CANS SAVED BY A FOUL.
Jimmy Britt Had All the Best -
the Fight over the Negro AZ
san Francisco.

San Francisco. Nov. Jimmy Britt.
Of California, lost the lightweight
championship of the world last night
when ne fouled Joe Cans. He had sent
Cans To his knees in the fifth round
and then losing his head gave him
a vicious punch and Referee Graney
promptly awarded the decision TO Cans
on a foul. The same thing happened
In the fourth round. Cans had dropped
TO his knees 10 escape a blow that did
not land. Britt struck at him, but
Graney would not allow the foul. In
the next round. however, Graney
promptly recognized the foul fighting.
II looked almost from the start as IL
il were Britt's fight He actually out
boxed Cans and landed blow after
blow. In the fourth round II was APP
parent that Cans was scared and
barring a foul the fight was Britt's to
a certainty.
While no excuse can be made for
Britt losing his head, II certainly
seemed that Cans invited foul. The
decision was great shock to the big
gest crowd that ever filled the pavil-
ion. but fair-minded men agreed that
Graney's Judgment was just.
