TrembIe Defeats Toler
The final preliminary was the sched-
uled six-round bou; between the old
war horse, Jim Tremblo, and Ed Toler,
an eastern scrapper. They went IN
at about 175 pounds and the fans gave
| them a great reception, indicative or
their desire to see scraps between the
| big boys, rather than between the lit
| tie fellows. By the time this bout was
called there were no vacant seats to
be seen anywhere in the house. 1t
was one OF the largest crowds that
has been at a local boxing show in a
| long time.
The first round was a beautiful
farce-comedy. in which Toler almost
| convinced the fans that he never saw
a padded mitt in all his life before.
He danced ABOUT, making funny gy-
rations and actually started to hit
Tremble once, but, evidently, recon-
sidered his decision. No damage what
ever resulted in this round. The sec
ond round was so funny that the fans
had to hiss in their delight Toler was
about as big a joke as anything ever
seen on the big circuit. The third
round was more serious, Tremble quit
ting his kidding and going after Toler,
landing several stiff wallops to the
| head which staggered Toler. The lat
ter began bleeding at the nose and
| mouth IN this round. After about a
minute of fighting in the fifth round,
Referee Blake stopped the contest.
| Tremble smashed Toler several stiff
ones in this round and had the east
ern boy bleeding again. The fans were
not a bit pleased with the bout as
| their catcalls and Kisses indicated.
After the TrembleToler bout the
fans were in a bad humor and impa-
tient for the main event boys to ap-
pear. While waiting fol the fighters
to appear, Announcer Leslie intro
