Little Bits of Sport

graceful style OF Farrell. Tom
ORourlze thinks Jack tried to ape
Marty. Dempsey did.
Not only that. but Jacks condition
was not what you'd call wonderful
He was paler than q corn muffin He
seemed TO lack pep and ginger. Re
wa strained TO death Like Jim Cor

he had, he wanted something else
COrbett once made Jeffries look like
a sucker for tWenty-three rounds but
fell from a left TO the Jaw. he fig
ured that n he could make himself
strong man he'd knock Jeff still
He was matched with JEFF for the
second time and trained with heavy
iron weights heavy sandlbags and the
like he built himself a swell set OF
muscles
When they met IN the ring. the
crafty, jabbing. tantalizlng Corbett OF
yore was gone, Instead We saw a
leadeu-legEed COrbett unable 70 get
out OF his own way.
Jeffries stopped him in ten rounds.
The Rabbit Punch.
Dempsey used the deadly rabbit
punch 10 finish off BIZ Brennan with.
The rabbit punch IS a blow TO the
back OF the neck at the base OF the
skull When rabbits are killed, they
are nit with a stick on the back o.
the neck in Just such a manner
The blow was named thus because
Of that fact.
The punch is legitimate. but feared
by fighters
Years ago Jack Kearns took
Milburn saylor to Australia and
saylor won five or six fihts in a
row with knOckouts by using that
punch. Boxing authorities In Aus
trnlia passed a law declaring IL a
foul blow.
sayIor was an adept In the use
OF the cIub-like blow. No one
could even iniitnte him With that
punch taken away from him he
wasn't quite so successful
Jess Willard is another man who
uses the rabbit punch. At close quar-
tiers he can reach around and sock an
opponent on the back Of the neck
without trouble.
There was some discussion about
the punch before the Dempsey VIII
lard quarrel at Toledo. Some thought
it unfair, while others insisted that
It was quite legitimate. Willard
finally announced that he would not
use It In the fight with Dempsey and
things cooled off. He didn't have a
chance 10 use IL, anyway.

Tom O'Bourke, the Femeram

Dempsey was trying TO initiate

When you stop TO think OF IT, Demp-

Instead OF blocking, as he had done
before, Jack seemed TO favor the

Jack would shift his head from side
