HARRY WILLS IS WINNER INV BOUT
Negro Heavyweight Wins Technical Knockout Over
 Thompson

NEWARK. N. J., Nov. 5.--Harry Wills, New Orleans heavyweight title contender, technically knocked out Jack Thompson of Boston to- night in the fourth round of 12- round match at the First Regiment armory. Thompson's seconds threw a towel into the ring as he went down heavily for the second time in the round from battering attack to the head and body.
 For the first three rounds and most of the fourth Thompson withstood a terrific pummeling. He showed little effective offense himself. but seemed able to absorb the hardest shocks of Wills hooks and swings and come back for more.
 Wills rushed out of his corner in the fourth intent upon ending the battle. He soon had Thompson 'groggy with slashing rights and left to the head and ribs. A right uppercut sent the Boston negro down to als knees, and he took count of nine. He arose only to meet another whitening drive and reeled about the ring, but it re- quired fusillade of carefully timed punches before Wills was able to bring down his man. Referee Henry Lewis had counted three over the prO6traLe negro when a tOWel came hurling into the ring.
 It was a rough and tumble en- counter most of the way. Wills was guilty of questionable tactics at close quarters In the first and second rounds. while he numerically bat tered Thompson about the body. The latter was in constant retreat and hung on repeatedly.
 In the third. Thompson again took Wills hardest blows. wagging his head from side to side without rais- ing a glove in defense as his oppo- nent's blows rattled off his chin. Then for a brief session the Boston man rallied and drove Wills back. This offensive was short-lived, how ever. and Wills had his man hanging on at the bell. That was Thonipsons last furry. He was little less than chopping block for Wills in the final round.
 More than 12,0o0 fans witnessed the battle and gave Wills noisy greet inR.

WOODLAWN HI TO
 PLAY TWO GAMES
Junior ColoneIS To Play Games On Friday And
 Saturday

The Woodlawn Junior Colonels are essaying a big task this week. On succeeding days they will play high school teams here. Friday afternoon the Colonels will take on the Cal horn County High school at Berry field and will follow this game up Saturday afternoon by clashing with the strong Coffee High team of Flor ence, at Redwood field Saturday aft ernoon.
 This is one of the first instances in local history that an Alabama higlI school has taken on varsity teams from two high schools in succeeding days. Both schools will bring strong teams to Birmingham but the Coffee High especially will be represented by a hefty eleven. This team has de- feated several of the strong teams in North Alabama and comes here with a good record.
 To prepare for the hard task of trying to win two football games Tn two days Coaches Hood and Kelly have mapped out a hard course for the Colonels this week. Monday aft ernoon the Woodlawn delegation was sent through a fairly light workout with special attention to defects which were brought out in the game with the Howard Bullpups Friday afternoon at Berry field. The coaches hope to have an easy-running ma chine when the whistle blows for the start Friday and are going in to take both games.

M'GINTY OUTPOTNTS KELLY; REFEREE CALLS BOUT DRAW
Semi-Final Bout Turns Out To Be Healthier In B. A. C. Athletic Show - McGinty Puts Up Great Battle

What was scheduled as semi final bout turned out to be the head liner in the Birmingham Athletic clubs show Monday night in the club gymnasium. It was a slam-bang, man sized fight in which John Me- Ginty of Pratt City outpointed Bat tling" Kelly easily in eight rounds. The first round was a draw, the third went to Kelly and the last was a draw. McGinty won the others, de- spite Referee Max Scholder's draw decision, which was one of the rank est ever given in the local ring.
 Using a left to the chin that strengthened Kelly up on his rushing and a gruelling two-fisted body at- tack that doubled Kelly up time after time, McGinty battled through the entire eight rounds. leading the fight. Kelly was forced to clinch re- peatedly and that the affect of Mo stomach distressed him was easily apparent.
 McGinty solved Kelly's famed "cork screw" punch and the Battler was able to land it only once or twice during the first part of the bout. The first round was a we'll mixed frame, with neither fighter Ginty began using his effective left jab and his heavy blows to the stom- ach. In the third round of heavy slugging, Kelly landed several hard blows and took the round. In the fourth Kelly was avoiding might qinty's body attack. Kelly landed one telling blow on the jaw in the fifth and McGinty kept up his stom- ach attack. In the sixth the round was close, with both Kelly and Me Ginty landing heavy blows. The seventh was marked by Kelly's re- peated missing and his blows went wild with few exceptions. McGinty was keeping out of the way of his swings and ducking his blows to the head. In the final frame both boxers mixed 1t freely, with neither getting an edge.
 It was easily McGinty's fight on points and the Pratt City Irishman put up great battle against his more experienced foe.
 In the main bout the puzzle as to how Iron Man" Joe Nelson had boxed so long and never hit the mat was solved. With jaw we'll protected by hunched shoulders and his gloves when the occasion demanded, the ley and came out in good shape. The few blows Finley landed in each round gave him every round, except the first. which was draw.
 Max Scholder and Tom Lacey staged a hard-fought wrestling bout, in which Lacey downed Scholder two falls out of three. Lacey won the first fall with toe hold and Scholder won the second fall with an arm lock and a scissors, and Lacey ended the bout in the ninth round by throwing Scholder with a body scissors and arm lock.
