AMERICAN STUDENTS GET THE WORST OF
THE CONTESTS WITH ENGLISH
AMATEURS

London, June 3C.-A large company assembled at
the National Sporting Club tonight To witness the
boxing contests held in connection with the corona
tion sporting tournament between Harvard and
Yale students and English amateurs. All the pro-
fessional fighters who took part in the contests
held last week were present tonight. and in some
cases they acted attendants for the American
students All the amateur bouts resulted in VIC
tories for the Englishmen. but the Americans gave
remarkable displays of gameness.
The first contest between heavyweights
Dodge. of Harvard, considerably smaller than
his opponent, F. Parkes of the Polytechnic Boxing
Club. who is the amateur heavyweight champion.
In the OF the second round of the heavy
weight contest both men landed a number of heavy
blows. Dodge the first weaken but he
fought resoute third round. and at times looked
decidedly dangerous. Parkes. however got the
verdict on points, and Dodge vociferously ap-
plauded for his gallant stand.
In the middleweght contest, Wenck of Yale met
r. c. Warnes, of the Lynn Boxing Club, who is
the amateur middleweight champion. The Ameri-
had all the advantage of the rapid exchanges
at the opening. but eventually Warnes acted on
the defensive, and by the aid a number of facial
hits he got lead which enabled him to win COM
fortably. The contest was remarkable for the good
feeling shown by both boxers.
In the lightweight bout. Gates of Columbia was
fully twenty pounds lighter than his opponent A.
Warner of the Highgate Harrers who is the
amateur lightweight champion and much regret
was expressed this difference in weights In
spite Of the disproportion. however. Gates put up
a plucky fight. Just before the end OF the openng
round the American went groggy from a succession
OF heavy blows the head, and Tommy" West
his second, wanted to give in for him. Gates how
ever. insisted upon another attempt, but with no
better result and the referee stopped the fight be-
fore the second round was concluded.
The cosage of the American students was great
ly admired. All the amateur contests limited
to three rounds each.
