Brown-GoIdman Go Stopped
TERRY NELSON, the Greek light.

TERRY NELSON, the Greek light
weight, stopped Jack Mcmahon,
of Chicago, in the fourth round
of scheduled ten round bout at the
Columbia Theater last night. A right
hook to the jaw put Mcmahon to the
mat for the ten count.
The boys put up careful battle for
the first three rounds, both trying to
make every punch count. Terry's
blows. however, carried the most force
and after the second round McMa-
hon showed that he was in for a lac
ing.
Terry looked better last night than
he has in some time around here and
should get on with better boy. The
Greek lightweight also has developed
a good kick in his right hand
The semi windup between Kid
Brown and Young Goldman proved a
bloomer and an extra bout was put on
between Kid York and Frank Bass.
Goldman refused to open up and made
a sorry showing. Brown at least tried
TO fight, Mike Saul stopped the bout
in the fourth round. Bass and York
put up a good scrap for four rounds

fast rounds of battling. Robinson
landed the cleaner blows and was
justly entitled to the verdict.
