stances it is interesting to analyse the situation from this point alone.

It was to far more than a mere glimpse of his skill that Wells treated the onlookers. Early in the second round he feinted with his left, and almost at the game moment Penwill lifted his arms to guart his face. Welly went for ward with an upward travelling right blow to beneath the heart.

Other blows followed, but it was that delightful bit of boxing (the feint before the blow)"which made the end of the contest visible. Came as one would expect Penwill to be the ex-guardsman stood up, although the pained expression on his face spoke eloquently of the inward suffering he was experi-Club encing from that right

Seeing that his opponent was so hurt of the body as to concen- trate on the 'downstairs defence," Wells went back to his straight lefts. He avoided Penwill's guard with the right by slightly chang- ing the direction of his left-hand lends, and, as no other British heavy-weight has done for years, so timed these punches that Pen- will was staggered by the force of lefts which might have appeared more or less pushes to those who failed, to watch for their effect.

The First Count. Just two such lefts were follow. ed by the right, and the plucky Penwill turned his head 'slightly to avoid getting the full force of the blow on the chin. Still, there was enough power to cause Pen- will to take a count of "nine.”

Then followed a quick feint to the body, Upward went Wetis's fist to the chin, and before the loser could recover from the sur- prise of the blow he was glanced again on the chin with the right, and fell to the floor.

Penwill sprawled with his eyes open, and conscious of the pass ing of the ten seconds; but the body blow just referred to, with the subsequent mind-shattering effects of the blows on the chin. combined to take the life from his legs, and he could not summon up the strength necessary to stand

is a mere sprinter and nothing else. This is a fallacy, for Gibbs has improved out of all knowledge in recent days, and is in many respects a better wing than even Jacob himself.

From then to the approach of the finish it was all a case of how long it took Wells to "bring round" his opponent in position to receive a right. No matter how Penwit went faward, he always appeared' to be running into Wells's long, straight left hand

No one could have boxed better for the occasion than Wells did. and when the affair was over it could be said that Penwill had not succeeded in landing a single clearly-defined plow,
