BADLY WOUNDED

at the ranch for the last week on a
hunting and fishing trip
kETCHEL'S SENSATIONAL CA
REER.
The career of Stanley Ketchel
was one of the most sensational in
the history of the prize ring. Max
ing his debut in Butte, Mont, in
1908, when but 16 years of age, he
fought with remarkable degree
of success for four years without
attracting much attention. In the
early part of 1907 he had managed
to work his way from Montana to
California, picking up cheap fight
now and then, never getting enough
to put him anywhere near Easy
street.
After knocking out George
Brown in Marvsville, on May 90,
1907, the promoters under whose
auspices he fought, touted him as a
world beaten. He was matched
with Joe Thomas, then looked upon
as the best middleweight in the
world. From that date, the battle
taking place on the afternoon of
July 4, Ketchel's name has been
written high in the annals of pugi-
lism. Comparatively unknown in
the great boxing centers, he gave
Thomas the battle of his life, al
most knocking him out. The af-
fair went 20 rounds and was called
draw. Ketchers bit was a small
one, and when he came to San
Francisco seeking a return en-
gagement with Thomas he barely
had the price Of bed and a meal.
A WORLD BEATER.
Jim Coffroth sized the Michigan
lad up at once as great fighter
and matched him with Thomas for
Aground fight on September 2,
1907. That fight will go down in
history as one of the greatest ever
fought between middleweights. For
80 rounds they battled savagely
first one man and then the other
having the advantage. At one
stage Ketchel looked a sure loser
hard right to the jaw sending
him to the mat 70, the count When
he arose he was groggy, but his
fighting instinct was still there and
he fought Thomas, who was trying
hard for knockout, with the fe
rocity of tiger. Ketchel's strength

ROWLBY HOUNDERLNC
IN DEEP WATER

State Highway Commissioner
Henry l.. Bowlby seems to be floun-

charge of extravagant engineer

the management of the convict rock
crushers, after which the crushers
were taken out Of the control of
Bowlby.
Now Bowlby is in another jangle
with the board of commissioners
of Spokane county over the COM
pletion of the Regal road and the

quickly returned and in the Thrift
eth round he began to let out,
Thomas showing signs of firing. In
the thirty-first he sent Thomas
down and almost out and in the
thirty he got his man,
punching him SO terribly that Har.
ry Foley, Thomas manager and
chief second, to save his charg
from possible death, jumped into
the ring and caught Joe in his arms
just as he was topping over from
the effects of knockout punch.
That victory made KetchelPs for

now come back to the commission
ers and asked for more money.
They refuse to give 1t on the
ground that they had already
granted one increase of double

hold that the state highway COM
