 In the second Glover rocked Mad dens head with a terrific right swing and in the fourth knocked the New Yorker down with right swing to the jaw. Madden was on his feet in two seconds and fought viciously to the end of the round.
 In the fifth Madden went at Glover like windmill. forcing his man all over the ring. He played for the body and head and finally got Glover near the ropes in q neutral corner.

 It is figured out that the result of the Burns-Johnson heavyweight championship fight, which will take place in Sydney, Australia, On De- cember 26, will be known late Christmas night and may be published in the New York papers on the morning of December 26. This is due to the difference in time. Burns and Johnson are scheduled to enter the ring at II o'clock in the morning The impression stlll pre- vails here that the fight will be a frameup and that Burns has tied Johnson up to such degree that the worst the former can get is a draw It is just possible, however, ;ha, Johnson may treat Burns to the double cross just as Burns handed it to Jack O'Brien at Los Angeles, for it is figured, that on form, taking weight, height and cleverness into consideration. Johnson is the better man and will not lose a chance t0 win a fortune as champion of the world. Johnson is the frs negro to fight for the title AdviCes from Sydney received here recently show ed that Burns was a slight favorite in the betting.
