REUTER HANDS
SPANISH KID
A KNOCKOUT
Two former Cordovans. Earl Reu
ter and the “Spanish Kid”, appeared
at tife firat smoker of the newly form
ed Ketchikan Athletic Club and gave
the boxing fans their money’s wortl
in. a go, which is described as follows
by the Times of that city:
Ht “In the main event Soldier Earl
Reuter clearly demonstrated that he
carried a wallop in either hand and
would be a formidable opponent foi
any of the top notch lightweight box
ers in the game today. Reuter is a
clean built chap of a middleweight
tapering down to the narrow hips
slender legs and small feet of a lighl
weight, combining speed and strength
o^a remarkable degree.
“From the first tap of the gong botl
men tore in in a way that removed
all doubt from the minds of the spec
tators that they were both out to win
After a wicked exchange of blows
Renter stretched the Spanish Kid or
the canvass for the count of sever
with a wicked left to the chin. Ur
at seven the Spanish Kid rushed Reu
ter to the ropes and pushed him hall
through them. Reuter was up ir
an instant and with a fusilade oi
Iwbdy blows drove the Kid to the op
opposite corner where he staggered
him with a left to the chin and whip
ping over a well timed right to the
jaw put him down for the count ol
nine. The Spanish Kid was groggs
when he arose and backed away tc
mid-ring where Reutor following rC
.lentlessly shot a straight right to the
jaw '•which ended the fight. The
Spanish Kid was up after taking the
count of ten and while the knockoul
was a technical one it was clear tc
every one present that Reuter was the
master of his opponent. We should
like to see Reuter in action again foi
lie is a clean fighter with a punch in
either hand and would put up an in
tereeting match with another good
man.”
