From the first gong these crack box- ers took turns carrying the fight to each other, and when the last bell rang and they shook hands both looked as though they had been through a gruelling contest. This was a return match, O'Dowd having wou a close decision in thelr other mill. | It was only his great work“in the + {seventh round, when he had O'Dowd jon the verge of a knockout, that earned the award for Bartfield, In {nearly all the other rounds the hon- ors were practically even, In the ! |seventh round the Western Irishman was battered all around the ringy: and when the bell came to his redoue he had to be helped to his corner. In the first round O'Dowd started off as though he were going to again whip Bartfield. As soon as the Gol- 4 |dier started being aggressive he turned the tide of battle. So fiercely: did the men fight all the way that O'Dowd left the arena with a badly lout right eye and a broken nose, and | Bartfield’s left optic was damaged. O'Dowd was not bothered in the least by the constant flow of blood as he was at the outset. It was Pe, so near dreamland in the previous session.
