It was a much different picture, painted in the claret of the Syra- cuse, N. Y., Pole, for Swiderskl was lashed with. Baer's long, stinging blows for three - nine-counts before Referee Abo Roth stepped in and halted the proceedings with the sev enth round 1 minute 20 seconds old. Swiderskl started out well pnough, keeping up a fairly even pace with the bronzed Californlan, through the slow moving first four rounds, giv ing Baer no' end of trouble in the clinches. He even uncorked a few right crosses of force but the Liver more lad didn't seem to mind that. Max caught his opponent on the chin with a rugged right early in the fifth and then dropped Swiderskl with a left hook a few seconds later as the easterner attempted to move Ln and clinch.

Torrence has thrown i the Javelin farther than the present; mark pri) certain occasions. Three other records that might be broken arc: the broad jump of 21 feet 7 Inches, with Torrence as the only threat; the- 440-yard dash mark of 63 16, which some dark horse might lower; and the relay mark of 1:35, once tied but not yet sur passed, during the last decade.
