Fifth Round

Chicago, Apr. 2. Joe Louls, holder of the world's heavyweight boxing championship, last night successfully defended his title when he knocked out Harry Thomus in the fifth round of a scheduled 15-round bout.

Louts, who weighed in at 14 stone bs, against his opponent's 14 slone stone, won in decisive fashion, gain- Ing every round.

The knock-out came after 2 minutes 30 seconds in the Afth round. In the third round, just before the bell, Thomas sat down in his own corner, and in the fourth he went down for counts of eight, seven, uine and seven.

He went down again in the Bith round, for no count, and rose to meet a barrage of left hooks to the jaw from which he tried gamely to rise but fell back on his haunches and was counted out,

The champion scored with hard lefts to the head and body. Thomas occasionally got in with his right but mistimed and then in the fifth round, Louis scored with a succession of lefts and staggered Thomas with a stiff right.

Louis sent Thomas down for no count with a left hook and then came the barrage of hooks which proved to be Thomas's finish.--Reuter.

Loula Gels $10,650

The gross receipts of the fight were $40,000, of which Joe Louts received $16,659.05 while Thomas's share of

was $5,200,14,- the gate money Quited Press.
