Giant Heavyweight Contender Disposes of Tough Battler Last Night. NEW YORK, March 3, Harry Wills knocked out Kid .Norfolk in the second round of their scrap last night at Madison Square Garden. A fe.v seconds after the second round began the men were clinched, and Norfolk suddenly fell to the floor and on his back. Referee Mcl'artland counted him out. Very few saw the punch, but McPartland said it was a short right-hand uppercut, and so It must t-tand. An "invisible punch," we'd call it. Wills had everything in his favor, weight, height, reach, etc. etc. Wills weighed 211 3-i pounds while Norfolk tipped the beam at 176. Norfolk looked rather pale before he started. He gazed over at Wills as if he were going to the chair. After a few instructions Referee McPartland started them off. Wills towered over Norfolk as they came out. Wills got la a good left and right to the jaw, but Norfolk came back with two body blows, then he copped Wilis on the jaw with a right. Wills st3ggered him with a left. Norfolk rushed at Wills, but slipped to the floor. A left to the jaw sent Norfolk spinning across tte ring. I iweniy-six seconds arter the start of 1 the sceond round the men were roughing iK In a clinch suddenly Norfolk fell on his back. After McPartland had counted him out Norfolk got up, but McPartland waved him to his corner.
