Square Garden.

New York. Oct. 26.-Johnny Dundee,
of New York, outpointed Willie Rit-
chic of San Francisco. American light
weight champion, in their ten round
fight at Madison Square Garden here
tonight.
Dundee won the honors in Ave rounds
and the champion had the better OF
three. two being even. Richie had an
advantage of almost nine pounds,
weighing 141 Ia to Dundee's 1872 1-2.
The contest was hard fought after
the first. two rounds, when Richie was
unable to find his man and was forced
to clinch frequently. Dundee's pecn-
liar jumping style puzzled the west
erner.
Richie took the aggressive in the
third round and carried 1t by shade,
although Dundee showed well at the
infighting. Referee Brown cautiq1ed
Richie for holding in the fourth.
which was. even. Dundee took the next
three rounds, scoring with a left jab.
His clever footwork kept Richie
guessing. many of his blows going
wild. Richie sent in several hard
rights to the head and body in the
eighth, weakening Dundee, and in the
ninth kept the local boy on the de-
fensive.
Both administered severe punish
ment in the final round.
