K. 0, BROWN WALLOPS-.
RUSSELL IN 10 ROUNDS

vorite, the fans were forced to adj
nit that Brown had bested him.
Russell was a favorite in the
betting, at 10 to s. This was be-
cause he defeated Battling Nelson
here two weeks ago. Local fans
considered Nelson better than
Brown, but there is no comparison
between the New York fighter and
the former lightweight champion.
So encouraged is RusselPs man
ager over the lads ability to last
ten rounds against the terrible
Brown, that he announced after the
scrap he would go right ahead with
arrangements for Russell to meet
Joe Rivers. He considers Knockout
Brown more dangerous man than
Rivers, and thinks that if Russell
can stay ten rounds with Brown he
can at least win a decision over
Rivers.
Brown has left New Orleans for
Atlanta, where on Friday night he
meets Jake Abel. With him is his
manager, Dan Morgan.
