CROWD RAZZES BOXERS FOR
 POOR SHOWING AT LISTERS
Reimer and Angelo Have Light Workout - Kid Thomas Seems New Britain's Best Fistic Bet.

Amid shouts Of take 'em out" and make 'em fight" Bobby Reimer of this city and Young Angelo of Stam- ford, went through 10 rounds of a very light workout in what was card cd as the star bout of q boxing show last night at Jester's hall on Arch street, Referee Billy Conway warned the lighters frequently that if they did not fight they would leave the ring, but they continued their far from satisfactory exhibition and at the close of the 10 rounds the only ones really punished were the handful of fans who did not get up and go out in the early stages of the bout. The referee decreed that both had fought equally well-or equally poorly.
 In the first round it was very evi- dent that there was to be no action. Long before Timer Jack Midgeon sounded the bell to close the stanza. the crowd was calling for action, either by the principals or by the referee. In the second and third rounds the fans began to leave, In the fourth and fifth tho officials and commissioners began a protest In the sixth, seventh and eighth rounds the exits were crowded with disappointed fans leaving the hall and by the time the thing was brought to close the hall was very nearly cleared.
 The opening bout brought together Woe Willie Angelo of Hartford, and Bobby White Of this city. White pep pcred Angelo all over the ropcd en- closure throughout the first round and Wee Willie had difficulty locating his corner at the end. Tn the second frame. Angelo socked White on the chin then followed up his advantage and in a few seconds Whites handlers were throwing in spongcs and towels.
 The preliminary was carded for six rounds between Rocco Gcary Of Hart ford. and Kid Scanlon of Bristol scanlon landed some hard hooks on Goary's chin in the first round but used his head very poorly. Tho vet tran Gcary finished the thing in the second round when Scanlon was put out.
 "kid" Thomas who looks just now lilc New Britain's best bet in tho box ing game, landed few Of his crash ing Halops on Sam Sancho Of Bristol in about ono and one-half minutes of fighting and Referee Billy Conway carried the Bristol boy 10 his corner.

 "Potsy' Clark. pronounced by Coach Bob Zuppkc as the greatest aii-around backfcld star ever turned out at Illinois. was the hero Of thc occasion.
 Clark caught Shorty" Dcs Jar dlen's kickof under his own goal post and ran straight to the Chicago goslposts for a touchdown. IIc had only 10 dodge one Chicago man and this was easily accomplished. as Clark was a beautiful opcn-fcld rum ner.
