Freddie Welsh, of POntypridd,

won the worlds lightweight pugilistic
championship from Willie Richie, Of

Referee Eugene CORR gave the Bri
ton the verdict on points at the end

It was a battle between cleverness
/ and ring generalship against strength

Z Welsh knew that he had no chance
to win in smuggling with the world
champion and wisely adopted other
tactics. using a straight left to the
face and getting out of danger when
Richie let go a blow which would
have meant a knockout.
From start to finish the two men
used all the cleyerness at their com
mand, and the spectators were de-
lighted at their work. Some Americans
at the ringside thought that the worst
Richie should have received was a
draw. but the mass of Britons were
crazy with delight when CORR an.
nounced their man as the winner
Both men were pretty badly marked
up on the face and Richie finished
much the stronger.
From the outset it was evident that
Richie did not want Welsh to pile up
a lead on light points. for the Ameri

ent and tried to make his superior
