The west side boxer fooled Rivers by keeping inside of his reach mos' of the way. It was Duffy's rip-tear- ing assault on Rivers's body that won the battle for lim, Joe didn’t seem to relish the pound- ing he received tn the mid-section, and in the seventh, eighth and ninth rounds he was considerably slowed up. Rivers made a big flash in the tenth, scoring some heavy rights to Duffy's jaw, but when tho final gong sounded Duffy was atill on the job, banging away at the visitor's body. It was a well-contested bout ali the way, Duffy earning the honors because of his great infighting und his aggressiveness, Rivers was wild at times, missing many swings for Dufty’s head. His only effective hit- ting was done at long range, LATEST NEWS FROM LOCAL CLUBS YANKS.

It was like sitting in @ roc! ing cl \ “What do you think of the race? I inquired of this eccentric fellow, who probably knows as much about the Inatde of baseball as anybody tn the country. Larry laughed, “Why, that's a cinch,” he said, “The Glants will walk in, They've got the | best ball club there that I ever saw, and I've piped off a lot of ‘em in my day. I'm glad to eee it, too, You know, I never was sore at MoGraw letting me out.
