questionable decision, Eddie Graney
last night declared Jimmy Britt win
nerd over young Corbett" in a fierce
and exciting fight which went the
limit. Unprejudiced sports do not see
1t that way.
1t looked like a good draw and the
winner was certainly severely pun
ished. But it was a fight that was a
fight.
Corbett took the lead in the early
rounds. Furnishing his man heavily
with swings to the body. To the
eighth round it seemed certain that
Corbett would wear his man down.
When everything seemed going
against him Britt's Irish seemed to
wake up, summing up all his speed
and strength he suddenly let go and
the round ended in BIRTHS favor.
It went about this way until the end,

quent bursts of speed. Yet Corbett
seemed always the more effective and
Britt was the worst punished winner
ever seen in local ring. Graney de-
clared that he awarded the decision on
points.
Corbett was terribly disappointed.
1T was robbed" he said, cts case Of
giving it to the local man."
It was without doubt the greatest
fight fought in California. Britt's
ability to assimilate punishment and
his endurance were simply marvellous.
AT no time during the twenty rounds
did Britt break ground. He always
brought fight to Corbett, who was
breaking ground and clinching most Of
the time. Britt was heavily punished,
yet was at all times willing to take
more, and finally outgamed the cham
'pion.
The pace that both men set made
them very tired. However, their con-
dition brought them. after a minutes
respite to the center Of the ring with
renewed vigor. Britt was better at
the outfighting; Corbett superior in
the mitigating. Britt had the best
footwork and the greatest speed. Cor
bett showed himself the cleverer fight
er at times and the heavier hitter.

-, = = -
titiOns. +ttA:a -. So

Preparations are practically COM
plete for the state bowling tournament
which will open at the Cooperative
alleys in this city Monday night. The.
work of preparing the alleys Tor the
event has been in progress for some
for use at noon to-day. Bowlers who
have tried these alleys since they were
put in shape say that they are faster
than when they were first built, and
predict high scores for next week. 81
Elaborate preparations have been
made also for the convenience OF spec
tators. The score boards will be
moved so as to give every spectator in
the hall a good view of every alley
Seats have been provided for about
400. The management announces
that no smoking will be allowed while
tournament games are on, and perfect
order will be maintained.
Bowlers from st. Paul and other
cities are taking advantage of every
opportunity to familiarize themselves
with the alleys. ). The Saltwater rollers
have already played several games at
the cooperative, and a number of
men from that city will be at the hall
Sunday. The Duluth team also will
come to Minneapolis Sunday and put
in that day and Monday practising on
the alleys. - "
In all 365 bowlers will compete for
the prizes. Twenty-Five entries have
been received in the contest for five
man teams. These include teams from
the twin cities, Saltwater, Duluth and
Winona. Sixty-three two-man teams
have entered, and ninety-six individ-
uals. In the tournament held last
year in ST; Paul, twenty-four fve-man
teams, fOrty-four twO-man teams and
sixty-six individuals entered The
prize list this year will be larger than
will get $348, the twenty-six leading
two-man teams 1902, and the thirty
four best single bowlers, 5000. The as
ISOLATION also offers SIS to the bowler
who makes the highest score for a
single game, and $25 to the one who
gets the highest average for nine
games.
The secretary of the American
| Bowling congress has officially noti-
| fed the state association that all rec
ords made at the tournament will be
regarded as authentic. It is probable
that high scores will be recorded.
Such teams as the Tasmos, Turner's,
Tuxedos and Buffaloes of the Mime
| Twentieth Avenues of the City league,
and the Co-operatives and Pillsburys
of the Grain and Flour league are ex-
pected to, record some sensational
marks. Such quintets as the Acmes
Capitols, Doris and others of st. Paul
| will crowd the Minneapolis teams
hard. The Minneapolis teams have
been making great scores, not only. at
the Cooperative alleys but also al
! other halls, and four figure totals have
become so common as no longer to
