"The gross re- celpts, including the tax, were $21,646.30. The net receipts. gave the State $1,256.65. All of the eight fighters who battled boxed for a flat guarantee, The sums they received were as follows: Midget Smith, $2,000; Marty Col- lins, $1,000; Charley Beecher, 2,000; Dick Loddman, $1,000; Phil Bloom, $1,000; Jimmy.

But even with his hand in normal condition it is doubtful if could have beaten the pugnacious Je. Cajlins. ‘The judges azreed unanimousty on a draw.

Joe O'Donnell was the opponen: nully scheduled to face the blond-haired little Smith. Collins proved a very alle substi- tute. In fact it is unlikely that the opponent, who was barred be- use he did not procure his boxing license from the State Commission, would have done any better than the east sider. between the Tighters. Collins might be listed very well in the class of foatherweights scaling 1231-2, whue the hard hitting pigmy weighdtt 118 Collins claims he could have made 18, too, had he had time to. train, In the seventh round a wild right swing to the jaw had Smith in a bad y and he held on tightly to save from further punishment. tom | other times during the con- ith used the same holding tac- tics when it was apparent he was in distress, At the olose of the twelfth round, when Joe Humphreys announced that There was a difference in welght d voted in favor of a | Armory, Harlem, last night, draw, the loudest protest that has ever yet greeted a decision in the famous structure broke loose and continued for over fifteen minutes. It appeared to the unbiased ob- server that Collins was the winner by a slight margin at the finish. In another sensational bout Johnny Buff, foremost contender for the fly- Weight title of this country, gave Frankie Daly, the veteran bantam from Staten Island, the most artistic lncing he has yet received in his long as a fighter. ‘Ohe of the gament exhfbitions seen in a local ring was given by Daly In the final round. Buff caught his op- ponent ‘with a solid right to. the jaw in the centre of the ring, Daly re- treated back to the ropes And covered up. Buff, realizing that he had Daly close to a knockout, kept after him. Backed into his own corner with his hands at his sides, bleeding and both eyes badly cut, Buff proceeded to fin- ish him. Daly held and backed around the ring from one rope to an- other tottering like @ drunken sailor, in :Boff's anxiety to get a finishing blow across he lost his only oppor- tunity to score a knockout. In the other two _twelve-round bouts Phil Bloom of Brooklyn was awurded the decisten over Jimmy Kelly, both welterweights, in a very uninteresting scrap, and Little Char- ley Beecher, the classy New York featherweight contender, won eleven out of the twelve rounds in his un- even battle with Dick Loadman of Buffalo.
