Boxing fans last night received a thrill when Sewell Deane of Sa lem and .Charles' Dawson, of Eu gene, battled to a draw ia 10 fast and tunous rounds. Both men were experienced fighters, weighed 14 4 pounds each, and understood their business. For 30 minutes . they performed. Both had wicked punches, but neither was able to land the sleeping punch. This was the first time in many months that a 10-round bout has been of fered: and Harr Plant, match maker, received many congratu lations upon the staging of the card.. A large crowd turned out. one of the best aggregation of fans in Tecent months.

Deane opened up in the : first round and registered the first hit. Both showed their stuff but were wary, sizing up each other. Daw son fought an open style while Deane offered a peculiar crouch, drawing his bead between his shoulders.

Both men got under way by the third round while the next went to Daw son by a shade. Deane came back and mixed things.; drawing credit for the period. i i During the sixth round both ex--hanged some hard blows, first one appearing to take the round and then the other, j Deane begged Dawson to open up and "come on", in the seventh, which was Deane's round. Deane appeared to have the edge in the next round while in the ninth he dropped Dawson to his knee with a solar plexus blow. If either had been able to connect in the tenth, the fight would have terminated abruptly. The decision of draw, given by two judges, was well received by the crowd, which. wa3 strong for the local fighter. 4 : : Three fix-round events paved the way for the main event.

Lefty refused to take advantage ot a count .and continued the fight. Coates took the round by a wide margin. In the second round, .see ing the hopelessness of the fight, Warton's seconds tossed a sponge into the ring to signify the finish, as far as they were concerned and to spare their man. Spike Cros san, r of Salem, stepped into the ring and challenged Coates for a later match. The two were evenly snatched as to weight, each weigh ing about 141. i The-only disappointing bout of the program was the second pre liminary,' when Kewpie Dayton, of Seattle.: received a sudden attack of "leather fever") and upon get ting close enough to smell a glove, passed away. At every swing, whether he was touched or not, Dayton fell upon his back when Young Dempsey. of Oregon City,' made a pass in his direction. The fight was stopped in the ' first ound. Fearing that Dayton might have had a heart (attack, a phy sician was called to examine him. but found him physically in con dition.
