Many of the older followers of box ing will remember Michael Dennis (UuinmyV Rowan, who in the '00s was rated a topnotcher and battled some of the best heavyweights of bis time' despite his handicap of be ing a deaf mute. "Dummy" Rowan is nearly 48 years old and resides here with his brother, "Silent" Ro wan, also an old-time deaf and dumb boxer. - "Dummy''' Rowan was born' at lairclner, Grundy county, Illinois, Ap- 111 i, ioiu. no started nig ring ca-, reer in 1894 and seven vears Inter at Park City, Utah, stopped "Deafv" Thompson in twentv rounds for the mythical deaf mute heawweiirht championship of the world. His last light was in 1!H5. , During his twenty years in the ring, Rowan fought with Bob Fitz simmons, then world's champion, and claims a knockout over Jack John son, who afterward won the heavv wight title from Jim Jeffries at Reno. Rowan's mix with Fitzsimnions took place at Annconda, Mont., soon after he had started out as a boxer. Anxious to secure the Sinn offered by Fitzsiinmon's manager to anybody who could stuy four rounds with the champion, "Dummy" accepted and claims he was holding his own when for some unknown reason the fight was stopped, in the third round. Dummy says ho could not collect the money, nor could he get an ex planation as to why the contest was halted. . It was at Waco, Texas, that Ro wan knocked out Jack Johnson in live rounds. That was .before he of the ''golden smile"' yton " the world's championship, . Rowan fought- a great rnanv bat tles in Utah and he met some of the toughest men who ever appeared in this section, including Jim Francis, "Mexican 1'ete" il'.verett, Tim Sulli- van, Joe Cotton, Jack Conley, and others who were ring idols more than twenty b years .ngo. The Rowan-Cotton contest took place at Mercer, ' Utah, on October' 15,- 1809. It went" twenty rounds to a draw and later Cotton fought a twenry-roimd ilrav with Jim Jeffries just before Jeffries won-the championship- from Bob Fitzsimmons.
