SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. %. =
Young Corbett, swarthy Italian

A haggard-appearing Fields faced

tore into the champion with every
thing he had, and the result never
was in doubt. Both weighed lat.
Corbett won the first five rounds,
in the opinion of Lieut.. Jack Ken
nedy of the U. S. Navy, referee.
Fields, with a barrage of body
punches, won the sixth, but Corbett
had Fields wobbly in the seventh.
The eighth was even, and Fields
driving attack won him the ninth.
Corbett clinched the fight in the
tenth when he outslugged Fields.
Corbett's left eye was swollen shut
and his nose was a shapeless mass
when the fight ended and his hand
was raised. But he was in far bet
ter shape than Fields.
