J. Kelly was referee. In the carry
stages both men were cautious, Cullen
using a good left. In the third White
law let loose, but Cullen displayed
great defensive powers. and then both
men stood up to each other and dealt
out severe punishment. Cullen dealt
it out severely to Whtelaw in the fifth,
landing some good kidney punches
and he hooked right and left to the
law frequently. The sixth was an eX-
citing term. Whitelaw landed right
and left heavily and Cullen charged,
to stop left on the jaw and a right on

tackled desperately, but the honors Of
the round were with the Australian.
Thence to the fifteenth there was lit

stood up to each other again IN the

punches At the end of the twentieth
points were equal, and the referee, or
dering another three rounds, in which
there was some great fighting, White
