The bout was a swat fest. Early ir the first, Gatenby's eye closed and he could hardly see out of the optic, but despite this handicar he fought gamely, In the next frame, Cumming had it over Gat- enby and forced the latter into his corner, but Gatenby made a good come back and gave a nice account of himself. In the see: ond's final stages. Cumming was floored for the count of nine and he protested strongly that the blow was foul, but his argumen was not allowed. Gatenby's eye looked llke an egg in the third it was swollen so badly. 'This round was vastly @ifferent from the previous one, providing thrill: aplenty, Cumming really earned his decision in this round for h sent Gatenby to the floor thre times for the count of nine an on each occasion the loser eam back. At the sound of the be he was on the floor with the cour of six ringing In his ears. Both boys certainly deserve praise f« the exhibition they gave and the fans gave each a good hand clap at the finish. Boos and Cheers Only once did there seem to be a difference of opinion among the fans as 40 the winner and that was during the Olnk-Sweeney af- fair--a very close bout with Joe Sweeney getting credit over Kid Oink. Boos and cheers greeter the decision, Sweeney immediate- ly went on the aggressive at thc clang of the bell and sent numer- ous rights and lefts '{u. Oink's head and body and the latter came back strong, though rather low at times. There was little to choose between them, It was a pretty exhibition of boxing. Bath boxers drew blood In the second. Both hoys missed punches, but even at that it was a livelier round than the first, - The final was like the others with both boys mak- ing a nice showing, again giving the judges a hard task to decide. Storm's manager threw a towel into the ring at the end of the first round of the George Fudger Russel stormy contest, thus show- ing that his Toronto hoy was through. Fudger had it over the other lad in both build and' speed making a nice showing in every respect, Hard blows to the fac' took the joy out of the fight for the visiting boy and he wasn't feeling any too good at the end of the bout. Just before the bell rang he felt the floor for six counts, but managed to rise again only to receive a series of blows to the face, This hoy Fudger, has improved quite a bit since he last appeared before a local audience, One Thin Woman Gained 15 Pounds In 5 Weeks Men and women, weak, thin and miserable, are urged to put on weight and get back their health and strength with McCoy's Cod Liver Extract Tablets, One woman gained 15 pounds in five weeks and that's going faust enough for anyone, McCoy takes all the risk--Read this ironclad guarantee.

Our Gang COMEDY Yale vs Harvard wr &0hhe 4 LR "awAY, DECEMBER 8, 1927 Both weighed at '118 pounds. Scored One minute and 10 seconds in the second round was all that was required for Red Cardinal to take a knockout at the hands of A'Mat- to, a Toronto chap. The first round was an even af- fair, with little to pick between the boys. An "even-Stephen"--is the words to expwess it--for both swatted ome another in the initial round and they had the customers on their feet. It was so interest- ing that for a time it looked as though the bout would be a draw. The first round certainly was, Red was very good om his feet. Lefts and rights in series featured. That fatal second, though, came as a climax to a good fight. The Toronto boy seemed to hit a lot harder in this frame, and he prov- ed his stamina in the second when he sent a terribly hard stab to the body. Just as the referce called eight and nine, Red made a heroic effort to regain his feet, but: found it impossible. Neil Morrison cf Oshawa found that the more experienced Me- Gregor of Toronto was too good for him even though he managed to send the Queen's City repre- sentative into the third round be- fore allowing him to get the award. In the first round the spectatcrs were provided with some nice box- ing, though it was evident that McGregor had the edge, His blows were more deliberately dis- charged and his accurateness was marked, 'The Oshawa chap ham. mered a number of forceful wal- lops in, but they had little effect on the better conditioned Toron- to boxer, MeGregor made blood come to Morrison's face towards the end and when the bell rang, they were in a clinch, The second round again clearly demonstrated McGregor had the edge, The third made the Motor City boy groggy and a series of rights had blood flowing profusely from Morrison's face. Two More Sinkers Short, sweet, and snappy were the other two bouts on the card, There was that school day dis- pute, between Stocks and Peters, a needle contest, and also an extra measure affair between a chap named Stephenson and an- other boxer, Barrie, Serious in every respect was that bout between Stocks and Peters. The pair had been waiting for this chance for some time and last night when each entered the ring he had a determination to win and it was only after a dellh- erate attempt that one had to give way to the other. Bill Stocks sent Eddie Peters to the floor af- ter exactly one minute and three- quarters had elapsed. A right drive to the face did the trick. One minute and five seconds was all the time that {it took Stephenson to send Barrie down for the- count, A wallop to the solar plexus did the trick, Both fighters did well and the erowd thoroughly liked the short scrap. One of the head liners, if no: the main attraction, between Bil Adams and Red Lloyd, for the Regimental championship, did not materialize, as one of the princi- pals, Red Lloyd, failed to put in an appearance. However, not. withstanding the fact that this bout was "off" it was a mighty nice card and it looks as though the house will be packed nex time. E, A. Donald was referee, Jimmy Moffatt, Major A. F.

Chicago, Ills, Dec. 8.--Chicago is wooing the next heavyweight cham- pionship fight, in spite of a few ap- parent obstacles and the generally accepted view that this particular brand of fistic lightning seldom strikes twice in the same place, for business reasons, Much of the prospect of stagin, another title bout on the embatt soil of Soldier Field is built upon the prospect of a break between Tex Rickard and Gene Tunney, coupled with the champion's expressed desire to fight at least twice in defense of his crown in 1928. There are a lot of *ifs" in this situation. If Tunney sticks to his contract with Rickard and fights only once next year, the scene is 'more than likely to be New York, or perhaps Philadelphia. His opponent, in a one-fight programme probably would be | ack Dempsey. .

The ballyhoo, simultancously, for his appearance in another fight here will hit a" few strident im, Mullen, Abe romoter, 'made 'a. ourishing gestures. There will be a "huddle" of the leading figures, talk of terms, and an earnest expression of desire on the part of the champion to return to the scene of his last triumph. Fresh fuel for the "long count" controversy that raged a the hight here has been provided by the publication of a new series of articles. under Dempsey's signature, charging that he was discriminated against by the referee. It is a variation of the complaints which Dempsey and his bat fight. manager, Leo boxing powers aiter the fight, The notion prevailed after the bat- tle here that it would take some time for Middle Western fandom to recov- er from the shock of $40 "ringside seats that had barely a hailing ac- quaintance with the actual ringside, or to get out the telescopes again for a long-distance glimpse of the com- from the no-famous "rim-side" locations, where it cost $5 for the experiment of seeing what could be seen an eighth of a mile from the Perhaps, as some of the experts with the } rh igars been % * A a ever before have .
