The blows weren't taking any visible effect on Kelly even when the loser crossed with rights to the mid-section but they had the former Quebec middle- weight champion away out in front. It was a dismal outlook for Kelly but suddenly the tide halted after a minute of fighting in the fourth heat. Tide Turns Unable to get in close up lo this point Kelly jabbed with his left to iiraiiliwaites face and then cross- rd over with asmashhzg right "and wallop to the jaw. Braitliwaite was shook right to his heels as he grabbed and hung on and the wal- iup was the one that turned the tide. But the visiting fighter lust as smart and courageous as anv cf them used all his ring craft to keep Kelly from measuring him for s kayo wsilop. He came comparatively-fresh for the fifth and again started that tattoo with his educated left maul- er but again Kelly caught up to him midway through the heat and again Braithwaiie grabbed onlv now and then to shoot rights and iefts as Kelly kept crowding in on top of him. Throughout the sixth. seventh and eighth Kelly tried in vain to get an open wallop at his opponent's jaw but Braithwaito was just too smart. hanging on for dear life as the fans roared for the referee to break the fighters 00090.1‘. V Even Round Brsiifrwsito made his final bid in the ninth to earn a draw in the host. For the first half of the ses- sion he sprang on the offensive to Kelly about. tho face with left and. crossing with rights to the body. Kelly again weathered the storm, however, and came back iri the latter stages to earn a draw. Coming out for the tenth Braith- waits landed a couple of hard rights and left-s together with an- other right to the body iii the first minute but the champion again got the range and for the rest of the round he shook his opponent to his shoestrings with smashinz right hand wallops and at the bet‘. was looking in vain for an opening for a sleep-producing shot. The judges decision "giving the nod to Kelly was unanimous. The battle was one of the tough- est ever staged in the Sporting club. Although there were no knockdowns both fighters ave and received hard smashing bows but kept going on raw courage. Braith- Wflllb in defeat was still the popu- lar figure he has always been in a Charlottetown ring. The colored boy proved to all and sundry that when the occasion warrants he can assimilate punishment like a sponge soaks up water and last night he took some terrific Wallops He was on the canvas onoe during the fight going to one knee i-n the fifth as he claimed a low blow but was just back on his feet when the bell ended the session. There was no count taken. Mooney Loses Tough One Jim Mooney of Peskes after hammering his olilionent Harold Higgins of Denmark, Nova Scotia, from pillar to posit. in the second and third rounds and having his opponent in difficulties throughout the first part of the fourth lost the scrap on a technical knockout in tho fifth after getting too anxious towards the clme of the fourth heat ran into a hard right to the jaw as he charged in that laid nim on the canvas. The bell went just as Mooney slumped to the floor and his second worked frantically over him during the rest period: he did manage to come out for the fifth but was outcold on his feet. Moon should never have been allowe to leave his corner and the referee stepped in and awarded the fight to the Nova Scotia fight- er and with it the junior light- heavyweight title of the Maritimes as the scrap had been billed as a title match. Mooney weighed 167 to his oppon- ents 1'15. Drellminsrles Young Martin of Charlottetown scored a second round knockout over Young Mooney of Peakes in the second fight on the card. The pair, both youngsters, started slug- ging out right from the opening bell and the fast action had the big crowd in an u roar but although the action was ast and furious neither boy showed any superior- ity over the other. In the second Mooney started forcing matters and for a whilc had his opponent on the run, but like his brother Jim he suddenly ran into a right hand that set him on the canvas for a three count Aris- ing he was met with another flurry of punches and another right hand again knocked him down to have We Want Swrrr CAPS .

Aug. 12 —-(AP) - With a September shot at Joe Louis as the somewhat painful re- ward, Billy Conn and Bob Pastor fight it out in the Polo Grounds tomorrow night in s bsttls bring- ing together the two best boxers mung the "big" fellows in the ring ay. As a fight, it figures to be the classiest exhibition of ring science since Tommy Lou hran and Jim- my Slattery w their l5-riound duel 13 years ago, but the cash customers aren't taking to it. Most optimistic estimates are that 20,000 will contribute to a gross gate of $50000. Although Pastor went twentyone rounds with Louis before the Bomb- ers's depth charges exploded on him, the betting fraternity has mode the light-heavyweight cham- pion from Pittsburgh the favorite. The odds, however, have nose-div- ed steadily, and Billy the Kid pro- babl won't go into the ring at bet- ter han 6 to 6, with even money a possibility.
