DUNDEE GIVEN GOOD
BEATING BY KANSAS

BUFFALO, ". Y. April c2-Johnny
Dundee lost decision to an old foe
when Rocky Kansas outpointed him
in ten rounds of heavy slugging, in
which the double champion was twice
sprawled on the canvas and several
times in serious trouble.
Dundee, world featherweight and
junior lightweight champion. entered
the ring at 1872 pounds. His titles
were not at stake. Kansas weighed
in at 13412.
Rocky pushed the fighting from the
start, and his heavy right glove
raised a purple across Dundee's ribs,
where he beat a persistent tattoo in
the clinches. Despite his weight.
Kansas showed speed that repeatedly
got his left jab through to Dundee's
jaw.
Only twice did Dundee attempt his
favorite trick of bouncing off the
ropes. Both times he ran into a solid
right to the stomach while yet in
midair. Rocky, apparently prof1ting
from previous experience, allowed
Dundee no room in front of the ropes
to get his catapult under way.
