The fact that Nuxated Iron is today

DUNDEE LOSES
RING TITLE To .
BERNSTEIN
Two Newspapers Object, But
Majority of Opinion Favors
Decision.

NEW YORK, May 31.-Although
two newspaper critics openly de.
clared that Johnny Dundee was
made the victim of a bad decision
at the Velodrome last night, the
majority Of expert opinion leaned
to the belief that Jack Bernstein
honestly earned the verdict that
carried with 1t the junior light,
weight championship.
Bernstein suffered a knockdown
in the third round from left to
the jaw, but arose at the count
of nine to carry the fight to the
veteran in many of the succeeding
rounds. He was given credit for
winning five of the rounds, with
four going. to Dundee and the rest
being even.
The new champion has jumped
from obscurity to fame within a
year. He is twenty-five years old
and was born in New York. His
real name is John Dedick.

Luis Firpo Is In Line
To Make Money In
Few Months

Luis Firpo is in line to make
more money in a shorter space
of time than any of his long
line of ring predecessors. And
he will not have to depend on
American promoters to do it.
If he is successful in his elirni-
nation bouts, which lead the
way for title bout with Demp-
sey, Firpo, it is understood, will
recommend holding the bout in
the Argentine. Down there they
seem to be unusually anxious to
pay high prices for fight
tickets.
They also have an arena
which will seat 100000 specta-
tors, and with no limit to the
price of the ringside seats the
receipts can easily top the
amount which the fight would
draw in this country.
