MCF arland Beats
One Round Hogan

New York, March 5.-Packey McFar-
land, the Chicago lightweight won all
the way in a 10-round bout with "One
Round" Hogan of California at the Fair
mont Athletic Club here, tonight
Mcfarland led SO easily all the way
through that many thought he could
have scored a knockout. The Chicago
man landed enough blows to knock out
six men if he had used more steam.
Hogan weighed in at the sringside st
1879 pounds an even pound heavier than
Mcfarland. The bout began with Me-
Farland leading with two lefts to the
face and an attempt at right swing
which missed and sent Mcfarland to the
floor by the force OF his own blow. He
was up in second, however, and began
fighting his man all over the ring and
into his corner with lefts To the face
and right uppercuts. He used this COM
bination repeatedly throughout the bou.
and seemed to have Hogan puzzled The
Californian hit only AT short range and
did not land single straight blow IN
the second.
