Like Bull.
r 7 IsToRY repeated itself last night

TT ISTORY repeated itself last night
i up at the new Olympic Club,
when Billy Leary and Danny
Savage met In q star bout that
demonstrated for the second time
Leary is the master Of Savage. Danny
went down In the tenth round, after
one minute and forty seconds of fight
ing, and the finish was about the same
as a year ago, when Bill first did the
trick at the Long Acre Club In New
York.
They don't come any gamer than
Savage. He received probably the
worst beating in his career last night,
but he eve WINGED. and struggled to
his feet and smiled and kept jabbing
with his left In an effort to keep Bill
from getting set to deliver his right
swing that wore him down gradually.
Leary himself felt for Savage when
the tenth round vas on, and appealed
to Referee Billy Glover to stop the
bout. He could not get Dan in the
proper position to deliver the hay
maker as he liked to. The Bloomfield
boy had Danny measured right several
times, the Orangeite topping all
around the ring ron the force Of the
swings. but even a push moved Danny.
At the end Of the seventh it was
plainly evident Savage was a defeated
boy. When he went to his corner he
showed the effect of Leary's blows. and
when 1t came time In the eighth to dis
play cleverness in getting out of danger
he could only do the Marathon"
Leary kept cool throughout. and
measured every blow, and continually
followed Danny around the ring to
land.
The final round was q ~hair-raiser.
The bell had saved Savage from being
counted out In tho ninth. and when he
stood up for tho tenth he could hardly
deliver a blow. Leary rushed In n
landed with lefts and rights. Savage
tried to stall by hugging, but Leary
wouldn't allow II and hooked with his
right and sent over a swing. Dan I'M
ly went down and Glover hesitated
slightly in the count. As his arm
moved up and down It was seen Danny
could not rise. and when he had count
ed nine he waved Billy back and car
ried Danny to his corner. He had been
knocked out, although the ten had not

OF doing this.
Leary met Savage coming out of his
corner in the ninth. and made 1t evil
dent he was going to end the battle
by putting Savage away. He landed
his right to the jaw n then started
punishment with short hooks. Towards
the end Dan was rocked from swings
and his head hit the ropes In Leary's
corner. He got together quickly, how
ever, but went down again in the
centre. The bell came to his rescue.
Savage Has EARLY Lead.
Savage really had a lead In the early
part of the bout by his clever jabbing
with the left, Leary being unable to
get away from II, and his right rye
went bad from the continual poking at
this member. Often Leary was success
full too. in connecting with a jab.
Leary was fighting the coolest battle
of the two, and accepted the 5tiff jabs
to get home his right swing.
There was a crowd OF q little more
500 at the show, and they enjoyed
the conveniences provided by the man
agement. The ring Is n Of tho best
in this section and the seating arrange
ments are excellent in providing a good
opportunity for everyone to see the
boxers. There was one disappointment.
but the managtA were not responsible.
Jumbo Wells was to nave met Kid Ellie,
of Paterson. in the semi-fnal but
Jumbo did not appear. despite the fact,
according to announcement he had
given at 4 o'clock, that he would be
present.
After fddling around for half a min
ute In the first round Leary connected
with a right swing and Danny jabbed
