ORD CROWD AT Local Lightweight Rivals |WHAT Go 15 Cyclonic Rounds, Dundee Leading on Points ks Led by Wide Margin for First Six Rounds, After Which “Sootch-Wop” Piled Up Score With Left Hooks—Old Arena - Jammed Long Before Star Bout Began—London, Kohler and ing to go along with him, Willie was trying desperately in the fourteenth, He seemed to realize ne had something of a lead to overcome. He started as if to annihilate Dundee and was having the better of it at the bell. Dundee, however, had no notion of surrendering any advantage, and as they stood and traded wallops the crowd Was in an uproar, Jackson's punches were the harder in the four- teenth, when they took to exchanging. It was getting near the end and beth showed a disposition to take chances. PRELIMINARIES WERE GOOD. Wille Spencer and Harry London had the crowd on its feet with thelr rip snorting eight-rounder, which started the evening, They fought at top speed all the way and the deci- sion going to London was well re- ceived. | Willie Kohler of Brooklyn met Wil He Murphy in the second bout. John- ny Reisler was to have fought Kohler, but Joe Humplries told the crowd that Reisler was in no physical con- dition to keep the engagement and unable to pass the doctor's official ox- amination. Kohler knows a bit about boxing, but he is lacking in pug- nacity. Murphy, of the rough, harum scarum type, refused to be subdued by Kohler's snappy left jabs and was always dangerous with his right and left swings. Several times he nearly unbalanced the cleverer Kohler with wallops which dropped from nowhere in_ particular. Kehler landed some very pretty punches on Murphy in the fifth, bu apparently they had no bad effect on the receiver. Kohler outboxed the willing Murphy to the end, although “Murph” was always taking a chance in the hope of dropping his man with a single wallop, Kohler got the dec!- sion. Lilly Glover, the oid time Boston welterweight, a good man in his time, | Jersey City before nearly 95,000 people eclipsed all ring battles during refereed the first two bouts and did the job weil, without ahy unnecessary flourishes. Billy is now boxing tn- structor at West Point. Kid Norfolk and the Jamaica Kid, both colored artists, met in the seml- final. Norfolk weighed 177 3-4 and the Jamaica parson 174. A straight right to the jaw eat the Jamaica Kid down in his own corner early in the open- ing round. Norfolk turned and walked across the ring to his own cor. ner, but the Kid was on his feet at five. When he got the genuine old give and take battlo was resumed. Both landed hard and often, but Nor- folk was the stronger at the bell. . ‘They looked particularly feroctous as they lashed away at each other in the second. Beautifully built, and well muscled, they were more foreboding in appearance than any aimilarly weighted white boxers, and their punches seemed to carry more power. ‘The pace told on them in the fourth, and Norfolk was considerably slowed up. Jamaica seemed to stand the go- ing- better and, taking all Norfolk out, was, if anything, the ag- gressor In the fifth. At this stage Referee Artie McGov: ern seemed to fear that the big col- ored boys were putting something over on him and the crowd. He kept after them with: “Go on and fight. Don't hold your punches. Let ‘em go!" McGovern at first directed his re- marks to Norfolk and then switched his suspicions to Jamaica. The men seemed to be dol the best they could, but they weren't go- The house was jammed when Willi Jackson and Johnny Dundee took their corners, Rickard announced that 14 1-2.

In the face of business depression all sports had @ banner season, both in numbers of contestants and spectators. Crowds werp exceptionally large, especially for amateur games. The sport pendulum pointed strongly toward outdoor sports and the number of play- ers in gamos like tennis and golf can now be numbered by the millions.
