The first bout brought two mid- '| gets weighing all of 65 1bs. into the ring. These battling bantams hailed from the Boys' Training School, at Bowmanville, where in a show held there recently, Ted Usher was given the gold mredal, presented by Mr. Harry Price, of the Ontario Athletic Commission, for the most scientific boxing ais- play of the 13 events, Usher met Stan Campbell last evening, who held him to a draw, The little fellows made quite a hit with the crowd, and put up a clever dis- play for their size and experience, Campbell was slightly more ag- gressive, but Usher made up this deficiency with better hoxing. "Slim" Fraser, of the St. James A.C, knocked out Norm Attersley, of the Regiment, after 2 minutes and 15 seconds of fighting in the second round. Attersley started aggressively in the first frame, but Fraser's left was kept con- tinually poking away at his face, and stealing Attersley's thunder, he had Attersley down for two counts of nine before the fina count. Attersley took a full rest, in emulation of the king of them all,' Mr. Gene Tunney, The sec- ond round was packed with action with a little too much from Fraser to Attersley's liking, Fraser show- ed fine style at times, and com. bined it with unusual tenacity. Harry Bayes, of the Excelsior Club, Oshawa, met Jackie Goodall, of the Regiment, in place of George Fudger, who had previoys- ly withdrawn. Bayes put up a great fight, although he was too easily falling into clinches. In fact, the bout would have gone well, on a mat, with "Strangler" Lewis' tactics. Three rounds of slug fest were provided, however, and although iho decision was given to Goodall, the majority of the crowd, thought that it might just as easily have been called a draw. 'Scotty' Adair, of St. James A, C., obtained a quick decision over "Hughie" Smith of the Regiment, who put up a strong fight, in the first round, albeit he was slightly grogey as the gong sounded. Af- ter 45 seconds of fighting in the second round, Smith went down for 9, and then 10, Adair show- ed a powerful right, and was good defensively. The next fight was packed with action, when popular Gatenbhy of the Regiment, met George Platt, of the Classic A.C., at 118 pounds, the Ontario Regiment Boxing Club The presence of Larry much to the enthu- slasm of the patrons of the Hard- the ring, in the of the Ontario James AC, In a In answer to repeated "I'm like the bouts."

Platt forced Gatenby to the ropes frequently. and Gatemby was moticeably in distress as the gong sounded. Gat- enby was game, and came back with a rush in the second but Platt again 'met him with a bar- rage of blows. The third round was the best, with both boys striv- ing to land '"'on the buiton." Platt again had a slight advantage, and was given the decision. "Ossie" Barrie, obtained a we!l earned decision over "Red" Bot- tomley in the sixth bout, althoueh the bout was fast and exeiting to wateh. The redhead was popular with many in the erowd, and pr' up a game battle. Early in tho first round, Barrie drew bloo! when he caught "Red" on ti nose, and this troubled Bottoml¢v some during fhe fight. Both boys were willing mixers and warmed up as the fight progressed. They were both from the Regiment and were fighting in place of the scheduled Stocks-Tyrus encounter. Jimmy Leonard advanced furth- er in the 150 pound class when he outpointed J. 8S. MeDonald, of St. Jomes A.C. McDonald took a lot of punishment, and was down for a count of six in the third round when the gong terminated the bat- tle. It was a heavy sluggig fight throughout. Billy Putwaip of St. James A.C gave "Red"" Cardinal a lambast- ing, scoring a technical knockout after one minute and 5 seconds had elapsed in the third round. Cardinal hit the resin dust ahont every time he was hit, and took three counts of mine in the see- ond round, and was saved hy the bell on his fourth rest. The third round was a vepitition of the sec- ond, and referes Hersh Osborne, awarded the bout te Putwain. The 'last two bouts proved best op the ecard.
