He gave away 36 pounds to George Taylor and the two of them mixed it up for two twoâ€"minute rounds that were a treat to the crowd. To one who has seen both Watts and Johnâ€" son give their twoâ€"round exhibition inâ€" At this point the bill turned into one of science and ring generalship. There was a few moments wait when "Dutch" Henry Johnson was seen apâ€" proaching the ring from the dressing room, accompanied by one of his sparâ€" ring partners, George Taylor, of Sasâ€" katchewan, and their galaxy of seconds and trainers. "Dutch" had arrived a few hours previously by motor from Kirkland Lake for this special twoâ€" round Introduction Exhibition bout. It was "Dutchie‘s‘" first ring appsearance in Timmins since his twoâ€"year sojourn in the States. "Dutch" was feeling"fit and impressed the crowd with his apâ€" Leonard Wadsworth and Wilfred Barrette fought three twoâ€"minute rounds, Wadsworth winning the deciâ€" sion on points. For a snappy hard hitting, fast and exciting novice bout the fourth bout billed, the Jack Robinâ€" sonâ€"William Shalest three twoâ€"minute round setâ€"to was awarded the iron studded boxing mitts. Even yet about 50 p.c. of the patrons figure that Robinâ€" son should have gotten the decision for being the more aggressive, alâ€" though the judges awarded the deciâ€" sion to Shalest, and the judges ought to know. The final novice bout of the Empire Day bill was when Eugene Laâ€" porte met Walter Craik. Laporte enâ€" tered the ring at 143 pounds and Craik at 151 pounds. The bout went three twoâ€"minute rounds. While Laporte gave away weight it is to his credit that the judges‘ decision was a draw, although neither of the two boys seemâ€" ed to extend themselves and certainly Laporte was not in the same fighting mood as a week previous in his first novice appearance when he won the decision over Jack Morris | Smiling Douglas Cripps and Mart \Banning were hoisted into the ring at i8.25 p.m. The boys went two threeâ€" minute rounds and Cripps won a close | decision. Cripps is 12 years of tips the scales at 74% pounds and is a descendant of the famous fightâ€" 'ing Cripps of old English fame. The Ikid is a credit to the name and packs a punch in either mitt. The Harold Johnsonâ€"Vivian Walâ€" lingford postponed bout was next on the bill. The bout went three rounds and Johnson was awarded the deciâ€" sion. Johnson shows that style that goes to make up a finished boxer. siders was taken up by one of the ocâ€" cupants of the rush side seats who started in a iow drawl to recite "Twas a balmy summetr‘s evening,â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"a goodly crowd was thereeâ€"â€"â€"â€"â€"" but at this point there was a barrage of sharp and successive explosions heard from Moneta way when our Italian citizens started to celebrate Empire day with a bang and the elocutionist was drowned out in his efforts to reâ€" cite the "Face on the Barroom Floor." At this point, the Timmins Citizens‘ Band with a touch of comedy let loose with the old time selection "Gone Forever." Pat McGuire, Glasgow Longshoreman, Lives up to Repuâ€" tation as Hard Hitter and Able to Take Them at Event Here on May 24th. Victoria Day Bouts Wonderful Success. All Set Now for June 3rd. Arthur Leonard Fights With Broken Wrist in 4th Round 15 p.m. the attention of the ring was taken up by one of the oc Ontario nard takes the laurel for he fought the whole of the fourth round with his left and suffered untold pain with the broken right wrist. McGuire evidentâ€" ly figured Leonard had hurt his hand as he seemed to ease off in the fourth. It was a noâ€"decision bout and being the final bout of the evening‘s bill left the audience in a fully satisfied humour. Taking the whole evening‘s bill into consideration it was one that was worth double the cost of admittance at least If it is any criterion of the coming bill of June the 3rd., there should be one sweet evening of entertainment for the fightâ€"loving fans of the camp reâ€" gardless of price. There is more truth than poetry in the comment heard that when "Lap" puts anything on he puts it over big and gives every one more than their money‘s worth. The feature bout of the bill was fillâ€" ed when Arthur Leonard, exâ€"Welterâ€" weight of the British Army who fought at Buckingham Gate on command of our present King George the Fifth, "Handsome‘ ‘ Pat McGuire the light heavy Glasgow Longshoreman Champion. Leonard needs no introâ€" duction to the fightâ€"loving fans of the camp and is known to live up to his reputation of a clean, fast. scientific [poxer on every cccasion. In cight years Leonard has won all decisions with his opponents in this camp and won them without exerting himself. Arthur himself however claims that Pat McGuire is the hardestâ€"hitting and fastest light heavy he has yet met in this camp and thinks that while Pat has a style all his own that he could afford to give weight to some of the heavies