greatest pugilistic feats ever staged
an this section of the country. The
participants we're two local pilgrims
known as stBo" and Shore" lima
Campbell promoted the fracas there
by taking the place of Tex Richard,
who can take care of only one scrap
at time and who is now absent from
the community. The rounds were as
follows: First round-At the clang
of the bell, "Shore. hoped to the
center of the ring and swung a wild
right to where "Bo's" head should
have been. "Bo," however, was mo-
where to be found and thus the first
round went to ashore" on points.
Second round-"Bo" appeared and
warming up to the occasion went
round and round his burly opponent
and won on points, foot work being
considered his means of defense.
Third round A hot debate was
staged and altho his colleague was
a "bear" on the negative the affirma-
tive was upheld by "Shore" who was
victorious by several points. The
thermometer dropped several degrees
at this stage of the game and the
victor hastily donned his overcoat.
Fourth round Having slightly re-
covered from the strenuous treatment
received at the hands of the worthy
ashore" "Bo" seeks to recover his
lost reputation and takes the often
siye, swinging wicked right to
Shores solar plexus, slightly up
setting his equilibrium. This wasn't
due. however, to the blow, as it was !
clean miss, but due to the vacuum
created and thereby taking his breath
away. Thus the round was won by
s'Bo."
Fifth round-This round consisted |
chiefly of summing up the pros and
cons Of the question and as viewed
from the audiences standpoint, which
consisted chiefly Of BARRIERS and act
resses, was a total failure and failed
to add great deal to the merits of |
the occasion. Each pubilist declar-
ed himself high winner and went his
happy way unhampered-
