IKE GIBBONS of St. Paul out- pointed Jimmy Clabby of Hammond, Ind., before one of the greatest crowds that ever witnessed @ ring battle in Milwau- kee. It was the most wonderful exhibition of fighting ever seen in this section of the country, and in| defeating Clabby the Phantom showed that he is master of every- thing that goes to make a cham- pion in pugilism. From the first clang of the gong to the final let-up there was action in which brilliant feinting, blocking and head-slipping played a great part, and which drew cheers from the assembled fans. Clabby had an advantage of but a quar of a pound when the m wolghed in, tipping the scales at 153% and Gibbons registering 153 Pounds, Aaide from Gibbo wonderful cleverness, he demonstrated that he was a harder puncher and that he Possessed greater strength than his Hammond rival. There was no o at the ring slde that will not give Clabby credit for cleverness, but last night he opposed a man who had, other advantages which he could not successfully combat. Clabby, like his phantom foe, drew applause from his host of friends in the big crowd, Whatever line of at: tack the Hammond boy may hav mapped out for himself before he en tered the ring is a matter that Jimmy alone knows; but he concentrated his efforts to punching Gibbons on the body, He evidently thought that h could weaken Mike by that method, nd he did aucceed in landing many ‘inging wallops which Gibbons was assimilate witiout showing the battle, Clabby, tearing loose at top apeed in an effort to make up for t ground he had lost, shot bis left with full MOTORBOAT RACE TO FRISCO STARTS OCT. 5.

He stalled for a good part of the remainder of t! round, which enabled the Hammond fighter to gain an even break in the session. Unlike his rival, Gibbons used Clabby's head as the target for his attack, and when his face was puffed and carri cut upper lip to show that the Phi tom's shots had reached the spot for which they were aimed.
