he handed Benny Kaufman in Phila-
delphia Saturday night was one of the
worst ever given the Sleepytown lad.
In the very first round Patsy hit Kauf-

for nine" Some persons have said
that Kaufman was really out, as at
least a second or two elapsed from the
time he hit the floor until the referee

the fight, a thoroughly-beaten man.
Patsy started to work today for the
Attell fight Friday. He will do road

and box in his gymnasium every after
noon until he thinks he is At.
