 The Pyrenncs woodchoppcr cut down Tom Hcency. New Zealand oak in ten rounds at Madison Square Garden last night with the same bruising, batteriug attack that smotherod knute Hansen, Wisconsin Dane, in his opening tourney battle
 Although the Basque noored 1Iecn ey for Q moment in the first round he could not keep hir} there, despite furious rally in the closing sessions that showered the New Zealander under leather deluge,
 Hconoy, displaying mora tech niquc than his colorful foe, sprayed Pauline with right hand shots as tho Spaniard swept in with his wide open left hook attack. But the Basque's splendid stamina, despite the furious pace, kept him swarming in as trr fight wore on until the left hook at tack had so weakened Hceney that he had nothing left to confront Paul limos final rally. Hocncy was tired and badly battered at the close al- though his punches still held jolt ing power
 RingsiGe critics gave Pauline six of the ten rounds and Hecnoy four, but vote Of the referee in the Span iard's favor was necessary to brcal; the deadlock of the two judges. Pau limo weighed la9 to 193 F for Hcon- cy and 1l,on0 fans crowded into the arena for the last Of Richards indoor tournament clashes.
