ma Was Unable to Land with
Eject on Elusive Bantam
Untn the Final Bound.
By J. 1, HUGHES.

Wateeloo, Ia, Nov. 6.-Tony ca
poni Of Rock Island was accorded
the popular decision in his 10-round
battle ct the Majestic theatre here
last night with Mike Dundee, Rock
lslAnd's speedy bantam.
Caponi won because he scored
more clean punches than MikA He
was able to slip through Dundee's
guard and the latter's punches slid
OF without doing any harm. Tony
worked his left to good advantage
and In the sixth round he counted
with . half dozen clean punches to
Mixes chin and solar region. In
the, seventh and eighth he bested
his opponent. In the ninth, Mike
came back and the round was even.
In the tenth Dundee fought Caponi
to the ropes and reached him with
straight rights to the Jaw and mid
section and, earned the round.
. The first five rounds were fairly
even with Dundee doing most OF
the leading. Caponi worked with
more elaboration than he Is won't
to do and stepped around his
rugged opponent keeping outside
or working his way through to q
clinch. In the early part neither
hoy landed to any appreaiable ad-
vantage. Tony made Mike miss so
many hard swings that Emil
Thiry's boy looked rather poorly to
the ringside fans
Dundee needs training with
sparring partners. His judgment
of distance was anything but good.
He repeatedly missed swings that
were intended to come up. on Tony's
chin.
It il likely that the two will be
matched again to tight, the next
time in Rock Island before the
homesfolks. After the battle, Man
ayers Thirty and Babe Meanor ten
tatively agreed to send them
against each other this winter.
Last nights affair was a lively
one and the several hundred fans
were kept on their toes throughout.
The house was evenly divided as to
favorites. Caponi seeming to have
the edge in this respect. At the
conclusion, the consensus Of opln-
ion as to the decision favored the
freak wop. Dundee earned many
friends, but there were few who
commended he was entitled to a
shade.
ToAys Best.
It was undoubtedly the best
that Caponi has ever been seen in
and It indicates clearly that he Il
well on the road to higher honors
The fact that the decision went
against Mike Dundee, however, is
no indication that he is not the
same, fast clever little boxer Of old
His battle the night before at Ke-
nosha in which he knocked out
Stanley Mcbride may have put him
OF color.
