The Navy team ran the score TO 10

some fouling gave Mckee a chance 10

and unusually fast passing, but were
weak on shooting, with the exception
Of G.. MeenAn, OF 60 visitors. Man

some bruises on his cheek, one Of them
from his recent encounter with

the champion, Is supposed TO be q

Lynch is still as dangerous as ever.
He still possesses that vicious right
swing that has bowled 90 many fighters

action that wicked left jab. This Is
the weapon that is most likely TO
bother Midget Smith on Friday night.
