another fatally stabbed. Six others,
including two sijuaws. were seriously

be a six round go. From the start
Gehriiig began to force the fighting
and the I.000 spectators applauded
every time he landed a Mow. Abbott
protected his face with his hands and
tiie body blows he got wc;*e when he 1
was retreating. The tirst two rounds
looked like honors would be even tit the ,
end of the sixth round. Abbott was
. waiting for an opening to get in his
rig-lit and led Gchring on. At the be
ginning of t he third round he got the
opening he wanted and landed a stag
gering Mow on Gchring-'s neck. Gehr-
ing tlien became a little more cautious
and again Abbott beetime apparently 1
careless. He led Gchring on and when
he got the opening- he wanted, he made
a half right arm swing and caught
Gehring under the ear. Gchring’ fell
hut was up again in eight seconds.
Abbott measured his distance and
again let his right go. This time he
caught Gehring on the point of the
jaw and Gchring went down and out.
