Sir- in Manchester. NH. October 5, 1910 boxing fans were treated to a highly successful boxing card staged at the Queen City A. C. The participants in the main event were Bill Mac- Kinnon of Roxbury and Jerry Martin of Manchester.

it was a gruelling fight from start to finish with both boys trading heavy punches in the in-fighting. Maclfinnon looked to be the stronger of the two. but what Martin lacked in strength he more than made up for in boxing ability.

At the end of twenty rounds the officials declared it a draw. nluch to the delight of the large crowd in attendance.

Although MacKinnon did prac- tically all of his fighting in Amer- ican rings. he was actually born at Mt. Stewart, P.E.l., and left this Province around 1897. Another Maritime man making good in American rings at the time MacKinnnn was doing so well was Sandy Ferguson, born at Sunny Brae. N.B.. just out- side of Moncton. Had Sandy taken the game seriously he could have possibly been champion of the world. He reached his peak around 1900-05. In that period he fought such world tamoils bruisers as Jack Johnson (three timesl, Sam (The Boston Tar Babyl Langford (twicei. the or- iginal Joe Waicott (twicel. Mar- vin Hart and Denver Bob Arm- strong. If any of the above men- tioned were around today. they would undoubtedly be champions of their divisions.

No fighter who faced Sandy had an easy time defeating him. He had the punch of a quarter- master's mule in his right hand. After retiring Sandy opened up a boxing school in Moncton. N.B.. but this didn't satisfy him and he returned to Boston where he made several unsuccessful come- backs. The old spark was gone. however. and around 1908 he hung up his padded mitts for good. He went back to his or- iglnal trade as a lumberiack and a few years later he died of TB

Long. shortly after Pittsburgh drafted him from Kansas City of the American Association in 1951. became the central figure in the famed Branch Rickey experiment which aimed at converting the lefty-throwing Long into a catch- er. The experiment failed and Long returned to first base and was sold to the St Louis Browns.

He was later re-acquired by Pittsburgh. who optioned him to Hollywood in 1954. He did not take his demotion lightly and threatened to write a letter of protest to commissioner Ford Frick. He reconsidered however. and last winter again found him- self on the Pirafcs' roster.

Roy's style of fighting is a uni- versal crowd pleaser. He likes to wade in and throw punches until either he or his opponent takes a nosedive into the resin. and up un- til the present it has usually been his opponent. 0 0 0

While Poulton is not noted to be a better. he showed in his last scrap here that he is developing a solid punch to complement his unquestioned boxing moxie. This will do little for the peace of mind of his opponents. who always had their hands full trying to hit him with a solid punch without worry- ing too much about being 'nocked into dreamland themselves.
