Finally, the girl dashed out Of the

more important to him, he has just
picked up several Currier and Ives

collection.

even and two justly belonged to
Jack Dempsey's man Galeno.
ToWs right arm was hurt badly
and Galento displayed greatly

Even the Newark fans, 1900
strong, who stormed the little
smoke-filled. low-roofed arena
arena which is Laurel Gardens,
over across the river, booed the de-
cision, and thus Tony's trip to
Tow's boudoir to shame-facedly
admit the Northern New Jersey
boxing officials had slipped him
"doity DEAL
Bobby too took a nice. long
early lead, gobbling up the first
three rounds by wide margins.
He fought in an unorthodoX
manner. leading with his right.
and following through with his
left, but he connected constantly
and in no time had Galento's
eyes popping out.
The fourth round was even.
It developed later that Tow
threw out his right arm in this
inning, but this defect was not
observable to the ringsiders un-
til the seventh when Galento
had his best round, but only
after Tow had taken the fifth
and sixth. The eighth went to
Tow by a shade. he having
slowed up and the ninth was
even and the tenth Galento's
by plenty.
Summing up all that, Tow's
three-round early lead, together
with two good rounds in the
middle of the fight, a shade
the better of the stand-up and
drag out eighth, the Virginia
visitor couldn't possibly have
lost the fight except by knock
out. which never materialized.
Tow fought the best fight of
his career, Harry Groves having
brought the bus driver around
to excellent form and condi-
ton. The spectators, sensing
Tow's workmanship and the
manner in which he completely
knocked down Galento's vicious
left, early in the fight were COM
menting of Tow's cleverness
and. to a large degree, finally
swayed their sentiments in his
behalf.
Tow'S superior reach took care
of everything Galento had to
offer and at no time did Bobby
let Galento's rushing, left hooks
and uppercuts waste their full
fury on him. Those he caught
were spent and Tow most of the
time got in hard lefts and rights
to Tony's head as he came in.
Tow is hitting harder than he
ever did before and his boxing
is improving. l am sure that in
a local setting. even some of our
presistently ineffective officials,
would have given the duke to
Tow. But let Tow's loss slip
for the time. 1t isn't vital. The
thing is that it was a great fight
with brains and courage drop
ping heartless decision to
brute force, hog-tied and lassoed.
