his bout with Abe Attel next Thursday
fought very carefully. He proved too
clever for Langdon at long range The
latter tried I'm vain In the opening rounds
to reach Jimmys face with jabs. while
the latter got his left home in fine style
Langdon, though, was disposed TO be sg-
gressive, and when he did get In close
the mixups were OF n furious nature. At
this game Dangdon held his own with the
Bostonian.
Walsh never forgot his desire 10 aght

was what Iangdon wanted. and until

vigorous as ever.

FAST FIGHT

Howard Smith OF Elizabeth. ~. j., and
Clarence Forbes of Chicago, gave great
exhibition at the stag OF the Navarro A.
G. in American Theatre hall last night,
New York, honors being about even at
the finish.
In the first round Forbes found Smith
often with a left jab, and the round was
more than half over before Howard was
able 10 get In a damaging blow on his
adversary. Howard used a left swing to
the stomach with great effect, and Forbes
was forced to fight hard to keep up with
his man.
The second round was Smiths by a
large margin After one minute OF fight
ing Smith planted a hard swing on
Forbes jaw that staggered the Chi
cagoan, and for time IL looked as n
Clarence would go down for the count
BY stalling he managed to last through
the round
The third round was one OF the fastest
ever fought. Both boys sailed into each
other. and in one OF the mixes Smith re-
ceived a smash on the nose that drew
blood. The boxers disregarded cleverness
in an effort to land a telling blow, and
the milling waxed so furious that the
spectators stood upon their chairs and
cheered like mad. At the bell both boys
were tired.

The defeat OF Mullins was due In a large
measure TO a poor start. He got of hfth,

Pinsticker made all the running and lasted
just long enough TO win.
Mintberia had TO be much the best OF
