Nov. 27.—Fred Fulton, Minnesota heavyweight, won a technical knockout over Gunboat Smith in the seventh round of their scheduled ten round fight here tonight, when Smith’s seconds tossed in a sponge to save hix= from further punishment. In the first two rounds Smith was a willing mixer and landed several tell- ing blows on his opponent’s face and head, while the crowd jeered at Ful- ton’s somewhat awkward swings. Three times in the third round Ful- ton worked his man to the ropes and brought ‘down an avalanche of swings when had the Gunboat groggy when the gong sounded. Smith flard back for a time in the fourth round, hacking away at his op- ponent’s face. Then Fulton, with a left swing to the jaw and a right to the body, sent Smith to the ropes and it looked like the fight was over when suddenly an iron rod broke, letting down_the ropes encircling the ring. The fighters were sent to their corn- ers and for flvé minutes great excite- ment prevailed while trainers and pro- moters tried to make repairs. The round laster but two minutes. For the remainder of the fight Smith hung on and the crowd shouted for action. He was staggering about blindly when the sponge was tossed in. Aetna Bowling League. Giants.

Every football season the question of comparative scores is exhumed and brought forward and made to prove almost anything. Under the system Pédunk college may have a beter team than the rec- ognized champions when 'the season is over regardless of the fact that Podunk has only played one team of any strength and that early in the season. There is a striking example this vear. No. critic would claim that Dart- mouth could win from Pittsbugh, yvet comparative scores would have it that the Green is fully as strong as Glenn ‘Warner’s Panthers. Yet, according to comparative scores the dope would be something like this. ‘W. & J. gave Pittsburgh the hard- est game of the season, holding-them to a 13 to 10 score and almost tying the score by a field goal which failed by inches. The week before W. & J. was defeated by West Virginia 7 to 0, and a week or so before that Dartmouth defeated West Virginia 6 to 2. Anoth- er way of looking at the same situa- tion is that while Dartmouth did not permit West Virginia a tou ‘hfiown. Pittsburgh had nine -points asainst her. by the monntain boss. There are two main reasons why comparative scores are worthless. In the first place some football teams improve faster than others. _Some gain their full strength eariy in the season while others do not. The other Teason, which is most important is that most coaches begin the season by pointing their teams to- ward _one or two important usually late in the season. games, In their the world.
