Lester Freed recited the toast, "Our

Root Knocks His Man Out.

San Francisco, Jan. 1S.-Jack Root
knocked out George Byers in the ninth
round before the National Athletic club
tonight. Root had ByeTs measured at
the beginning of the fifth round and in
the seventh had him going with his
head and body SWINGS. In this round
Byers went to the floor twice and was
only saved by the gong. Root in the
following round landed when and where
he wanted to. He had Byers on the
ropes the greater part of the round. In
the ninth Root swung on ByerS' body
and Byers went to the floor. He rolled
over helpless and his seconds threw up
the sponge.
The Gibb-Thurston bout was called a
draw at the end of the twentieth round.
