E— A fall from the ring in the fifth round of the fifteen round bout be- tween K. O. Palitz of Hartford and Dave Powers of Malden, Mass., brought the fisht to an abrupt close. = Palitz and Powers up to the time of the fall had been about evenly matched, neither one having much advantage. Palitz led the fighting most of the time and drew first blood with a left jab to the nose in the second round. Powers did _not exert himself much during the first few rounds and was just opening up on the Hartford lad when in the fighting he forced Palitz to the ropes and in a clinch both fight- ers fell through the ropes to the floor. Palitz struck on his head and upon recovering was a bit dazed and weak. A physician who was in the audience examined Palitz and it was deemed advisable to call the bout off. Powers weished in at the Aetna bowling alley at 6 o'clock at 152 with all his clothes on. Allowing about 10 pounds for these, his weight would be about 142, or three pounds less than he had to make. Palitz did wot weigh in. In Powers’ corner was George Rob- inson of Boston, who challenged Sail- or Jim Carroll for a match at any time, anywhere and for anything. Bill Moran was in Palitz's corner. Young Deal Knocks Out Aflen. The ten round bout between Young Deal of New London and Marty Allen of New York went three rounds. Young Deal worked his left jab to the head continually and had Allen groggy at the end of the second. In the third, after two minutes and forty seconds of SCHEDULE FOR 1918| fighting, Young Deal let loose a left Leagues Will Open on April Play 154 Games. hicago, Dec. 14. curtailment of the playing season, no stashing of the player limit nor Hmit- ation of the training season in the ma- Jor leagues next year. ers of the National The club own- and American | Lewis of Springfield was a fast go and Leagues decided at their joint meeting | went the full s here today that there was no cause for to the head, closed in with a right to 16 and|the body and Marty went down for the count.

The National League agreed to the American League pian for the collec- tion of the federal war tax. Tt was de- cided to collect only what the govern- ment imposes —three cents on. bleach- er seats, five cenis on pavilion seats, eight cents on grandstand seats and ten cents on box seats. The league also decidad to collect a ten cent war tax on every free admission.

Winters appeared to be rather slow in taking advantage of his open® ings and in following up his man. The exhibition was a clean one and the fans could not complain as they were used fairly. The unfortunate ending of the main bout was resret- ted by the management as well as the fans, as the bout had all the earmarks of a good go full of action. The hall was packed to capacity. Challenges. Several challenges were issued from the ring. Sailor Wilson challenged Abe, the Newsboy, and Abe accepted the ' challenge. Young Glover of Newark, who is making his home in this city, issued a challenge to all comers. Georse Robinson challenged Sailor Jim_CarrolL The officials of the bouts were Jack Shugrue announcer, Marty Keough, referee, and Jackie Wilson, timer. From the Ringside. Marty Keough looked more as if he wes refereeing a prize waltz than a boxing exhibition. The management of the bout de- serves credit for staging such an ex- cellent card and keeping things or- derly. e DO s L LB Marty ‘Allen was a husky looking little chap when he entered the ring but lack of training seemed to be against him. To many fans it may have looked as if Powers was getting the worst of the battle but to those who know him he was only just getting warmed up. Jackie Wilson who refereed the pre- liminary was on the job every minuts and kept the boys piuggins at it ev- ery inch of the way. It is reported that Young a protegee of Jack Carberry at one time prominent in boxing circles. Lewis is who was Norwich Another bout between Powers and Palitz would draw a good crowd if it should be staged on the winner take all basis. MARKET WAS STRONGER. Many Substantial Recoveries Were Registered During the Session. New York, Dec. 14.—In general, to- day’s stock market registered many substantial recoveries from the acmte depression of the preceding session. The heaviness of some high grade se- curities, including bonds, militated against a general advance until the last hour, when trading became very active, leaders adding one to two points to earlier gains of like extent. There were no new developments to account for the movement. but a more hopeful view was entertained of the railroad situation in its relation to governmental control. The strength of coppers and affiliated shares suggested a satisfactory compromise between broducers and the war board regard- ing price regulation. Industrials were eustained by the support _accorded the favorites, United States Steel reflecting buying of the best character. Steel made an extreme advance of 1 7-8 to 84 1-4, most of which was retained.

Fitz believed his hands were right again and so did Jeffries when they met on July 25 1902. For seven rounds Fitz gave the 220- pound champion the mauling of his career.
