dered resulted from the ring contests
held at Maud junction last night. AL
though considerable excitement en-
sued. the card fell short of previous
meal ticket affairs which have occurred
at the north end arena.
The sudedn termination Of the
Torres-M go provided as much
tumult as the remainder of the card
combined while it lasted. The negro
was too strong for his slender oppo..
nent, and when Burns stopped the
bout little or no objection was entered
by the ringside throng.
With Meeney covering at the ropes
after having taken a count of FIVE.
Burns stepped between the men as
| Torres was proceeding to place the
finishing touches, raising the Ethio-
plans arm. Meeney Immediately en-
tered wild protest that he had been
stalling and appeared wild with rage
at the action of Tommy. There is
small doubt that another blow would
have finished him, and Burns probably
saved him from taking the count of
| ten.
Meeney Protests
Meeney continued his harangue and
would not leave the ring until an Off
Ger called for him to go. The men
| came together in the first round and
Meeney opened by sending a stiff left
to the stomach and a right to the head.
They clinched and Meeney whipped
across left to the head which laid
Torres on his back. The negro waited
until eight had been counted and ap-
parently was experiencing no discom-
fort from the knockdown.
AS he rested on his knees the mus
cles of the black frame grew tense,
and, rising, he flew at Meeney like
mad. He sent right to the face which
surprised the white boy. They mixed
and Torres again sent in right which
put Meeney to the floor, where he re-
mained for five seconds. The dingy
was ready for him, and as Meeney COW
cred near the ropes, slashed vcously.
Meeney appeared helpless and Burns
stopped the bout.
After the decision Burns said:
| 1T looked to me as though Meeney
was all in and my place was to stop
the go. 1 don't want any Neil-Tenny
affairs on my hands,"
The first event of the evening, be-
tween Charles Robinson and Young
McGovern. ended in something near
record time, Burns stopping the go and
| awarding the decision to McGoVern
after he had helped Robinson to his
corner. Robinson suffered considerab BILE
head punishment, and the best he could
do was to rush McGovern across the
| IllS uuIlIlS lHS lllIlc llldI IIlS
affair lasted.
McGovern finally sent in right to
the jaw which put Robinson down four
seconds. He was groggy when he came
up, and light tap had him on the
mat again. Burns assisted him to the
corner and raised McGovern's arm.
The mixing lasted one minute and
| twenty-five seconds.
AtteII Wins
Caesar Attell surprised the wise ones
| by rendering William Locke such a
lacing as rarely falls to the lot of a
ringster and when the Jew boy sent
William down twice in the fourth an
other battle was stopped. Very clever
was Caesar last night. He had evil
! IDENTIFY trained for the first lime since
he has been in Los Angeles, and even
though Locke nearly succeeded in
breaking the pawnbroker's back his
Yiddshness worked left that landed
continuously before Burns called the
| bout off.
By actual count Caesar landed his
| left sixteen times in succession in the
second round, each blow reaching
Locke's sore nose. Willus was be-
wildered and in the third allowed
Caesar to work a threadbare gag that
resulted in his receiving another ter
rife smash on the nasal appendage.
Caesar suddenly stopped and pointed
to a far corner of the house, and as
William followed his gaze the willy Jew
planted a smash which resounded over
the pavilion.
There was blood in Locke's eye as
he came up for the fourth, and he
created yell of encouragement by
wrestling Caesar about the ring. Com
ing out of a clinch Attell caught him
on the point of the jaw and Locke
stayed down while Burns counted
three. Another to the same place as
he came up and Locke went down
again. Burns saw that he was all
in and gave Caesar the decision.
!. Locke hardly landed blow during
the bout and only his strength saved
him from DOING earlier in the fray
The Turk Fields match resulted in
Abdul receiving the decision after six
rounds of slow fighting, in which
Turk did most of the forcing, Fields
showed to advantage only in the fifth
round, when he slashed in with upper
, cuts to the body. Abdul was I'M
: pervious to any blow that Frank was
capable of delivering and during the
major portion of the bout ran away
Tremble Scores
Jim Tremble made short work of a
blonde young man with very fancy
footwork, of the name of Thomas
Ryan, the end coming in the second
