Jack Blanton, of Cliffside, and John Price, of Forest City, scheduled for a six round champion ship fight of Rutherford county, gave the spectators their money's worth. A broken finger in the fifth round caused the withdrawal of Price and the fight was awarded to Blanton, who is now the undisputed champ ion of the county. It was the opin ion of ring-siders that Blanton had the fight won on points before the injury to his hand caused the with drawal of Price. Jack Evans, of Thomasville, re fereed the match. The main bout was between two negroes, Ambrose Tay lor, of Forest City, who claims the championship of western North Carolina, and Irvin Segram, of Thomasville, who claims the eastern Carolina title.

An amusing feature of the bout was a battle royal in which seven j negroes from Rutherford, Cleveland, j Polk and Henderson counties parti cipated.
