Rushcutter Bay — Sampson v. Palmer.
Tho reappearance of Ambrose Palmer, Australian heavyweight champion, at Rushcutter BayStadium, next Monday night, March 26, will ex
ercise a public attraction. This time our boywill face what is regarded as a pretty
'
stiff
opposition — American Marty Snmpson, whose lastseven fights have been won by the k.o. He is
young and active, and is said to be a craftyand weighty puncher.
Palmer's exhibitions are uniformly good. Honover allows a fight to become tedious as a
spe.ataci.ti — and the opposition must make a
Stand or taste speedy defeat.
The battle will be over 15 rounds. Supportscomprise: 4 rounds, Myer Grace v. Jimmy O'Dea;6, Bill Davis v. Young Heeney; 8, Billy Brett v.
Les. Strickland. Prices are 10s, 5s, 3s, and 2s(plus tax) ; usual booking agents.
