IN perfect boxing trim, Johnny Denson, Idianaps “olis heavyweight, scored a “quickie” knockout on Irish Mickey Hayes, Milwaukee, in the main go of a five-bout

Hercules A. C. fistic offering at the armory last night. ; - The bleacher boys who shouted, “come on Johnny, let's go home early,” got their answer in the third of the scheduled 10-rounds, Sie * After a flurry of punches in Denson’s corner in which both adversaries scored hits, the heavyweights moved out to near ring center and that was disastrous to Hayes. - Denson cut loose with a righthand uppercut that. chught the - Milwaukee heavyweight on the point of the chin. . .. It was a direct hit and Hayes sprawled to the canvas-and he was out “cold.”.. . . He made a courageous effort to beat the 10 count but couldn’t make it and toppled over again for curtains. ' Still groggy and in a “fog,” it was necessary to carry Hayes to -his corner fo permit his “seconds” to work on him. , . . And Denson helped as a “stretcher bearer.” = The time was 1:48 of the third canto. . . . Denson won the round by landing three hard lefts by using his superior reach to ad-> vantage. . .. Hayes was willing and kept barging in during the second canto, -

FREQUENT clinching oceurred in the second round and thers was not much punishment inflicted. . . . At the start of the third heat Hayes scored with a left and stopped a Denson right ‘in return. . .. The ers then went into a dizzy slambang session and Sachianged left and rights in close. Denson was jolted and felt it, Hayes also stopped some stiff ones. « « . Parted by the referee, they moved out and Denson landed the haymaker. ; Height and reach were on Denson’s side and he was in good physical condition... . . Weight was even, announced at 191 pounds’ apiece. , , . Approximately 1500 fans witnessed the headliner.

Millsapp Too Smooth For Sheridan 2

IN THE semi-windup, Bobby Millsapp, Milwaukee middleweight, easily decisioned ‘Al Sheridan, Indianapolis, in eight rounds. . . . A clever, two-fisted boxer minus a haymaker, Millsapp knew too much for the local middleweight and piled up points in stride. The Milwaukee man was fast on his feet, shifted easily and took Sheridan through a series of boxigg lessons. “Wiry and loose, Millsapp grabbed the lead with a lefthand head and body attack in the second round and set the pace the remainder of the distance. . . . The winner displayed a variad offense and was - good at everything last night. . . . He was a smart blocker as well. Sheridan refused to surrender, however, and stayed in there and tried against his more experienced foe.

Paul Decisions Hewitt in Tame Go

IN a six-round prelim, Earl Paul decisioned Whitey Hewitt. . , , These local junior lightweights were on the tame side in dishing it out last night... . . As a matter of fact, no serious damage was recorded. . . . They know each other’s style and this situation hampers their boxing. Paul was the aggressor and landed the harder punches. was some free mixing at times but not enough of it.

Amateur Novices Used As Pros!

IN ANOTHER four-rounder two lads fresh out of the alalewr novice ranks threw punches all over the premises. . . . Willis McCoy decisioped Gene Miller in the toe-to-toe fracas after losing the first two heats. McCoy was slapped around the ring in the first and was dazed by Miller's righthand blows. . . . Miller failed to follow up his advantage in the second although he won the round. , . . In the third McCoy achieved a comeback and plastered Miller a-plenty. Miller's nose spurted blood and he was a sorry sight in the fourth " and last stanza as McCoy kept chasing him and pouring it on. , .. It was a typical Golden Gloves give-and-take fisiic melee.

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 19 (U. P.). —Connie Mack, veteran mentor of the Philadelphia Athletics, returned home last night from Savannah, Ga., after an inspection of the A’s new training base. Mack said he was pleased with facilities available for his team, particularly the ball park where the Mackmen will start drilling on March 10. The park is a comparatively new plant, seating 14,000, has a grass infield and concrete stands. Mack said the park is situated miles outside the city. The

thorpe hotel. The veteran A’s pilot said that there ‘will be only ohe practice daily, starting about 11 a. m. and lasting about three hours.
