Ryan had been an idol among llstle devo­tees for years. He was thought to have a good deal more science than Sullivan". A few who had sized tip John L. at his t rue val o.c realized that his powers of .endurance were such tha t hecould s tand all-the pun? ishment Hyan could give by reason of su­perior. seieue.e_n.nd -still be able to win the light, but the majori ty were not off tha t mind, and when Hyan lost then- was a tremendous howl of aversion toward Sul­livan, who won mainly because he was so s t rong hecould s t and a l icking tha t would floor Hyan wi thou t much more than winc­ing .

"Of course I unders tand tha t Sharkey is no second Sull ivan; Still those .who hold that, Sharkey ' s lack of height is tho chief obstacle in the way of his reaching a remarkable level as a prizefighter are by no means a l together off their base.

Old T i m e n n d M o d e r n F i g h t i n g : . "lTut, after all, there ' l l never lie the old

Onoof tho greates t de­l ights of « real prizefight comes in the ef­forts, which a lmost always used to be suc­cessful, by the fighters and their friends to eludo the authori t ies . If you 've ever rend Cohan Doyle's 'Rodney Stone, ' you know-how they used to havo to dodge tho Eng­lish sheriffs in tho old days. The annals of all old t ime prizefighting are full of such episodes, bu t no th ing llko i t ever takes place any moro either in Eng land or here. Q'he prizefighters of today nnd their backers aro ou t for the cash mostly, and the way t o ge t money is to box wi th gloves, not to fight wi th uncovered fists.

" O n o o f tho last bnro knuckle, l ights I ever a t tended was between Michael Dwyer and J i m m y Ell iot t . I t was pulled ofT a t l/>ng Point .

" N o one desirous of lH-ing in a t tendance except the fighters themselves went to bed nt all the n igh t before tho fight. All had gathered a t Krle. whence it. was known the fighters would s tar t for the scene of action. A s ta tement of i ts location was given nut-at midnight .
