FOOL'SH Pex’ Seattle Boy Has Slight | Edge; Jimmy Storey Is Walloped by Californian Frankie Denny Uncorks Wallop That Floors Storey Three Times; Dundee Finishes Fast After Harper Piles Up Lead in Early Rounds; Gillum Wins BY LEO H. LASSEN Using his lightning left with big league effect, Bobby r, Northwest lightweight champion, held a_ slight sh. over Jimmy Dundee, the aggressive little Oakland miller, after six fast rounds of milling at the Crystal Poo! last night. ‘The show was staged by the Elks for the Se- attle Boys’ club and a big crowd of fans sat in on the fistic tourney. The final decision was a draw, with both boys having pienty of supporters, but a draw was the only possible ver- dict as the going was mighty even. The way we saw the rounds last night the first was even, Dundee had a shade in the second, Harper won the thfrd by a mile and had a shade in the fourth and the fifth was even, with Dundee having a slight edge in the final frame. sThe trouble with Harper’s style is that he shoots his left hand in so fast that unless your optics are located within a couple of feet of the ring you don’t see any punch | at all. Dundee, on the other hand, is more of a swinging | ore and his punches can be seen from all parts of the jouse. HARPER FORCES FIGHT Harper was the aggressor last night and kept crowding | Dundee all the way. Harper's big round was: the third, when he hammered Danae | with a volley of lefts to the head that plainly bothered the Southerner, and twice Bob! backed the visitor to the ropes, where he beat him to the punches in the infighting. This was the only round in which either boy had a decided edge. In the final round Dundee tried hard to slip over a big wallop, but it was not forthcoming. Jimmy roughed Har- per around a lot in this frame, but only a couple of hard punches found their mark. | Harper did more fighting last night than he has done) im any bout this season. He can still step out and extend) himself more, and if he does he will find that as an at traction where dollars and cents are figured up he will be more in demand. Seattle fans crave action and Harper _ ave them a better run for their money last night. Frankie Denny, the Oakland middleweight, carried too stiff a wallop for Jimmy Storey and the Seattle boy was on the mat three times in the first two rounds of their oh This was too big an edge for the Seattle boy to over-| come and the visitor was given the verdict. Denny out-| ‘weighed the Seattle boy by many pounds. Storey forced the fighting all of the way and led on its, but Denny cracked him three times during the first | sessions with wild swings on the neck that sent Jimmy | to the floor each time. The visitor was in fine shapé and| @aveled at a fast clip during the bout. Jimmy’s one-two came in effectively in the last two rounds and the boy had a shade in these frames, but he couldn't over-| come the lead the visitor piled up in the early going. BAKER IS GOOD SPRINTER As a fighter, Al Baker, the big colored boy from Phila- was a good punching bag last night. Harry Gillum, ‘the Salt Lake miller, did all of the punching. There wasn’t! any argument at all. The visitor had a snaky left hand that he swiped Harry with on the chops a couple of times) in the first round, but after that the colored boy was on| the run thruout the go. If there hadn’t been any ropes! around the ring the bout would have ended somewhere in| Kent. Coming from aprons Baker sure showed a lot of Quaker qualities last night as far as fighting was concerned. For three rounds “Red” Gage, local lightweight, shaded “Frenchie” Vaise, the Renton fireman, and then he nearly made a fatal mistake by mixing with the Renton fire eater. Vaise had all the best of the going in the final round and evened up the bout. The verdict was a draw. Soldier McCaslin and Patsy Ciacco staged a pretty battle in the opener, the soldier winning. He’s a rugged miller. Patsy was floored twice during the four rounds of wild swinging. 6) Ballot for Seattle Fans Editor's Note—Mark with X one of the following three propositions for Beer voice te the coming heavyweight battle and mail it to the Sports Editor ot The Star.
