Reimer and Wakz Box Tamest Mill of Night—Morley Bests Palitz in Whirlwind Battle. Sammy Waltz and Bobby Reimer boxed a tame 10-round star bout last night at the Church street Auditor- jum, Hartford, the Hartford boxer having an edge at the close. It was the old story with Reimer being un- able to put any steam behind his punches. He used a left jab through- out the mill, that kept the Hartford boy away from using that deadly right smash of his with any telling effect. The bout that had the fans on their toes was the 10-round semi-final be- tween Dave Palitz and Mike Morley, both of Hartford, as Hughle Rorty puts it. It was a case of experience against youth, and youth won. Mor- ley surprised even his most ardent rooters by the way he held Dave at bay, and in the closing rourli he that worried Palitz. Morley was clearly the win- mer. In the curtain raiser, Harlem Tom- my Shea won a knockout victory ovel “Irish Johnny” McGuire, who was an- nounced as a recent arrival in this city from Belfast, Ireland. The lad from the E -erald Isle was holding his own until ‘n+ fatal ninth when he was droppeu i.r the count. On arising he looked in bad shape, and the referee stopped the mill much to the chagrin of ‘“Irish Johnny.” McGuire made his appearance in the ring with the colors of the Republic of Ireland around his waist. During the middle of the battle he commenced singing Irish airs while battling away at his adversary. With a Ittle more exper- ence Mac will do.
