LOGAN ON THE FLOOR.

Logan started off well, and for the
Ilrst three rounds he outpointed Rivers
by the proverbial mile. But in the
FOURTH Rivers apparently realized that
the tide was going against him, and
he tore into Shifty with both hands,
RIVERS grabbed Logan by the back of
me neck with his left, and then rained
rights to Shifty's head which soon had
Logan groggy and almost out. Rivers
tried Vainly to put over the finishing
punch, but was unable to land, and
Logan came out of the CORY fourth still
able to retain his feet.
Logan had learned how to get loose
from Rivers grip, and although Rivers
grabbed him many times around the
neck during the remainder of the fight,
Shifty slipped out INC tantalized his
opponent with a left jab, Rivers was
ployed in fighting Logan, and the as
sembled fight fans didn't approve of
his deadlock he had in effect in the
fourth. 1t was Rivers only chance,
and when he lost that, he lost the fight,
He landed but rarely on Logan. while
Logan shot over his left any time he
chose, rarely missing. Logan's mar
gin was so wide at the end of the
eighth that it was hardly necessary to
render a decision. Shifty had seven
out of the eight sessions to his credit,
with Rivers having only the fourth.
The Monday mill marked the fifth
time Logan and Rivers have met, with
Logan having won each fight.

trail of cold ones behind him in the last
year-since he re-entered the ring,
doesn't worry his followers. Johnny al
ways has taken care of his hands and
avoided a knockout except when nee
essary. His speed usually has been
enough. But everyone knows he car
ries the k. o. wallop handy.
Valger's followers are frank to ad-
nit that so far Valger has never shown
that he car hit hard. With all his
speed his blows are light. Valger, too,
fights from a position which leaves
him open at times to a man with a fast
deadly right hand. Kilbane carries
that kind of a right paw. Whether
or not Kilbane can land that right re-
mains to be seen.
Kilbane will be at a disadvantage in
one way, Because it Is a short fight
and because Valger has nothing to
lose, the FrenChman can afford to wade
into Johnny and lead the fight from
bell to bell. If Benny starts the rush
ing game about the only thing Johnny
can do is to get set as quickly as pos
sible-if it is possible-and end the bout
or beat Valger at the boxing game.
If Kilbane wins handily on points
or by a knockout, Benny will join the
list of lads who have called Johnny
''fraid cat" and then entered oblivion.
George CLANCY is among those.

Cans is of much the same type, but is

Cans is a favorite for several reasons,
but mainly because he knows his place
and has never attempted to break
through. Another reason is because no
lightweight in the game has a better
left hand. He has lost the fingers from
his right hand and uses the nub but
very little.
