HU|HU| WON
FROM SOLDIER
Caught Him Asleep and
Knocked Him
Out.

| It was tame sport on the start at the
| Orpheum last evening, but at the finish
| it developed into a scrap of the first
degree, and a knockout blow was de-
Hvered which will be remembered by
| the victim for many days to come. Sol
der DeLile, a tough little Camp Nc
Kinley fighter, met Bill Huihui,
strapping native, whose place of abode
| was announced as Kakaako. DeLile
thought he was engaging in kissing
match on Makee Island. Huihui
| thought he was there for fighting and
the result was of course a foregone
conclusion for while DeLile was bliss,
fully sleeping and smiling in his
dreams, Huihui gave him straight
right handed punch in the jaw and laid
him on the floor, where he remained
even after Referee Jack Weday had
gone through the formality Of counting
| him out.
The evenings fistic program opened
| with a four-round bout between Jack
son, a tall lanky blond, and Stone, a
smaller man. The little fellow seemed
afraid during the first round and the
| taCHdISeS VI UlOWS were very
! The crowd spurred them on in the Sec
ond. Jackson got in a few nasty ones
| in the third which woke Stone uo.
| Then the latter furnished some lively
| going for a few seconds. When the
gong sounded for the fourth both went
into the ring as if they were going to
each others funerals. They lacked
steam and at the close of the round
the referee handed the decision to
! Jackson.
THE TELEPHONE PUNCHER."
The next bout was between sturdy
soldier and the telephone puncher."
Kid Gelb represented Camp Mckinley
/ and the telephone man was Joe Cas-
| tro, a Guam boy. Lon AgneW was
chosen referee and standing against
the ropes represented various pieces of
statuary during the bout but took
small interest in the event he was
chosen to decide. But not so with the
evenly matched scrappers. From the
time they entered the ring until the end
of the fourth round it was a hard
fought contest. They fought in crouch
/ ing positions and gave each other some
awful punishment The Guam Won
der did little leading but in each mix
delivered two blows to the soldiers
one. Agnew shouted draw at the
conclusion of the go.
i OPENING OF KISSING BOUT.
For the main fight of the evening De-
| Lille strutted into the ring with a put
all-your-money-on- boys express
sion on his face and thought that he
had the fight won then. A moment
later the Huihui cavalcade arrived.
Jimmie Fox, trainer of Huihui, strut
ted around like a young grasshopper
doing its first hopping and made
enough noise each second to scare both
of the principals of the contest out Of
their shoes. Huihui started the first
round with rushing tactics, giving a
mild exhibition of Joe Millett methods.
He kept very close to DeIile and gave
the latter no opportunity to get in
his fancy sparring work. The men had
agreed to break clean and did so dur
ing the first round but Huihui followed
each clinch quickly with a rush and
4 another clinch. The first was an even
I break.
The second round developed into a
kissing match. Once in awhile some
good work was done by both but De-
Lille started the girlishness by kissing
Huihui during clinch. An oscular
sound accompanied the kiss. 1t sound
ed funny and the crowd laughed. Not
to be outdone Huihui kissed the soldi-
er during the next clinch and DESPITE
the pair kept these tactics up to the
end of the round. While angry pro-
/ tests We're being shouted DeLile got
home on Huihui. The latter returned
hard punch and as the gong sound
ed could be heard shouting: How do
you like that?'
By this time Huihui began to appre-
! ciate that DeLile was giving his de-
Tense away by boy play. He kept up
the kissing tactics in the third and in
some bad rushes managed to play
= pretty hard on DeLile's body.
DeLile looked weak at the opening
of the fourth round but continued his
funny side acts and managed to make
the thing an even go.
A KISS AND A KNOCKOUT.
The fifth opened with both men live
ly. DeLile got a kiss to Huihui's face.
One was given smartly in return and
the crowd howled. DeLile still thought
it funny and in being rushed to the
|
joyfully as to which side of Huihui' S
face he would salute with an oscular
demonstration during the next clinch,
but the next clinch never arrived.
While DeLile was dreaming Huihui
found his chance A swing from his
right caught DeLile straight in the
jaw. The latter went down in a lump
and the widest kind of excitement ex-
listed during Weday's count Fox was
excited. He was bowling derision at
=. DeLile but noticing one of Huihui's
seconds climbing into the ring he went
after him with both fists. Huihui stood
at one side of the ring waiting to paste
one on Lon Agnew who was also clam
bering, through the ropes. But We
days and OUT ended the affair. In
/ a moment the ring was filed with a
/ scrambling mass of humanity. Hui
hui picked Fox UP from the floor and
, lifted him high in the air. The winner
was fit for even another scrap during
the night but DeLiIe was groggy and
had to be carried awaU
