The second game of the twin- bill was by far the better game of ilhae day.

Winning only one bout out of four, Cape Bretoriers received 1 merry welcome eat the Sporting Club Satinday night in a boxing card staged at the local rum palace. m the Main event, Danny Mocormac, after losing the first two rounds to Pordem smith of Sydney, rallied to punch out a. Judges’ decision at the end of a. bitterly-fought 10- round contest. Farfmmhisbatintlieflrsttw heals as Smith won clearly Mc- Gorniac started his comeback in the third. He won lice round but was held even in the next two. However’. in the sixth and seventh the Souris Boy using his left. hand with telling effect had a clear mar- gin over his rugged Cape Breton Dlifponent. In the Eighth Smith ocuning out punching had Mc- Cormac in distress practically all the way but in the last round, Mc- Cannac once a.g~ai'n displaying the courage that he has been noted for rallied to take the round by a shade. The iotvh was a slugfwt all the way. Both Smith and MoC0rmac came out seeking knockouts but al- though Smith had a. decisive edge in the round, neither fighter had enough left to knock his opponent to the canvas. There were no lcnockdowns during the rugged scrap: Eacih slipped to the canvas on one occasion but were up with- out a coun-t.

Kid Nickerson fighting in the semi-final B88-inst. Hemry I-Iolm, had too much boxing experience for his opponent. Nickerson credited with wining five of the six rounds made effective use of a damaging left jab all through the fight to earn a. unanimous judges‘ decision. 'I'here was little doubt about the out-

In a bristling sensational ldirninery fight. Johnny Corbett ofmllned up the only Cape Breton win when he took a six-round de- cision over Mark Clayboume. Cor- bett one of the smoothest boxers to be seen here in a. long while, had a clear edge over the hard-striking Charlottetown mittslinger. Clay- boume had a slialht edge during the

round but after that it was Corbetts fight all the way. Scor- ing almost as well with a da.rn.ag— inc right uppercut in close quart- ers. Corbett from the second to the sixth was in front, and the judges decision in the Cape Breton fight- ers favor was a. mere formality when the fight that the majority of the fans thought was equal to

R1825’ 5'-1‘D€f‘i0f‘il«5' at the net de- cided the issue today. Whenever Parker managed to gain 5 stand at the net, he was successful too. but Riggs, rushing in with less discretion, beat Frankie to the barrier consistently.

Riggs joined Parker in the final round defeating Ladislnv Hecht, of Creche-Slavakin, 7-5, 10-8, 8-4 Saturday. -
