FIELDS GETS TITLE AGAIN Chicago, Jan. 29.— (U.R) The, world's welterweight boxing champ-> ionship was back in the possession I today of Jackie Fields, Los Angeles, ( who wrested the title from IXJtI I Brouillard. Worcester. Mass., in a 10-round bout before 11.203 persons . in the Chicago stadium last night. The gate receipts were $25,270.24. Fields, who was born Jacob Finkelstein in Chicago 25 years ago. re-' gained the title a year and S months after he lost it to Jack Thompson ’ in May, 1930. Fields first won the ( title from Joe Dundee on a foul at ■ Detroit in July. 1929. and held it for 9% months before losing ft to Thompson, whom he had twice' beaten before becoming champion. By winning the unanimous decision of Referee Dave Harry and the two judges. Fields became the fifth welterweight champion to regain the 147-pound crown. Mysterious Billy Smith .did it in 1-SSS, Rube Ferns in 1900. Jack Britton in 1919 and Jack Thompson in 1931. Brouillard. who won the title from Jack Thompson, held it only i 3 months aitd 4 days, losing in his! first attempt to defend it. In defeat Brouillard proved his courage' hy fighting his best after Fields had hurt him' with several right hooks to the head in the sixth round. "1 lost to Fields in a hard, fair light,” said Brouillard today. "Fields is very game and a sports-' man. 1 am going out to get th?’ title back. I am only 21 and I am not going to let this defeat discour-! age me. I hope to get a return I match soon." Nate Lewis, Chicago stadium ‘ matchmaker, hopes to state another welterweight title bout within 90 days’ with either Billy Petrolle, Fargo. N. D„ Jimmy McLarning. Vancouver, B. C., or Brouillard as challenger. Fields, weighing 145% pounds, half a pound less than Brouillard. was in better physical shape than his admirers hud hoped in view of his fondness so might life. “J trained for this bout religions-j ly for almost three months," said Fields. “That's one of the main reasons why I won." Fields stood up under a terrific body bombardment from the long armed French-Canadian from New England, and actually had him in real distress in the sixth round. A sharp right hook which caught Brouillard on the chin as he was coming off the ropes almost floored him. As he seemed about to pitch toward his head fell on Fields' shoulder and he clinched. Brouillard’3 knees sagged from two more hard rights, and he retreated across the ring Fields cornered him and was peppering him with both fiats when the bell rang. Until the sixth round, the action was not sustained but the last five

Authorities who bad effected the ?■< s tation of hitsliliiies hoped lids | incident would prove an unlnten |tional violation of the armistiet • (agreement; ami were proceeding on (the theory that the truce in military operations would remain effective. The lull in the fighting which has been going on for 22 hours in ‘Chapel, the native quarter, brought no relief from the terror to the helpless men, women and children of the burning city. The night was illumined hy the flaming houses of the close-packed district. Japanese planes from the fleet of 35 Japanese warships in Hie harbor had dropped scores of bombs | on the defenseless city, killing and' injuring an undetermined number of Chinese. It was impossible to | istimate accurately the casualties! | from the bombings and the fierce J fighting between Chinese and Jap-, anese troops. Because of the dense population of the district, however, it was f< ared tliF deaths would run into hundreds. The Japanese announced casualties among their own troops at 15 dead, 75 wounded and, 95 slightly hurl. The American Missionary Home! which was Iximbed was within the; borders of the International Settlement. which the powers have hi-1 sisted must not lie violated.
