l l l

A new Island heavyweight boxing champion was crown- ed liisi. night iii the Forum‘ when Jim Evans of Irish- fown exceeding by far the fondest hopes of his most ardent supporters shelled ‘defending champion George Leslie into a two round de- feat. It was a sudden and unexpected ending to a fight that hzid been expected to lust. much longer. But .last - night it ivas all Evans in the short time the bout lasted. Stalking his opponent and ‘waiting for an opening that ‘failed in make its appear- l once, Leslie saw his crown go l in the final thirty seconds of lthe second just after he had l landed three blows to Evans’ ‘ face. But Iicslie’s attack. his ‘first. real move 0f the fight ‘offensively. only served to ‘make a wildcat of the Irish- down “Bomber”. Coming off like ropes he caught Leslie ‘ with .1 wicked left that spelt ‘the beginning oi'_ihe end.

. Lcsie crashed to inc canvas but lhe was liurt badly and failed to ‘take advantage of a count. But lisvans drove right back at him as ‘he climbed to his feet and again the

sourls boy toppled forward. This ‘time he took a count of four but l~he was wczivin: badly as he arose.‘ ‘Again the new champion tore in‘ . savagely and Leslie went clown‘ again. l

But. there was no doubting the‘ lcourage oi the champion as. he Iaroso cure more. Bleeding badly at I the mouth and with his 0X95 Smw‘ ling a glazed look he put up his

llllll(i5 11211111 to hold off the “Bomb- lcr". But there was no stopping l the new ilhnmpioii. This time with ‘Lmslie ulidc open against the ropes ~hc lct go uiili ii terrific left to the giuw and lhc half-mad fans rose " io thcii- frct as ovc. There was no ldoubiing but it ivos the end of a. ‘ game champ. Tito bell went to cud ithe round but Lciflie was out cold

and his seconds rushed across the

ring to hid thc fiillcn battlcr.

There was little evidence in the

first. round of what was to happen ‘in that. ihrfiing dramatic SQCOXld session. Coming out at. the bell Leslie displaying confidence kept ‘on. staiklng the challenger. Evans ‘circling. ever circling landed the only blows of the round but the‘ ‘champion seemed willing to takel lthem and ulait for his openms. ‘ But that. opening never came.‘ ‘Still sticking to his plan of battle‘ ‘Leslie let. Evans do the leading as‘ ‘ the second got. undeiwvay. Sudden-, lly with a minute of the round left‘ l Licslie sprang to the attack to pum-i lmcll Evans around the ropes. But ‘Evans aroused tore into the champ. ‘one. two. three times Leslie went: ldown and there was no arising as‘ ‘he kissed the canvas the fourlhl ‘ timtx A new champion was crowned.

The half-hind capacity crowd of
