Boston had a treat when “Smil- {ng Bill” Papke stopped Johnny Car- Toll !n two rounds and made Frank Mantell quit in a round, Some fighter—this Papke. We'll have a chance to see him In New York when he meets Saflor Burke. After that “Pap” is off for the Coast, where he is going to have all ques-| tions settled with Ketchel. In the| Nght of Papke’s fights of last night | Ketchel's chances don’t look o brass- bound as they did before, It will be | a great fight, this one for the mlddle- | weight championship. Ketchel and| apke are men of the good old time at No soft metal in these boys. As for Papke's New York fight—it isn't a copper-rivetted cinch. Sailor Burke, while he ien’t the gamest fighter In the world, has an awful kick. He dropped Hugo Kelly for a nine second count once. He has dropped a Jot of good men. Burke is particularly good during the first minute of a fight.
