Times, Referee Stops
Struggle in Seventh

The fighters-not the fans-took
a beating last night at the ball park,
with AL Reiss, gamester of first
water, giving them a thousand per
cent return on their money before
losing on a technical knockout to
George Parks in the seventh of a
scheduled ten round feature.
Some unscheduled behind the
scenes excitement was added to the
uproar halfway through the pro-
gram when Eddie Daley, veteran
boxing commission inspector in
charge of the dressing room, COL
lapsed from heat prostration and
was removed to Emergency Hospital.
He was sent home after receiving
treatment.
Reiss. scheduled to entrain for his

observation. He spent comfortable
night. according to hospital officials,
and X-rays were to be made today
to determine the full extent of his
injuries.

first round and as many times again
In later sessions before Referee
Charley Reynolds, acting on the
advice OF DR.. John de Mayo, halted
the brawl after 81 seconds of the
seventh. But before that 1t was a
question of which fighter would
collapse first.
Parks, a muscular Negro with
potent right, had almost a IL
pound pull In weights, despite the
ringside announcement of 179 for
Reiss and 18l for Parks, and used
it to good advantage in the Carly
going. He clipped AL on the chin
before a minute of the opening
round had elapsed and the Detroiter
went down. Twice again he dropped
him, but each time Reiss climbed
to his feet and resumed the battle.

rounds Reiss concentrated on Parks

The colored boy couldn't take it
downstairs and was tired to the
point Of exhaustion. But he snapped
out OF 1t in the sixth, landed more
rights to the head, increased the
