lightly in and out and peppering Grit
fifth whenever he liked. When the
second round opened Griffith rushed
from his corner and flashed his IA

all but lifted the French lad from his
moorings. Then Griffith proceeded
to demonstrate TO the satisfaction of
all that the blow was not q chance
one by repeating it several times.

third evidently determined to make
up the ground he had lost but his en-
thusiasm waned when Johnny pep