running from 200 to 210 pounds and win the decision. As for Pat Mcâ€" Guire, he picks them up about three inches from the canvas and is not conâ€" tent with plucking them one at a time and when they connect they are felt and the crowd hears them. There is no lost motion about Pat‘s punches nor in his way of delivering them. True they start with the open glove but when they connect the fist is closed with the grip of a vice and the smash feels like an eighteen pound ham. All who have seen Leonard‘s previous performances know that he can hit and the ones that have taken a chance to be on the receiving end know that there is sting to the blows, but if any of the old timers keep a diary of notable events, get out the old pencil and mark down on May 24th, 1929, that Arthur Leonard, the Porcupine Panther, broke his wrist in an upper cut that connectâ€" ed with Pat McGuire‘s chin and that Pat McGuire "himself" paid no attenâ€" tion whatever to the matter at hand. It was in the third round that Leonard played the ropes and McGuire rushed in with a crouch, Leonard wound up an upper that would put most heavies out for the count and connected with Pat‘s chin but evidently Pat did not bother with matters of that kind and on went the fight. For gameness Leoâ€" MAN FOUND DEAD LOCKED IN SHACK NFAR MATHESCN Fire Rangers Discover Body of Joseph Fontaine. Apparently Unfortunâ€" ate Man was Frozeon to Death ]While Trumble is fast and a hard hitâ€" |ter he has nothing on "Frenchy‘"‘ Morâ€" ris. When one takes a punch at l“Frenchy's" body there is nothing but chest there. He is not built down it is 'all around the shoulders and any time one wants to see foot work watch ‘"Frenchy‘" for a round or two. It was one sweet fight from start to finish and althougn only an exhibition had the crowd on their toes from start to finish. Both the boys spend three nights a week teaching the art to the younger school boys and certainly have helped in a major way in bringing tae art of boxing to the high point of favour it presently enjoys not only with the school boys but with the older men of the camp. Despatches this week from Matt troductory bouts there is not a bit of doubt that when these two boys meet on June the 3rd, at the Timmins skatâ€" ing rink, that it will be the supreme boxing event of the history of the Porâ€" cupine camp and moreover it can‘t be anything else but either man‘s fight. "Dutch" and his partner, got a big hand from the crowd when leaving the ring. THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO The Northern News last week says: "Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Elkins, of Timâ€" mins, are visiting Mr. Elkins‘ parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. Elkins, Haileybury." "Fontaine had no relatives that the police can locate. He owned two farms but lived a lonely life about five miles south and back of Shillington in what is practically bush. MacWood made the discovery of death when he got through the broken window looking for something to make tea in." "The hardships encountered by the provincial police have often been reâ€" lated and this is another instance. Through a blinding snow storm with a swollen river to ford the remains were brought out in a wooden box roughly put together by Constable Reevely, to Shillington where burial took place. "He attempted to light a fire. Eviâ€" dence was found that he had emptied the oil lamp to secure oil to light the fire but he was unsuccessful. It is the opinion of the police that frozen and exhausted he laid down on the bunk where he was found frozen to death during the night. "Although he had given out word to his nearest neighbour, about 300 yards distant, that he was going to Kapusâ€" kasing he had locked up his shack and when he returned found that the key to the padlock was inside the shack. Cold and numb in temperature of 25 below zero be broke a window and got into the shack that way. | "The last person to see Fontaine alive was A. Brightwell who gave Fonâ€" taine a lift from Matheson to Shillingâ€" ton. Fontaine had been to Matheson to get a cheque which he expected at the bank. There was no cheque so Fontaine decided to go back to the shack. ‘"The discovery took place on May 24 and Provincial Constable J. W. Reevely accompanied by J. W. Grummett, corâ€" oner for the district journeyed through a snow storm and an overflow of: three feet of water on the road from the Grindstone River to get to the shack, where the ramains were. "In a shack padlocked on the outside in the township of Curry, Joseph Fonâ€" taine, a farmer well known in Taylor township, was found dead by A. Macâ€" Wood, a fireâ€"ranger for the Hawk Luke Lumber Co., and a Government fireâ€" ranger, named Hannah. PFontaine had been dead since January 2 and his face and hands had been eaten away by weasels and field mice. tell the following sad story of how a farmer was found frozen to death in his shack.
