a swinging right to the jaw which stag

the floor for a count of fourteen and
then did not appear to realize that he
had lost.
The bout prior to the sixth round was
even, neither fighter doing much dam

from McCarthyis mouth, but the Spring
field boy retaliated in like manner in
the second. The third was even, both
fighters resorting to short jabs which
did no damage In the fourth Morris
seemed to have the advantage. forcing
the fighting. In the fifth, however, Nc
Carthy came back strong. The sixth
round had hardly opened when he land
