London, Sept. 3.-Eddy McGoorty.
of Oshkosh, Wis, was knocked Que
by Joe Beckett, the British heavy
weight champion, last night in the
seventeenth round of their sched-
uled twehty-round bout. 1t was 4
hard battle from start to finish, with
Beckett proving to have more class
than he had been credited with by
many of the ring critics. By this
victory Beckett is considered TO
have placed himself right IN line for
a battle with Jack Dempsey the
heavyweight champion of the world.
In the main preliminary to the
Beckett-McGoorty bout Fred Full
ton, the rangy American heavy
weight, registered one-round
knockout over Arthur Townley, Joe
Beckett's sparring partner, in one of
the preliminaries to the Joe Beck

Townley, of Southampton, was q
ready target for the big Americans
left. Fulton jabbed the home boy
freely, then flattened him with a LEFT
hook to the jaw.
This was the first European ap-
pearance of the big American.
