Steadman Outpoints Hammering Howie

outclassed. Lewis caught him off bal ance with hard left and almost put the Frenchman through the ropes as the gong sounded for the end of the second round. In the third and fourth stiff right swings to the face staggered Thom- as, who fought back pluckily. Lewis kept pounding him the last two rounds and Thomas was bleeding from the nose and mouth at the end of the sixth round. It was Lewis fight nearly all the way.
 Levinsky was in splendid condition, and So was Carpenter. From the mid dle of the first round when the French man began to cut loose the outcome was inevitable. His blows were well deliv- cred and effective, while Levinsky's plucky returns were too light to cut any figure. Twice in the second round Car pentier sent Levinsky to the floor of the right with hard right crosses. During the third session Carpenter slowed up
 bit and seemed undecided as to what his next move should be. When he did start after his man, however, he used both
 hands powerfully and Levinsky, who all ways was credited with being able to | absorb punishment was visibiy weaken ing.
 In tho final round Carpenter simply | battered Levinsky into submission and
 when the battler fell almost through the | ropes in neutral corner he was unable to get up while Referee ErtIe counted ] him out. Lcvinsiy was badly punished while l Carpenter did not show a mark when he left the ring. | Carpentier with his manager and | seconds entered the ring at 9.55 and re- | cefved a welcome of hearty cheers, to which he responded by lowing grace fully several times.
