Kilbane Gets De-
eisiOn Over Walsh.

Boston, Sept. I6.-Johnny Kilbane of
Cleveland, Ohio, the featherweight
champion. won a decision over Jimmy
Walsh of Boston. in a 12-round bout at
catehweights, tonight, before the Atlas
Athletic Association.
1t was the third bout between the
two men and the first decision at any
of their meetings. Walsh was appar-
entity much lighter than Kilbane and
fought defensively most of the time.
Without offering very strenuous
offence Kilbane scored minor points in
nearly every round Walsh did not land
half a dozen blows up to the 10th.
Then he started an attack of left and
right swings, several of which found
their mark on Kilbane's body and
neck. The champion, aroused, rained
blows upon his opponent and one right
uppercut sent Walsh to the mat. He
was apparently daZed for a second or
two, then taking time during count
of eight, Strengthened up for action.
Kilbane rushed him but was stopped
by the bell.
Except for the 18th round. this was the
only extended series of punches through
Walsh became the aggressor for a time,
but Kilbane checked all but a few of his
efforts, then himself took up the attack
and scored two punches for Walshs one
in the last two minutes of fighting.
During the early rounds, Kilbane made
some futile swings around Wash's head.
so clever was the Boston boys defence,
but occasionally the blows landed. One
with a left hand caught Walsh over the
eye in the third round and made him
vince. Another landed under Walsh's
ear in the fifth round. In the seventh Kill
bane crossed a right to Walsh's jaw.
followed it up with several light lefts
and Walsh, at a loss entirely to evade
the blows, slipped to the mat. 1t was not
a knockdown
Walsh's scoring was almost entirely
with his left, but a right to the stomach,
which he got across in the seventh was
his most effective punch in the first nine
rounds
