McGOORTY SHADES MOHA
IN A VERY TAME BATTLE
NEW YORK. May 29.—The middle
weight championship muddle is as far
away from solution today as ever, fol
lowing the ten-round bout last night
between Eddie McGoorty. of Oshkosh.
Wis.. and Bob Moha, of Milwaukee, two
of the leading contenders for the belt.
It turned out to be a tame affair. Me-
Gooity had a shade the “better of his
opponent on points, but the crowd was
far from pleased with the exhibition.
Buth men had promised to tight their
hardest, but when they got into the
ring they seemed to become afflicted
with stage fright.
