Mt the end Of the contest, having
taken about six rounds while

were even. The superb exhibition
Of gumeaeEs Uaan the part Of the
scrunuV little Hawkins was the
one ding that put the fans IN
good humor as they we're home
Wurr Huuula- They wished hearth

Lewis Couldn't Hit Hin
Lewis Invariably LED with a LETT
and used flying chop to the hack
Of the head WHOA FoWser- ducked-
every moment OF the contest but he
could not land effective blows. He
started clareC from Lewis nose in
the early rounds and the san Fran
ciscau retaiated by opening up a
slight cut upon Fraukie's cheek
which showed red once or twice. The
1lasterIul Dick Griffin, head adviser
in the corner Of FoWser, early had
the number Of the Californian and he
poured words Of ADVICE into the F0w-
which the FL Easo middleFTeiEht
turned to Eood advantage before the
end Of the session.
Had Lewis the capable handling Of
FoHser he may have put up better
battle
Hnd he also turned an atten-
tive ear 10 fhc clever tfDutchr
CroEier instead OF listening to the
HdmonifiqnE Of a-sbUrIg eI=umg,
whose fneulfy when In the ring
vas TO get knocked out IN the
Irat frre or dhrae rounds, he
would have done better beyond
doubt. Cro1ler 81 clever enough

and chief adviser is unuuesfioned.
after about the sixth E0uud the
fans became "rllec. and began to 90
some husky booing. This was di-
recre1 at the holding tec1lc1 Of Lewis
and the boxers cauas right back with
some pretty last work This period
OF activity ended shortly, however,
along with nOrhlng TO mar the Sc
reneuess OF the evening except the on-
casi0nal intonation Of the bell and the
boosting OF some N'uWser supporter,
who urged his favorite to get in and
mix il as he was confident he could
land q lznpckout upon his cumber-
some rival The main event Of the
evening was ike dash Of cold
water compared 20 the sprfEhtIv
seminal and there IS about as much
chance fer Lewis TO meet Eddie
Johnson before the local bugs as a
contest between Jack Dempsey and
jimmy Wilde. Tlth-the clever FoH-
ser 81 is different proposition.
A Real Good one.
About this HaWkins-T asquez AZ
fair 81 was a plppin Of contest and
matchmaker James Erwin mich dis
appointed over the showing Of the
heailliner-iu name only--of the even
ing has the consolation Of knowing
that the fans realized what he was
I'D against and they saw one good
bout during the evening, anyhow.
TasQuez was the more clever Of the
two men but the form OF Hawkins
surprised everyone Virtually beaten
at the end O. the third round Dial
varied his tactics in the fourth and
won this Eessian and the fifth very
handily. BE came out with an en-
Iirely new pose and led the fighting
with a left nook varying with left
and right upperCuts. Dick Griffin,
behind Hawkins was the cause Of
this
Contrary 10 a report that gained
circulation among supporters Of Vas
