STANLEY HELD TO A
DRAW IN Ten ROUNDS
Frank Burns Gives British
Bantamweight Champion
a Terrific Battle.

New York, Jan. 2S.-Digger Stanley,
bantamweight champion Of England,
was held to a draw by frankie Burns
last night in furious ten round setto
before the National Sporting club. The
bout was one of the fastest seen here
this season, the two little fellows max
ing every minute of the thirty they
were fighting a busy one
The boxing was clever throughout
and the punching was hard for such
little boxers. Neither of the bantams,
however, was sent to the floor.
The pace cut out by the two seemed
too fast for them to hold OUT to the
end, but the final round was the fastest
of the entire fight. Each was out for
a knockout and a volley of fists was
flying through the air all during the
last three minutes of milling.
Many of those at the ringside
thought that Burns would have been
entitled to a decision had one been
rendered. close analysis of the
work of the two, however, can give but
one result, and that a draw.
