O'DONNELL BADLY BEATEN.
KID WCoH' PUNCHES HIM OFT IN
SIX ROUNDa

Australian Has No Chance to Win From
tho Very Beginning of the Fight and IL
Made to Look Like = Novice by His
Clever Rival-Record Breaking Crowd.
Steve O'Donnell. boxing Instructor at Har-
ward University, who has always been consld-
ered o master OF pugllistic science, although
never rated a. q nrst-class fighter. was made
to look like an inexperienced novice by Kid
Mccoy at the Broadway A. O. last night The
battle only lasted six rounds. and In that time
o'Donnell took frightful beating. He was
finally knocked into a state OF complete
submission. and whenhe had been counted out
he was unrecognizable Mccoy could probably
have ended the fight in jig time. as he so
clearly outclassed the former Australian that
the latter had no chance to win from the first
sound Of tho gong. McCoy's science was a
revelation to his supposedly clever adversary
and also to the crowd. His !eints alone made
O'Donnell appear like man who had never
had the gloves on before. and whom he landed
those stiff. slashing punches that have almost
invariably drawn blood. the Harvard boxing
instructor was dazed.
Mccoy played with his man almost from the
start. Indeed the clever kid" appeared to be
averse to dealing out too much punish
ment. and whom ODonnell was In the

many times In tho past, 10 that while they do

was not punch that Mccoy put upon
Mcdonnell that didn't take effect. In the
very first round a couple OF seemingly light
taps in the face caused the blood to flow and
