JIMMY HANDLER BESTED
SEVERELY PUNISHED BY TOMMY RY.
ANIN FOUR ROUNDS.
So Weak and GrOggy that the Referee
stopped the Figbt-Rice Out
pointed by Yanger.

KANSAS CITY. Mo-, May 26.-In one
sided contest Tommy Ryan was given the
decision over Jimmy Handler, of New York.
in this city. tonight, in the fourth round
of what was scheduled as a ten-round bout
Ryan's furious onsaughts began in the
second round. when he landed with his
right and left on the jaw and body as he
pleased, and eliminated in the fourth round,
when Handler went down for the count
four times After Handler went down the
fourth time from a right to the jaw the
referee gave Ryan the decision to save the
New Yorker further punishment
From the standpoint of gameness Handler
made a wonderful showing, but I'm other re-
spects he was no match for the local man.
Ryan started out the aggressor, landing
six singing blows on Handlers Jaw and
neck in the first round. In this round
Handler slipped at the same instant that
Ryan caught him on the point of the jaw
with right upper cut, and went to his
knees for six seconds
In the first part of the second round
Handler made his best showing by twice
finding Ryan's jaw with his right and i'm
mediately landing hard with his left on the
kidneys. But in this round Ryan began to
crouch low and indulge in furious fight
ing Handlers few blows seemed to arouse
him TO greater efforts. and he began a series
of rushes, landing on his opponent at will
and with telling effect. and he kept up
this mode of punishment during the re-
mainder of the fight. Handler went to his
corner groggy at the end of the second.
and when he came UP for the third his eyes
looked CLASSY and unnatural. He did not
land blow during this round while Ryan
played with him, but apparently made no
effort to land Knockout blow. At the
outset OF the fourth Ryan landed a hard
right TO the head which sent Handler to
his knees for five seconds Handler strug-
gled to his feet and an instant later went
down for eight seconds from a right TO the
jaw. He was in a pitiful state now, but he
struggled to his feet, only TO be sent down
again by hard left to the jaw He got up
after nine seconds. and when Ryan knocked
decision.

Benny Yangcr Bests Austin Rice.

CHICAGO, May 26.-Benny Yanger out
pointed Austin Rice. of New London. Conn.
in a six-rOund contest here tonight. Rice
put up strong fight and won the applause
of the crowd for his excellent work. but
Yanger was too young and too strong for
him. Yanger took a strong lead in the
first round and drove Rice around the ring
with right drives to the body occasionally
getting in a left hook to the Jaw In the
second Rice was at his best and had the
better of the round. Rice used his left
skillfully and put hangers head back again
and again with straight jabs. The crowd
cheered him frantically, and when he came
out for the third round urged him on with
cheers. He was soon wore down, however
by the pounding that Yanger gave him on
the body. and before the end of the third
round was holding for his life He
fought as strongly as he was able in the
last three rounds of the fight, but Yanger
gained the upper hand steadily. Referee
Siler had great difficulty in keeping the
men apart during the last two rounds be-
cause of Rice's persistent holding The de-
cision in rangers favor was received with
great applause, the crowd also giving
cheers for Rice for his good fight
The winner of the fight tonight is to
meet Terry McGovern provided their man
ayers can come TO an agreement on the
weight question.
