Who Won

P: Tough little Thomas ("Seaman Tom") Watson. British featherweight champion, who was humiliated last fortnight when N. Y. Athletic Commissioners publicly doubted whether he was competent to oppose first-rate U. S. fighters: a 12-round bout--after being knocked down three times in the first two rounds--against sluggish Fidel La Barba, one-time world's flyweight champion, who was a 4-to-1 favorite; in Madison Square Garden. Seaman Tom's reward: a fight against Cuban Kid Chocolate (who was last week being refused entry into the U. S. by immigration authorities), for the featherweight championship of the world.

P: William Tatem Tilden II: a "farewell" tennis match in Manhattan against German Hans Nusslein, No. 2 man of the Tilden troupe: 6-3, 6-2. By "farewell," long, lean Tilden, theatrical as ever, meant it was his last match in Manhattan--at least until after another tour of the U. S. and a tour of Europe, starting June 1.
