tie no doubt, was prompted to do so by the lack 'of demand for boxers in his division. In the seven years he held the title, to -the time he retired in 1912, he was not called upon to defend the light-heavy crown. He challenged heavy weight tommy burns in 1906 and gained a draw over 20 rounds, and a year later again met Burns but lost on points over the same distance. Fourteen years elapsed before Frenchman George Carpentier went in against heavyweight champion Jack Dempsey Jersey City.

Conn close Mike Jacobs promoted the two Conn-Louis fights and Conn's blinding speed very nearly achieved him his ob jective at his hrst attempt. Conn had a two-round edge on the official cards at the end of the 12th, and when he succeeded in better ing Louis in a sharp ex change at the end of the round decided he could then and there "take" the Brown Bomber. Conn threw caution to the wind as he rushed in for the thirteenth, but the cool calm Louis parried the assault and then put Conn down for the count. "What's the use of being Irish if vou can't lose your head?" Conn asked after wards.
