of bulk was hurled at 210
pounds Of the same stuff
mostly fat and unframed muscle
at the Dixie Athletic clubs opening
show, and the heavier bulk won in
two POUNDS. Carl Morris stopped
Jack Heating with a right hand
smash to the stomach.
1t wasn't a fight, but d one-sided
affair-onesi sided as much as the
u. S.-Spain fiasco down in Cuba
not so many years back. Morris
could have probably won in the first
round had he cared But he wanted
to give the fans a little run for
their money and very generously
held off until the middle of Spasm
2 before forcing us to rise from our
comfortable seat and ease ourselves
out into the night atmosphere.
No Fighting in First Round.
Round one amounted to naught.
Heating, tall, lanly Canadian who
claims the heavyweight title north
of the Falls, did a few fancy steps
that would have done credit to
Genee. and always fell into a
clinch as he finished the last step Of
the light fanta stic stuff AS he went
into these clinches he didn't know
how to protect himself any more
than a fish out of water. Morris
could have pumped either hand to
the stomach and sent the young
Canadian to the Land of Sleep.
But, as | said before. the Sapul-
pa giant very kindly held off until
Round 2 In this second and final
period Norris meant business. He
chased Heating to the ropes He
jabbed with his massive paW-a
veritable ham-and first blood was
his, for the organ was smashed TO
a pulp.
Then Carl stepped back to view
the artistic" work that the jab had
done. Heating, for~no reason In the
world, rushed into the $50 pounds
of Oklahoma beef, head lowered.
A right uppercut caught the ca
madam on the chin and he Topped
to the canvas for a count of eight.
AS he arose a left hook to the head
sent him down again He was up
at five" but very wabbly Again
he rushed in with lowered head. and
Morris hooked hard with his left.
but II was a wild offering and went
over the Canadians head. But his
right didn't miss the mark.
should say not.
Right to Body Finished Il.
The second Morris saw his south
paw go astray he brought up
right from the floor and it penetrat-
ed broke, smashed and busted
Keating's guard as though ii was
so much paper. and the sledge-
hammer fist buried itself about ten
inches in the Canadians rotund
stomach
As soon as Morris pulled his fist
out Heating fell to the floor. He

caused the Titanic TO founder and
sink to the bottom Of the Atlantic.
Ii was fully an hour before he real
lied that his name was Heating.
And ! imagine that his breakfast
this morning and for many morn
ings 10 come will consist OF moth
ing heavier than thin soup.
Morris is not the same Morris
that fought Jim Flynn in Madison
Square Garden year ago. His
physical condition at present is
about par in a Brew league. But
Carl says that he is coming back"
now and that 1t will take him two
or three good, hard fights to get at
his best. Wen take his word for il.
As for Heating. | said yesterday
that ! had no line on him and print
