SOME FIGHT,
COLUMBUS, GEORGIA, October 5.
Young Stribling has been awarded the light beavy-weight boxing championship of the world against Mike McTigue, who fought despite injury to his left thumb. Owing to the ugly attitude of the public the referee, Harry Ertle, who adjudicated the Dempsey Arst de Carpentier fight, at clared the match a draw at the end of the stipulated ten rounds, but changed the decision i con- sequence of the spectators hostile demonstration. He was subse quently escorted by the police to his hotel.
Stribling is an eighteen year old High School boy trained by his father and mother.
