Round Nine-Jeffries came at Corbett
like that of a mad bull. Corbett put left
on the face and avoided a return. JeffrieS
leaned heavily on Corbett in the clinch.
Corbett seemed as strong as ever and
there was long series of clinches. Cor
bett put three rights on the body at close
quarters. He hooked Jeffries on the jaw
three times with left and crossed with
right. He blocked Jeffries' efforts and at
close quarters put three rights on the
body and one on the jaw. He repeatedly
stabbed Jeffries on the mouth with lefts.
Corbetts left cheek showed lump from
one of JeffrieS close-arm blows. Jeffries
had a similar mark. Jeffries hooked left
to the body and the referee had trouble
in separating them. AT the close Corbett
stabbed Jeffries' mouth with his left
three times. but they were weak eff
forts.

and came after his man without hesita-

sent in peculiar right hand half up

They fought carefully to the end. Cor

while Jeffries showed improvement in
speed and cleverness.
Round Three-Both came to the center,
Jeff missing a left and Corbett clinching.
Jeff hooked left to the neck and Corbett
jolted him over the ribs with short right.
Corbett increased in speed somewhat and
had to run to avoid a rush. He turned
quickly and put right over the heart hard.
There was a lot of clinching, neither man
taking a chance in the break. Jeff barely
missed right for Corbett's jaw and rough

hooting from the galleries. Jeff forced the
fighting fiercely. Corbett began using left

a left to the stomach. The blow did not

fight that it was great heavyweight
contest:
"Corbett was very clever, but JEFF
fries was almost equally SO, and show
ed marvellous improvement. He prac-
tically outboxed Corbett during the
fight with the exception of the eighth
and ninth rounds. Every blow that he
landed told, and his superior weight
and strength was bound to win in the
end"
Timekeeper George Harting stated
that the blows that won the fight were
a left to the stomach, followed by a
right to the same place as soon as
Corbett arose to his feet after taking
the count of nine.
ut was the best fight Jeffries ever
made and astonished even those who
had placed implicit faith in his ability
to VIM" said Harting.
During the fight Corbett talked con-
tinuously to Jeffries, and to the referee
made number of facetiAls remarks.
He was game to the end, and when
ever Jeffries landed a blow would
make a testing remark. In the sixth
round, during a clinch, just after JEFF
fries had punished him severely, he
remarked to the referee:
Watch him, Eddie; he's trying TO
knock me out"
He can't knock me out; go ahead
and try it.

PEELED to remark that Mr.. Hickey's
scheme to provide openings in his
schedule for sidetraeked dates is a
clever idea, not. Thursday the Toledo
bunch was in town, ready to mix it
up with the leaders, but the list of
playing dates failed to call for battle.
Yesterday a contest was in order but
with large chunks of sky juice being
dumped down on the northern end Of
the circuit. there was nothing doing.
Tired of feeling lonesome at the ball
park, Dale Gear talked Mr.. Watkins
into carrying yesterdays game ovsr to
Sunday, in the hope that the an
nouncement of a double bill will make
his ticket takers earn their time
checks. This left Louisville and Mil
waukee alone to hold the interest of
the fanatics, and the Colonies, after q
keen struggle, yanked the Cantillon
bunch a few pegs farther south. Fine
business.
This unexpected lay-off gave Middle
Schaefer more time to get acquainted
with his new socks, and Middle has
now practically divorced himself from
the lOck-step habit. In again referring
to Schaefer we feel compelled to break
up the mistaken idea regarding the
handle Middle"
that name by working for many sea-
sons on either side of the middle bag,
but this is a mistake. Schaefer drew
the peculiar handle while in Chicago.
One afternoon he wanted to telephone
to the folks out on Lowe avenue, and
started to call up the family butcher.
Going into the booth Schaefer started
to call central.
"Hello!" called voice.
Hello, yes" called Schaefer.
"Hello!" said the voice again. What

which Is sickness, decay and death.
This is as certain as night follows day.

penalty here on earth, in this life,
sooner or later. Call on me at once.
