The proposal was made several
years ago but, except in the Won

plan was not adopted.

Buffalo Boxer Sends Feath-
erweieht Champion to
Floor Twice.

Buffalo. y. ". April 22.-Johnny
Dundee lost a decision to an ancicr.
rival last night when Rocky Kansas
outpointed him in ten rounds of heavy
slugging in which the double cham
pion was twice sprawled on the can
vas and several times in serious
trouble.
Dundee, worlds featherweight and
junior lightweight champion. entered
the ring at 1872 pounds. His titles were
not at stake. Kansas weighed in at
1874 1-2.
Rocky pushed the fighting from the
start. and his heavy right glove raised
a purple welt across Dundec's rios
where he beat ?. persistent tattoo in
the clinches. Kansas showed speed
that got his left jab through to Dun.
dee's jaw.
Only twice did Dundee attempt his
favorite trick of bouncing off thu
ropes. Both times he ran Into solid
rights to the stomach while yet in
mid-air. Rocky, apparently profiting
from experience, allowed Dundee no
room in front of the ropes TO get his
catapult under way.
