Kid Norfolk Is
Winner in Bout
With Sid Grant

Kid Norfolk Of Baltimore and New
York, best lght-heavyweight fighter
in the world II the white boys did
not bar him, knocked out Sidney
Grant OF New York in the second
round of what was to be 12-round
bout, last Wednesday night.
Incidentally Norfolk banged up a
perfectly good right hand, which may
mean that his victory so lightly won,
will in the end cost him dear.
He left right after the fight for New
York again with Bill Hewlett, trainer,
and Leo Flynn, manager, where he
will attempt to get his injured men,
Der in condition for the bout with
Roughhouse Wilson, scheduled for
Windsor, Ontario, Canada, next We'd
nesday night.
Grant Man of Mystery.
Grant, whose announced weight
was 161. is to many fans a man of
mystery. Touted in advertisements
as a West Indian fighter from the
Barbados, making his first Ameri-
can appearance. In contradiction Of
this, the same ads announced that he
had defeated Geo. Godfrey.
Found in bed at Smiths Hotel,
wednesday before the fight, Grant
told an AFRO reporter that his real
name was John Walker. and that
he is better known as the Panama
Dixie Kid. His home, he said, was
in Panama, his father being French
and his mother a native. He declar-
ed he had fought first in 1919, a
draw with Steamboat Bill Scott,
beaten Jack Dowdy, Battling Kid Of
Mobile and this year, fought a draw
with Joe Walker, and knocked out
Sandy Bokus. Evidently the talk
about a first American appearance"
is a sort Of a joke.
Fight No Joke.
However, the fight itself was no
Joke to Grant, whose white silk
trunks were wet with perspiration
after the first round. Norfolk wore
mis- usual bandage over his right
knee and purple silk trunks. AS the
bell sounded. black streak scooted
across the ring and landed a sharp
tap on Norfolk's face. ..
It took the audience by surprise
and Norfolk, too, who was busy for
the next two minutes lodging
Grants blows which showered on
him in all directions. Norfolk, still
surprised. covered. and Grant find
ing no opening, delivered a resound-
ing smack on Norfolk's kidneys. The
crowd laughed and Norfolk finally
warmed to his job. AS he sailed In
right uppercut caught Grant on the
elbow and the rest Of the fight Nor
folk nursed his injured knuckles.
Grant carried the fight to Norfolk
in the hope of getting the Kid rat
tied. Instead as the first surprise
wore off, Norfolk got in his deadly
infghting. A murderous left hand
that shot up only six inches caught
Grant on the jaw and he went down
for the count Of nine. His body was
willing, and he sailed into Norfolk
again, only to receive again that
crushing short jab to the jaw. Grant
was on the floor as the round ended,
the referee over him counting.
Last Round.
There wasn't much to the last
round. Norfolk, said to weigh 1S2,
had a 20-pound advantage over his
