In this round he walked from the center of the ring over to where Thomas’ seconds were standing and hit one of them a wallop In the jaw. Aftdr thia unsportsmanlike conduct on his part moat of the fans present would have liked to see Thomas knock him for a row of sauce dishes.

Most everyone en joys a good scrap but they want to see the participants fight clean. The fight was declared a draw. Joe Udey acted as referee. After the smoker there waB a dance at the Hermiston auditorium. The Legion also sponsored this event. As an added attraction Friday there was calf riding for boys and a mule race.
