and Tommy sat down hard. That was
the only time during the battle that
either mar lost his feet. Where was
that knockout with which the Chlca-
goan had stopped thirty-two other
fighters?
Terry McGovern. then a member of
the has BEEN class, knocked out
Murphy in one round in the same ring
three years ago. Mcfarland. now In
his prime. was unable to turn that
trick in six rounds. Judging from that,
Packey is-not yet in a class with the
real top-notchers. Joe Cans. who was
at the ringside, just smiled a knowing
smile.
Mcfarland did most Of the forcing,
pushing Murphy to the ropes several
times in every round and very often
started his rushing work with a left
to the face and finishing with a smash
with the right. Some of McFarland's
blows lacked force, and his swings
were sometimes little more than slaps,
but he showed himself to be a much
cleverer boxer than Murphy and he
scored with these slaps and pushes al
most at will.
Murphy's blows had considerable
steam behind them, and when they
landed they hurt. Mcfarland found
this out in the fifth round, when Tom
my smashed him a good one on the
side OF the head and then came at
him SO fast with rights and lefts that
1t took all Packey's blocking skill to
save himself. Murphy got to his face
several times In this round, and Packey
seemed tired when 1t was over. But
youth and condition brought him
around as good as ever for the final
period.
Mcfarland started the blood from
Murphy's nose in the second round and
kept It running to the end of the con-
test. He would sneak in teasing little
left hooks and rlght>hand wallops at
every occasion, and while none of them
were very hard they told In the long
run and disconnected Murphy consider
ably.
For four rounds Tommy tried in vain
to stop some Of these blows with his
In place Of his face, but he
was only partly successful. Whenever
Tommy cut loose to go after Mcfarland
Packey would drop his head very few
and bore in with his face covered. Do
what he could, Murphy did not seem to
be able to solve this defense, probably
because Packey kept him going back
ward by pushing him with his head.
The spectators, while agreeing that it
was a good fight, seemed a little dis
appointed.

NORTH END VS.. ORANGE
BIG GAME.

The North End A. c., of this city.
and the Orange A c. team will play
Saturday afternoon at the Ashland
Oval, in East Orange. The teams are
believed to be evenly matched. Neither
has lost a game in the last two seasons.
and neither has been scored on SO far
this season. There is, of course, a
strong rivalry between the W teams.
and both will do their best to win. and
to effect this they are putting in some
hard practise this week. 1t was
originally planned to have the game
played on the Park A. A Oval, but, as
the grounds are rather small and a
large crowd Is expected, 1t was thought
better to transfer the game to the Ash
land Oval.
