From the time that Ktechel first came he had, not met with defeat unt! Papke put hin down for the count in the Los Angeles. He had decided, like sv many other victorious fighters, that he undergo the rigorous training necessary to put himself tn condition. Having easy after that, and had made no al- lowance for !mprovement on the part Copyright, rN by The Press Publishing Co, bitter pill for the Michigan boy forsake the gay life if he wished to into prominence In the fistic profession | twelfth round of that terrible battle at was absolutely tnvincible and need not beaten Mapke ‘once he considered him of the Illinois boy. There were also rumors that Ketchel had been hitting the pipe. This, together with his lack of sleep, his craze for automobiling, his craving for adventure, too much l0ok- ing upon the wine when ft was red, and the fact that he had taken off twenty days—so the rumors ible for his poor con- dition and consequent defeat. Tt is curious how these rumors come creeping out after a battle has been fought and decided—never before. How- ever, whatever the cause, It is a fact that Ketchel was not in good shape at the Los Angeles affair, and he then made up his mind to stick as closely as he could in future to the straight and narrow road. Third t ight Demanded, Having lost his championship, Ketche! began to plan to get i back. In spite of the fact that Papke was now the champion, honors were about even bo- tween the Michigander and the IJilinols boy. They had met twice and each had Papke's victory being, however, opinion wi better man, and the fans called loudly for @ third meeting. The men were matohed by Jack Gleason to fight at his Ban Francisco club on the night of Nov. 2, 1908, About a week before the date the match was calied off and the immediately rematched by rival, Jimmy Coffroth, to fight twenty rounds at his Colma arena on Charley PLOOEY THE FAN <a we Tew = [ia Rue Memce ighlers enormous.

This time the men didn't shake hands. They went right at each other lke a pair of bulls, Papke landing the frat blow, a stratsht left to the face. In a clinch he was pushed up against the ropes and landed short right and left on Ketchel’s face. Stanley re- pied with a smashing right to the aw. He followed with uppe the Jaw, and Papke came t back vith the same dose. Ketchel then vught Papke with a terrible punch in the stomach, which hurt the Illinois boy a great deal. Ketchel rained rights and lefts on the face, and Papke was forced to clinch and stall until the round ended in Ketchel's favor, There was some hard ting tn the second round, both men Janding pun- ishing blows. Ketehe! caught Papko again with a hard swing in the stom: a terrible right to Stanley's jaw. The round was slightly in Papke's favor, The third round was nearly even, Papke did most of the rushing tn the early part of the round, but Ketchel squared things with some hard swings to the ribs and the jaw just before the bell sounded. Ketchel didn't look very well and the way he staggered around the ring made his backers @ little nervous. The fourth round was Stanley's, administered the greater punishment, the afternoon of Thanksgiving Day, Nov. 20. The men were to fight for guaranteed, purse of $20,000, of which Papke insisted on getting $12,000 trre- | spective of the outcome, Ketchel, being out for revenge rather than money, was willing to fight Papke on any terms, Although the Illinois boy was loud in hig boasts that he had the Indian sign on Ketohel, he had a great deal of respect for Ketchel’s ability and trained faithfully for the contest. Stanley had profited by his severe lesson and went back into tie mountains, where he put in @ lot of hard work and got in fine condition. ‘This fight was to be for the middle- weight championship of the world, Tc had not been fought for since Dec, 7, 197, when Kid ™ ‘oy knocked out Dan Creedon at Long Island City, The championship of America was, of course, included in the greater title of the world's championship.

Blood Begins to Flow. Up to this time the fight had been comparatively tame, judged by the standard of the Los Angeles battle. The blows that they landed were ter- rible wallops and would have disposed of almost any other middleweight. The contestants were both perfectly willine to mix it and did so, but neither one had scored a knockde or drawn blood.

In most of his former battles Ketchel had paid particula attention to his oppe t's body, battering it until his man was weakened and then shifting his attack to the head, but he was mix- ing things in this fight, although his attention for the most part was cen- |tered on Billy's jaw.
