tioned McFarland for hitting low.

several hard blows at close range

close quarters almost at will. The
ninth was pretty much of a slug
ging match In the center of the
ring, with honors about even
Bronson appeared to be getting
stronger, but a rain of blows to the
face and body staggered him in the
tenth, and he was holding on when
(he gong sounded.
