JOHNNY KILBANU, premier fcntbcrwciglit, performed lifro last night and managed to grab the dccIMou from Young Al Clmocy, o Baltimore, in seven Blow rounds ami one fust oun. Jnlinuj whs entitled to whatever lienors there were, but bis work did not male n bit villi the crowd. Ho um expected to undo in nnd luock Chancy for u three-bagger light off the bat and, when he failed to conic through, the howling mob howled as orJy a bowling mob can Kilbane evidently was trying himself out and allowed Chancy to tnko lols of liberties with him. Tim Baltimore youngster gained confidence at the bout progressed and inado it more difficult for the rlmmplon lo mate a creditable showing. In the first, 3ohnny just fought on Ihc defence, blocking lends and laughing nt the futile efforts ot his opponent to laud n telling wallop. In tin second, Chancy rushed out of his comer to end tlilugs then and there, but col lided with n btiff right to the chin vliieh almost knocked him on his back. Johnny, however, did not follow hi advantage and allowed Young Al to ic cuperate. From then on, 11 was a very elow affair. In tho third, the crowd began to hoot and it was worse in the fourth. In this lound, Clianej did Ids best work. He did nil of the furring, while Kllbauc did nothing but clinch and box a de fensive batttle. JOUXXY started with a msh in iho sixth and landed a few hard wallops, slowing Chancy considerably, but again did not step in and finish hit man when ho had the opportunity. Kilbane landed a stiff left to iho fwsc in this session, and Chanej um bleeding at Iho bell. Chancy Punished Severely in Last Round THE seventh was another tame round, but it was different in the eighth. Johnny slopped his fooling and started after the Baltimore boy hammer nnd tongs. He was like an unleashed tiger and thirty seconds after the gong had sounded. Chancy was staggering around the ring with Johnny landing lefts nud rights almost nt will. He tried hard for a knockout, but the IiImu cither were too high or missed altogether. Chancy had wonderful rcoupcral uc. powers nnd also took lots ot punishment m this wsion. Killmnc uoicr let up until tho bell ended the battle. ITad he started this rally sooner the bout never would have lnted Hie limit. Johnny never gets started until it is too late and takes too main chances He does not like to inflict punMiment until he has to. That's :i bad habit for a champion when he is uomus a stroug, rugged boy. He is likely to stop a wild swing with his hlu some day. The bouts were held in the Armory over here, and a large crowd was pics cnt Tubing from New York was u pleasaut pnMitne for those ou the other side of the incr, but the natives had n ciuch Most of them walked. l'.oing is Tery popular here, however, for the customers nrrhctl at 7:.'!0 for the S:"0 show.

There alio it at a gent iehn whittled n few bail, jmt to show that all irhiitlei hale mil gone dry. Al Reich Takes Successful Wgh Dive in Third TnC next best number on the progiam was the high-dhitig contest between Al Reich nnd Tom Cowlcr. Due to tome mistake, the lioys did not wear fiendgeurs like football players. That would Uae made the act mure llnilliiig and cauied less wear and teai on the head, licich ditcd three times and the Inst time failed to come up. Ho was plastered all over the ring b Cowlcr, who, by the way, lemaiucd on his rect during the entire performance. Tom really inflicted punishment and ltcich i pally took it. In the fiM Tom had nil the best of it, and in the second Itcielr tried to balance liimselr on bis chin on two separate and d'stiuct ccaslous. All of this was such a big surprise that Al Lippo was speechless. It was such an unusual oicurrcuee to seo Cowler soaking the tar out ot another bloke that Al wautcd to know what it was all about. Then came tho third and linal art. Reich tried to send Cowlcr to the mat just once, but Tom refused to do that little thing. Instead he walloped Al on tho whiskeis nnd Al did an Annette lelermami. The drc so imptcssed Jimmy Johnson that ho tn-cd water in the ring to mnko it more irnlistie. Tiiat ended the contest, for llcferce Danny Siillixnii nvtuidcd the crdict In Cowler ou n foul. That wasn't nercssnrj, howoer, for Al was Ihiough for the evo and wouldn't have arisen to the surface nt the count of "."0. Cowlcr looked better than ever before, but that's not stiauge when joii liguro it out. Tom kept his feet and did not pass oft iuto assisted slumber, as was usually the case, nud they nil look good when not stretched out on the canvas. Cowler now can challenge Spike McPnddcn. , That water-throwing episode was hometliiug worthj of mention. .Word ing to the rules, u boxer cannot icceive a-sistanec'oni his seconds while die bout is in progress, and if he does he is disqualified on a foul. Johnson broke the rules nnd Danny Sullivan without hesitation stopped the liout. Of course, Iteich was on tho floor at the time, and it was doubtful if he ever would arise, but Danny cared nothing for that. He made his decision and the crowd was with him. m OULL1YAX, by the teay, is one of tho younger referees and is oo of tho best I 7iure seen in some time, lie is fail, luiawi iho game, males ihc boys fight and will he a big success. Phila delphia promoters would make no miitakc if Sullivan wero tnvitnl to officiate m somo of the big eoniests. Ila is efficient and fear lets, and those arc tho things which make a good ring official. Jeff Smith Scores K. O. in. Substitute Art rpHERE were other bouts, one being n substitute affair. Harry Greb, who was booked to collide with Augio liatuer, was taken ill nnd canceled. Itatner, by the waj, is a very tough person nnd would haio gien Harry a stiff argument. Ifovccr, he refused to meet Jeff Smith, of liajonuo, and Jeff wa3 forced To meet a gent named Coyne. Mi. Cojne lost all interest iu the proceedings in the second round and was swept off. Gene Tunney, light-heavyweight champion of the A. T3, 1, was stacked up against a terrible ham named Hob 1'carce, of Chicago, aud won in two rounds. Pcirce had ono cbnnco in a million and still was looking for (hat chance when his seconds tossed in the sponge to prevent murder. Tunney had theamo effect on him as wood alcohol. The A. K. V. champion has been highly touted, but ho still has a lot lo larn. He does not deliver his blows properly nnd seems to bo shoulder-bound. Tcrhaps ho will work this out after he engages in a few moro batltlcs. , 'VHEItU was a great littlo fighter in tho preliminary. His name is Al Zimmcr and he hails from Cleveland. Johnny Kil bane brought him East, and take it from us, that boy will bo heard from later. Ue outclassed Joe Smith and was handing him so many slams that Danny Sulliian stopped ihe fracas In the second round. Wall Street JVins in Battle With Curb A S AN added attraction, a couplo of broker's clerks boxed in the curtain raiser. It was a four-rounder between A'all street and the Curb market. "Wall street won because he remained on his feet. Many of our prominent I'biladelphtans wero at the ringside. .Too Griffo, most recent referee at the National, got an eyeful of bow ring officials act over hero, and was much pleased. Jack Hanlon, matchmaker of tho Olympia, stood in the rear of the hall Until tho wind-up and then boosted Kllbanc's work to tho newspaper men. Kii bano boxes at the Olympia ntjxt Thursday.

(Juitc a number of words wcic used up without nnj definite verdict being i cached, so the case is still open fur further inspection. The list is a bulky one. The jcar was replete with sprightly surprises and swift nclion with uunicious engagements of laic interest and surpassing merit. Thcic was no international upiisiug to speak of nothing to compare with the polo matches nnd tho Davis Cup battles of pre-war jcars. along this lin.
