HE CAN HIT
 Patrick can hit like a Fenian with his right hand. He blasted out his foe of the evening, Coolidge Miller, in the third heat, to roll up his seventh straight victory. All of which looks lovely as the Lee until Miller's record is examined.
 Coolidge Miller has won exactly once in his last 1o fights. He had lost ten in row before he went in with Patrick. Off that record, he is what the trade calls a setup. So we'll wait to find out how good Patrick O'Con- nor is.
 While we're waiting; we have a few notes on some other recent fights.
 A few weeks ago they revived box ing at Ebbets Field, home ranch of the Brooklyn Dodgers, perhaps be- cause something had to be done to make up for Lippy Durocher's ab- Sence. On the opening card they tossed Tami Maurie11o a party named Jimmy Carollo.
 HE CAN HIT
 Tami, who in his spare time runs bar in the Bronx, isn't the best fighter in the world, by a long shot, but he can hit like a bung-starter. There was one wild moment last sum- mer when he sent Joe Louis reeling across the ring with a right-hand clout, startling the patrons no end and causing the Champ to bring up the heavy artillery in a hurry. Result {: the lights went out for Tami about a minute later.
 Carollo didn't belong in the same ring with MaurieIlO, as we see it. A few years back the kid took some savage beating and it was questionable whether he ever could fight again after one disas- trOus knockout in which his health was endangered. He came out of the Mauriello tangle with his face slashed up and a five-rOund kayo against him, but it might have been worse. If that was a prize fight. so is steers appointment in a Chi cagO abbatoir.
