Donovan Easily Outpoints Lewis.
NEW YORK. January 30.-But for his
cleverness and experience Willie Lewis,
the local welterweight. would have Jared
much worse than he did in a six-round
| bout with Jun Donovan of England at the
Sharkey Athletic Club last night. There
was no question of the Briton's superior
| ity. for he held the upper hand in every
| round save the third and fifth. In thes1
periods Lewis used his left with good
effect and scored often. The real test
came in the sixth. Donovan. after tiring
| Lewis with well-directed body blows, paid
/ his attention to Lewis face and jaw.
Lewis had to cover up to avoid punish
ment and was hugging at the bell The
prelim,nares were interesting. Tommy
| Sheehan started proceedings by smashing
Jack Gallaghan for the count in the third
round. The blow that dropped Gallaghan
was right to the Jaw. Jack Smith s
punches were too much for Jimmy Kelly
who caught soft spot on the floor in
| the second round and quit. George Duffy
was bested by Griff Jones in contest OF
| four rounds. while the semi -windup of six
rounds resulted in a draw between Willie
Grupp and Dick Miller.
