the handicap and had Mike going in the
seventh and again in the 10th round.
The pace was very hot from start to
finish. Jim Donovan is said to be thu
champion of the 150-pound class in his
native country, and certainly proved his
right to consideration in the United
States. He has been appearing III four
round bouts in New York City and has
more than held his own. He was given
the decision at the end of the 10th round.
Young Ouillette and Young Cote put up
six rounds of fast boxing, with honors
even throughout. The men were SO even
" matched that no decision was given.
The other preliminary was between two
artillerymen from the fort, O'Rrien and
Duffy. 1t only went three rounds, when
O'Brien was given the decision. He had
clear advantage from the start al
though he was Is pounds lighter than the
