should have been locked up for gaining
money under false pretenses-
Burns didn't prove that he was a
fghter-he simply proved that the other
man was no fighter. He prevented Hart
from fighting. The contest went the full
twenty rounds and Mr. Hart. of Ken
lucky. did not place one good wallop.
Nothing But CIinches-
Burns had a trick of keeping his fore
arm against Hart-s nose before diving
into a clinch, and he made the ciinches

wrestling match more than scrap with
gloves. At no time was there u good,

Cans Could Whip Both.
To a man outside the ropes, 1T looked
a though Joe Cans could have accom-

In Hart's corner was Tommy Ryan.

Along toward the fifteenth round
Burns seemed to be gaining confidence.
He apparently accepted hints from

time, but IL did not seem TO hurt. He
was so intent on clinging that he did
not put any real force into his blows.
