TINE question of what to do with
Marty Gallagher may be an
swered, temporarily at least,
when the former pride Of Foggy
Bottom steps into the ring next Tues
day with Bob Tow at Portner's Arena.
Marty. to all appearances, actually Is
training. He didn't look so bad in
beating Les Kennedy and his showing
was enhanced when Mr.. Kennedy
turned around and whipped Reds Barry
to q frazzle. But that one performance
did not atone for all Of his previous
failures.
Bob Tow licked Marty last Summer.
II he does it again Tuesday 1t is prob
able Gallagher will be retired for an
other year or SO. But If Gallagher
turns around and pins Tow's ears back,
1t is likely another Kennedy bout and
several others will await the big Irish-
man, depending, OF course, upon how
he fares.
THE bout most critics are sweet on
i Tuesday is the Roddy Davis
Bucky Taylor scrap. scheduled for
eight rounds.
Roddy is a fast-stepping lightweight
and looked upon as really promising.
Taylor, heavy Baltimore feather
weight stepping up to the lightweight
class, licked Billy Essinger and Nick
Antonelli handily and is likely to extend
Roddy to the limit.
