From the third round the little Denverite was on the down grade from the relentless body blows showered on him by his opponent. The latter scented victory early in the fight and an intense look blazed in his eves, the only sign of emotion which showed in his otherwise expressionless face.

Time, MISS IVES WINS FIRST GOLF EVENT OF SFEASON Only Four Ladies Hand In Their Cards in Handicap on Presidio Links, Quite a goodly number of ladies was out on the Presidio golf course yesterday morning, but only four handed in their scores in the 13-hole handicap medal play that is the first event of the winter season on the schedule of the Women's Annex of the San Francisco Golf and Country Club. Miss Ives won the prize with a net The detalls are given in the following table: f 1% in his training. He lacked condition, and when opposed to a persistent, dogged fighter like Nelson this was fatal. To show how badiy Corbett was beaten up, it was necessary for him to go to the Emergency Hospital and have three wounds stitched. One was in the back of his head, another over his left eye and the third on his upper Iip. ‘While Corbett was on the down grade for a number of rounds, the turning point in the fight came early in the seventh round. Corbett had not recov- ered from the terrible beating he had received in the previous rounds and re- ceived a crushing right to the jaw. Practically from that time on he hardly knew what he was about. His face was puffed badly and the blood was stream- ing from various wounds and gave him a gory appearance. NELSON PERSISTENT. Nelson kept after him and pressed him about the ring, having him in a groggy condition, in waich he \could not defend himself nor hurt NRlson. When the eighth round opened the\men sparred for a moment for an opening and then Corbett rushed in with his head down. As he started to raise his head Nelson butted him. This pro- duced the severe cut over the eye and for a time Corbett could hardly see for the blinding effects of the blood. Nelson went after him steadily and kept landing both right and lefi to the body and the head. Nelson caught him one right hook to the jaw which seemed to make him desperate, and he swung wildly, only to get three blows in rapid succession tg the head. When the gong sounded the end of the round Corbett staggered to his corner. Nelson dia not show the slightest evidence of fatigue when he went to the center of the ring i the ninth round. Corbett landed a left to the jaw that made no impression on Nelson. The latter came back with a right to the jaw and then fairly rained blows on Corbett. Toward the end of the round the latter was backed up against the ropes and did not have sufficient strength to raise his gloved hands above his waist. The spectators were already commencing to murmur ‘“stop the fight.” ‘When the tentn and what proved to be the last round opened it was ap- parent Corbett had no chance of re- cuperating. Nelson went at him vicious. ly, trying everything to land a decisive blow on the jaw. He tried rights and lefts and had Corbett tottering when Harry Tuthill jumped in the ring and saved the game Denver boy from any further unnecessary punishment. Ref- eree Billy Roche said after the fight gut he was prepared to stop it had not orbett's seconds acknowledged the de- feat of their man. The fight proved a ways than one. The bettors made Cor- bett 8 to 10 choice originally and this price was finally hammered down to 4 to 10. It was expected Corbett would outbox Nelson, but he did not do so at any stage of the game. Corbett tried his old tactics, going in with his in more head down and then wi his hands over his opponent’s As soon as he this, Nelson his body 'The Victor Is Greatly Improved Fighter Over His Last Appearance in the Ring With Eddie Hanlon. - sent a straight right to the jaw and followed it with left swing to the face, making Corbett wince.

Look: My Onc-Horse-Per-Day Wire My one-horse wire is strictly a one-horse-per-day proposition. Daily it names the day's ONE BEST land. Occasionaily it picks a loser, but 20 years’ experience spotting one good bet each day has convinced me that this sort of speculation gets the money on the racetrack when all others fall. For a safe, con- servative méthod of beating the ponies commend yourself to my Omne Horse Daily Special. It's the goods.

In the past Britt has worn down his men with his left to the body, but only the actual con- test with Nelson will develop whether he can find a flaw in the Dane's armor. Nelson’s career in the ring has been meteoric. Up to a year ago he was meeting all comers around Chicago in six-round bouts. The mere matter of weight meant nothing to Nelcon, who did not care how big they were, nor how hard they could hit, so long as he ‘could make a little money for those to whose support he has contributed. He first attracted the attention of fight | promoters in this city by defeating | Spider Welch at Salt Lake. He was then matched with Canole, whom he defeated. He then defeated Eddie Hanlon here, after which he went to Butte and vanquished Herrera.
