SHAHKEY WHIPS PHILIP SCOTT IN THIRD ROUND Boston Fighter Spanks Englishman, Who Cries For Foul .Victory Miami, Fin.. Feb. 28. (U.R) How familiar it all seemed! There was Phil Scott sitting panting for breath, grimacing and whining that he had been fouled. There was Jack Sharkey, tense and eager for more battle. tears of excitement and rage streaniiir: down his flushed (hecks. And there was little Jimmy John son. screaming witli simulated anger and telling everyone within hearing that V and his Philip had been robbed. Thus ended the spocfaculat heavyweight elimination bout, wag “d last night beneath a star-stud-ded sky amidst balmy hreezt s while mor" that 1 . 20,-994), Im-luding’ notables of stage, screen, society and so forth looked on in the Mad ison Square Gardens big arena and hooted. Jack Sharkey now stands alone as ’he foremost heavyweight con tender of the 'wo id. for lie won last night on technical knockout after two minutes and 31 secondof fight ng and a minute of frantic furious argument and uncertainty in the third round. During that minute, white 1 >e Magnolia suspended the count and bent over the moaning, gesticulat ing Scott, with Johnson, ’the Englishman's second shrieking in his ear. the throng held Its breath. For it looked as though the virtual heavyweight championship of the world was going to sail the seas to jolly old England, whence it came.’ There had been some apprehension that Scott, victor six times previously in his career on fouls, would attempt to win at Miami by the same method. And witli the very first savage body punch which put him down on one knee in the third round. Philip gazed agonized ly toward liis corner for advice. They made Scott get up that time, and they made him keep on getting up every .time Slmrke.v knocked him down, until finally he sagged on the ropes and wouldn't get up any more. Its a good thing that Liu Magnolia warn firm minded In Cmi point, because otherwise Scott would be heading back to England now, claiming the championship of Hie world, as the result of the seventh fight of his career, on a laini of foul. J mmy Johnston was around today asserting that he and his Philip had been robbed, and that i physicians examination followng the bout showed that Philips leg had been paralyzed by a low pencil. But the fact remain that’the better man won. Sharkey carried the fight to Scott from tlie opening bell, and while Phil boxed fairly well and blocked numerous wild test-swings to the head, there never was any doubt about the outcome, short hough the bout was.. The Englishman went down for i count of s:y in the second, and tlnee times from body blows iji the third before he finally gave up. sitting on, one of tile ropes ln-wild-iredly wondering why his custom try ciaim of foul was taking so Long to receive recognition. It is true that Sharkey, n his "age: ness to finish h'.s man, land ed dangerously tow once or t wic with left hooks, but the blows were not hard, not to he compared vith those which caused Scott's knees to cave in and his desire sot further scrapping to fly away on the night breeze from the ocean. After the third knock down in lie third round, the referee invit'd J.mmy Johnston tn come into the ring and see if his Englishman wanted any more. It took a full minute to persuade Scott to go on. but finally he did. under threat of disqualification, and then Sharkey finished the job in workman like fashion. But with Scott grovelling and gesticulating and trying to claim a foul, and Jimmy Johnston howling liis head off, it was a sorry exhibition. and the crowd of slightly more than 20,000 left thoroughly disgusted. Most of the preliminary bouts in this widely advertisely spectacle of action of tumbling heavyweights were quite as disappointing if not as messy. Johnny Risko, who fought Vittorio Campolo, the Argentine contender, in the semi-final bout, was robbed of a decision which he merited. The chubby Clevelander, outweighed by nearly 40 pounds, carried the fight to his towering opponent all the way, and every one except the referee, Kid MePartland, figured John as the victor. I was called a drag. Jimmy Maloney and Tommy Loughran. two of Sharkey’s former victims, eked out slender decisions over Moise Bouquillon and Pierre Charles respectively, out pointing the continental heavy-
