BUTLER OUTFIGHTS COLLIER IN
ELKS SMOKER, GIVEN DECISION;
OTHER BOUTS ARE INTERESTING
Outfighting him for five out of the
six rounds of the bout, Ford Butler,
Chilkoot Barracks soldier, lifted the
Alaska heavyweight crown from .Joe
Collier's keeping at the Elks' big
smoker last Saturday evening. But
Jer’s victory was decisive, Collier
never having a look-in, and the de j
cision of the three judges was unani-j
mous. The verdict was a popular I
one with fans.
The soldier scrapper's ring gener j
alship, his knowledge of the gam*' i
hitting power, ability to box or slug j
aggressiveness, and speed were all!
superior to Collier's. Time after
time Butler beat him to the punch
Collier's exaggerated crouching do ;
tense was more la evidence than j
ever before and most of tha time j
he was behind it.
Butler Heavier Man
The men entered the ring about 9:4r,
p. in., Collier entering first, followed I
immediately by Butler. Both were
apparently in fine shape. N'o weights
were annnouneed. but Butler seemed
to bo a little heavier of the two,
slightly taller and probably with a
slight advantage in reach.
The first round was about oven.
Neither boxer extended himself, .both
being content to feel the other out.
Idttle actual fighting was done in
this round, not a single solid blow be
ing landed.
Knockdown in Second
A right cross to Collior's jaw, land
ed squarely by the soldier In the
second round, seemed at the time to
threaten a quick end to the match.
Both men came from their corners
quickly at the sound of the bell
Both missed swings. Butler forced
the Indian back toward his corner,
and, feinting with his left, snapped a
right cross to the jaw which knocked
Collier to* the floor. Taking the
count of nine before rising, Collier,
although groggy, was able to weather
the round. Butler apparently made
little effort to push his advantage.
Collier began his crouching tactics
after the knockdown, bending his
body on a level with his knees. Time j
and again in this and the succeeding'
rounds he dropped into this position, I
Butler landing repeatedly on the j
back of his head and to the kidneys
with vicious blows.
Collier on Defensive
The Indian had virtually recovered
from the effects of the knockdown
when the third round opened, but I
adopted defensive tactics, which, ex
cept for brief flashes, he kept up
throughout the rest of the fight. But
ler landed with lefts high-up on
Collier's face and a right to the body]
In this round. He kept up his
punches to the kidneys when Collier
retired into his turtle-like crouch.1
Up to this time. Collier took them
smilingly. He tried to rally twits;
but Butler beat hiip to the punch
and covered cleverly. Ho showed no
marks. Collier had not yet landed a
single solid blow.
Butler Blocks Comeback
In the fourth round, Collier marl'
his only serious bid to stop the bigj
soldier. He met the latter’s advance
squarely and after a brief interval |
of sparring, shot his right across, I
connecting under Butler’s eye and;
jarring his head. The soldier cov-1
ered neatly and soon forced Collier
back on the defensive. Butler again
scored with straight lefts to the face;
and head and repeated blows to the
kidneys.
Butler tried hard to land haymak-l
ers in this round, missing several
sweeping swings, one of which,
whirled him almost off his feet. He
recovered his balance bv touching
the tip of his glove to ihe canvas. ■
He again tried to feint Collier an 1
use his right cross, but the Indian I
iblocked the right with his arms.
Fifth Is Butler's
In the fifth round Butler again I
took the aggressive, his speed prov-j
ing superior to Collier’s and his
blows to the kidneys beginning to j
take the smile from the Indians!
’aco. In this round, Butler almost
rlosed ono 6t' Collier's eyes and
landed a smashing right swing on
die Indian's mouth. When the latter
went into a crouch, Butler’s kidney
alows brought him up with a pained
expression on his face. Welts were
Beginning to appear where the blow?

Collier Weakens
At the beginning of the sixth round
'’oilier made a weak effort to land
i sleep producer, but Butler was too
' i-t, boxing wide open an I taking
he Indian’s punches on li is arms
tnd shoulders Me landed both lefts
ind rights to the Indian’s head and1
>ndy. bull could not connect with a
rital spot. Collier's damaged eye!
was almost Closed and his lips puffed :
tn l swollen. The punishment he i
tad taken from Butler’s blows to
he back and head had weakened
tint considerably and slowed down
tis work. The sixth round was But-!
er’s by a ‘big margin.
Decision Applauded
The decision for Butler was unani
nous, most of the judges giving him
:verv round. Ho showed no sign,]
)f fatigue when the closing hell
lounded and the only marks he car
ded to indicat > lie had heen in a
iglit were slight obtusions beneath
tis right eye and on his shoulders,
ho former where Collier landed a
solid smash and the latter where!
he soldier blocked the Indian’s of
’orts to reach his head and jaws.
Butler's training at the post was
tnder the direction of Corporal Lep
rell and Sergeant Schumacker. Eu

tnd the three men were in his c ir

Beaudin Outclasses Reyes
In the semi-final Art Beaudin was
then a well-merited decision over
Reyes, a Filipino boxer who hat i
teen touted as the etitial of Jo ,
'’.trios. Beaudin had the edg > on I
Reyes throe out of the four round

ner was on the aggressive the gr .’

toys were about evenly matched but

tnd out-thought the Filipino all the
wav through. Neither man w.i
