ceived the official sanction for the an.
nual athletic meet at Washington Grove,

Walker expects to have the best aggre-

championship battle between weller
weights, the contest lasting just one
minute and so seconds.
There are shorter bouts on record.
but not between men Of this class, and
especially in bouts where a title was
at stake. The boys boxed for the well
terweight championship of Australasia,
as Dewitt held the New Zealand and
Queensland title, and Clabby had al
ready beaten Bob Bryant, the cham
pion of New South Wales, and Mark
Higgins, the Victoria champion. This
gives Jimmy a clear title now to the
championship of all Australasia, and as
he also has good claim to the Amer
lean title, why there is only the En-
glish champion in his way to land the
worlds championship of that class,
and Jimmy hopes to add that to his
list when he reaches London

shaking hands Jimmy retired to his

sides until Gus cid not know where to

rushed again and Clabby met him with
a short right cross to the jaw. Down
went Gus. and as the crowd howled
he scrambled to his feet at the count

and began swinging wildly. Jimmy

When Dewitt was taken to his corner
he opened his eyes and remarked, MY
word, but that youngster can hit. No
wonder he beat Ed. Williams. I take
my hat off to Mr. Clabby."
After the bout Clabby went to his
corner and had a quiet laugh to him
self for he had really expected a hard
battle knowing that Dewitt was big
and strong.
Clabby is now after Dave Smith, who
