appearance of three boxers from that
city because they had forgotten the
formality of applying for permission.

to allow the boys to compete.
The finals of the lis and 13S pound
classes were contested by local boys only
owing to the elimination of the other
entries.
Gordon Munce, national heavyweight
champion, drew a bye and then stopped
Tom O'Brien of Boston when the latter's
seconds threw in the towel after forty
nine seconds of the first round. Munce
tried for a knockout, and after landing
just one solid right on O'Brien's jaw was
declared the victor.
Dan Gartin, the only Quaker entry,
national featherweignt champion, re-
ceived a severe jolt when Cuddy De-
marco of Pittsburgh was awarded the

marco landed solid let's and rights on
the champions jaw at will. The latter
was n tired boxer after the milling.
