pretty ditty for Lew Glowney TO sing
today had he beat up Matt Brock az
Windsor last night. but as II is he -
wondering who, put the slam In
Brooks real name.
Glowney, Paul Sikoras young De-
troit protege, hasn't another victory
TO his credit today but he need not
feel discouraged.
His manager, Sikora. bit on for Lew
more than that boy could comfortably
chew at the present stage OF the game.
Matt Brock OF Cleveland outclassed
him and nearly had him out innum-
erable times In the finals at the Wind
sOr Athletic club last night.
Glowney need not feel discouraged.
He proved TO be clever boy against
a rough-and-ready fighter and skill

proved that he was game as q pebble
and capable OF standing enough pun.

Brock rushed Glowney from the
start. In the first three rounds he
used rough tactics and the cries from
the spectators were frequent TO
Watch that elbow" He started
Glowney's nose bleeding with what
seemed TO be a hlow from his elbow
during a clinch He butted him with
his head and pulled him in with one
hand while hitting him with the
other.
However. when Referee Rocks hac
warned him that III he did that once
lmore he would be disqualihedr he
ldidn't do the Wolgast, but fought as
cleanly as possible But by that
.ime he had Glowney so badly battered
that there was very little doubt OF the
result and he seemed content to let
Glowney stay during the remainder OF
the fight, although he had him groggy
nearly all the time.
Brock was q rushing scrapper who
kept close to Glowney. chasing him
all over the ring and he rained blows
on him with right and left. Glowney
kept fighting hard all the time IN
spite OF the fact that he was con
stantiy getting the worst Of 1t. He
slipped across several good blows 70
the body and some to the face, but
they didn't damage the Cleveiander
much.
Brock worried the Detroit youngster
all he could On leaving him after
rounds he would rub his bloody glove
across his face or tap him contemptu-
ously with open nJitt.
Glowney entered the ring apparent-
ly with little confidence and he did
not gain In that. The wonder or II
was that Glowney stayed the limit
