If the room is entered during hours

to score a Knockout.
He weakened during the next three
rounds. Finnegan holding him even in
the seventh, and outpointing him in the
eighth and ninth. Herman gained his
second wind in the final round and again
set out to knock out Finne2an. The lat

round, made Herman miss often.
Finnegan gained a commanding lead in
the early rounds. He outpointed Herman
in the first and second by a wide margin
tut lost the third. In the fourth Finne-
gan slowed up the fast moving Herman
by a rapid fire two handed attack. A
right to the face and let to the body
sent Herman to the ropes in this round.
Herman was the aggressOr in the fifth
