and llth rounds Langford got to the
Kangaroo so hard and so often that one
OF the latter's seconds, Blink Mcclockey.
very wisely called halt. throwing up
the sponge at the end Of the l1th round.
Up to the ninth round the Kangaroo
boxed with very fine skill. displaying
more ability than he has at any time
since he started TO box In Boston, and
again his great grit was manifest. But
the superior science OF Langford was
what won him the fight more than any
thing else for many of the Kangaroo $
best punches we're lost on account Of
the clever blocking OF the Cambridge
boxer Langford several times during
the contest whaled Gunther so hard about
the head that the latter was weakened.
In fact in the greater number OF rounds.
Gunther started fresh "a a 2-year-old,
but after being pulled into leads which
allowed IAngford to cross his left and

was only the gong that saved him from
sure defeat in the last two rounds which
the contest went.

self so badly was he beaten. The mem
bers OF the club wanted the bout stopped
then and there. in fact the referee asked
one OF the seconds TO throw the sponge
into the ring, bur another OF the seconds
refused 10 allow him. so Gunther simply
took whaling until the gong ended the
round. During the rest McCloskey mer-
cifully told the referee the bout had gone
far enough and the decision was given
TO the Cambridge boxer
In the preliminaries Tommy English
