Jim FLYNN LOOKS
BETTER THAN COFFEY
Both Men Are Nowhere Near
the TopnOtch in Heavy
weight Class

NEW YORK. May 24.-There was
much difference OF opinion expressed
today over the Jim Flynn-Jim Corey
bout al Madison Square Garden, last
night, but the majority OF sport ex-
perts seemed 10 lean In favor OF Flynn.
The Pueblo fireman made rather
poor start, and In the first two rounds
/, looked like Coffey would slip over
a sleeping potion. Flynn, who weigh
ed more than IN any OF his previous
bouts came 10 after the second dound
and Coffey appeared TO lose heart
After the third the pace Flynn set
several times brought the spectators
TO their feet. but he showed his age
and had to be content merely with
keeping Coffey on the defensive for
the remainder Of the 10 rounds
One think all the critics agreed
upon was that neither man can ever
hope to grab the heavyweight crown.
