youth, still in his white tights, showed
some of his old-time form in the first
round. He sent Madden's head back
with a couple of stiff left jolts, but
Madden came back earnestly and cum
bersomely.
MAdden made some ferocious rushes
in the second round, only to find his
chin in contact with Weinert's rapid
fire left. Finally the rushing Madden
sank in hard right just under
Weinert's heart. 1t made the 1.-the
Hungarian American vince.
Madden's Swings Effective
II Madden came out of his corner with
a rush in the third, letting go a swing
that would have torn Weinert's head
Off if it ha landed, but it missed and
Weinert got in Furnishing left.
Weinert seemed annoyed by the awk-
wardness of Madden. He was even
more annoyed when two wild swings
by Madden landed on his head and
the round Weinert opened cash over
Madden's left eye.
Madden's injured optic bled some
in the fourth, but he kept Weinert
boxing cautiously for fear that one of
the wild swings might find a target.
Madden kept close to Weinert in the
fifth until Weinert shot over a right
cross behind left jab, and the chunky
heavy in green tights was reelinr for
a second or two.
In the sixth Madden gave Weinert a
right uppercut to the jaw that annoyed
the recipient exceedingly. The man in
the green tights followed his ADVANTAGE
by rushing Weinert to the ropes and
landing another uppercut. Both were
somewhat weary in the seventh, and
Weinert went rather heavily to his
corner at the end of the round. The
crowd began to stamp impatiently in
the eighth.
Weinert Declared Victor
This nettled Weinert, who pulled
off Madden's jaw, but they seemed to
have little or no effect. Time was when
Weinert would have dropped man
like Madden with one of those punches
but that was some years ago
Again in the ninth Weinert pushed d
the rushing Madden back and planted a
solid left to the jaw, but it did no ap-
parent harm. Another right all hut
closed Madden's eye, but, using lis one
eye. ne continued to press forward
There was perfunctory handshak-
ing in the tenth. Weinert Immediately
sent right to the injured eye, but
the half-blinded Madden charged ahea1
like wounded bull and rasped Vein
ert's jaw with right. Weinert ham
mered at Madden's body. Just before
the bell Madden grazed Weinert's jaw
with right that would have hurt if it
had landed fairly. The judges decided
for Weinert.
Norfolk Starts With Rush
At 9:40 there was somber cloud
looming through the smoke and KiC
Norfolk, camoufaged by a few short
towels. entered the ring followed BY
Big Bill Tate. Bill loomed over Nor
folk like a tower and had the advan-
tage of .hfty-two pounds in weight
Ihe little Seneegambian fie at Tate
the minute the bell rang and it seemed
that the bout would be very brief. The
coal black Kid, who suggested San,
Langford at his best, had big Bill
worried from the start with two marc
lefts to the body and some stiff rights
to the jaw. The Kid reached Bil's
high hung jaw by leaping like an en-
ragged orang outang.
After the opening round, Big Bill
who is light Senegam
olan, was several shades paler. He got
paler when the bell rang a second
time and the little black demon reached
him twice in the center of his altitude
with stiff rights William uncorkec
one long-range right, but the Kid wa:
not there when it arrived. Two lefts
reached the mark, though bouncing of
Norfolk's bullet-head, and the Kc
caromed off the ropes. The Kid made E
noise like the boom of drum when he
smote Tate in the middle at the end ot
the round.
Tate's Jaw Bombarded
Tate complained in the third rount
when Norfolk landed right on his bell
line. A second later the bounding
human crang outang leaped into the
air and landed left to Tates jaw
The Kids white eyeballs CLEANED ever
brighter than the mercurial electric
light cluster over the ring.
At the start of the fourth Norfolk
crashed his left against Tate's jaw
again. Tate almost sent him on his
launches with left to che chin, but
it only brought Norfolk bounding back
Another left from the little black al
most upset Tate. but he made ont
. charge and reached his opponent with
two blows to the body.
In the fifth round the Kid was chatter

tree ancestors, complaining that Tate
was holding. Tate retorted by embrac
ing him playfully, and the gibberine
Kid lashed out with left to the longer
Sencgambians jaw. AS Tate missed 6
. right swing the Kid connected with 6
left.
The Kid showed back his broad lips
in the sixths showing full array OF
, tusks, and staggered Tate with ter
rife left to the jaw. Another left te
the same place made Tate hold or

the left as Sam Langford used to dc
it He varied this attack by putting

The cleaning tusks Of the sombel

. SEVENTH as he danced about looking
, for an opening. He found it and shot
in right to the body. Then he grinnec
to his corner as Tate closed with him
, Tate missed a ponderous right swing
and the Kid chuckled out loud. Tate
was bleeding from the nose when the
round ended.
Kid Gets Decision and Diamonds
Tate grazed the Kids face with left
in the eighth, and the bounding little
black demon chartered angrly. He oe
came angrier still when Tate sent a
