Toptiing one of the finest" boxing cards ever staged in
Klamath Falls, Sammy Olson and Jim (Firpo) Gorman pulled
lugged and pushed each other around the ring for ten rounds,
Olsen getting the verdict.
: ' For the first four rounds, Gorman appeared drunk,
' ard was on the floor from one to five 'times each round, not
so much from punches, as from his inability to stand on his
two feet. 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.

times that "Firpo" imagined every
one in the bouse had a pair of box

' For four rounds, the Swede hand

parked hi tonneau on the canvas
several times,' was always in there
trying at the bell.

landing his first' blow, but Sammy

a neat lacing for six rounds and
grabbed oft a popular. verdict. Coff

i tensive most of the battle. .
The first three rounds trere fairly

heaviest blows, but In the final

Carlson groggy in the fifth. Both

', 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. The kids showed
- plenty of class in the go, and were
givenr a ' good shower of silver by
; the crowd.
