New York, Feb. l9.-LP)-A rein

heavyweight king,
A new Boston "strong boy" buAy
Edward James Maloney, hammered
Jack Delaney, light heavyweight
king, to defeat in 10 Undetermined
rounds last night before the largest
throng that ever jammed Madison
Square Garden.
And with Maloney's decisive victory

a decisive margin OF 81 pounds-and
u mercless attack that never knew a
backward step, defeated Delaney.
From the opening gong. the Boston
giant threw his bulk onto his l72-
pound rival Two massive arms drove
gruelling smashes through the best
guard the Bridgeport, Conn. ravier
could offer while a flinty jaw and
bullying muscled body absorbed the
mightiest shots of Delaney's crashing
broads ides.
Maloney Awarded Six Rounds
The result was inevitable. Most
ringsde critics awarded Maloncy six
rounds by decisive margins. Delaney
two by a shade, with two even.
There were no knockdowns. Al
though Delaney's vaunted. right hand
smash and uppercut landed clean and
true on Maloney's jaw time and again,
the Boston bludgcon was too big, too
strong, and too stepped in reserve
power to be forced to do more than
shake his shaggy head like an irri-
tated grizzly and crash forward for
more.
The result was a startling upset in
view Of the 10 to odds on Delaney

debacle, however. came word that the
sparkling French Canadian in the
third round had aggravated an old
thumb injury. suffered in the last
match with Paul Rerlcnhach Al
though the thumb was badly swollen,
it was not definitely established that
the bone was broken. Otherwise the
total visible injuries consisted of e
black eye for Maloaey and cut lips for
Delaney.

The rise Of Ma!eney in the heavy
weight division had been spasmodc
up to last night. In his 81 ring con-
tests he has scored ID knockouts and
won 10 decisions. He was knocked
out once, by Leo Gates. the Indian,
in four rounds in 1924. After winning
from another Boston favorite, Jack
Sharkey, in 10 rounds in 1924, Ma
loney lost to his fellow townsman
twice in i925-onee by decision and
again on a foul. Maloney is "a years
old and has two children.
The fight was part of Tex Rick

Publication is being made of
some seven thousand interpretations
over the state about to have their
franchises cancelled. This action
is to be taken if the reports of the
last two years are not filed with
the Secretary of State at his of
flee in Cheyenne prior to the time
the proof of publication of the can
