Fink beat Bauersoeks, X. O., five
rounds
McGurn beat Hoao, X. O., four
rounds.
Hugh Mcintosh Jackson made good
at the Asahi theater on Monday night,
and the big crowd of fans who at
tended had good time. Each Of the
three fights billed were responsible for
good lively stouching, and although
none of them went the full limit, they
made up for it by their Willingness,
The winners of the first two scraps were
surprise packets, as the betting was 4
shade in favor of the defeated men in
both eases. In the big fight of the
evening the betting was three to one
on the winner, although in the second
round the price eased up bit as the
local lad poured it into the tough nut
from the mainland.
jackson had things well arranged and
no more time than usual was lost be-
tween events, though at one stage Of
the game it looked as though there
would be no second preliminary at all.
Bauersocks, who was properly rung out
by the marine when he did get at 1t,
was inclined to be funny. No money,
no fight, was what he told Jackson and
the dollars had to be placed with the
referee before the fstswinger would
enter the ring. Just for a moment,
- r., i,n
an impromptu preliminary, for when
jackson told the Press what Bauersocks
had done it was nearly the end of the
promoter This is not the first time
that this boy has come at the same
game and it is time he was taught that
he Is not the only pebble that is to be
found around Waikiki beach. With
this exception the scraps passed off
quietly and Jackson is to be congratu-
lated on the management and good
clean fights that were billed.
The Fighting.
Perhaps of all the men that went
into the ring the palm for the best
scrapper should be handed out to Jim
Hoao. None of the fights We're IN any
way scientific, although they were
willing. The boy that took defeat from
MeGurns hands was very good with
his fooJwork and sidestepping, al
though he was hopelessly outclassed in
ring generalship. Young Fink was an,
other who followed close on Hoao s
lead. That left of his was poked out
in a dead straight line every time-you
ask Bauersocks about it-and it was
the only punch throughout the whole
of that fight that was pushed out any
where near the straight line. lie was
also very clever at getting away from
Socks wild gyrations.
McGurn easily figured as the best
ring general, but he is more of Il rough
and tumble man than boxer. His
footwork left him open time after time
if the local lad had only known enough
about the game to have taken advan-
tage of it. Joe has well earned his
reputation of being tough, as the pun
ishment handed out to him was enough
to have sent the ordinary pug TO sleep
half dozen times over. At the same
time il was the very fact of HOao be
NC able to slip in all this Cruel that
bears ont the point that although he
Is a good man Joe is not surprise
packet as a boxer. e.
Cans and Sarcone.
Young Nelson looked after Cans and
Sarcoue IN the opening bout and gave
the order, for clean breaking. The
weights Of the men We're given out az
Cans 122 and Sarcoue ten pounds
heavier. The latter looked it and dur
iug the ensuing scrap was glad t.
