~ ATTLING HURLEY scored an
II other victory last night by win
ming from Benny Franklin, of
Harlem, at the Olympic Club of New
York In a ten-round bout that was full
of action from bell to bell.
After Hurley weathered a fusillade
Of rights and let's on the jaw in the
first two sessions he came to bat and
took a lead that he held to the end by
forcing his opponent and outf1ghting
him in close quarters.
1t was Hurley's relentless attack on
the body tina made Franklin give
ground, and 1t was very noticeable in
the rallies that Franklin was first to
give way and welcome clinches when
the going grew too warm.
Franklin had one really good chance
to score a k~nockdown during the ten
rounds, and it looked bad for the Bat
tier at that stage Of the game. 1t came
in the first round after Franklin plant
I'd a left and a right on Bats jaw.
The latter blow staggered Hurley INK
he was forced to go to cover. Franklin
took advantage of the condition Hurley
was in and was after his man hammer

held his ground and refused to be fiat
tened.
Benny tried hard to end the bout
right there, but he was not there with
the sleep wallop, and the bell found
Hurley fighting madly at the end.
In the second session Franklin re-
newed his attack and succeeded in rip
ping in some good welts on the head
and body. Hurley had partially recov-
| cred from the effects of the heavy wal
Looping he received in the first round
and was there for keeps when it came
to exchanging wallops at close range.
Hurley came out second best in the
exchanges in the second, Franklin's
blows being cleaner and landing
oftener.
After number two wal over Hurley
started firing away with both hands to
the body, and soon had the Harlem lad
backing up and holding.
