After getting up Garcia made brief spurt and tmlled bis Filipino foe with a right to the. 'chin sending him Into the ropes daicd.

"Deubtltis they will give thtm a defense," was Jones' eutting remark. "Thst's whist I call poor sportsmanship, if Warner and Thornhill actually did that," Jonet ssid. "I don't know whether they helped Pitt or not, but it seems to me thst under the circumstsnces the best plan would have been to stay awy until after the gems. Here we are, doing our best te uphold the reputstion of the Pscific Cosst Conference, of which Werner is a member. If Warner csnnot support us he might at lesst remain aloof until after the game.
