Steadnlan LOOK the first round by his cleverness and his good infighting, landing some heavy blows to the jaw, and making Morley bleed. The second round was Morley's, as he did most of the lead ] ing and landed the cleaner and harder blows. The third round was even, both boys mixing freely. In the last round Steadman put Morley in bad shape, landing some heavy body punches and crashing some terrific right jaIbs to Morley's jaw. Morley oJtweighed Steadnan by about eight pounds. This was a good bout {! In the senin-final bout of the even ing, Mike McCabe of New York earned a draw with Young Angelo. Of Stamford.
