the kidney and jaw. Both boys
pumped steady stream Of shots
with Binninger finishing strongest
to earn berth in the lightweight
finals. He will oppose another
Shelbyville scrapper, Marshall Alli-
son, who drew a bye.
Skeet Dickerson, Colonial A. C
featherweight, fought his first tour
ney bout, and after dealing knock
out punch, transferred to the open
class. An aggressive, dextrouS at
tack carried him inside the long
well-maneuvered left arm of Emmett
Longstaff, Oliver WPA, in the Sec
ond round for the finish. Following
his transfer, Dickerson drew bye
into the final round where he will
meet Bud Cottey, Oliver-WPA.
Cottey, winner of the 1885 Colder
Gloves bantam crown, stabbed hi'
way to a decision over Milton Bess
Negro, Bess A. c., in the semi-flnal
match last night. Bess also had
clever left-handed jab and drew
blood early in the bout, but there
was more snap to Cottey's punches

division will be decided on next
weeks card.
Furious action also was brought
out in the Novice Class, the win
ners of which do not compete al
Chicago, but establish prestige FOR
next year.
Soldier Loses Suggest
A good old-fashioned Suggest, one
of the highlights of the show, re-
suited in the match between Jimmie
Gustaffson, Oliver-WPA middle
weight, and Donald Buckallew, Fort
Harrison. The soldier, who slasheo
his way to pair of impressive vic
tories last week, opened a cut on
Gustaffson's right eye in the ini-
tial round. Jimmie rallied to take
a swapfest in the next canto, and
won the decision after bloody toe
to-toe slugging match.
Boastful and scrappy in last
weeks matches, the Messer twins
Elmer and Elwood-decided that 10C
pounds of courage is not enough
even in the smallest of the divisions
Each conceded victory in the first
round when unmatched by husk-
Ter Negro fighter, and decided to
fight it out at home.
Quickest finish of the tourna-
ment was registered by Bob Blue
South Side Turner welter, who fin
ished Howard Bulls, unattached, in
Is seconds.
Young Hutton Wins
Five knockouts, 10 technical
kayoes, IS decisions and one de-
fault whitfield the field down in the
Al matches on the card, which held
the attention of the fans for more
than five hours of almost continu-
Gus fighting.
Charles Hutton of Anderson
brother of the 1885 Open cham
pion, made his debut last night
with an assorted repertoire OF
punches, and after a minute of the
second round, Roy Ward, unat-
tached, was ready to call it quits
and lost a technical kayo verdict
Mike Sorba, broad-chested welter
from Eiwood, ran into tough as
signment and barely won over John
finder, u. S. Tire A. G. scrapper
