GLEASON REFUSED
To FIGHT WEST

There wasn't enough money in the
house at the keystone A. c. last night
for kid" Gleason, and he refused 10
go in the windup with Billy West.
Harry Gardner was substituted for
Gleason. and. considering the condi-
tions. put up "A good fight against Wost.
The bout went the limit OF sis rounds,
with West doing all the work In the
first two rounds, but Gardner coming
back strong in the final rounds.
Four of the five bouts at the Llama
yunk sporting club last night went the
limit OF six rounds. The only en-
oeption was In the windup, when
Young" Loughrey knocked out Jack
Mcfarland in the fourth round.
The men had mixed II up in lively
fashion In every round, with neither
having much OF an advantage. IN the
fourth round Loughrey caught McFar-
land as he was rushing In with a right
hand swing on the jaw and Jack went
down for the fatal count.
Tho other results were: Jack Topman
and Barney White boxed a draw IN the
semi windup. Young Stevenson defeat
ed Young lIRrrisj Kid Uhler won from
Kid Tracy. and Young Hicks had the
better OF a red-hot 5etto with Young

being knocked out.
Black Choynski Of Yonkers, n. Y

honors for neither at the finish.
Battling Fink and Ace OF Spades
put UP an argument which made up for
the previous disappointment. Fink had
the weight but the colored lad pos
sessed the cleverness and they set a
terrific pace In each OF the six rounds,
with a draw the fnal result.
