SAN FRANCISCO Gal July1 again We had to go clear to Australia-I to find one man that was worse than-I the JeffriesMonroe fiasco but we arean Industrious and persistent people

I find this time we picked the

training thought he was Jes a fooldid not seem possible that a

champion of Australia o slowand a champion of WayBack Center for that matterthought he must be holding out

and affecting a waywardness likehad to do in his rowing

he was getting ready to scoop up thet money of Petersons backers

their wise minds that-I Squires was plotting for a cleanupFought Like He Trained

So the odds of the betting menwere on the slow old farm wagon fromAustralia Nobody ever gave Burns any

Jn fact he was lined up as a good dealof a mutt who had lumbered alongup to the top of the second raters Sothe went piling on the stranger-on the theory be a wonderwhenever he could set out of his ownway

But he was not faking or stallingor simulating at Squires ofAustralia was just the same In the ringas ho was In his trainingstrong slow willing oaf and Burnshardly knew what had happened whenhe put this antipodean unchapcen downand out In two minutes of fighting andwithout having a blow landed on himthat would have damaged a consump-tive

Jeffries looming in the ring with aswollen Jaw from an ulcerated toothwas one of the ugliestlooking Reubensever seen by man but he very probablycould whip both Burns and Squires intho same at the same timetraining ulcerated tooth and all Hecould certainly put either away with hisright nand tied to his suspenders-

It can be said right here howeverthat Squires and his backer took theirmedicine like men It must be an awfuldose to come so far just to make a twominute farce But there was never awhimper or an objection Squires saidhe was beaten by a better manand his backer kissed his thousandsgoodby with a philosophical smile andthe remark thatin Autralla So there was something toredeem the fiasco after allOn the Level All Right

outcome of the fight certainly surprisedme I expected to see a longer battleand hardly expected to see the goend first round

I must say that Burns is a much better fighter than he gets credit for beingHe has all that has been asked ofhim so far and 18 a greatly improvedboxer Sn Francisco judged him Illsappearance here long ago and his fightsdown have been overlooked by thefollowers of the game up here

It does not follow that Squires Is nota pruod man because flume beat himThere are lots of men who would beeasy for Squires but a man whohas studied the game as thoroughly as

haS In the last twb years theAustralian showed up verySquires showed no ring generalship dueto the that he never had boon In along tight

his other battles he was a winnerand an easy one at that and whet honeeded to use some hoadwork to helphim out h suffered from his inexperi-ence In this line

The referees Job in yesterdays fightwas a sinecure as was no question to arise

THAT ONE ROUND

Round camo togetherquickly and Squires forced Burnsaround Tommy backed away andfinally clinched Both tried to punchand failed Burns felled Squires with-

a right to the jaw Squires aroseimmediately and went in scoring onthe body with the right Theyclinched and worked across the floorSquires landed right on the body andleft on oar Burns landed anotherright on the head and followed withanother knocking Squires downagain Squires and was knockeddown again Squires took count

stood up before Tommy Burns and wasknocked out in less than a minutesfighting Burns retreated around thering before and clinched andlaughed as the Australian tried to pin

a corner Whop they worked tothe center again Buens drew Squiresfire and then went at him with asnappy right on the left temple thatdropped himSquires Did Land I

Squires eyes were Winking and hewas clearly rattled when he aroseThere was a lump between the ear andeye He went at Burns In a rathershaky manner and forced him acrossthe platform getting la a couple ofbody punches and a lefthander on theside of the face Burns was as cool asa cucumber but Squires was still suf-

rosehe

knock-down

Burns watched his chance and landed another snappy blow and Squireswent to the boards again He got upand reeled around ducking from imaginary blows and trying to clinch withan imaginary opponentBurns Measures Distance

Burns coolly measured him senthim down and out from a hard righthander on the point of the chin Squiresrested on his back hIs head slightlyraised from the mat and his eyelidstrembling He was dead to his surroundings until the time had elapsedand Jeffries had proclaimed Burns thewinner

Along with the victory and the 8000guarantee Burns takes the 10000 sidebet which was handed to Jeffrie in theform of a check by the writer beforethe battle began It was theshortest heavyweight championshipfight on record The actual time offighting was about half a minute

Had Squires been the victor insteadof being a lomon thore might haveboon some slight reason for Jeffriesmeeting him but there is absolutelynone for Jeffries oven considering amatch with Burns and such a boutIs ever arranged it will be the greatostpiece of surething businessthat over hit the American ring andshould be enough to close the boxinggame forever on the CoastShould Never Be Matched

Burns Is a light heavyweight anddespite his easy time with FalseAlarm Squires yesterday never willbe considered a real classy man evenIn the lightheavy ranks In the dayswhen pugilism was going good andthere were giants In the squared circleBurns would never have been considered-at all for a big match and it was Inthose days that Jeffries won his undis-puted title as champion pugilist of theWorld from men of undoubted merit

To match a man of Burns undoubtedinferior caliber with Jeffries would result in either one of two things EitherJeffries would beat him as easily

as Burns beat Squires or Burns wouldwin because found phys-ically impossible to prepare for bout

as anSquires Selected and Squelched

Squires was dug up by Bill Naughtonand other Coast fight fans who wanted-to see action in the heavyweight

For months they flooded thepapers with tiresome stories saying Jeffries would reenter the ring and thenpromptly issued denials of what theywrote the day before Squires was selected and squelched as a means offorcing the champion into the arenaand it might be hoped that they wouldkcop quiet for awhile but as a matter of fact we are likely to be delugedwith Jeffries will and Jeffries wontstories by people to get In on thfcground floor the thirdterm boomers In fact there is a humorous sim-ilarity between the two movements

The sudden eclipse of Squires showshow little faith canfrom the training camps of pugilistsHis were issuingwe were told he was the real goodsAfter he was so decisively beaten thesame boosters one loud wallto the effect that he was a mutt andnever did have warranting afirstclass engagementThe Times Gave Good Tip

Fight writers at a distance hadnothing to go on as they had

not seen Squires and his record wasof no value in this country Also mostof us have lad enough experience toappreciate the weight campyarns have in forecasting result ofa fight
