BRITT AND NELSON ON FEET AT FINISH

placed his hand against his opponents,
thinking probably that Jimmie was
about to fall.
1t seemed as though Nelson spent his
best efforts in the sixth. He was not
as savage in the seventh, although
Britt, who had not quite thoroughly
recovered from the beating of the
previous round, was none too strong on
his legs, nor yet so anxious to lash out
with the swapping left-handers he used
in the earlier rounds.
After the seventh round Nelson slow
ed up to some extent, just as he did in
the last fight with Britt at the Audi
forum at San Francisco. Britt, on the
other hand, recovered some of his vim,
although there was never a time last
night when he seemd to possess a
punch strong enough to stagger his OPP
ponent, let alone send him to the floor.
During the remaining rounds Britt
kept improving. Nelson. while he was
just as eager to press his opponent,
couldn't find BIRTHS ribs SO readily and
Bal struck so short with the majority
of his leads for the face that it was
laughable to watch him. Nelson fought
like a man who was bent upon scoring
a knockout. Britt, or the other hand,
was determined to make a stand-away
battle and rely upon cleverness to gain
him the greater number of credits.
There was d great deal of c~linching
during the contest and Britt was re-
sponsible for it all. In his former
fights with Nelson he was as eager to
WELD a free arm as was the Dane, but
in last nights affair Jimmy contented

JEANNETTE'S WHIRLW WIND
FINISH GIVES HIM DRAW

BOSTON, Mass. March AFTER
beating Joe Jeanette for nine rounds
at the Armory A. A. last night, Sam
Langford tired from his own exertions
in the last two rounds and the result
was that the game New York heavy
weight came back and gave the local
middleweight a terrible beating, and
easily evened up matters. The decision
of a draw was satisfactory to nearly
every one of the 1000 fan who saw the
greatest battle that has been fought
here in the home of the Sacred Cod for
many years.
Both men were in the best of con-
dition and it was give and take all the
way, with Langford doing most of the
leading for the first nine rounds, but
the extra fifteen pounds that Jeanette
had on the shifty West Slider told after
that. and it looked bad for him in both
the eleventh and twelfth rounds, as he
stopped many terrific rights and left
hooks. which had him reeling around
the ring with danger of being put out
decisively.
In fact, the bell saved Langford in
both of the last two sessions. To his
great generalship alone Is due the fact
that Langford managed to last.
In the first round a hard left hook to
the jaw sent Jeanette to the foo for

MARLIN, Texas, March 4.-McGraw's
regular players are Ill in camp now,
Luther Taylor reporting at noon
Yesterday. Real practise will start to-
dav. Including MsGraw, there are
twenty-nine players. McGraw notes
with satisfaction that several mem-
bers of the squad are much lighter than
last season. 1t looks as if the Giants

tise game.

Donlin's regulars, who beat McGraWs

game went the full nine innings. All

the count of five. 1t was a terrible
blow, and only the grand condition Of
the New Yorker saved him from being
put out. He got up dazed, but q
aged to stall the round out, and in the
second more than held his own with
Langford.
In the third round Langford wrestled
Jeanette to his knees, and the minute
Joe got up he ran into a right hook
which sent him Keeling cross the ring.
1t looked at this stage as though jean
nette was due to a trip to the Land Of
Sleeps long before the end, but try as
he might Sam could not seem to get
over the one wallop that would end it
all.
From the third round until the tenth
there was nothing to the battle but
Langford. He was much the %cleverer
of the pair, and his blows seemed to
have much more power behind them.
Then came the tenth round. jean
nette came out looking much fresher
than in the previous rounds, and stag
gered Langford right off the reel with
a terrific right to the jaw, and for the
balance of the round he had the local
man in close quarters. In the next two
rounds Langford was very tired and
could not get out Of the way of jean
nette's punches.

Points.

himself with smothering Nelson's up
percuts and blocking Nelson's body
blows with crossed arms.
If Britt ha adopted similar tactics to
Nelson, that is, made an aggressive
contest, it is more than likely that one
or the other of the men would have
beer knocked out or would have
dropped from exhaustion before the
ten rounds limit was reached. Britt
said before the contest that he would
make every round a Britt" and he
certainly tried to. That is, he used the
well-known Britt cleverness and
knowledge of defensive work, to offset
the Danes willing methods.
What would have happened had the
articles called for d longer contest it
would be hard to say
Nelson was the stronger of the two,
and such of his blows as landed were
Furnishing ones. Britt. although his
deliveries were we'll timed and Clearly
placed. was shy on hitting force. This
particularly noticeable whenever
Britt steadied himself and put all his
power into a right-hand smash for the
jaw. He scored with not only one, but
a dozen. of these blows last night, and
there was none of them hard enough
to make Nelson pause for an instant.

event. The car driven by Shefts went
out of the running before a quarter
of a mile had been traversed, but half
an hour later took up the chase again.
The other American a went out at
the ten-mile turn, and Cedrino finished
the race alone. His time was III. som.
20s., much slower than the record,
which is III. Ism. 40s. Cedrino ran
sixty miles on three tires and a rim,
and from his credited time a total of
approximately 25 minutes was spent in

For the first time in his career as

Clarke will do on reaching Pittsburg

Dane Has Jimmy All but Out in
Sixth Round of the
Fight.

Los ANGELES, March 4.-Both jim

still on their feet when the gong
sounded the limit of the 10-round fight
at Naud's Pavilion last night. Some
acclaimed Britt as the winner; others
shouted Nelson" No official decision
was given, and at best the fight was a
draw.
Britt landed more blows than Mel
son, but they had little effect upon
the Dane. The Battler earned at least
a draw by the way he pummeled the
Californian in the sixth round. In this
particular spell of fighting the Dane
got to Jimmie's ribs with solid right
handlers. They hurt Britt to an extent
that he bent over and dropped his
guard. Nelson then did a Young
Ketchel stunt-he changed off to
swings for the head, and several stiff
blows caught Jimmie on the side of
the face. Nelson kept up his on
slaught infa determined way, m the
crowd at the ringside looked for him
