Hanee Cle ancio, who died yesterday in Milwaukee after a terrific 10 round bout with Buddy Taylor, Terre Haute, Ind., challenger for the world's bantamweight title, was the third to pass on in that manner. Young Dencio was the first. died after a gruclling fight with ¥ McCarthy in Melbourne, Australia. Previously Dencio collapsed aftor is fight with gene Criqul of Irance, former world's feather- welght ampion, but recovere Then came Pancho Villa, who soar- ed to heighis just beyond the reach e (of his three little brown brothers by winuing the world's fiywelght cham- rionship, only to die too, after a | fight, Tha unusual record of deaths of 3 caused Chica- followers to wonder if there cthing in the tropleal mal up 10 render them unabla to follow {the fast pace set by thelr white fos- men in the roped arena. Certainly the series of deaths without parallel in boxing history, and each of them followed har smashing contests in which, exhaust- is led to the very verge of death, none of th fought Tilipinos gave an inch, but terrifically to the final bell, lor, as in the case of Dencio, until a {hard Iy smash rendered him complete- hors the combat. 8Sencio and Denclo were clean liv- ing vouths, beautifully muscled and apparently in excellent condition when they entered the widely sepa- rated rings for their last fights, Villa, fhe champion, had deviated slightly from the rigorous path of perfect condition, but he had youth, sclence, physique and an amazing energy in his favor when he stepped |into his last ring. He mifght have survived had he obeyed his doctor's orders. Ue wase warned not to fight because of an in- fected faw bone, but persisted and died later of blood poisoning after suffering a terrific pelting about the head. Jimmy McLarnin, a recent vietim of Taylor, was Villa's last op- ponent. Villa, ever a lavish spender, never showed until his last fight the effects of the soft life he found so agree- able after his hard little fists began {to knock down American dollars. He carned thousands in his short, me- teorle career, yet the charity of his friends sent him home to his bride. A fine monument to his prowess (adorns his final resting place In | Manila. It grew from small dona- tions of admirers. Sencio, llkewize survived by a yvoung bride in the islands, hewed |closely to the liner of his chosen carger, and was strictly temparate §n his efzht months in America. He was saving, and his great desire to outshine the Villa sty left him no {time for dissipation.
