DECISIVE ROUND.

change OF rights and lefts followed.

Terry's rushes with straight left jabs.
Suddenly he brought up his left. upper

floor.
McGovern took five seconds OF the
count and came back like wild man
with left and right swings. Science was
thrown 70 the winds and the boys began
slugging.
McGovern was very wild. and they made
half circle OF the ring lighting In this

no guarding.
Suddenly right, swinging uppercut
