LIFE AMI BATTLES OF
JOHN L. SULLIVAN

II required twenty-one rounds for Cor.
bett to whip Sullivan. And, during those
twenty-One rounds there was not a time
hen Sullivan was able to land q solid
blow ON his youthful, speedy opponent.
AS for Corbett, he contented himself
with speeding about the ring, ducking
Inside occasionally to rip dome a long
left that finally closed Sullivan's eyes
and cut his face to ribbons. Sullivan, fat
and slow, could neither catch Corbett to
hit him, nor could he protect himself
from the blows that, deadly-in preeis-
ion, ripped home one after the other.
Sullivan believed the end was coming

low from the west. He knew that his
ways Of living had brought him to the
threshold Of defeat. But his lion heart
and determination carried him on until
he dropped from sheer exhaustion. For
the first time in his life he heard a
referee count the fatal ten over his W
PROSTATE form.
Speaking after the fight Sullivan de-
clared he knew everything that was GO
ing en- and made every effort to get
up. His body responded to his will, but,
he said, his legs were practically para
lyzed.
AS the last count rang out in the
tense air that surrounded a new heavy
weight champion, Jim Corbett turned
from his PROSTATE foe and received a
mighty ovation, but when, a second la

and reeled to the ropes, the crowd hush
ed at the raising of his hand.
"Gentlemen," shouted the gruff
voice of the old gladiator. ''I'm glad an
American beat me. He Is a better man
than / am
And with choking throats and throb-
bling hearts, a loyal boxing crowd roared
a cheer that shamed the salvo which had
acclaimed Corbett as the new champion.
Away from the ring that day John l..
Sullivan wept his grief among his
friends. The end had finally come TO
his invincibility and he realized it. He
also realized that it was liquor that
was to blame-not the fact that he had
met his master. He drank q bottle Of
beer while he dressed in his hotel room,
and, gazing at the liquid, he told
friends;

life, instead Of drinking whiskey, I

a lost title. ia still be the champion. -
Back to New York he went after this
bout, a completely broken-hearted man.
His sister met him at his hotel in New
York, and with their arms around each
other, they both wept over the misfor-
tune which finally had caught up with
the huge Boston champion. Crowds of
curious followers and friends of John
l.. wiped tears from their own eyes as
they witnessed the pathetic meeting be-
tween brother and sister.
