world knocked out Tommy White. the clever
chicago boxer. in the third round at the Seaside
Sportinr Club OF Coney Island last night de-
fectiye electric light caused no end OF trouble.

Tho mana cement was oil at sea and there was

tina lights might 20 out for good. McGovern
hurried the fght 70 definite conclusion. that
vas reached much sooner than the talent had
been led TO expect
White recently fought six rounds with
Mc2oyem In Chicago and on the strength OF that
encounter he was matched 10 90 twenty-five
round, with The champion last night.
White has always been looked upon
IA one OF the most skilful boxers and
ring generals in the profession, and for
that reason It was thought he might be able TO
give McGovern stf argument. But. as tho
dght turned out. he was the easiest kind Of
mark. McGovern was after him from the start.
In the second round White was knocked down
twice and was actually saved by the gong.
he anded few left-hand jabs in Terrys face
and also used his right more frequently than
has been his custom. but his blows were merely
MOSQUITO bites. McGovern paid no attention
to them at all.
When the third round began II could be seen
that " hite's stay In the ring would be short.
Mc(iovern, who was stronger and more
rugged in every way. simply overrowered
his opponent with heavy PUSHES and blows
