In talking of Kaufman before II

IdSt nalI a dozen rounds or So
In talking Of Kaufman before the
contest, Billy said
This thing of knocking out anna
tours in a punch is all right, as it
shows the young fellow has something
to start with. l want to see how he
acts between rounds. though. You
can get line on a novice when he
comes to his corner after a gruelling
round, and if there are a whole lot of
gruelling rounds the better the oppor-
tunity of noting how stout-hearted he
is"
AS there was no tween rounds"
in the Kaufmann-Foley fight, Billy
will have to await another opportunity
for studying Kaufmann's demeanor
while resting.
Delaney is satified that his new find
is game, however. It was remarked,
in fact, at the recent contest that
Kaufman was as cool as cucumber
while the seasoned fighter, Foley, had
case of nerves. Kaufmann's style
is amateurish. He wastes too much
energy in dancing around. In time,
no doubt, he will copy Fitzsimmons
and Jeffries, and use his feet in a dig
nified manner.
No fault can be found with his fist
Y rk, though. He is as quick as
flash in sending in punches. Referee
Jack WEIGH thinks Kaufman the best
heavyweight that has developed in
years. Il never saw a prettier punch
than the one he tloored Foley with"
said WEIGH. "FOleys head struck the
floor first and then he flattened out"
In, win mi, ~
Great Falls high school Saturday the
football team of the Butte high school
become virtually possessed of the
championship of the state, as they
have now defeated the teasm of the
Livingston, Helena and Great Falls
high schools. The two really impor-
tant games of the season are yet to
be played, however, those with the
Spokane high school and the Thanks
giving day game with the Salt Lake
school in Salt Lake. Should the Butte
lads defeat these teams they will be
the undisputed champions of the
northwest, and that is the title Coach
Bechtel and his players are after.
George Siddons. the former light
weight champion, who spent some
| unfortunate since he took up his res
idence in Butte more than year ago.
He had not been in the big camp
long before he was laid up with q
| severe illness, and on recovering from
that, broke his arm while training
Kid Goodman. Last week, while at
| work in the Minnie Healy mine, he
met with another accident of ser
ious nature, and is again in the hos
pital, his injuries consisting of a
sprained ankle and back He was
caught in fall of ground on the 900
level, and had a very close call. A
few years ago, Siddons was the best
man in his class in the world, and
he has many friends in Lewistown
who will regret to learn of his acct
dent.
| Terry McGovern is training for all
he's worth for his fight with Tom
my Murphy. The insinuations that
the Harlem terror is in the gone yon-
der class" seem to get next to him
and he is determined to show that
| he doesn't deserve the slur. Fight
fans are wondering what show Terry
, will make. Everybody who saw him
| in the ring knows what he was, but
many things have happened since he
introduced the solar system to the
vision of Mr.. Edward HanlOn in four
rounds in Philadelphia about a year
ago. Terry has been i'll and he looks
it.
Dick Lewis, who spent several
months here last year. is back in
Spokane. and last week met Joe Gregg
the Indian, in a preliminary bout and
held his own all right. The prelim
mary is described as having been bet
ter than the main event.
