{Lloyd Madden Wins Back the N. W. Lightweight Title Fro | WHIRLWIND MLL | STAGED ON S.A. CARD AT MOORE BY EDWARD HILL N one of the most fiercely contested melees seen in the Seattle four-round game since Willie Hoppe, the Frisco lad, made, his appearance here, Lloyd Madden, local light weight, had enough of an edge last night in his fracas at the Moore theatre with “Muf # Bronson of Portland to wrest 4 the laurel wreath, symbolic of a) the N. W. lightweight cham ' pionship, from the Oregonian's brow Bronson won the title from Madden about six weeks ago Portland. The boys have met three times. Each holds| a decision over the other and the other contest went to a draw. In last night's Madden apparently better of the argument by few pounds in weight. Madden Starts Strong The local boy tore after Bronson with the'first tap of the gong and continued to do so for three rounds, The shifty Oregonian used on Mad- den everything in his bag of tricks He could not stop the formér S. A C. star, however. On the other hand, Madden slugged and jabbed the Beaver state youth, but he also withstood the cannonading and) came back tn the last round, and, {f anything, had a bit the better of the| argument tn this chapter. After the boys got warmed up tn the second round, they went to It hammer and tongs. It has been quite a while, and probably will be Jonger, before such a bout will be een here again Credit fe due the & A. C. and! Matchmaker Pat Scott for the card) Hs* on. It was one of the best-bal- heigl shows seon in Seattle this encounter had the a wv eS we + win’ In the semt-windup Frankie Sul- Itvan, Los Angeles lightweight, and Bade Miller, the Frisco giadiator, stepped four fast frames to @ split verdict. Miller made a good tm- Pression on the fans by hie work agninst the tough nattve son. | “Battling” Haynie, who, Frank) Purcell said, was the coming welter weight champ, lasted just 36 seo ends against Ray Campbell. There was no argument. The saflor boy fust climbed tnto the ring and was carried out. In his dressing room he asked: “He didn’t get me in the first found, aid he?” | Vetro Loves Decision | Write Vetro, the battling repre) sentative of the Teamafere’ union, met Bud Ridley,in a return match and secured a draw for himeelf. The bout was a repetition of the meet-/ tng between these two recently at) Dreamland. They fought a close) contest, with a shade tn Ridley’s favor. Harry Casey, West Seattle welter- weight, made a good tmpreasion on the fans by his winntng of a slam dang affair from Johnny Maloney, Dnt left the ring amid thetr boos and | catcalls when he refused to sh: b ds with Maloney at the end of| vthe melee, and the two started to mix In an extra sesston. Caser pniled a prize bonehead play. He had just made a big hit by his work, and then gummed up the proceeding by his poor sportsman ship. He probably will hear of hii action of last night for some time to| come | Frankie Hulet, the old Multnomah club lightweight, of Portland, made his appearance against Ted Mere-| dith, the battling tar from the U. 8.| S. South Dakota. Both boys showed they are a pair of clever mitt sling-| ers. Their go was declared a draw. | Ad Schacht was the third man in| the ring. Judge gave the decisions | fn all but the last bout, which was decided by the referee alone. The) crowd was larger than at the last 8. A.
