveted cham-! | pionship of the Territory. Only 24 (hours before, McCann knocked out' lan opponent in the second round' of a battle in Sitka, but the former Juneau fighter was at his peak when he rubbed his feet in the resin be- |fore giving the Sitka Kid a pound- ing that took away the title last imghv.. McCann Eager FULLY-FITTED 6.1 McCann, fresh as a daisy regard-| less of the fight the night before, |sprung aggressively out from his jcorner at the first bell last night, ‘.almost swinging himself out of the |ropes in the first frame in eager- ness to connect with the Kid's dim- pled chin. Smoothly Lovas held off the con- {tender with a strong left and a | remarkably effective left and right that soon had McCann’s face beet- red and raw. Both fighters were in the pink with lots of wind and leg work. At the end of the second ound, McCann was marked by the Kid s slashes but still remained calm, into Lovas’s iynamite left that exploded in his frial Rhineland fo Re- |face. The Kid kept aloof and cool, fuge of Nazi Boats (By Associated Press) A mighty force of RAF bombers,' perhaps the biggest yet, in daylight attacks today, slashed back and forth acress ‘northern France after a night raid, the 24th in 26 nights. The RAF bombers battered Nazi too, pedalling away from McCann'’s leathery blitzes and keeping that eternally jabbing left up high. After a cautious period in the first of the second and a siege of fan- Pieasing slugging, McCann came out iof his corner in the first of the third with judges' decisions chalking up ties for both the preceding frames. | Tf McCann had been determined for targets of the industrial Rhi&mndl”‘? first two rounds, he was even to the refuge ports harboring“some of the largest of the German war- ships and the U-boat fleets. Tremendous explosions followed the bombings. i st et s Groves Nears MarkinB.B.

Washington Rainbow Visitors Go Soy!h The nine Washington Rainbow girls who have been. visiting the Juneau assembly since July 1 are leaving today on.the Denali for Ketchikan where they will spend more vicious when the third bell |rang and a 1ipping right to the Kid’s | solar plexus left Louvas staggering and ready for the measure. The fight continued desperately with Louvas’ left drooping now and the ropes on the ring taking as much a beating as the fighters. The ring posts were tottering at the end of the third and the Kid was eager to! return to his corner. | Pushing Kid | Both flailing like windmills, the pair tore back to the fray at the| start of the fourth round, with the | Kid stalling a little, holding on to, McCann, clinching at every oppor- ' tunity, bending over in a crouch that put his head almost to his knees and his cowhide hands to protect him from McCann’s vicious attack. The kid was taking a beating as McCann poured on the punches and the crowd was howling for a knock- out. Hurt badly, but still game, Lovas attempted to hold off the contender, but succeeded only inef- fectively as McCann kept the leath- er bouncing with solid blows. In With Towel When the bell to send the boys out to continue the battle dangled for the fifth, no champ was se2n, ana second Eddie Powers signified to referee George Willey that the kid was throwing in the towel, unable to come out for the remainder of the a few days with- Ketchikan ‘Rain- fizht. bow girls before returning south.

The advertised 20 rounds of pre- iiminaries for the title bout comes close to putting the kibosh on Ju- neau boxing as plans petered, pre- paraiions were found non-existent and only two prelims were found on the card.

MOO0SE ........o...c Douglas l' Playing off the finals for $125 of 4th of July money, the Douglas Islanders landed the purse yesterday afternoon as they gave the Moose the worst whipping seen on the Channel for many a moon in front of a packed stand of fans that saw the Paps make seven errors while the Red Coats chalked up three hits and seven runs, all in the same inning. ‘The Moose pulled their biggest bobble as they lost a chance for first money in a fray that was a farce for the Moose from the time Slugger Joe Snow caused a minor riot when he was called out on sec- ond, to the famous fourth inning when 11 Islanders came up to the bat. The Moagse took $75 for second place in the Fourth non-schedule, non-league play-off, and the Elks, after losing to the Red Coats Thurs- day evening, took $50 for third place.
