Wills Outboxes His
Man—Gets Decision
By Referee Sullivan
BOYLES THIRTY ACRES, Jer
sey City, Sept. 12.—Harry Wills,
known in pugilistic circles as the
“Black Panther,” easily gained the
unofficial decision over Angel Fiiipo,
“the Bull of the Pampas at the
end of 12 round no decision fight, in
the presence of ninety thousand peo
ple.
Wills stepped out into the lead
with the opening of the gong and
never once relinguished it for the
rest of his fistic journey.
In the first round, Wills dropped
the South Amt'rican to the canvas
with a stiff right to the jaw. In the
second round, a terrific punch roped
' Firpo and all of his bull-like strength
j couldn't retain him so as to stand off
; the terrific beating which was in
j store for him and which he took from
; Wills before the end of the round.
For the remainder of the bout the
i Negro employed his usual tactics of
hitting and holding, and Firpo being
punished severely by the methods of
Wills’ fighting protested to the ref
eree, Danny Sullivan. Firpo’s pro
I tests didn’t help much as Wills, thru
the entire bout used the same unfair
way. Firpo was on the defensive
during the entire bout.

victory here yesterday when Judge
Caverly of the Chicago criminal court
pronounced sentence upon Richard
Loeb and Nathan Leopold, sell con
fessed slayers of the Frank boy in
one of the most revolting murders
the country has ever recorded in
recent years. The two youths, the
elder of whom is scarcely 19 years
of age, were sentenced to spend the
remainder of their lives in prison,
life being imposed for murder and
99 years for kidnaping.

unmoved by the prospect of going to
prison for life. They did not indicate
.either that welcomed escape from
i death, and showed no remorse over
j their crime.
Public sentiment is very bitter over
' the miscarriage of justice.
| The judge in passing sentence re
, iterated his belief that the two fiends
I are of normal mentality and were
| normal when the crime was com
I rriitted.
