The Omaha morning bee., 1924-01-20

W1-s> last night, may ap-
pear in the main event of the blue
coats show.
Joe BrOol.man, eastern welfer.
who recently jumped into the spot
light Of fightdom by winning over
some of the best boys of his class
in the east. will probably be Schlaif-
cr's next opponent.
Schlaifer showed a lot of improve
ment in his fighting last night. He
isn't clever hoy and never will be
"a Shade or n Schoell. but he has i'm
proved in his footworll and boxing
t,reat deal. He boxed better against
Doyle and hit cleaner than he has in
nis previous bouts
Doyle was the best boxer of the
two and his lightning-lilSe left
found landing place on Schlaifer's
Jaw and eye many times during the
evening. lie also scored many times
with his left i'm tight quarters. At
times the New Yorker made
Schlaifer look bad by side-stepping
or ducking wallops.
While Doyle fights on the order of
a Shade or Sehoell, Schlaifer was
The aggressor throughout the bout
lie chased Doyle around the ring,
landing with lefts and rights that
for the most part hit Doyle's defense.
or the 10 rounds we gave Schlaifer
lhe seventh, ninth and a shade In
The tenth. while Doyle got the first
aud fifth in our opinion. The rest
" ere even.
Doyle Clever Fighter.
Doyle is clever on his feet, one OF
the cIeverest of all welterweights who
have appeared in this city. but he
wasn't aggressive and was more IN
@,iined to hop on his little bicycle
md paddle around the ring. Every
nee in while he would put on the
irakes, get off his bike and mix
it'll Schlaifer, and when he did. he
generally got the worst of the In
ghting. Schlaifer was the better of
he two when 1t came to close quar-
.ers, but when it came to fighting
out in the open Doyle had it over
he local fighter in every way like
a Cadillac has it over a Ford
Giving away four rounds, the New
Yorker exhibited brand of foot
work during those 10 rounds that
will live long in the memory of ring
side fans. He stepped about on his
two pins with the ease of a Joe
Lynch and would shoot out his left
and pull it back again as a guard, al
ways scoring with this member.
Doyle wasn't kidding himself about
the way 1t was going. He wanted to
aa lad In, IA
and Paul took that course when he
let loose left to the body with every
thing he had in the fifth. Morrie
msnfully stood up for another blow,
so manfully In fact, that q second
later his left cut through the air to
land on an exposed chin, and Doyle
fell against the ropes. ducked Schlai-
fer's follow up blow and went into
clinch.
Both Hand Out Punishment.
schlaifer handed out punishment to-
Doyle just like the New Yorker
dished it out to Morrie. There were
times during the 10 rounds that both
essayed to slug. Whenever this hap
pened the crowd was treated to a
rare dish and 1t was always Doyle
$yho sought cover in the clinch.
That Doyle had respect for Schlai-
fer's punches was evident IN the
second round when Morrie cracked
Paul on the Jaw with his left. The
easterner then climbed right UP on
the seat Of his bicycle and started
peddIIng. Schlaifer was the aggres-
sor from then on and while he gave
ground. Doyle also gave punishment.
In the very first round Doyle
caught Schlaifer on the jaw with
his left. The wallop upset Morrie,
but the Omaha battler found his
bearings in a moment and set about
TO make the evening a sorrowful one
for the visitor.
Outside of the first round when
lie caught Schlaifer off balance
Doyle didn't have the Omaha welter
in much trouble lie caused Schlai'
fer a lot of worry by pecking away
at his eye with his left, but outside
of that didn't have the kid" In
bad way.
schlaifer had the best OF the In
fighting and it was in the tight quar-
ters that the local welter sent home
some telling blows. Doyle seemed
to slow up in this round and appeared
sort Of tired.
Starts After Doyle.
Tn the ninth Schlaifer started after
his foe in regular wildcat fashion. He
rushed Doyle from the bell. He
caught the easterner with a left that
made Paul break ground Again
schlaifer landed and Doyle started
swayng as II the. evenings labors
had been bit too much for his over
wrought nerves. lie was slapped with
another left hook and the bell rang.
1t was about the best round of the 10
for Schlaifer. and Doyle. no doubt.
was glad to hear the bell. although he
was In no great danger OF hearing the
brides twitter their musical notes.
Doyle's best round was the fifth.
In this stanza he kept sticking his
left in Schlaifer's face until Morrie
