ager of the. Portland gymnasium.
Whether the fight was actually
framed or not wotild be difficult
lo tell. The boxing commission
thinks It was, many of the fans
think it was. One thins In certain
and' that Is that If the bout was
not framed beforehand someone
made a mighty poor Jolt of ihe
matchmaking end of it.
McCarly Kayocd
McCarty took the count short
ly alter the beginning of the sec
ond round apparently from a body
punch. He was plainly outclassed
by the colored fighter from the
very beginning of the bout.
Sunny Jim sinned right at the
beginning nnd handed In a number
of short, piston-like blows to Mc
carty's chin which jarred him con
siderably. The while man was on
tho mat Ihrcf times In the first
frame. Once, when h fell throush
the ropes (e was bruised back of
the right ear and hurt to some ex
tent. Sunny Jim netually hit McCarty
hard enough to give him some dis
comfort, that is true but It seems
Improbable that he walloped him
with enough force to put him nut
entirely. Not ony was he appar
ently liot hurt to any stent extent
hut he still felt strong enough to
threaten a number of fans who
yelled "fake" near him when leav
