Olsen hit him with everything except the referee's snirt, but the big bwede s punches didn t seem to carry anyistryker and authority. A cood middleweight, with a muich heavv enouirh , ruin. to dent a roll of cold storage butter would have turned the lights out for Gorman before the third round. Opening the battle, Olsen shoved, - his left Into Gorman's face so many times that "Firpo" imagined every one in the bouse had a pair of box ing gloves on and were after him.

Coff , man was too fast for the Spokane ; boy, and kept .Carlson on the de i tensive most of the battle. . The first three rounds trere fairly . even, with Carlson landing the heaviest blows, but In the final . remands Coffman opened op, and had Carlson groggy in the fifth. Both -finished strong, however, but Coff .. man had a clear lead. ', Heinle Meyers of Sacramento carried too many guns for Wilbur ;i Harrington, local scrapper, and the local kid went out for keeps in the ;i third round ot a scheduled four J round tussle. Harrington Gets K. O. ' Meyers heard .the birdies in the first round, when Harrington park - ed him right on the button, but the punch was not hard enough to keep the Sacramento kid on the ., troor. From the opening bell the boys cut loose with everything they . had, and It was a cinch the way i' they started, the affair wouldn't go '; the four cantos. Meyers went down for a seven- count early in the first, and was sent to the canvas for another short ': count at the close of the same ' round. He came back strong in . the second and had a slight edge. In the third Meyers went down again ' in the first minute, but came back ,and ; battered Harrington all over the ring. After two minutes and twenty seconds of fighting, the lo , cal boy went down for good. In the: first preliminary. Babe Lighttoot, local lightweight, and Richard Scott ot Chl.o, Calif., went . four rounds to a draw. It looked ; as though Lighttoot had the decis- ion coming, for he took the last j three rounds, after getting off to a ' woozy start. ; Young Burnell Coleman, 70-pound . Klamath Falls mauler, and Henry McFarland of Roseburg, 78-pounder, . went tour rounds to a draw in the -.curtain raiser.
