Bobby Reimer of this city went down to defeat at the hands of “Red” Allen of Bridgeport, "in six that were exciting throughout, and brought plenty of applause. Up to the time that Referee Willis stopped the battle, Reimer had put up a very good battle. His work was entirely satisfactory, and he - succeeded in landing some fine jabs in the region of the “Red” on numerous occasions. Allen on the other hand, was unpopu- lar by his tactics, at times. The first round opened with the boys going to each other in lively fashion, and Allen managed to pile up a slight lead. 1In the second round Allen was hissed slightly by his hitting on the break. The round closed with honors sven. 1In the third round Reimer jabbed Allen several times, but they did not seem to worry the Park City battler.

Cohen won the admiration of the crowd by his zentlemanly tactics in the third round when Shugrue slipped to the floor. Cohen deliberately walked away from his adversary and made no attempt to hit, until Shugrue had again “got se In the final stanza, Shugrue ‘kissed” “Sapper” on the chin, caus- ing him to hit the boards. He took a count of eight and rose slowl rushed to a clinch. Johnny was top of him and rained several blov that had a kick in them.
