Froiithen ou Rocco contented
hlmx'ipjw'illi making Sammy miss,
nn um 'laklnR in which he failed
jUHt (it. cnnugli to gel a terrific
Jncing.
ltocco succeeded in landing a few
to tho heart and wind but tlicy had
little impression on Olson, who took
the offensive tbrotisuout. Rocco
gave a good exhibition of gnnieneFa
and was out on -his i feet at least
onco beforo the final count. His
uncanny ability to take them going
nwny or-' glancing saved his bacon
in the early rounds of the fight.
Olson chnnged his tactics last
night and proved that he has more
than a straight left. Ills right hand
was used to good advantage
throughout.
Tho scml-windup was a whirl'
wind throughout. Joe Coffman out
boxed Johnny Carlson in every
round, showing too much speed for
the Ashland boy and carrying the
light in every stanza.
Coffman was in wonderful con
dition and went at top 'speed for
the first four rounds but was
, visibly tiring in the last two. Carl
son was cut and "battered but never
in danger, contenting himself with
an ironclad defense and with cut
ting looso with an oecasional rip
ping right.
t'offniaii was lot better thun
in his last fight, his speed and
judgment Improved and a bettor
technique throughout reveiillng
that in working out for the fight
he was under the wing of Krankie
Murphy and other old heads ut least
part of the time.
lie got the decision mid earned it.
The six-round event in which
Heinle Meyers and 'Maurice Harris
of Ashland was a disappointment
as far as the decision was concerned
but satisfactory otherwise.
The boys were awarded a draw,
the judges evidently basing their
verdict on the fifth round in which
Harris had Meyers temporarily in
distress.
In the first four rounds and in
the Fbtth it was Myers' fight all
the way. One of Harris' eyes was
completely closed and In tho sec
ond and in the third ho was
glassy-eyed.
Myers was the aggressor through
out and at all times showed a de
sire to wade Into his taller oppon
ent and trade punches.1 Ho led con
tinually Harris put up- a game ex
hibition and deserved credit for
stopping -so many and still coming
back for more.
In the curtain raiser, Joe Wal
ters, 1 CO-pounder. substituted for
Jack Brush of Dorris and mixed
with 190-pound Gunboat Smith of
Chico. He mixed tor the first round
and then discovered that a 30
pound handicap is not to be. sneezed
at, after that showing a disposi
tion to take (t easy. The boys were
given a draw.
Frankie Murphy .
Entitled To Be
Seen July 4th
If the boxing commission wants
to please a majority of the cash
customers, it will sign Frankie
Murphy, up for the July 4th card,
which Is now in the making. Mur
phy is one of the best light heavy
weights in the country, is a draw
ing card in many of the big cities,
and hasmade a real impression on
tlie boxing bugs who have watched
him in tho gym since he arrived
here a couple of weeks ago.
. If Sammy Olson has been prom
ised a bout on the next card, let
him swap leather with' the New
Orleans battler. If the fans are
tired of seeing Olson in the ring,
they should bring in some heavy
weight with a real reputation to
battle Murphy.
There-is some talk of giving Earl
Xlitcbie another tumble on tho next
card. The local heavyweight fell
before the right hand ot Rocco
Slrambo here a couple ot months
ago. Olson last night rocked
Strambo to sleep. By the process of
reduction where dous Ritchie rate
a match with Olson?'
Ritchlo " is. said to be training
faithfully. Ho ji3 reported to be
standing up against the big fel
lows and trading nlowjMn the gym.
On his gymnasium showing alone
there is now talk of giving him the
headline bout. It would be better
for Ritchie and for the game in
general to let him start down tho
ladder, say in the seml-windup,
and prove hiniBelf before being
given the top position.
Bat it the commission is de
termined to put Ritchie on, let him
meet Murphy. The tans have seen
Olson in three tights. . The 'small
house last night showed he is los-
i ing out as a drawing card. In the
boxing game new faces must be
shown if the sport is to be kept
alive. Other cities have found that
out years ago. ...
Murphy Is "a fighter with a na
tional reputation. ' He is on - the
ground .and willing to box for the
regular percentage, without any
guarantee. The fans want to see
him in action. By signing him up
the boxing commission and pro
moter will be helping the game and
keeping interest alive.
