The Filipino received the judges’ decision af- ter a bout that kept the crowd on its toes from start to finish. J Conceding more than four pouhds to his opponent, Villa was extended to tho Mmit by the rugged, hard-hitting New \Englander. Villa out-boxed artin and at times drove his opponent about the ring with the cyclonic force of his attacks, but Martin returmed body blows thav staggered the Filipfno. Both kst up a fast pace in the eighth, Villa had Martin in distress with a ter- riflc onslaught to the head and body. Martin’s best round was the tenth when he drove the little brown man to the ropes with hard smashes to the body. Villa's title was not at stake, Martin welghing 115 1-4 pounds, considerably over the flyweight limit of 112 pounds. Villa tipped the beam at 111 Babe Herman, of California, receiv- ¢d the judges' decision over Hughey Hutchison, of New York, in the 12-round semi-final contest. Herman weighed 12§ 1-2 and Hutchison 128.

Both m’sed freely in the third, Villa sending ) irtin back on his heels once with a sma-hing left heok. Villa hammered Martin about the ring n the fourth, opening a cut on his ri- val's nose, but the Filinino was sent stag- gering back with a left swing that con- nected on his jaw, Martin pummelled away at Vlla's body in the fifth. The aixth was a slam-bang affair, both mix- ing turiously with the Filipino landing effectively with both hands to Martin's head. 3 & Both swung- willy in the seventh but in the seventh but in the eighth Villa apparently had Martin, in distress as he landed severa] smashing left hooks to the head. Martin came back strong, however. at the end of the round and punished Villa severely about the hody. Honors wera about even during a Ilely exchange in the ninth. Martin forced Villa to the defensive with a terrific two-fisted attack in the the tenth. The New Englander landed hard blows to the body and rocked the Fillpino with stiff left jabs Villa out- boxed his opponent in the eleventh and twelfth, neither buxer landing effective- ly in these rounds. Villa smashed both: fists to the heaa in the thirteenth sending. Martin part- 1y through the ropes with a left upper- cut.

Benton, who called on the commissioner yesterday to inquire into his status, was told there was nothing In the commis sioner’s records at this tlme to prevent him from playing organized baseball. The commissioner, however, had start- ed investigating reports that Benton had “fixing” of the 1919 worid's serles and when informed to- tional league had taken steps to dbar Ben- ton as an undesirable, the commissioner probably would have a report before the season opens. President Johnson, of the American lea- gue previously had declared Benton weuld not be permitted to play in his league. He said two players had made affidavitt that Benton had told them he had woa a large sum on the 1919 series having received advance information that the series had been fixed.
