WILSON TRIES 'MOLAR' PUNCH ON STEIN
Joe, However, Had Discarded
His False Teeth and Could
Not Return Blow.

= fore he entered the ring at Nc
Guigan's to fight Kid Wilson. and his
effort to cohnect with a left-side molar
wallop to the right cheek failed in
the sixth round after Wilson had bit
ten Stein in the early part of the bout.
The place was in an uproar in an in
slant when Wilson bit Stein in the
ear. Stein backed to his corner, hold
Ing the ear and his manager, Sam
Goldin. ran frantically around the ring
to reach Wilson's corner, but he was
held in check. Others tried to Jump
into the ring, but we're held back by
Paddy Michigan.
1t would be hard to dignity the affair
by calling 1t q good scrap. 1t was a
wrestling match and hugging bee al
most continually, and the efforts to
tear them apart at mostly all times
were. unavailing.
The crowd jerred In almost every
round because of the name In which
they were separated. The connection
continued after the bout when one
spectator mad a remark to Wilson
passing out of the club.
The alleged biting occurred on two

was trying to land with his teeth.
but found he had left his false molars
on the outside.
There was a large pile OF money lost
on the affair. Most of the bets were
that Stein would not last the ten
rounds, but he surprised everybody in
the early part by beating Wilson to the
punch, and even excellent at infghting.
The hard work came in the ninth and
tenth rounds, when Wilson vas sent
out to score a knockout and ave those
who had banked on him to win inside
the limit. Stein was hanging on be-
cause of body blows of Wilson. who
was fighting like a tiger to overcome
the lead Stein q obtained. But he
could not put Joe away.
Wilson probably never fought before
as he did last night. He could rot
seem to get set to deliver his punches
and he lost his head. apparently. when
Stein pushed him back with left Jabs.
While Stein delivered most of the
blows In the bout. he did not seem to
hurt Wilson much; but II was a tanta-
lizIng left Stein had. and II exasperated
Wilson because he was aware of the
amount bet on him. n he tried his
best TO score.
Many were the expressions after the
thing ended. Some styled II every kind
of an affair. There were many boxers
present, and some of them almost
s~huddered.
But that new molar blow is some
wonder. 1t is probable no effort will
be made to cultivate IT around this
section. It should be canned" quicklv.
Kid LANCER started off in the prelims
with Kid Williams. but the out was
stopped in the first round and Battling
Baum was substituted for VILLAINS.
LANCER won In four rounds. Jack
Hardy had the better of a four-round
argument with Kid Erwin. Young
Barker defeaed Joe Grady and KID
Herman. q very good boy. gave weight
and a beating to Young Wiltse In a six
round session.
