KRUG GAINS FRIENDS
AMONG SOUTHERNERS

According to the st. Louis Press Will
lie Krug of Hammond is fast gaining
fame among the southern fight fans,
where he is showing considerable class
and is slowing the scrappers away just
as fast as they come to him Since
leaving Hammond a year ago Krug has
had long list of fights and will be
able to come back home with a record
that he has not lost a match. Re-
garding his last fight New Years eve
st. Louis paper prints the following:
Eddie Kennedy of East ST Louis
started off in whirlwind fashion in his
ten-round tilt with William Krug of
Hammond, Ind, and it looked like he
would put the Indianian out in short
order. But after the first round Krux
began to show up well with a long left
which had awful jolt behind 1T and
came stronger right along. In the
fourth round Kennedy got jolt on the
jaw which made him feel Hammond.
Ind, was on the map. Then Referee
Sharpe took a look to see how badly
Kennedy was off. The latter explain
ed that he did not have enough wind
to finish the go. The crowd was some
what bewildered as to why a blow on
the jaw should affect the wind. Krug's
manager, Leo Kelly, wants to arrange
a match with Benny McGovern. allow
ing Benny to come in at 122 pounds al

Judge Reiter early this week on the
