McLdrnin Knocks Out. ' Champ Singer, Third
 Round, Non-title Bout

NEW YORK CITY, N. Y., Sept. 12.-Jimmy McLarnin, the battling Irishman, last night knocked out Al Singer, lightweight champion, | in the third round of a scheduled 10 round non-titlee bout. | A volley of lefts and rights to the chin floored Singer, once for the count of nine. He had barely reach ed his feet, while McLarnin was doing cartwheels across the ring, when McLarnin returned and put over another right and knocked him down and out. The third rouno lasted minutes and 20 seconds. The first two rounds looked as if Singer would break the McLarnin jinx over champions as McLarnin was outboxed, outsmarted and out slugged as 25,O0O fans beloved in glee.
 Then Singer grew careless, and in an easy way he blocked McLar- nin's clouts and jabbed him off his balance with smart lefts. He tried to slug with McLarnin.
 Singer smacked right to Mc- Larnin's chin and stepped back tauntingly.
 McLarnin blinked behind two fists and then suddenly launched a left hook to the side of Singers head which really finished Singer.
 McLarnin crowded the softened Singer as he circled the ring.
 McLarnin crouched and was like a shuffling, cold, vicious killer stalking his prey.
 He caught Singer with both hands, one-two, one-two, one-two to the head and Singer crumpled to the floor.
 McLarnin cartwheeled toward his corner at the count of nine.
 Singer staggered to his feet, then stumbled toward McLarnin and missed McLarnin's chin.
 McLarnin measured with his left and drilled him clean to the chin with right
 Singer went down and stayed.
 McLarnin cartwheeled more.
 Singer weighed 1852 and McLar- min 140 pounds.
 The gate was $175,000.
 Singer was a to favorite.
