THERE WAS SOMETHING
WRONG WITH BILLY LEARY
Broke Ground Repeatedly in Ten-round Bout
Which Charlie Seiger Won Easily Young Wild
fang a Sensational Savage to Fight.

80 YVES something radically wrong with Billy
Leary last night when he faced Charlie Seiger.
- the iron jaw fighter. of Hoboken, at Browns
gymnasium. The contrast between the first meeting of
the two and what was witnessed last night was striking.
Ieary stood out the ten rounds, but he was badly beaten.
With all due r aspect to Leary, it must be said that
fear seemed the largest composition in his makeup last
night. If his legs are not tired today from running back
wards around the ring it is a wonder. In one round only
did he display a Hash of his capabilities.
Out for a win, Seiger directed right and left swings
TO the jaw in the concluding rounds, but as he had
to do the work, while Leary 'Marathoned," 1t was q
hard proposition for him to score a Knockout. Seiger
showed a willing ness to stand and exchange at all
times, but the Ola dstone boy was not there" to play the
stand-up game. 1t was a somewhat Disguised throng that
left the big clubhouse at the end. but an excellent card
of preliminaries, in which Young Wildfang, the seasons
