Most of his old tricks were in evidence at some time or an- "'her. He played the rope spring as of yore and bathed and scraped and bowed, but a rood deal of the elastic- it" appeared to have deparud from the hitherto nimble feet. it did seem that with just half lhr steam that he used to carry Dundee would have finished 0! Duffy last night. in straight boxing he was away ahead and the only time Jimmy ap- peared to relish it was when the two were locked arm in arm. and then he measured uppercut for uppercut with 'Scétty )tonteith's llEhl't‘lL'hY, The trouble with Duifv seemed to be that he has taken a leaf out o.’ Dundee‘s book and so tar has not w' learned his lesson. At times it was almost ludicrous the way the two stood courtesylng toeachother in the centre of the rina, for all the world like a pair of turtle doves in a cage. Dundee missed too many of his leads and swings for him to impress the fans as tit-int: in the best at fortn. Jimmy missed too. but men llu'ttiec is a hard hov to hit. In the cooks-t manner iniazinahle the Italian frer quentlv‘ walked right under his oppo- nent's outstretched arms and came up primed to deli\'er a blow. In almost every round Dundee tried something new on Duffy. For instance. he began by standin: up for the “"4 round in the middle of the ring. hop. ping it little more in “W tmood swine- lng with all his pow" in the third and in the fourth he favored the ropes leanln: back at every opportunity and comin: out like art arrow released from a bow.

Johnny would walk in, take a few little etcps as if warmint: up for a foot race. shift. and then crash home his glove. Then he hopped a little more and the other more went home. And Duifv was as powerless to stop the blows as he would be to keep off the rain with a soldier's swag- ger stick. There was only one punch. however, that looked like the brand the fans- are always clamoring for. It was a snappy right swing to the point or the chin which Dundee landed on Dquv in the middle of the sixth round. In- stintively Dutfv tried to counter with just such another, but it was appar- ent that his vision was dimmed by c. million stars by the way in which he swung a yard wide and away to one aide. Dundee tried to follow this one, but Jimmy shook the cobweb: out of his brains, and in an instant war- as composed as ever. A CAMP DEVENS TEAM BEAT- EN AT GWENEcTADY SCHENECTADY.
