Billy Sets Fons Wild
In Beating ApostoIi
In Bitter Bottle
BY DREW MIDDLETON,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

NEW YORK, Feb. 1.-THE battle
of the year? You can have the TAX
ing of Barcelona. Well choose the
taking of Fred Apostoli in IS bloody,
bitter rounds by William Conn, the
fight that had everything.
There was cruel and vicious hit
ting. There was fancy footwork and
fancier headwork. There were mo-
ments when they stood and let go
with all they had as the crowd came
roaring to its feet and there were
moments when the snarling curses
of the fighters rose above the thud
of leather on skin.
Finally there was the supreme jest
OF the boxing gods. Conn, the win
ner, lay fiat on his rubbing table in
his dressing room. His eyes were
swollen, almost closed. There was
big cut under his right eye, a
smaller one under his left. He looked
utterly spent. And down the hall
Apostoli was stepping into his
shower, unmarked and smiling wryly
as his manager, Larry White bel
lowed, "1t's an outrage, we won that
fight"
Billy Is Crowd -Pieaser.
Few in the crowd of 1898 fans at
Madison Square Garden last night
thought so, though it had been close
all the way. The fans like Conn and
they probably will see lot OF him.
Mike Jacobs has large plans for the
Pittsburgh Irishman and probably
will take the first step toward set
tling the scrambled light heavy
weight situation by throwing him in
with Melio Bettina. the champion in
this State Last night he weighed in
at l67, seven pounds over the limit
for the middleweight division. which
Apostoli rules here and in California,
and six pounds above Freddy's
weight
Conn had a Pickering left hook
that Jared Fred off balance. He
had a fast right cross that shook
Apostoli and buckled his knees.
He had eight rounds on our card
with six for Apostoli and one even.
An incident that didn't last 80
seconds probably won the fight.
Midway through the second Conn
came out of a clinch with blood
streaming from a cut under his
eye.
Conn Stronger, Smarter.
And Billy had his Irish up! After
that it was Conn's fight. He sank
his left into Apostoli's body just
Under the heart. He beat him to
the punch with the same hand
and when the opening was there
there was that right cross. Apos-

who had tired at the end Of the
1O-rounder he won from Apostoll
in December, still was in there
firing with both hands. He
was growing stronger and getting

So Apostoli had only his courage

on in to take that left as a good
game guy must do.
