16 4 THE EVENING WORLD, TUESDAY, JULY 26, 1921, ‘FO tp FORMER CHAMPION REGAIN “TITLE IN FIFTEEN-ROUND BOUT —————_-+ Local Boxer, Off Form, Hurts Right Hand in Third Round and Is Thoroughly Beaten by Man From Whom He Won Honors Six Months Ago—Tries Desperately for Knockout and, Failing, Loses $5,000 He Had Wagered Against $25,000. By Vincent Treanor. IKE a good horse off his form, Joe Lynch, the local boxer, didn’t run | his race last night. He lacked his judgment of distance, delibera- tion and everything. As a result he left the ring at Ebbets Field minus the bantamweight title, which he won only last December from Pete Herman of New Orleans. After fifteen rounds of milling with hardly & thrill to any of it, Herman regained his lost honors by outpointing Lynch almost from start to finish. Referee Patsy Haley wasn't called on for &@ decision, the agreement of the two judges, Edward G. Becker and Tommy *ghortell, on Herman making it unnecessary. . Lynch went into the ring a 2% to@———$—____ «1 favorite. It is said a fortune was ‘Yost on him. Eddie Mead, his man- ager, and Joc pooled $5,000 sof thelr own money against $25,000 that he would win by @ knockout. Herman had nine rounds in his favor, four were about evenly con- tested and two, the sixth and eleventh, betonged to Lynch. There ‘was no dissatisfaction expressed even by the rabid Lynch followers over the decision. Lynch himself was satis- fied he had lost, and Herman knew he had won, yet the New Orlcans boy circled around Joe Humphries anxiously until the announcer official- ly proclaimed the news to the crowd. ‘Phen he had a handsbaking bee all around. After the last bell, Lynch went to this corner, pulled his bathrobe over his shoulders, and stood with his hack to the center of the ring await- ing the announcement that spelled the loss of his fistic crown. Then he turned and ran over to Herman and i shook his hand in a congratulatory Sway and patted him on the cheek. Q Joe didn't seem the least bit dis- turbed over the result, nor was any- one else in his corner, They all ap- Speared as if they had expected the #roverse, and after all there was little gccasion for the shedding of tears. Joe was well paid for defending his & honors—$40,000—and there he. stood Synhurt. He'll probably be challeng- Bing Herman to-morrow for a retura i8 match. aw @LYNCH’S RIGHT GOES BACK ON 4 HIM IN THIRD. ig Without wishing to distract from | Herman's victory, it was evident to all who saw the boys battle before, that Lynch didn’t put up his usual (fight, whereas Herman fought 50 per cent. better than he did that “night in the Garden when the West “Side went wild over Lynch's ascen- =sion to the bantam throne. That night Lynch did all the fighting. Last ‘night he let Herman do it. It is pos- “sible that 116 pouncs takes too much out of Lynch. “Lynch hurt his right hand early In ‘the bout, probably in the third round, = when in trying to reach Pete's jaw h “Nanded on his head. After that Joe's right might just as well have been tied. He threatened Herman with it + but rarely let it go, until the eleventh, “when he began taking the chances fhe knew were necessary for him to «win. At that stage he had been so “thoroughly outpointed that only a knockout would have done any good. = After the first round, when Lynch iSwas knocked down by a right tip to $the chin, as he was reaching in with fa left to’ Pete's face, the bout was en- tirely lacking in the thrills one might expect in a championship match. The the fourth, although the punches landed ‘by Lynch seemed the harder. After these two lively periods of | give and take, Herman went into the lead, and he outscored Lynch easily, though he never had him in danger or even hurt. He forced the goin; and landed three punches to Joe's, one, and more than once had Lynch) wild and missing. LYNCH TOOK CHANCES WITH! THE INJURED RIGHT. In the eleventh round Joe started) as if he had been under wraps from| the fifth round. He was taking a| chance with his right. He reached Herman's jaw twice, crowded him| into a corner and then began to pick soft spots on Pete's body with his} dangerous right. Herman behaved well under fire. He covered up| throughout Lynch's spurt and thus the round went to Joe's credit on the score card. Herman came back In the twelfth and left handed Joe until Lynch be- | came excited and fought back wildly, | while Pete stood off and jabbed and hooked like a master. Joe did a lot of theatrical stuff in the thirteenth. He jumped here and theré around the canvas but got nowhere. He tried to get. Herman flustered by these antics, but Pete was a cake of ice through the slashing and swing- ing of Joe's fists, which hit objective spots only grazingly. Lynch knew it must be a K. O. ot nothing for him, but all his abandon in trying to reach a vulnerable spot with his right, bad and all as it was, was wasted effort. The fight was beautifully staged. The ring was pitched at about sec- ond base on the Dodgers’ diamond, and about four million candle power, arc lights blazed down on it. But| for a row of tiny red and white lights in the grandetand, the biz arena, especially the bleachers, made a solid background of black.’ If it weren': for the continuous babble of yoices and shouts resounding for blocks away whenever a solid blow was landed, one might think the place unoccupied except for a dozen rows or so around the ringside which came into the region of light shed from over the ring. In a short but interesting set of preliminaries Babe Herman, a good Uttle featherweight from the coast, stopped Joe Mendell, a lightweight, after two minutes and forty-seven seconds of fighting in the fifth round, Jack Delaney, a middleweight from Bridgeport, stopped Be Colima from California in the seventh, ‘The coast boy displayed the better boxing abil- | ity than his heavier adversary, but | the stiff punching of the rugged New Englander was too much for him. | Several times during the fight he was sent to the floor from hard punches. He arose manfully each time and fought back. In the seventh after Delaney had floored him three suc: cessive times, Patsy Haley inter- | knockdown was comparatively unim- | vened and sent the Coast boy to his “portant, too, for Pete's right landed | © when Joe was off his balance.

Joe was laughing off the chagrin of being “toppled so easily and was enjoying the “lively mixup until Patsy Haley made =them break. ‘After this the bout was marked by “a sameness which at times bordered on the tiresome. Herman, cool and methodical, picked off Lynch every f time Joe started anything, and when he got in close peppered Joe's body so often that the admonition “keep out Sof there” from Lynch's corner at anything that looked like a clinch, To ‘those far y from the ring Lynch may have looked dangerous at all times, especially as he used his “jong lef: in fender fashion, with hia right poised apparently full of knock- out drops. He seemed bent on win- “ning by the K. O. But after the third round there was nothing to that right, Lynch seemed slow in starting. In the second, for instance, Herman hit him half « dozen times in the bod. with his right, which Joe took wil ingly enough, it seemed, while Herman stabbed him with a left to the face and then over went Lynch's Erght.

She is likely to shear some of the tennis prestige from this country next mouth at Forest Hills, She is a nemesis that has caused the United States Texinis Association consider- ble anxiety since she decided to visit these shores; a nemesis that America has called upon all her feminine ten- nis talent to subdue.

With nothing to lose and everything to gain, this mental attitude will give him the advantage over .whoever he meets in the coming tournaments and |should help to™place him on top. If Tilden decides to take a rest, which will be the hardest thing for the big champion to do, with his high- strung temperamental nature, it will undoubtedly enable him to return to the superior ‘form he showed at Forest Hills last year.
