MURPHY-HUGHES BOX NICE
DRAW.
Bantams Give the Fans Six Speedv
Rounds at Camp Pike.

Jimmy Murphy Of St. Louis and
Bobby Hughes Of New Iberia,
La. boxed six clever rounds to a
good draw as the main number Of
a five-bout card staged at Miller
Field, Camp Pike, Ark, last night.
The bout offered everything that
could be crowded into six rounds,
in fact, the fans generally agreed
that they would have been given
very little more action had the
bout gone ten rounds as in the
past. The two boxers made a
great effort to make the shorter
bouts popular by not wasting a
single minute and to large ex-
tent they succeeded. Murphy and
Hughes fought just the sort of
bout as was expected. They were
conceded to be evenly matched at
the start and the finish proved it.
Both are brilliant little ring gen.
erals, both boxed clean and fair
and both put action into it all the
way. Hughes was the faster but
Murphy had the better punch.
Murhy had the better Of the open
work. but Hughes showed to bet
ter advantage in the in fighting.
Murphy gave the impression that
he was playing constantly for that
one punch that would have meant
dreams for his opponent. Hughes
went after the decision on points.
Neither succeeded. but their eff
forts made a treat for the fans.
