Again and again Welsh drew APP
plause by his lightning left jabs, and
the speed and snap of his right cross.
Even more ger rally appreciated was
his defensive work in the infrequent

Briton's ducking was beautiful to sea,
and often it was combined cleverly
with semi Sidestep-the natural de-

using the right cross. At times t

Frank Fights Game English Champion
FREDDIE WELSH GIVES WHITNEY ARTISTIC LACING

About the middle of the second
round Whitney copied the Briton
with straight right on the chin.
Welsh's head shot back. and for ten
seconds there was a wild whirl of
smuggling, with the Englishman show
ing disposition to try for a hay
maker right there. That was Whit
ney's best round; in fact. he didn't get
in another hard punch until the sixth
round, when he showed his last flash
of steam.
In this session Frank finally got a
clean uppercut home. and it shook
Welsh's head yisibly but aside from
showing that Whitney still had a
sting left, the blow only caused the
Englishman to fly into his opponent
with a dazzling whirl of straight left
iabs. mixed with a well-crossed right,
that rocked Whitney's head like a
punching bag.
Nearly a knockdown.
II was toward the finish OF this
same session that the nearest thing
to knockdown occurred Welsh was
driving Whitney back into his own
corner with series of vicious jabs.
One OF them lifted Franks chin bit.
and like flash the Englishman' s
right cross drove home.
The blow was perfectly timed. and
1t caught Frank somewhat back on his
heels, twisting him sharply. Down he
went, turning In the air, but caught
IN one hand, while the referee, think
ing with good reason that he would

Whitney recovered instantly and
weathered a terrific storm of boxing
gloves for the rest of the round.
II Was All Welsh.
From that point on, it was all
Welsh-merely a question II he could
put the willing Whitney away. Welsh
tried. certainly. and Frank stuck to
his thanlSless Job like man. refusing
either to hang on or run under fire.
In the last two rounds Welsh's arms
worked like piston rods. but at the
finish Frank, though rather wabbly in
the pins, was still coming in for more.
Whitney's courage is unquestioned.
