Omaha daily bee., 1922-04-20

eoVbat from the guys who play
slap tag with each other 10 the
plain assault and battery type with
slaughter-house trimmings was dis
played at the city punch dispensary
and pleasant time was had by all.
Bud logan's showing against
the clever Shade was a pleasing one
and the veteran Omaha wcl,er gave
Just as neat an exhibition OF boxing
as could be expected, but he lacked
the punch TO pile up points.
Shade Sweet Hitter.
| Shade is sweet hitter and a
dandy boxer. The Californian has
piston-like left jab that found its
mark more than once on Logan's
map. Shade proved to be a hornet
during the 10 rounds he was in the
ring with the local lad and stung
BUD with some awfuh wallops.
During the latter rounds Of the bout
Logan was steel-cyed, but going and
chuck full OF gameness.
Logan was very much himself
during the first and second and dis
played defense that sort OF puzzled
the westerner. In the second stanza
Shade shot his left to Logan's eye
and soon the purple started trick
ling down the local lads face.
In the third session, David got
! through Busters defense and started
showering lefts and rights TO Lo-
gan's face and midsection. The
Omaha welter took all unmerciiul
body betting in this round, but never
once did he whimper or back away.
He was shooting a stiff left hook
to Shades jaw that was doing the
firm OF Flynn and Shade no good
at all. 49,.
At times too, Logan would lock
heads with Shade and give as good
as was sent in the close rallies. Be-
sides this, Shade was blocking we'll
and this shunted many OF Buddy's
best blows.
In the latter part OF the fourth
round, after Shade had crossed =
right and played a tattoo on Logan's
jaw with his left, the local boxer
started swinging his dukes i'll the
direction of one Mister Shade and
propelled them so fast that the west
erner started retreating. Logan
planted his left under Shades chin
ard then buried his right in his op-
ponent's mid-section. The clever
Shade looked puzzled as he strolled
to his corner at the end of the round
which went to the Omahan.
Socks Logan On Ear.
Shade got his light heavyweight
artillery guns to toting in the fifth
and before the round was many Sec
onds old, socked Logan on the ear,
splitting that members. He gave
Logan a stiff lacing, though the
Omaha man kept pins and fought
back, although Shade made him miss
quite often.
| III the seventh Logan staged his
best round. He beat Shade at his
own game in this session and de-
Tended himself in such fashion that
the Californian was unable to pile
up many points during the round.
Logan was best at infighting, sink
ing two right blows in Shades stom-
ach and crossing a right that caught
his opponent flush on the jaw.
Shade came on like ball of fire
in the eighth and ninth. He fairly
outfought Logan. The fast-moving
Shade soundly jabbed Bud, but wher
it came to rough work at close quar-
tiers, Logan held his own.
| Longan started the tenth by sock
irg Shade in the stomach. Dave
closed in and then cut lose two let's
to Logan's chin. He repeated and
then made Logan miss. Both boys
then missed and as Logan missed
another time. Shade shot his left to
Buds jaw which shook the local
lads head. Logan returned the
blow and both were fighting close
at the bell.
Referee Shea gave the fight to
Shade, and the verdict seemed to
| please all concerned. The Califor-
MIA lad was the class, and after all
that counts.
/ Roy Conley of Casper, Wyo., was
given the referees decision over
Archie Ammons of Marshalltown,
Ia, at the end of ten rounds.
Conley went after the Iowan like
man trying to kill a steer with a
pair of brass knuckles. Ammons
fought nobly to hold Conley at
arms length, but the swarthy boy
was as persistent as ticket-moocher
and mauled and battered Ammons
around the ring until if Archie's
face hadn't previously been consid-
erably spoiled, it would have been a
total loss.
Rozgall Wins.
In the seventh, eighth and ninth
rounds Ammons displayed some fast
footwork. stepping in and pecking
Conley on the nose and stepping out
again.
