Dave Shade Loses Decision.
The defeat of the clever Dave
Shade at Boston recently by the
veteran Eddie Shevlin came as a
great surprise to fight fans all over
the country.
Shevlln for years has been fav-
ori,e down New England way. Seven
or ght years back his admirers
thought he had a chance to win
the lightweight title. However, Ed
die proved bit of an in-and-outer,
and the impression prevailed that
he was on the downward grade.
Several years ago he practically
gave up the fight game as a liveli-
hood He took a position as in
structor in boxing at Dartmouth
College and was referred to by the
student body as Prof" Shevlin.
Only Two Reverses.
Boston decisions are not always
in keeping with the work of the
fighters. Some time ago a referee
retired because his decision caused
such a rumpus among the experts
Possibly Shade deserved a better
fate.
Shevlin's victory over Shade is
only the second time that the Cali
fornian has been on. the short end
OF a decision since he started box
ing over four years ago.
