Donley Knocked Out.
Mickey Donley crashed into the
surprise of his young life the other
might at Atlantic City, when George
CLANCY sent him to sleep In the fifth
round, From all accounts it was an
other of those Willie .Jackson-John
ME Dundee affairs. Until he put over
the knockout, CLANCY had been run
from the start of the bout. A lucky
punch, they say.
Don1ey has been hitting a fast clip
in the lightweight division and his
set-down by CLANCY ought not o tmar
his prestige. Mickey always was a
cautious bRttler, and how he ever
opened up enough for CLANCY to land
SO hard and clean is puzzling his
friends in this neck of the woods.
Possibly the big lead he compiled
proved his undoing in that it caused
him to drop his caution and the too
many chances.
Leonard-Lcwis.
Indications are that Benny Leon
ard and Ted Lewis will meet Septem-
Der 10. in Newark for their much
discussed bout. Lewis has practically
been cleared of the charges against
him before the Boxing Commission
for not appearing for a scheduled
bout last month al Hoboken, and II
looks like clear sailing for the match.
Stellar Event.
If the big benefit show OF the
Knights of Columbus at Brooklyn TO-
night pans put according to schedule.
it will be the biggest fstic treat ever
dished out. Almost every champion
and near-chamDion with the excep-
|tion of Jesse willard Is on the card.

Mickey belmont and Johnnie Ros-
ner may met again. It is understood
that Troxler Is dickering for theacard.
The two fast youngsters have met
twice. once in this city and a week
later at Trenton. Both bouts were
draws.
How About Herbert?
Matty Herbert seems to be resting
on his laurels these days. Since he
defeated Jack Tracey and Mickey Del
mont. Matty has not been heard
from. He certainly showed In the
two fights that be has enough in him
to make good at any Of the New Jer-
sey clubs. Matty should get out.
hustle around and book matches.
Possibly Matty is handicapped by the
lack of a good manager. Certainly
Bill Hechheimer is no vehicle to get
Matty anywhere. BIZ is too heavy.
