ST. JOSEPH, Mo., April l.-(8pecjal
Telegram.) Ray Bronson of Indianapolis
wa tonight awarded th decision over
Clarence English of Omaha In a fifteen
round I eiteat.
The battle was a furious affair from
tart to finish, In which Bronaon'a clever
nee and youth waa matched against the
ring generalship of English. Bronson
depended largely upon his atranght Jab
to the faoe and stomach after Enguab
had made hi mlsa In awing after awing
In an effort to land a haymaker.
English used a right chop effectively
and early In the fight opened up a gash
under Bronson' left eye. English also
devoted much of hi effort at awing
right and left-to the Jaw, which were
effective.
Branson's kidney punches weakened the
veteran English, and toward tha end
of the eighth his punches lacked steam,
while Bronson, who had been playing a
waiting game, became more aggressive
as th finish drew near.
