The terrible loss OF life following

event that is the GROWING sensation

Johnny Outpoints Young
Baltimore Star in Ten
Rounds.

New York. Oct 19-Kid Williams
was outboxed by Champion Johnny
Coulon In their ten-round clash at
Madison Square Garden last night.
Williams ran away from Coulon for
nine rounds and didn't make stand
until the tenth, when he sailed In and
actually carried Coulon OFF his feet.
Champion John showed some of the
effects Of a long lay-off. He lacked
the snap Of his former work. and had
it been a longer fight Williams might
possibly have taken him into camp
In the opening round Coulon forced
Williams around, the Baltimorean
backing away for the first time in any
New York appearance At the bell
Williams landed three solid body
punches.
In the second Williams made It warm
for John. but Coulon ripped in a brace
of staggering blows and Williams
seemed to be in the air He came back
at the bell strong and forced Johnny
back with punch to the jaw
The third began with Williams
chasing Johnny back into his own cor
ner after he had toed the mark He
sent the champion Keeling with
forceful shower Of blows Johnny
could not get away from Williams
stir leads and went to his corner
blinking and a bit surprised
Coulon rushed like a little bull in
the fourth Williams met him with a
stir left to the nose. They spared at
arms length and seemed to be resting
for mad finish Johnny landed two
nice lefts to the face at the bell
