Mora than 50,000 persons, paying something like $200.- 000, were astonished at the contest they witnessed at the Yankee Stadium last night.

Lven then the ‘hawplon broke from the clinging arms to drive heavily to body and head, and several times the Georglan appeared to be near oblivion. At times after that terrific blow in the fourth ribling mustered a little of his former fire and lashed back at the rugged mauler before him to score a few points. These gave him, in the opinion of critics, just three rounds out of the 15, while two were about on. ut when the final bell rang the from the th was a badly er, booed by the throng for from the same llllililfi A Great Blows Lack Power, Forcing FAIR PLAY.
