Jackie Crawford. The tide turned
when Thompson went into faster
company. Joey Maxim outboxed
him last December 8, Jimmy Biv-

NP)-Bill (Chicken)) Thompson
is dead. He died at Temple uni
versity hospital Tuesday night,
FIVE days after he took an eight
round lacing from 210 pound
Johnny Haynes Of New York at
Toppi stadium. Thompson had
spotted Haynes $50 pounds when
they went into the ring for his
last fight, the first since he was
severely beaten by Jimmy Bivins
in April at the ares here.
The fatal fight last Thursday
had been a one-sided and un-ex-
citing one. Chicken was on the
end of all of the telling blows ex-
cept in the 4th round when he top
pied the New Yorker for the
count of three.
Haynes stepped into the lead
again in the 9Th. Three seconds
before the bell in the final 9Th,
Thompson hit the floor. He was
counted out and taken back to his
corner. When he did not awaken,
the 21-year-old fighter was rushed
to nearby Naval hospital. Still he
did not respond to treatment. 1t
was here that DIR. Michael Scott,
eminent brain surgeon, was called
and Thompson was removed to
Temple university hospital. For
two hours, Thompson underwent
a delicate operation to remove a
clot from his brain.
After the operation, the fight
er's condition was called "fair."
Sunday, he slipped to the critical
list. He never regained conscious
ness.
Thompson, in the 1914 Diamond
Belt tournament, won the sub
novice weller title for the East
side AC as a pupil of Johnny
Hutchinson. He was knocked out
in his first pro fight by oJhnny
