The six matches on the I.. A. C
V. r. A. C. progrum in the odd
Fellows gymsasium last evening
gave the fans one of the -best curds
that lias been presented here for
nmny months.
From ul most every iingle the
card was a "dinger," AH the boys
went in and gave the best t hey
hud to their fights, the men were
nret tv wnll mn tidied jih a whole
and uilWc ull the program wus
handled In K very capable man
ner by the management and the
officials.
As usual Ihe fans disagreed ve
hemently on the decision given by
the referee in the main event,
W'einie Ford vs. Frenchy Smith.
At. the conclusion of six rounds.
Thomas Gossett, referee, grasped
Ford's walloping left hand and
held it aloft.

Smith's supporters couldn't see
it that way and immediately set
up R howl of protest. It was a

good decision nevertheless, and,
incidentally, said Thomas (iossett
is one of the best referees who ever
worked in a local ring. Ilcsides
a thorough knowledge of the game
learned by personal experience,
f J-ossetl has the ml vantage of a
head trained by years of athletic
competition to t hink best when
things ait happening fastest and
size enough to kep the boyH apart
and keep them fighting.
It was Ford's first, real fight in
the ring. Frecnhy Smith is a vet
eran of the arena and a hard man
to beat. Put. Ford beat him. Not
by a wide margin perhaps but
enough to bar a"y chance of a mis
take. lloth bos started out fust dur
ing tin first rounds and fought
about even. Ford hit olh ner and
led in the fighting, "n tin- other
hand Smith was ahead from the de
fensive standpoint and also .showed
a bit of superiority in the infight
ing. At the beginning cf the fourth
frame Ford en me out M rong and
tok the session by a wide margin
and again In tin- fifth outpointed
his opponent. l!ot It boys were
bleeding from the mouth and nose.
Pinal Hound Smith's
In the final round Smith, being
harder had Ford hanging on to
ward the middle of the Inning and
took a slight edge most of the
canto. This last round was not
enough to offset Ford's h'd in the
fourth and fli'Oi und coriHefpient -ty
he got the decision. lie had to
work for It nil the way through and
had the fight tasted another round
or two things would probably have
been different.
Another member of the Ford
family. Young Ford. !)Tt pounds,
fought a draw with Kid luiscoll in
t hree exhibition rounds. Ford
swarmed over the h.avicr and
larger (irlscoll like a mos'iuiio and
had things his own way most ot the
time but I riseoll landed I he only
heavy wallop of the session.
Harry liei k'r was awarded a de
cision over Charlie Kar'her at the
end of the fourth round. This w.is
the closest derision of the i-M'utng
and the one in which a difference
