FIELDS LACKS K. 0.
PUNCH IN VICTORY
0utpoints Cans DecisNeIy,
but Passes Up Chances
for Early Win.
BY HERBERT w. BARKER,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

n YEW YORK, February 16.-Jackie
Fields, a fiSticuffer's idea Of
VI perpetual motion, has begun
L an Eastern invasion with
another victory over Baby Joe
Cans, negro battler from Fields own
home town of Los Angeles.
Boring In with both fists flying at
all times, Fields battered out a decisive
triumph on points over Cans in a 10
round match in Madison Square Gar
den last night.
The official verdict gave Fields the
l47-pound championship of Los Angeles,
strengthening his position as the leading
contender for Joe Dundee's welter-
weight crown and toga.
Outweighing the negro by 512 pounds,
Fields appeared certain to win on a
knockout as early as the second round.
He had Cans stunned and Keeling mid
way through this session, but apparent
~ didn't know what to do with him
now that he had him. It was the same
story In the third round when looping
overland right followed by left hook,
Fields best weapon, had Cans holding
on desperately. Try as he might, Fields
could not finish his man. After that,
Jackie had no more of the well known
golden opportunities to send the crowd
of some $4,000 home early.
Cans Flashes Little.
Cans, apparently more concerned
with staying the limit than with any
thing else, showed momentary flash
of his usual form in the fourth round,
which he took by a wide margin. Stop
ping Fields headlong rushes with left
lab, Cans shot over jolting right hand
punches to his white rivals jaw, but
Fields took them all and came back
for more.
Both were tired under the fierce pace
and there was little action in the next
five rounds Fields never quit trying but
his busy fists mauled the Negro around
rather than hurt him particularly. At
that, Jackie took the fifth, seventh and
eighth rounds with the sixth and ninth
even.
Cans did his best fighting in the tenth
stanZa. Apparently the fresher OF the
two, he Side-Stepped all OF Jackie's wild
charges and clipped the white boy on
the chin with right hooks as he went
a doubt, but it could not make up for
the overwhelming lead Fields had piled
up In the first nine rounds.
Five Rounds to Fields.
Although small chorus of booes went
up when the official verdict was an
nounced, there seemed no question but
that Fields had won by a wide margin.
The Associated Press score sheet gave
Fields five rounds, Cans two, with three
even.
Fields showing was a disappointment
to some Eastern observers. His failure
to knock out a man he outweighed by
almost half dozen pounds when the
time seemed ripe was not calculated to
boost his stock in the welterweight
market.
