WHITE IN FAST
10 ROUND BOUT

New York, Dec. 3O.-Joe Shugrue
OF Jersey City, n. j.. outfought Char
ley White of Chicago in 10-round
bout at Madison Square Garden last
night. Shugrue had the better of
seven rounds.
Both men weighed in under 1873
pounds at 9 o'clock this evening and
their ringside weights were: Shu-
grue 1873 Ia. White 100 Ia. 1t was
a clean, fast fight. Shugrue forced
the pace nearly all the way while
White during the early rounds was
cool and seemingly confident. He
met Shugrue's right counters but he
depended mainly on his left hand.
Shugrue shot jab after jab to the
face and White retaliated with left
hooks and short right crosses, one
OF which caught Shugrue's nose In
the opening round. At times they
stood toe to toe in hot mix-ups, but
Invariably the Jersey lad had the bet
ter of the argument.
Although honors were even in the
fourth White stumbled off his bal
ancc and snugrue sought him with a
lett swing In the stomach.
In the fifth, sixth and seventh Joe
forced the fighting and frequently
blocked Whites returns cleverly. In
/ the eighth the Chicago lad showed
aggressiveness and sent in some hard
blows to the body as we'll as hook.
