C., defeated by Harry Sacks, St. Agnes AC. Tech K.O. Only a handful of spectators were present at the Armories last night to witness a card of rea Ismart scraps. All fights were drawn just before the curtain raiser and were with the exception of the first and last two well matched bouts between boys of nearly equal ability. In the 112 Ib class Clarkie Hough- ton won his first fight but was no match for the fast moving package of dynamite let loose against him in the second round of the elimina- tion. Oshawans will be pleased to learn that the T.N.T. was no other than Scotty Adair, the only Oshawa boy on the card. Adair took Hough- ton in the first round when he let loose a million socks at him within The 160 1b final between Sacks and Cardew was also one-sided but Cardew's gameness kept him in the ring until near the end of the third, when his seconds threw in the | sponge. | The finals to be fought tonight will also go down in the history of Oshawa boxing as being a card worth thee tariff at the wicket. | Of last night's winners many will also shine tonight, among those of whom a good fight is expected are Lint Green, 112 lbs, Scotty Adair. 112 Ibs, M. Mathewson, 112 Ibs. Harry, Sacks, who having won the 160 1b final tonight fights in the 147 1b class. Bobby Lawrence, .126 Ibs, | also fought a clever fight and is ex- pected to go a long way. There were many who drew a bye last night that will be on the books tonight, these include Tony Fezzie and Bert Ripley, the latter from the Ontario Regiment Boxing Club. Curtain Raiser Both fighters of the first bout showed willingness to mix things. Crawford, the taller of the two, kept things hot for Joe during the first round with hard punches. Joe fakes fatigue only to slip one over once or twice. Crawford during the second took a lot out of Joe de- spite encouragement shouted at the smaller. Joe landed some right swings and uppercuts but for the most part took a lot of punishment. Crawford had everything his own way during the third having Joe hanging on the ropes on several oc- casions to win a good fight. Long and Short Another fight between a tall and short boy where the crowd cheered for the smaller. They opened witha profusion of wild swings. Houghton got the best owing to his advantage in reach. The gameness.of these two bantams was a tribute to their club when the little fellow came right back to land a couple and bring cheers from the crowd. The second fell to Houghton but not by any large margin. The continued circling for openings wore the "wee" boy down but gameness predomin- ated and he finished trying hard but in vain and the decision had to fall to Houghton. Green vs. Greenilade = The opening frame was an indi- cation of a good fight to come. Green the Hamiltonian, proved to be smart and cool using a business like left and rights followed the circling Greenslade dealing out hard jolts regularly. During the second Green increased his lead and continued to wear down the Toronto boy by hard punches. Twice Greenslade was knocked to the canvas only to come up for more. The face, chest and arms of Greenslade grew redder as Green with rapier like right hooks chaffed him again and again through- two minutes of fighting, forcing Houghton to quit. out the third to win a nice clean fight.

Hutchison vs. Mathewson Standing toe to. toe these 'two smart fighters shot punch after jolt to_the other's face and body. Hutch- ison doing the circling took plenty from the cool Mathewson, After Ma- thewson had fallen with Hutch trip- ping over him the Central Y fighter with cool deliberation jarred Hutch- ison once or twice hard. In the second the good fighting continued, each landing some hard drives. Ma- thewson getting the advantage with rights to the face that hurt. Ma- thewson forged ahead by means of a powerful right again and again landing hard on his opponent's face. Following him from corner to corner Mathewson proceeded to win a real fight that pleased the fans, Bigley vs. Hughes Two even fighters, Bigley may be smarter but Hughes forced the fight landing a number of rights that were hard to take. Bigley was clever on many occasions when he brought forth clever footwork to evade punch- es that were tagged. Bigley came back during thesecond to battle Hughes hard with straight lefts and left hooks, Hughes seemed to tire near the end of the second. During the rest period it was announced that Hughes had injured his right hand and would be unable to con- tinue. Bigley' was awarded the de- cision, Bland vs. Herchel Another southpaw with a queer style was Herchel and in an exhibi- tion of awkward sparring Bland suc- ceeded in landing a few light right hand punches during the first set to. Not, much acceleration during the second, the only difference being in Herchell getting a little better ex- change. Bland. finally got the judges' decision but it was a close fight, Hershell giving all that he took throughout the third but could not catch the lead. : Edwards vs Lawrence Using 'a continual straight' left Lawrence frightened Edwards into circling throughout the first, flicking the left in and out with a rapidity that dazzled. Every move Edward's made was met with a left either straight or crooked that sent the ever tiring' Edwards against the ropes many times during the second. At the start of the third a left fol- lowed by a right knocked Edwards for a nine count. After he got up he tried hard but met too many hard punches that followed him from rope to rope. a vigan vs. Cordell.

