PRELIMINARIES
ARE GOOD ,o,,,d |
The first preliminary was a 9-round
bout between "Wop" BromOerg anu
Young O'Toole. The difference In
size and experience made thls eAIll-
hilton a rather slow affair as Brom-
hero had the best of it at all tunes
and did not attempt to defeat MS
opponent.
THRILLING
BATTLE
The semi-fnal bout between Dutch
Heinrichmeier of Raymond anu
"Slinn'' Lee of Plentywood was a real
fight and the fans haven't got over
talking about it yet.
AS the gong sounded in the nrsC
round Lee advanced from his corner
ready for the fray and Helnnchmelef
with a pose that was IN lCselI Terri
flying leapt from his chair. Inc Ray
mond boxer circled around the ring
looking for an opening for a nay
maker, but not yet warmed up. Inns
round was slow as the boys were KIND
of sizing each other up for future rel
erence.
The second round started out with
bang as the Raymond Battler
wound Up and let go his hay maker
time after time upon "Slims's" head.
The local boy was visibly embarras-
sed. It was hard for him to fathom
out this style of fighting and in the
meantime the Raymond battler was
getting more vicious and the trip
hammer worked more regularly on
Lees bean. Finally Lee beat it
through the ropes to get his bearing
and see if he couldn't stop the hui
man windmill who had swing like
the "Wild Bull of the Pampas." This
round was Heinrichmeier' by good
margin.
The third round opened in the
same manner as the second, and the
gloves were flying fast and furious,
but "Slin" was getting on to the
style of fighting displayed by the
| battler from Raymond and held his
own, meeting the hay-makers with
straight jabs that smashed square into
Heinrichmeier's face, but which SEEM
ed only to aggravate that tighter and
caused him to redouble his efforts to
pound "Slim' through the floor. This
round was an even break with Helm
richmeier the aggressor throughout.
The fourth round was another wild
affair with the spectators cheering
themselves hcarse as the two fighters
fought with a savagery that put the
Firpo-Dempsey match in the shade
"Slim" had by this time got his
bearing and was putting in some
straight arm jabs that found their
mark repeatedly. This round was
even.
At the opening of the fifth round
it was easily discernible as the men
clashed in furious battle that the pace
set was beginning to tell on both of
them. Both Lee and Heinrichmeier
We're fighting on their nerve and lack
ed the steam to land a hay maker,
although they put all they had into
every punch. The round ended with
both men staggering and the crowd
wildly cheered as the men shook
hands after giving the spectators one
of the most thrilling spectacles Of
real smuggling ever witnessed in this
city.
After witnessing the exhibition
the. general opinion of the spectators
was to the effect that this boxing en-
tertainment put on by the American
Legion boys was the best that had ev-
er been staged in Plentywood and
the promoters are to be congratulated
for their efforts in securing such
good material for their bouts and in
their endeavor to secure real attrac-
tions for the fight fans.
