ERTLE COLD IN
THIRD PERIOD
Surprise Sprung on Fight Fans at
Milwaukee Auditorium by Speedy
Victory of Briten.

Milwaukee, Wis. Jan. 30-Jimmy
Wilde's wee right arm shot through
the atmosphere OF the Auditorium
about the middle of the third round
last night and cracked, on the chin
of Mike Ertle Of st. Paul and the
show was over. 1t was as clean
and pretty a knockout as any fight
fan could care to see.
Ertle with his lights out" fell
to sitting posture, then toppled
over on his back where he remain
ed until the refere, had tolled of
the ten count which meant the first
knockout victory for the British fly
weight champion in this country.
Knockout a Big Surprise.
Ertle may not be a representa-
tive of bantamweight class in this
country, in fact, it was indicated
before the boys entered the ring by
the betting which favored Wilde by
something like ten to seven that
the bout looked like a winner for
the Britisher. But that Wilde
should topple the St. Paul boy in
such short order was q surprise
produced principally by the fact
that the Briton demonstrated he
packed a sure enough knockout in
his right hand.
Wilde's achievement is made
more notable in that it is the first
time Ertle has been punched into
the land of nod.
Two and one-half rounds were
ample for Wilde to show that hi
was master Of Ertle and in show.

How To Keep Young
AS You Grow Older

It Is possible to have q hale,
hearty old age. The body In youth
possesses more heat than the body
Of middle age or old age, because
the blood contains more oxygen.
It Is possible for middle aged and
older men and women to increase
the oxygen carrying capacity Of
their blood-not by pumping oxy-
gen into the lungs, but by supplying
the blood with the organic iron
which attracts oxygen Just As the
magnet attracts steel
Two warning forces red
blood cells and the white blood
cells are always contending in the
blood. They are the processes Of
building up, and tearing down.
During youth the hot, red blood,
vitalized with oxygen. enables the
building up process to overcome
the tearing down process, and the
tendency Of the body is all toward
growth and development.
As middle age approaches, the
two forces tend to equalize each
other, and the body retains it,
vigor and vitality.
But, with the coming u old age,
the victory Of the tearing down
process i manifested by the slow,
gradual decay Of the vital energiea.

ing It displayed boxing skill that
was a revelation to the fans.
Wilde Offsets Ertlo Punch.

Jimmy had just one thing to fear
and that was Ertle's right cross
but even as early as the first
round he showed that he had solv-
ed a way to knock the danger out
of that wallop. He did not cover
up his jaw, but resorted to clever
head slipping and when Ertle did
connect he found the target trav-
cling with the punch.
But all the time Wilde was slip
ping his head and prancing in front
of his opponent British Jimmy was
active with his own fistic weapons.
When Ertle essayed to left jab,
Wilde beat him to the punch and
did it so often that the crowd was
on the lookout for Jimmy to cross
over with his right hand. He did
cross several times but the punches
were a bit too high to do any SER
ious damage.
Wilde Has Shade In First.
The first round was demonstra-
ton of speed by Wilde although
Ertle did connect a couple Of wal
lops that carried steam. The Briton
never paid any attention to what
his opponent was doing ON attack
but forced the milling every sec.
ond and had a fair shade OF the
session. 4..
The beginning Of the end came
for Ertle in the second round after
being jabbed and right crossed fol
most of the round, Wilde shot {

1t was the last punch of the roun(
and Mike slipped into his chail
with a look of pain on his face.
Then came the third round
Wilde, working cody and with thu
precision of a mechanic. carried
Ertle around the ring trying tt
bring over his right. The chance
, came. Jimmy shot, and the figh
was over.
