Dundee Easy Winner
Down at the National Johnny Dundee
had an easy time of It with Joe Phillips,
battering the slow-moving Phillips for
six rounds. Dundee proved far too
clever and had little trouble In avoiding
the savage thrusts thrown his way by
Phillips.
In the semiwind-up Johnny Mealy had
the better of Terry McGovern in re-
turn engagement. This was another en-
tertaining exhibition.
There were two big surprises in the
third and fourth bouts. The first came
when Young Robideau knocked out
Eddie Morgan. the English feather
weight, in the second round. Then Joe
Burman, of Chicago. added to the sur
prise by stopping Dave Astey, the boy
who lost to Jimmy Wilde, in the first
round.
Burman looked very good and had his
man dazed from the time the first punch
landed early in the round. A left hook
put Astey down for the count.
In the other bouts Walter Mohr de-

JOHNNY DUNDEE SCORES
By JAMES S. CAROLAN

DOXING has come back. The popu-
- larity and prosperity of the ring
game of pre-war days had its inning
yesterday. There was cause for thanks
giving, among the fans and promoters
alike. Banner boxing programs were
staged, the promoters saw their first
healthy box office receipts in many
months and the game as whole showed
signs of renewed life. Just when the
promoters were becoming discouraged.
doubtless as to the life of the game for
the winter season, along comes the ces-
sation Of hostilities "over there" and the
renewal of fighting "over here"
AS the last fan turned away from the
various clubs there were murmurings of
satisfaction. Previous to this there al
ways was something which seemed to
keep the guests worried Many were
awaiting call others We're on the re-
serve, but the fear of draft raids and the
subsequent inconveniences served to keep
the fans in allegiance.
Olympia Jammed
The Olympia was jammed to the doors.
Jack Dempsey failed to come through
with knockout, but the verdict for the
six rounds was all in his favor. He
forced the fighting, drove home the
telling punches that were landed and
never was in danger. The pronounced
timidity of Miske was very apparent
In the first three rounds. but in the
concluding sessions the st. Paul boy
improved and mixed 1t better.
Miske was in there to stay six rounds.
He watched and guarded every Dempsey
thrust. The coast battler was there to
end the fray, but he failed to put his
knockout punch where It could do dam
age. He handed Miske a severe body
lacing and gradually was wearing down
his man. Dempsey employed his famous
"thudding" tactics, as described by Phil
adelphia Jack O'Brien. According to
Philadelphia Jawn, the "thudding," or
continued battering with choppy blows
to the body, are most disconcerting,
damaging and weakening.
Miske Surprises
Miske was expected to go the route
followed by Battling Levinsky and
Porky Flynn. But Miske was not a
Flynn nor a Levinsky. He proved to
be a big, clever fellow, strong, willing
and game. He took Dempsey's power
full right drives and left shashes to the
body without a murmur. Only once, the
fifth round. did he finch, and then it
was leIt 10 tue SlOlndChr WHICH Causeu
him to give momentary signs of crum-
bling. However. he managed to cover
up quickly and block Dempseys extra
efforts to make it a knockout.
1t was discovered that Dempsey's
great asset is the 'thudding'' tactics.
The continued jolting and humping is
most distressing. Dempsey crowded his
man continually. and never stopped
shooting home those telling short blows.
Miske's body was battered until he was
deep red. His face only came in for
punishment when Dempsey decided to
force the st. Paul lad to shift his guard
and to play for a body opening.

rying only a small cut over his left eye.

Action Delayed

1918 record compares favorably with
those of other days.
Action Delayed
It was not until the second half that
the Penn eleven swung into real action,
but when 1t did start boys! how 1t did
travel. Dartmouth men may point out
that intercepted forward passes, fluke
plays, led to two Penn scores, but that
only proves that the Quakers were fol-
lowing the ball and. furthermore. the
statistics show that the Green gained
only one first down. which Is a glowing
tribute to the Penn defense.
Joe Straus was the comeback of the
year. Starting the season many things
were expected of the Texas youth, but
his showing was great disappointment.
Yesterday, although in the game only a
few minutes, he redeemed himself He
was hurried to the field to crack the
Green forwards, when Penn had the ball
on the 7-yard mark. He succeeded and
the Quakers Tailed their second touch
down.
on the first play after the kickoff he
intercepted a Sanderson-thrown forward
pass and ran 40 yards for the third
and final touchdown of the season. To
add to his scoring. Joe kicked the goal
after his touchdown.
Crawford Wide Awake
Shorty Braun was another youth who
played great game, and Crawford at
center was a tower on the defense as
well as the offense, The West Flr-
gina boy intercepted a Dartmouth pass
In the third quarter and ran 35 yards
for the first touchdown. 1t was he also
who intercepted a Swarthmore pass and
tailed the winning touchdown against
the Garnet last Saturday.
Acting Captain Jim Neylon was an-
other young man who played up to his
best In fact, the entire Penn line was
stronger than expected. Dartmouth
backs usually were thrown for losses
when they tried the defense of the Red
and Blue.
Coach Spears had group Of boys who
did not seem to know much about the
game, but they played just as hard at
the end as they did at the beginning.
The former all-American guard has had
very inexperienced material this season,
and, Furthermore, he was not able to get
his team out for practice until late in
the season, because Of the influenza cpl
