In the sixth Eddie rushed out of his cor ner at tho sound of tho gong nnd proceed ed to mix things Up. Ho landed several stiff blows, nnd when tho champion fell Into a clinch they wrestled all over tho ring, McAndrews trying hard to tear him self loose. Freddy proved to bo tho bet ter man at catch-as-catch-cnn, however, and pushed his opponent to the floor. Mc Andrews was up In nn Instant, but ho stumbled ngaln when ho missed a vicious right swing. Then camo somo regular fighting. Too to toe, they slugged each. other, Welsh holding his ground nnd not onco back ing up. When tho bell clanged they woro Btlll at It, and tho houso was In nn uproar. Neither heard the gong and Itoterco Frank O'Brien was forced to separata them. Duck Flemmlng nnd Eddlo Kelly, of Now York, put on tho best bout of tho ovcnlng, Flemmlng winning after six furious rounds. The local boy boxed tho best bout of his career nnd almost won by a knockout. Kelly nlso mada a good showing, as ho worked under a handicap throughout. In tho first round Flemmlng dropped tho New Yorker with a right to tho Jaw nnd had him In distress In the first min ute, Buck also opened n bad cut over Eddie's eye nnd tho blood partially blinded him. Kelly weathered tho storm, however, nnd mado n good fight of It. Had he been more cautious at the start, Flommlng probably would havo had somo trouble. In tho other bouts Sid O'Donncll and Joo Koons boxed a draw and Eddlo Fox won from Joo Lavlgne. Sailor Czarmanskl, of the good ship Oklahoma, U. S.

Tho sailor took a terrlflo lacing, but not onco did he falter. He kept coming In for more nnd wna anxious to continue when Frank O'Brien stopped the bout. Czarmanskl ran Into squalls In tho opening chapter when Kenny dropped him with a right to tho Jaw. Our able seaman was up In nn Instant, however, and forced the fighting until tho end of tho round. Ho landed several stiff wallops on the landsman from Brooklyn, but Bert was not worried. In tho fifth round tho "Czar" went down twlco under a broadside of heavy blows, and as he was sinking for the third tlmo the referee throw him a life line and towed him ashoro. lishing the best record In any league to date, having registered ID victories and have been beaten twice.

Ho sees no barrier In his ninictlon. In n dual track meet between tho West Hranch Y. SI. C. A. and tho Vlctrlx C. C. last Saturday night fio crippled atUcto, wcnrlne tho colors of West Ilrnnch, cleared tho bnmboo bar nt 6 feet 8 Inches, tying t3arl WIndhovcl, nlso of West Hranch, nnd several jears ago ono of tho best schoolboy high jumpers In Phila delphia. Moreover, he defeated Sid Smith, who represented Vlctrlx, nnd Jim Ilrcchl men, ono of the foremost all-nround ath letes In Philadelphia nnd a standard bearer of tho West Branch. Fine Performance Spectators woro amazed when It was announced that young Fcndrich hnd suc ceeded In tying Wlndhovel and dofeatlnB Smith nnd llrcchlmen. Until Saturday night followers ot truck athletics know as little of Fcndrich as they did of John Paul Jones beforo tho t'ornclllnn defeated Tell llerna for tho mile run In tho 1011 Intcrcolleglates. They little thought that a Ind, recently graduate 1 fro- tho ncs ton Grammar School, and handicapped by a malformed leg, could ever hope to win prominence ns a high Jumper. Friends of the promising young high Jumper explained after tho meot that Kendrlck, who Is n novice, as far back as his primary bcIioo! days wns fond of athletics, and hail It not been for his zealous deslro to play baseball, regard less of tho condition J.' tho diamond, ho would still possess nv, normal limbs. Began Early While, Fcndrlck was still In knicker bockers ho Joined a class of youngsters In u ball game on n, vacant lot near tho school. Tho lot was not suited for a playground, ns treacherous holes and earth mounds lurked on all sides. A ball batted along the ground was likely to tnko an ugly bound and lilt ono of the players In tho faco, or a player running after tho ball was almost certain to tread violently In one of tho pitfalls. Tho boys, however, wcro living In that reckless nge when dangers are never seen save after some one Is Injured. A high fly was lofted In tho direction of young Fendrlck, who started after It, head high In tho air. Tho outcomo was almost Inevitable. Fcndrlck, I'lithlnklngly. run ning ns fast as his two . ' -ong legs could carry him, started In the d.rectlon of a deep hole. A half hour later, nfter tho physicians had mado an examination. It was pro nounced that the young ball player had broken his kneecap, and mat tho growth of tho leg would ba exceedingly slow. Tho prediction was exact, for today, seven or eight years later, tho leg Is no ticeably underdeveloped and weak. In splta of his Injured lee, Fcndrich Is B. REED ono of tho most optimistic lads in tho city. Ho Is firmly of tho opinion thnt in years to comn ho will outgrow tho result of his youthful accident. "There's no use fretting over a llttlo thing llko a bad leg," he said yestorday. "Of course It nffects my take-off, but I'm going to practice U3 often as possible to develop my strength nnd form. Other fel lows may havo nn advantage over me. but I nm not discouraged and expect to get up to C feet 10 by tho tlmo of tho out door meets." Fendrlch is so cntliuslnstlc over per forming fonts Impossible for natural de veloped lads that yestorday, with snow on the ground, ho donned n track suit und practiced several Jumps In tho school yard.
