ChoyEsl<f.

San Francisco, April 16-Sharkey the
marine managed to last eight rounds with
choylnsh and was given the decision. lie
was frightfully punished by Choylnski.
In the first round Sharkey fouled Choy-
inski and the police stopped the fight for
20 minutes. At the end Of that time Choy-
inski went on with the contest.
choylnski was the aggressor from the
start. choynski reached Sharkey's face
with left and followed It up with hot
left In the neck. which put Sharkey stag
gering against the ropes. Choynski land
ed a left on the jaw and in a mix-up Joe
knocked Sharkey clear through the rooes
and the latter fell on his head on the out
side. Choynski reached the jaw and nose
In quick succession with lefts 1t was at
the close of the first round that Sharkey
fouled Choynski
Sharkey landed several light blows on
Joe's body. but did no harm. Joe beat
him all over the ring and the marine
clinched and fell repeatedly to avoid pun
ishment. Most of choynskPs blows were
left hand jabs and he could not get in
right hand knockout, for which he was
evidently playing In the eighth round
Joe knocked Sharkey down repeatedly
and had him all but out when the call of
time saved the sailor and ended the fight.
