HIM. Hawkins v, Public School The boxing at the Carlton on Saturday night between the Shanghai Public School and the H.M.S. Hawkins produced an exciting even: ing's sport. The school Inds were by far inferior in age, size and weight, but they fought pluckily ang in two bouts the School defeated the sailors.
'The first' event was for fy weights, when Herzberg met Haugh of the Hawkins in a four round bout. Herzberg was about four years younger but was very quick on his fect and a clover eye. Although his punches were not half so hefty as Haugh's he was given the decision, which he well deserved. Then two featherweights met when Castle clashed with Karanjia. The former is a good boxer and a hard hitter. During the four rounds Karanjia stood up to very severe punishment.
'The third event was between bantam weights. Tuttleman, for the School, put up a good' fight, against his older opponent. He is a clever little boxer, but his punches were not powerful enough to t sufficient effect, and after the first two rounds he slacked down and eventually lost the verdict.
Event four, which was between Marine Doherty (Hawkins) and Herzberg (School) commenced very scrappily. For the first two rounds Heraberg put up a good show, but could not keep it up and clinched a lot in the last rounds. The decision was given against him. After the interval a blind fold exhibition was aged between four of the younger. school boys. This occasioned a lot of laughter.
The middle weight contest_was between two men from the Hi kins. All the four rounds were scrappy and Stoker Murrell won the bout on points from his op-Ponent Pearce.
The fy weight affair between Stoker Lee of the Hawkins and Greenberg of the School was stopped in the third round when the towel was thrown in on behalf of the School boy.
The last event was a welter weight contest between Jackson (Hawkins) and Johanson (School). This pair was evenly matched in age, size and height. The fight opened in a steady manner but in the latter half of the first round Johanson showed some quick punch: ing, delivering hefty blows. I opponent received a deep cut on his eye in the same round which seemed to handicap him. The second round opened with Johanson attacking and showering heavy blows to the face with soon brought Jackson to the ground. Jackson got up after the count of five,-but as soon ax Johanson's first connected with his jaw he went down again for
groggy, and one more punch sent nine, He again rose this time very him down for the full count.
