Oiuno. Cuban. iii the third round of
their scheduled tchVe-rouiitl till. a
battle which licid more thrills to the
second than the Goodrich-Vttlgcr
bout produced to the round.
Twice before the fatal knockdown
Olano was hatch to the timer in the.
third round, the first time for a
count of one and the second time
for a. count of nine. When he arose
the Cuban was groggy and helpless
and collapsed under a t'usillado of
blows to the jaw, one of which. a
right. landed \\IIIl sitt’t'icieiit tort.-
to keep the Cuban down until lief-
eree Jack O'SUIIIHlll had completed
the ten-second cotint.
Olano was beaten thoroughly. but
he was not disgraced. The Cuban
made a spectacular and dcspvrate
stand to ic'iiiain in the iotirniiiiiciit
and lost, tintply because he lacked
ring schooling. Enough was seen of
Olano to justify the prediction that
he will develop into it. formidable
fighter. if nursed llIllllg properly.
Chilean impresses Crowd.
Loayza. in \ictoi'y. appeared more
than ever impressive. The sturdy
little Chilean took l'\'t:l'yIIlIll;,' that
Olano had, \icious punches to the
body and wicked smashes on IIlF

step. It was with similar punches
that: Olonn. had slowvd the clever

of the tournament. lint these blows

save to spur the Chilean on to hard-
er and greater efforts.
Lnayzu. flashed an aggressiveness
which would not be denied i‘roni ilic
very outset. He bounded into
()lano after carefully sizing up the
Cuban. and never ceased tiring un-
til the Cuban was stretched in the
centre of the ring.
Oliino cracked several hard rights
to the heart as Loayzzt tore in
through the first round and ripped
his right and left to the jaw. and
with sufficient force to start a.
stream of blood frotii
mouth. lltit the Chilean. made of
stern stuff liiitisclf, retaliated with
it volley which had the blood coni-
lug from Oiano's mouth at the bell.
A ui'ious ekttlltllige opened the
second round and Diane. hitting
harder and cleaner, had the honors
ot‘ the rapid-fire going. After about
a minute of the of the round Loayza
crashed over it right to the law and
(llano staggered back on
groggy. Loa 'za tore after his rival
viciously, etching a knoekoui. but
tho l-ntl interrupted the t‘hilean at a
tithe when he had ()ltiito all but
otit.
Ulano responded to the bell for
the third round sprightly enough.
and it seemed ho had recovered
from the beating he assimilated in
the furious second round. But a
it w punt-lies i‘roii: Lottyza put (litino
on the. defense again. and Lotiyza
quickly took advantage of his i'lval's
plight. A right to the jaw sent the
(‘ubztn down. but he was tip at the
coun‘ of nine. It was with difficul-
ty titnt (litiiio regained his feet after
this knockdown.
When he gaincly came erect
l.oayz.t again leaped on his almost
helpless rival and battered Olano to

its second start of the season tonight

ranged bouts.
In the star event Franki: Genaro.

and persistent challenger to Pancho
Villa. will meet Georgie Marks of
Cslifomia.
Marks has been roofing up on the

a hard campaign.
Genaio, after patiently awaiting
the return of Villa. decided that the
best. way to force Villa. into a match
would be to clean up the division
and even invade the bantiamweight
class. That's why Genaro’s name is
going the blaze from the fences from
new oil.
in the second tcn rounder Tony

Johnny Kleseli. and in the third ten
rounder Georgie Levine. the clever
Brooklyn welterweight. is to com-
bat Pete Latze. one of the toughest
birds in that division. When welter-
weights are looking for trouble ye
