GARDEAU WINS
10 ROUND BOUT
WITH MULKEY

A large crowd of fight fans, the
| largest that has attended a boxing
smoker in Salem since the time oi
the Elks smoker, saw ''Dubs ;
Mulkey, of Salem, get the worst OF
ten round scrap with Billy
Gardeau, Of Boise, Friday evening.
Although Handicapped by weight
and reach Mulkey never gave up,
although on several occasions 1t
would have been easy for him to
have taken the count. In the first
round he took the count of nine
three different times. Again in
the seventh he went down for two
and again for nine. The last time
that he hit the canvas was in the
ninth when the gongsrang at the
count of seven. Although hurt, he
was not out and 1t was evident
that he was using the precious
seconds as they were tolled off by
referee Tom Louttitt, OF Portland,
to get his wind.
About the only way that Dubs
could reach Gardeau was to rush.
His opponents arms were so long
that to fight at close range would
have been disastrous so there was
invariably clinch. Time after
time Gardeau held Dubs off with
his long left and then pasted him
with a hard right. The only
rounds in which the Salem man
showed better than his opponent
were the third and possibly the
eighth. The, second and fourth
were about even. The rest were
Gardeau's from a slight to a wide
margin.
The six-round semi-windup be-
tween Phil Bayes, of Salem, 129
pounds, and Jimmy Anderson, Til |
lamook, 12S pounds, was one Of
the best matches on the card. The
two started out at a fast clip and |
kept 1t up throughout the fight |
SO that there was not dull sec
ond in the whole match. Bayes
was getting the better of the ex-
'hanges and several times he could
have won via the knockout route
had he had the steam. Anderson IS
best round was in the fifth when
he tried to even up the points but
The way that Bayes beat him to
he punch in the last canto made
ven draw impossible. Louttitt IS
1ecision for Bayes was well re-
'eived and right.
The four round match between
Bill. Hunt, Salem, and Ed Boat
fright, Salem, both at 100 pounds,
vas a good draw and the decision
vas popular with the fans. Boat
'ut a nice sinner on Hunt s left
'ye but it didn't seem to bother
great deal. Being heavies, the
wo were not so fast as those in
he rest of the matches but the
way they went at it when they
I'D mix pleased the audience.
Fenton No Match for Carroll
Jimmy Fenton, Of Portland, 1875
ounds, substituting for Buz
elliott, of Salem, was no match
or Johnny Carroll, of Grants
'ass, 1873 pounds, and he was put
lown and out about the middle
Il the second round. Although
arroll S weight was announced as
80 he looked like 150 would
ONE a lot closer Anderson was too
nXious and carried the fight. All
;arrol had to do was to stand
ack and beat his opponent off. A
traight right to the Jaw ended
he bout.
The four round exhibition be-
ween the Fox midgets, of Inde-
endence, opened the card. With
areful oversight these two
rothers ought to be head liners in |
or years. 6
The matches were carried out
n good shape and much credit is
ue the promoters for the way
icy started the season. A number
! women with their escorts were
