CLANCY was out for 10 minutes after

CLANCY Rushes Champion
Kilbane was keeping Chaney at a dis
tance with his left jab and George, furious
at being hit often, started to rush the
champion Twice he was stopped by n
shower of lefts, but that did not keep him
back. Chaney rushed n third time, and drew
back his left to shoot at Kilbane's head or
body. The blow never landed. Stepping in,
Johnny grabbed Chaney's arm and partly
twisted him around. Then he. placed his left
hand on Georges jaw and tilted the head
SO that it could be reached with right
hook. Quick as n flash. Kilbane sent the
blow home and Chaney dropped. lie

by the wise persons and he didn't even
have that. To use plain, hard language.
Rilbane made a sucker out of CLANCY while
he was in the ring. The Baltimore boy
was helpless from the start and it easily
was seen that there could be but one end
ing to the bout. George could not get past
Kilbane's left jab. He tried every possible
means, but the tantallzlng glove always was
in his face.
X lbane acted just like Joe Cans when
he was in his prime, using his left until his
opponent was in position to receive n knock
out and then sending the haymaker home.
After holding the usual arguments about
gloves and everything else, the lightest set
was selected and the bell rang. Johnny
Immediately began using his left and in 10
seconds Chaney's face was as red as the
setting sun. They clnched and George
landed light left to the body Then Kill
bane hit Chaney in the left eye with his
right and split his glove. This blow par
TALLY blinded the challenger and he well
coined the rest which followed the inter-
mission while another glove was put on
Kibane's hand.
CLANCY Is Helpless
When the battle was resumed Chaney was
as helpless as before he was bewildered
and a swelling appeared under the injured
eye. JRb after jab was sent to Chaney's
head. George shook his head and tried to
hit the milling face of Kilbane. but his
blows never handed. Many times Johnny
just stuck out his left hand and held
Chaney at a distance while George swung
wildly with his left and right, the blows
missing by inches.
In the second stanza It was just the same
Johnny, fighting carefully at all times
stepped around. jabbed repeatedly and
smiled at Chaney's futile efforts to land his
famous left smash that earned him the title
of knockout king" But Chaney was only
