retired. Then came Mogridge's only
pass and a pair of doubles, one of
them a rank fuke.
Expectations regarding the caliber
of contest between two such ac-
complished boxmen as the stars of the

fully borne out.
Collins registered the first hit. a
single over second. with two away in
the opening frame. The same king