Sparring featur- ed the third, Gavigan landing a few clean lefts while Cordell got a little better break. Houghton vs. Adair » Dazed by the speed and cleverness of Oshawa's Scotty Adair who danced in and out to knock the be- wildered Houghton down six times before the first bell rang. In fact the bell never did ring as Houghton in a daze was forced to quit before the onslaught let loose by Scotty. Displaying a 'fast clever style coupled with a stiff Straight left that shot out fast and accurately put Sacks in the lead: early in the bout, Cardew's ability to stay in the mix- ups saved him plenty. The left wrecked havoc on the face of Car- dew in the second when his defen- sive style was not equal to the speed of Sacks' straight left, Cardew took a host of punishment in the third 'lbeing knocked down four times, each time he should have stayed put but was too game to quit. Sacks | saw the condition his opponent was in and wanted the fight to stop, fin- ally Cardew's second threw in the stopping a game but insu- perior lad from the count, Red Aces ' Confident ' A meeting of the Red Ace Soft- ball Club (Juvenile and Junior) , will be held in the Y.M.C.A., Wed- nesday night at 8.00 o'clock sharp.

Mandell should have little trou- ble with Benny Duke, of Grand Ra- pids, when they meet in Grand Ra- pids on Friday night nor should Schwartz be unduly extended by Roy Walley of Manila at San Fran- cisco the same night. Both bouts will be at catchweights. On the other hand, Dundee pos- sibly will be in for an unpleasant evening at Boston on Friday when he meets Al Mello, of Lowell, Mass., in a return match at the Boston garden. Mello gave the welter- weight champion something of a trouncing in a recent match at Bos- ton and may do it again. As usual, Dundee has seen to it that his title, a fn th 4 het oii £- drew gore from Cordell's nose early [ed Junior Hockey's Best: --»y simmy thompson i ' IN THE THIRO PERIOP OF THE 4 'MEMORIAL CUP GAME HE TRIMMED THE FORWARD AnD DEFENCE LINE AND BEAT THE GOAL KEEPER TO CLINCH THE TITLE FOR HIS TEAM.

Of the early finishers, Gardner's elapsed time, 51.21.10 since the runners left New York, was so far the best as to assure him of the lead, as Johnny Salo held but a 20- minute advantage over him at the start.

Steve Rocco Defeats Parra After Ten q Forc® to Take a Nine Count in the Seventh, Rocco Fin- ishes Strong -- Rocco Superior Throughout the Battle Using Hard Body Punches (By Canadian Press Leased Wire) Toronto, April 9.--Steve nucco, Toronto, former flyweight cham- pion, refeated Routier Parra, Chilean titleholder, over the ten round route at the Coliseum' here last night. Except for the sev- enth round, when Rocca took a nine count, the Toronto boy was always on top, taking all the rounds but one which was even. Rocco was the more clever boxer and cleaner hitter, but both showed a willingness to mix it. Parra took plenty of punibhment with little signs of wear. A wild right swing to. the jaw after a left hook in the seventh sent Rocco down. He came to one knee at the count of five and then four more before coming up. Parra faled to follow up his advantage and Rocco weath- ered the storm winning the last two rounds by his superior punch- ing ability. Rocco weighed 111 1-2 and Par- ra 111 1-4. Black Bill of Cuba earned the decision over Johnny McCoy, Rochester, N.Y., in the eight- round semi-final. The Cuban ne- gro was the aggressor practically all the way, McCoy preferring in- fighting and falling repeatedly into clinches. Neither boer did much damage, although Black Bill opened up on old cut over McCoy's eye and pounded away at the optic, varying hiss tyle with a solid body punch. Each man weighed 112 1-2. Billy Ayrton Toronto, 116 3-4, slugged his way to a well-earned decision over Fraink Edgerton, Toronto, 114,, formerly of the United States army, in a six round affair, Each boy scored a knockdown without a count, but Ayrton proved the more rugged battler and had a fair margin at the finish after a poor start. Tommy Mitchell Toronto, 138, won a six round decision over Al Jennings, Buffalo negro, 145. Jen- Hard Rounds nings proved a clever defensive fighter, but Mitchell led all the way and piled up enough points to give him the decision easily, Sam Hackett, Toronto, 1%6 .es, scored a technical knockout over Micey Lee, Buffalo, 129 1-4, in the fourth round of the six round curtain raiser. Lee took consider- able punishment from hardswings to the head and jaw and was out on his feet when the mix was stopped. HOWIE MORENZ NOT FOR SALE Montreal, April 9.--* "Too ridicu~ lous for denial," said Manager Ce- cil Hart of Montreal Canadiens re- garding a story which appeared 'in a local week-end newspaper to the effect that Howie Morenz would be traded to Boston Bruins for Lionel Hitchman and $50,000. "lit looks like a deliberate ef- fort to create discord in the team. 'First they have us selling Morenz to Rangers, now to Boston. Put this down: Morenz won't be sold to anybody. He will finish his pro- fessional hockey career where he started it--with Canadiens.
