SUDENBERG ANL
DELANEY FIGHT
10-ROUND DRAW
One Judge and Referee Call
Bout 1 Draw, While, the
.Other Jurge Gives
. Delaney Decision.
Jimmy Delaney of St. , Paul and,
JohnnySudenberg of Omaha fought
1Q rounds to a draw last, night at
Fort Omaha. t
Two judg'es, Gene Melady 'and
Tommy Mills, and Referee Denny
Ryan handed down the decision.
Two called the bout a draw, and one
gave it to Delaney,
The popular verdict evidently fa
vored Delaney.
Each man put up a great fight,
Sudenberg, a bullish, aggressive bat
tle and Delaney, a clean, clever one.
In the siitth v round Delaney
claimed that he had been fouled. ,A
majority of the crowd and one., judge
supported the -claim. Referee Den
ny Ryan, however, disallowed the
claim and after a rest of three min
utes the unfinished sixth round was
called complete and the bell sound
ed for the seventh.
Omahan Heavier. , v
Sudenberg weighed 167 at the
tingside and Delaney 162.
Sudenberg did all the leading in
the first two -rounds. Delaney
showed exceptional ability to use
his feet and every punch wet)t
straight to the mark with a wicked
drive behind it. The Omaha lad
missed often and many ofhis blows
glanced away without effect.
In the second round Delaney sent
home a hard left to Sudenberg's
mouth, and followed it with a volley
of rights and lefts that drove the
Omahan to cover.
Sudenberg's mputh started to
bleed.. Relaney's punches always
took effect whereas Sudenberg's
were often wasted.
The fighters clinched frequently
and in every clinch Sudenberg found
time to put over one to three good
wallops. '
But for those blows the Omahan
would doubtless have "been "licked."
Delaney and Delaney's supporters
appealed to the referee to keep Su
denberg from hitting in clinches.
In the fifth round the St. Paul
by landed another vicious right and
followed it at once with a left that
overbalanced the Omahan and sent
the latter stumbling through the
ropes.
Delaney Lands Often.
In the next round Delaney fought
Sundenberg back against the ropes,
putting in hard jabs from each hand
constantly. Coming out Sudenberg
landed a terrific left in the pit of
Delaney' stomach, and followed it
with a. punch that Delaney claimed
WS5 a foul. The St. Paul lad withered
under the blow.
Delaney showed the mark of the
punch after the fight to prove his
claim.
Referee Denny Ryan allowed both
boxers' to rest three minutes and
then brought them together again
for the seventh round.
Delaney opened the seventh
round, fighting like a wildcat. He
backed the Omaha fighter back into
his corner with half a dozen hard,
fast jabs to the face. Sudenberg
clinched and drove home some more
of his clinch-punches that evened the
round.
The eighth and ninth rounds wer
even, both men fighting hard.
Sudenberg raced fronvjiis corner
in fhe tenth and fought for a knock
out. Delaney met him half way and
warded off the attack by clevfer duck
ing. The bell found them both in
the center of the ring trading
punches. '
Although .the main event was
"worth the money" .and) more, the
preliminaries were every bit as good.
. Ralph ' Spellman , of Omaha
knocked out Young Bryant of Fort
Omaha in the third of their sched
uled six-round bbut for the opening
preliminary.
Young Moss was given a referee's
decision over Ja,ck Ryan of South
OmaWa in-six rounds. Young Blum
was given a technical knockout over
Kid Spurley, when the latter re
clined in t ring to save himself the
trouble of fighting. Spurley quit in
the, second, round of what was in
tended to Jre a six-round "battle."
Harry Reed of Lincoln was given
a referee's decision over .Battling
Garrison of Omaha in six rounds.

Louis Tracv. Appearing first as an
English army officer, anjL later as a
sailor, the star was seen to the great
est advantage in a role that for real
dramatic value .has seldom been ex
