£598588855690 | | | | The mokt unfortunate thing that could have happened in a fight ring anywhere, took place last night in Hartford in the semi-final to the Persson-McCarthy fight when Charles Peguliban, , French hoxer, appearing in his first encounter in this couniry, collapsed, at the ond of the cighth round, fafled to revi n to St. IF and died ther® shortly after 3 o'clock this morning. This is the first time in the ring history of Connecticut as far as is |y known that such an occ \& has | taken place, and speculation will be | rife now as to what its cffect on| boxing will be. fans who witnessed the the nice battle that put up, his death has| come as a sh8ck, and to all othe; will come the with the sudden ending of a clean sportsman and a game fighter. The feeling that comes over enc at the thought of the unfortunate ending of the bout is brought home more forcibly by a vivid remem- brance of the boyish face of Pagu- Jihan. He was just 21 years old in all | the glory of his youth. He ws a pretty picture in the wng, many likening him to Jack Delaney, the champion, because of his cican hit- ting. . To fight the and What his father in far-off Irance must feel on the receipt of thel cablegram announcing the terrible| yews, can only be realized Dby me" parents in this country who during| the war received the vellow #lip| bearing the words, “Killed in ac- tion.” There is another side to the story, | the feelings of Al Frisdman of Bo: ton, Pegulihan’s opponent. To us| who were sitting immediately at the ringside mear the spot where Pegulihan went down the death of the Frenchman is a deep puzzle.’We | saw no blows that seemed destined | 10 cause death. When he went down, | he slid down on the ropes into a sit- | ting position, He did not strike his | head. Yet, {t will be said that the blows that Friedman sent in, caused | his death. | Pegulihan's collapse came so sud- denly it was astounding. He had ap- | peared to he fresh at the beginning | of the cighth round and had just| come out of an exchar and gone against the ropes. He cing |h.«" Iroad tracks in relation to the po- | tion of the ring. Friedman was after him and he delivered thr body blows which wtre not extraor- dinarily hard. | Suddenly, his body wilted. Fried-| man surprised, pped back and| then went after him again. Before | lo could plant a blow on his \m«ly,‘ the Frenchman recled along the | ropes into the other corner and there ‘ started to sag down. | His body hit the ropes and he! landed in a sitting posture. The ref- | eree started to count him out, and, at the count of 10 Pegulihan arose {0 his feet but immediately collapsed to the floor, again landing in a sitting | posture. = | At no time did his head hit the | floor. The first man to reach his side | was Friedman. His handlers came | intosthe ring and started to help him | up. Restoratives were applied but he failed to respond. Then a doctor entered the ring and advised that he | be placed on the floor. Another doctor entered and both began to work on him. He did not respond. National Guardsmen, were | dispatched by Commissioner Thomas Donohue for a stretcher and a call was sent in for the ambulance. He was carried out and sent to St. Irancls’ hospital, and there the end | came shortly after 3 o'clock thic morning. F | Friedman was arrested and will| be held pending the coroner's in- vestigation. Just what the cause.of death was will not be known until the coroner makes his examination. | Whether it was becauso of the blows | Te recelved in the fight or whether it was from some other cause may be determined, but it certainly was the strangest happening we have ever seen. It is unfortunate and sad. His body | sadness that comes | | pinski, 2, * Pac, | but there |was the fourth false alarm in three | da will be sent home to France for burlal, and reports have it that a purse will ‘be collected to be sent back with it. We will gladly do any thing we can to soften the blow that must fall on his dear reMtives across the sea. BOYS' CLUB WINS - IS THIRD GAME (Continued from preceding page) cap.
