| saa — —— UP-TO-DATE AND NEWSY Cross Grows Arm-Weary Trying to Put Brown Away in Terrific Ten-Round Bout at Garden. EACH CROSS beat Knockout L Brown last night at Madison Square Garden—beat him so badly that in the third, fourth, fifth and seventh rounds it looked as if K. 0. would surely be knocked out at last himself. That K. O. weathered the sturm and came through fighting} hard in the last round was due to his marvellous capacity for punish- ment. Cross grew arm-weary in the last two rounds. He had knocked Brown down time and again, roughed im to the floor, hurled him through _ the ropes to land with stunning vio- ‘ence on the edge of the platform outside, had tripped and thrown him, and on a dozen occasions had caught his head in chancery under his left arm and hammered away with the right. He had sent K. O. staggering about the ring, had followed and bammered him furiously until K. O. actually backed away gasping for a respite from the relentloss beating. He had let K. 0. start blows and hurl Bis body in behind them, and then bad beaten him to the punches and Gelivered his own with double force. He had battered the little Dutchman until his features were puffed and Swollen. Still K. O. came back with the same old rushing, slugging attack invariably the same recovery—the @arme rush—the samo flailing arms, And in the end Cross lost heart, con- tented himself with the lead he had earned, and gave up trying for the knockout that had seemed so sure a round or two before, Cross outboxed and outslugged Brown. But he marred his victory by occasional streaks of foul fighting. The inatinct to be tricky and unfair and altogether rotten at times seems to be bred in Cross. There are two times when his Unsportsmaniike instinct crops out. One 4s when he te having the fight dll his wm way. The other is when it's going hard against him. Time and again last Right he caught a strangle hold on Brown's neok with his left arm and beat at bis face with the right until Referee Joh forced him to let go. This was con- @dered legitimate in the old London Prise ring days. It should lead to im- Mediate disqualification if the modern rules are enforced. B’er his forcing K. O. through the ropes and kicking his feet out from under him Cross tried an- ether of his invariable tricks. This was fm the elghth round. Brown had barely Weathered the seventh and was still Gregsy. As they came together Brown tried the unfamillar stunt of trying to Dlock Leachie'’s punches with his arms and gloves instead of his jaw. There Was some fiddling about, then a c'inch, ené@ Cross caught Brown with a heavy right that staggered him a little more. Brown rushed and rwung a left into Cross's body. Leachie circled around, turing his head and talking to the Feferee. Brown followed, with his back toward his own corner, Suddenly Leach stopped, began to grin, dropped his bands and, pointing toward K. 0.'s cor- ner with his right, made a remark to Brown, apparently trying to fool him fmto turning his head to look at his seconds, Brown waa elther too dazod @& too wise or too anxious to fknt to “fall” for the trick. He didn’t turn his head an inch. Cross hooked over a hard Jett, clinched, and punched with his free hand. XK. O. started well, In the firat three or four rounds he did the best fighting he has ever shown around here, He tly and drove a number left hooks into Leachie's Dody. Cross seemed to be afraid of that left. But after a while he timed ft closely and began shooting rights in- age, landing first. Then he developed new scheme, letting Brown lead, twisting away and countering heavily with the left. He had a pecullar knack of making Brown run into this left, 08 every time the tow head flew back with Once Brown whipped his left and Leach flopped to for @ second or #0. It w moment after this that he pushed Brown into a corner and shoved him through the ropes. IN the second round Cross staggered Brown with a clip on the chin, but K, O. evened the score with a bom- bardment of the body. Cross was ‘strong. Brown rushed, and Cross Bwung him off his balance and pushed ‘him down to his knees. * In the third Cross nearly got Brown. ‘He landed a flerce left on the chin that went him tottering back to the rop half way across the ring, followed and deat him about with lefts and rights until Brown, bewildered and all but in, made a blind dive and, seizing Cross bout the waist FY avma, held on THE EVENING WORLD, TUESDAY, BEST SPORTING PAGE IN NEW YORK JUNE 4, 1912.

LONDON, June 4—A combination ef bad play and 1I1 luck completely upset all forecasts of Fred Herreshoff's chances of winning the British amateur wolf championship at Westward Ho and put the American out of the contest im his first game to-day. D. A. M. Brown, the Isle of Wight player, beat him by two up and one to ploy. Herreshoff, who was confidently ex+ ected to win, appeared nervous and completely off the game. He got in the ditch at the first hole and at the turn was one down. At the eleventh hole, where Brown was three up, Here reshoff sliced and got into the rushes vay but at the twelfth tole was only wo down. At the thirteenth, however, rig American bunkered again thre? down. He won the fourteenth, but was able only to halve the next three.
