UNPOPULAR DECISION FOR ROSENBLOOM

Light-Heavy Champion Finds His Match

JIMMY MILLER'S CLEAN HARD PUNCHING

New Orleans, Apr 10. The light heavyweight · box- Ing champion, Max Rosen- bloom, gained an unpopular decisión over Jimmy Miller, of Detroit, in a ten round bout here, to-night...

Miller, the 22-year-old former Olympic champion, carried the fight to Rosenbloom throughout and dazed the champion with a terrific right to the chin in the final round. Rosenbloom cavorted about the ring and retaliated to Miller's clean and hard punching with his well-known slapping tactics.

One judge decided in favour of Miller, and the other WBE for Rosenbloom. The referee also picked the champion, giving him the decision. The United Press.
