McCarty wax master of Palzer in almost every round from the fourth. .Repeatedly the ex-cowboy called t<> P.il/- i - corner: "Why don't you stop it? Do you want me to kill him?" I".ii/it's manager paid no attention until the referee took matters into his own hands, stopping the fight, and saving the game lowa hoy from further punishment. The stopping of the battle met with tho approval of all, as Palzer had absolutely no chance. Random Notes Sartorial Note: Joe Bonds has got a new lid.
