 the part of the athletes to multiply by several figures the actual sums they
 have earned, when boasting to friends and promoters of their ability as draw ing cards, has said to have added to
 their present embarrassment in the face
 of possible prosecution.
 Not only are the grapplers themselves worrying, but the promoters also are said to be cudgeling their brains to re- member dates and figures. Although
 the wrestling season in Chicago has not | been particularly lively several pro- | motors are said to have done enough buRness to bring themselves we'll with

 performance will never be able to fill
 the gap in their young lives.
 It all started when Frank Chestain
 and ". Hanna. both Birmingham boys,
 stepped into the ring for the first pre- liminary in the 115-pound class. There was class to every movement of this pair of clever boxers Chestain won he decision in the third after they
 had finished two rounds with the honors about even.
 Then came the surprise of the eve ming.
 Ashton Danza. a little runt from the L<t oung Mems Gymnastic Club, stepped i into the arena to face John Boardman, Ia Camp Taylor athlete. This was an. Eother 115-pound match. M For about two minutes it was ham
 mer-and-tongs affair. and then. like a belt from the blue. he Crescent City boy swung a wicked right-hander, catching the soldier under the jaw. |.when he dropped as 1T he had been ['sandba gged. When Boardman had |.feen assisted to a chair and given time to ponder he agreed that what had |Just happened was amply sufficient Danza got the decision.
 The third preliminary merely served to increase the fast growing excite ment around the ringside This was in the 125-pound class be- |tween Dewitt Alfred a Bessemer boy and E. O'IIara. New Orleans Alfred is |barely out of knee pants. while his op- Eponent was bit huskier and had the apparent advantage ,n height. In the first round the decision would have been a draw but it was evident from the cat-like movements of the young boxers that there was some lively fun in the distance. The second round showed speed, with G'Hara doing some real slugging, landing a pair of particularly vicious |uppercuts on Alfred. The Bessemer
 toy, however. seemed to have all the
 endurance he needed for the occasion
 and stood the punishment without grimace.
 Tn the third Alfred began to redeem h m sesf,F o'Hara slowing fatigue. { The judeesf were unable to decide and called for the fourth round. The Fourth was O'Hara's Waterloo. His back with renewed vigor and landed .some vicious punches around OHara's iaw. O'IIara was taken by surprise at
 Ailrsd's recuperative powers and was unable to dodge the blows that fell thick and fast. Even before the gong sounded the crowd was cheering All ref as the winner.
 A. Guillot, 10spounder. fighting in the 115-pound class, won out over F. Hanna, Birmingham, by staging a won derful third-round comeback. The first two rounds went to Hanna on points, but in the final session the New Orleans boxer scored heavily, taking the decision.
