MURPHY DEFEATS
HYLAND ON POINTS

PHILADELPHIA, September 12-Tommy
in a six-round bout last night at the Ma
led all the way. but didn't have the power
to score a knockout.
1t was another display in which the fight
er met the finished boxer. In this exhibit
ton the distance favored Murphy. Hyland
was just as willing when the sixth round
was under way he was when Referee
Jack Michigan brought the men to the
center of the ring at the beginning. Muir
ply, elusive but never shrinking. found his
cleverneSS a valuable asset. When Hyland
had been pecked until the blood streamed
from his nose and mouth. the delegation of
New Workers. making up the biggest por-
ton of the crowd of 5000 called for Muir
ply to finish his opponent. Tommys rapid
tattoo work on Hyland's Jaw aroused the
Californian only to the point of settling
himself firmly on the floor and wading in.
In the first round Murphy began business
without bordering over the problem. Be
fore he had scanned Hyland from head to
toe Tommy had rushed the Californian and
planted left and right jolts on Fighting
Dicks Jaw. The second round was nearly
even. When Murphy slipped and fell the
crowd accented it as evidence of Hyland's
power, but Tommy bounded to his feet at
once and bored in.
The third round was the gem of tho
show. Murphy met Hyland in the center
of the ring. both rushing fisrcely. Three
left-hand swings landed on Hyand's jaw
and the Californian was turned half around
by the fearful battering. But he came for
ward and received more short-range
thumps without giving Murphy any sub
stantial receipt. Hyland was swept to the
ropes by the fury of Murphy's series of
left and right chops. While dangling on
the ropes Hyland exposed his chin to the
Harlemite's full battery. but Tommy pep
pered away in vain.
Hyland walked into Murphy's left in the
fourth round and Tommy continued to in
crease his lead. In the fifth Murphy car
ried the Pacific coast fighter along so fast
that Hyland was forced to attempt defen-
sive tactics instead Of continuing his saw
age attack. But when the sixth and last
round was called Fighting Dick was there,
blood-Stained and shaky -kneed, but full of
humping intentions. Murphy tried to box
and took no chances of losing the decided
advantage he had gained. but Hyland
wanted only the slam-bang style. and he
insisted upon having it. Murphy used his
left clevery. but could not make Hyland
retreat. Dick appeared better the further
he went and there didn't seem to be
chance of Murphy scoring a knockout at
any distance

that most of the pugilists, from Fftzsim-
