However, when the two boxers did mix things up, it was give and take, with neither one giving much ground. Leach was very cautious, and it was only in the third and tenth rounds that he momentairily put on all steam and went after his opponent. ‘On both th ons it was Plerce's fierce attack which caused Leach to let out.

He evidently takes seriously the story that Mr. Millionaire Plant of New London is going to dig down and help out. In fact there is good enough ground for the belief that some such plan as that is the basis of Mr. O’'Rourke’s theory that the Eastern association is going to start the next season and stay in baseball through the summer.” Now It's Up to Clarkin.

If Clarkin is not bluffing in his threat to withdraw from the Eastern associ- ation then the other magnates will be on hand to talk over the franchise which will belong to the league if Clarkin doesn’t file his $2,000 bond March 15.
