to Law 7, moved by the Scattish F.A.. in which they) sug- gest that the goalkeeper shall not reerive the ball into his hands from a goal-kick by another player in order that he may kick it into play, but that the ball must be kicked direct from the goal area into play.

KID BERG LOSES

HIS TITLE

Fight Stopped

(By Fred Dartnell)

Kid Berg, the British lightweight champion, sensationally lost his title to Jimmy Walsh, of Chester, at the Liverpool Stadium last month. The referee stopped the fight in the ninth round, after Berg had been severely punished.

given

Berg's injured ankie had way and he was limping painfully when the referee intervened.

INGLORIOUS EXIT

The match, as everybody knows, had been postponed four times and with all due sympathy to Berg It would have been better if he had never fought at all.

It was a pitifully inglorious exit for the man who had the respect of countries all over the world for his dauntless fighting quality..

Last night Berg was a pale ghost to his old battling self. He made the "weight all right and there was only two ounces difference between bim and Walsh.

One expects to see Berg coffe out at the start to produce his familiar imitation of a human cyclone.

What we really saw was Walsh walking calmly into his opponent, smashing four thumping rights to the head and then with a left book to the stomach sending the champion to the Boor for a count of nine.

This was a sensation Indeed. The Chester man had already struck a key note of victory.

Even as early as this Berg's, nose was bleeding, and in the next few rounds, under the continuous bom- bardment of left-handers to the face and body and rights to the head, the Londoner looked in a sorry plight,

Walsh was far too speedy for hin boll in footwork and hitting.

Berg had made the poundage at a fearful cast. When Walsh Jabbed him with his straight left Berg would fatter back on his heels. He had no

guard against the left hand and,

morcover, every time he endeavoured to go to close quarters to carry out tattoo on the body Walsh would get inside and Berg's trump card of al- tack would be folled.

Covered in blood, some of which spattered the white flannels of the referee (Mr. Moss Deyong), Berg struggled gamely and painfully. Ho hardly-landed a serious blow-on- Walsh, but the Chester Ind's left eye was cut in a collision during the sixth

It was pathetic to watch Berg. He clinched his teeth and fluyed his arms menacingly, but all the scoring was done by Walsh.

In the seventh round Berg was very lottery on his legs, and still Walsh rocked him with blows from either

hand. Walsh took no risk, but he need have had no fear, for Berg was in such distressed straits that he had po punch left in him.

CAME UP FOR MORE

The eighth round, was rather tame, but as he walked towards his corner Berg collapsed and could hardly drag himself to his seat.

He was utterly spent and in obvious pain, but like the gladiator of old he Conquered weakness to come out for another fight in the ninth round.

It was hopeless.

Walsh drove him relentlessly to the opes and a game champion went down gasping. The title, which was his for less than 18 months, had slipped from beneath him.

The referee helped him to his corner and as he lifted Walsh's hand In taken of victory Liverpool hailed the new champion.
