In Chicago Fight

CHICAGO, Feb. 27-Tod Morgan,
Seattle, Washington, worlds junior
lightweight champion, slashed ms
way to ten round victory over Don
Davis, California, in the main event
of boxing card in the East Chi
cago arena last night.
The champion carried the fight to
his opponent in almost every round
and his punches carried plenty of
steam. Davis was wont to do too
much punching with open gloves.
Davis appeared cautious during
the first few rounds and especially
so after Tod had caught him on the
chin with left hook in the second
round and had him groggy at the
bell.
The challenger stepped out in the
last round and surprised the fans
by standing toe to toe with the
champion and slugging it out. The
result was a whiriwind finish with
the tenth round honors even.
