Victors Via Kayo Route S«rmour Tohnsoa Field's own little Madison Square Garden flusteri^ with excitement, brought obout the sixth boxing oord held at the Sports Arena last Wednesday night. The American spirit and ^ility to fight were tangible when both colored and white fought herd even when the chips were slacked up against them. PopxUor FH. Jimmy Jackson, colored ace, won his fourth straight victory in the series of shows thus far. He outclassed, outpxinched and literally knocked Bernard Mauser out of the ring during the outstondlng bout of the evening. Jack- son floored Mauser four times in the first round and would have scored a clean knockout, but Mauser wos saved by the bell as he lay on the canvas bleeding. He was unable to come out for the second round, and the referee awarded Jackson a TKO. BCMknlok Oeis Ned The first flcbC of the evenlzig brought together pete MMknlck and Waldo BilsmlDger. They sparred evenly for a abort time, then Pete came through with a hard right whlA dropped Waldo for nine. Row- ever. he was far from licked and came back to score heavily, with both ri^ts and lefts which had Macknlck hanging on at the bell. They traded very hard blows to start the second, and Macknlck was looking very well, until Ensmlnger suddenly came through with a short hard right which dropped him for four. Waldo kept coming In but couldn't catch Pete with anything solid. Ensmlnger started the third with a rush, but took twenty of punishment going iMick and was floored for nine agsdn. His nose was bloody at the conclusion a^ the decision went to Macknlck. Game Btrt Green A game USy who didn't know to quit eau^t tee crowds fancy but took It on the chin in tee second fhtet.

It is a crucial set of games teat tee 799te will participate In, too. If they can manage to take both of tee fracasea, they wlD climb into the league leadership as their opponents are the first position 801 and the second place latb Mess Group boys.
