At the New Polo Club ‘where he always works when in New York—Mike is boxing ten rounds a day at top speed, Out in St. Paul his daily boxing stunt has been ten fast rounds. Mike has been told that Lewis was fast and clever enough to outpoint Willie Ritchie and get away from ‘Willie's determined rushes. He doesn't want Lewis to get away from him. Sv he has figured it all out in the char- acteristic Gibbons way. He believes that Lewis, accustomed to fighting at & clip a little bit faster than that of his opponents, will blow if carried aiong faster still. And Mike believes that he can travel as fast us any fighter living, and then speed up i bit. He has gone through his train- tng with that end in view.

Before his left had stopped, Ahearn’s left waa shooting out to beat it to the mark. Mike whipped a right cross over Ahearn's extended left arm, hit- ting him on the forehead with a punch that shook him. “Aha,” said Mike to himself, “I know what you'll fall for.” Again Mike started a left, and @gain Ahearn’s left snapped out instantly to land first, or, as fight- Jadeipaia, tm New York vs, Chicage (cold) Boston va.
