TAYLOR LOSES;
Count ELONC
Fighter Fails to Re-
turn to Ring After
Five Minutes

CHICAGO, Feb. 10.-tP1-A five
minute count" wasn't long enough
for Bud Taylor, worlds bantam
weight champion, last night and he
lost his fight with Joey Sanger,
Milwaukee fea~therweight, in the
seventh round. IL was called a
technical knockout, the first, so
far as the records show, ever mark
ed against Taylor's long ring record.
A low left hook sent Taylor down.
Referee Phil Collens-the same Of
fetal who was in the ring when
Sammy Mandell took the lightweight
title from Rocky Kansas here-said
the blow was ION the border line"
Taylor's seconds claimed a foul.
After an examination by a ply
stefan and a consultation of the
judges and the referee, Taylor was
given five minutes rest. At the
end of that time he still was unable
or unwilling to continue, and the
decision was given Sanger.
Paul Prehn, chairman Of the IL
linois Athletic Commission, said the
matter was entirely in the hands Of
the officials and the physician. He
indicated the commission would
have nothing further to say on the
subject.
The fight, which was to have
gone 10 rounds, was one Of the most
vicious a Chicago ring has shown
in many months. Sanger outweigh
ed the bantam king by slightly more
than five pounds. His straight
rights began shooting out with the
first seconds Of action, and Taylor's
chin was a frequent mark for them.
Taylor on the other hand used
left hooks, varied with an occasion
al jab, but the Milwaukee fighter
kept coming in. There were bursts
of championship power in which
Taylor's fists flew to Sangor's face
like hail.
The pace from the first bell was
exceptionally fast. Both men were
prodigai with their leads, taking
punishment without flinching in re-
turn for a chance to do damage
themselves.
Ten thousand persons, a capacity
crowd, paid approximately $40, 900 to
see the fight. 1t was the fourth
meeting Of these two boxers, Sanger
holding two decisions and Taylor
one. Taylor's title was not al
stake.

day Saturday in order to get in the
number of girls and boys games

SUFFER 4
 SHARP RELAPSE
Drop From One to Six Points
 Despite Bulls

New York. April r R-stock prlces suffered another sharp set back today despite efforts of specu- la'ors for the advance to maintain bullish enthusiasm by bidding up II selected list of oil, food and public utility shares. Losses in the actiy. issues ranged from l to nearly 6 points. So great was the volume of trading that the ticker was 5o min utcs behind the market at the end of the third hour.
 While the reaction was regarded Tn some quarters as correction of an ovcr-bought speculative position, persistent liquidation of long hold ings was reported by traders and in- vestors who were becoming increas- lngly alarmed over the credit situa- ton. The relatively low loan value placed by banks on many high priced stocks. combined with re- peated suggestions that federal w- serve authorities were not exactly pleased with recent speculative ex- cesses. tended to dampen bullish enthusiasm.
 Twenty oil shares and half q dozen or more public utilities were bid up to record high prices in the carly hours Of trading bu, part Of the gains were forfeited when the selling movement assumed broad proportions.
