 Weaver IS KayoeG
 Slugger Weaver started ou5 likt a certain winner in the semi windup. He drove Berkeley before him to a neutral corner and in less than 15 seconds after the fight started nailed him with a right to the jaw which floored Harry for the count of nine. When Berkeley got to his feet, Weaver covered and waded into him, jar ring him to the heels with a right handed punch that drew blood from Harry's nose. Keeping on top of his man, the Slugger floored him again with a one-two attack. The round was Weavers by a wide margin.
 But the second round proved Berkeley was still dangerous. Wea7- CT mixed it freely with him and twice dropped him to his knees. A third time, he dropped Harry, but the latter wasn't damaged much and as Weaver turned to walk to his corner, Harry arose and charg- ed, almost catching the Sluggel off his guard. Weaver floored him fourth time for the round but. it was plain that Berkeley was more or less stalling for time.
 Berkeley came out with a rush in the third. They mixed fiercely, Weaver throwing away all his sci- |enee to exchange wallops with his opponent. He tried hard for an opening to shoot through a knock out blow but Burkeley was nov ing too fast.
 As they stood toe to toe near the center of the ring, a smashing right from Berkeley caught the Slugger on the button and the fight was over. Berkeley weighed 145 and Weaver 135 pounds.
 Special Event Tame
 Although Zamorra and DeGracia showed lots of speed and some clever boxing, they failed to please the crowd which came away with the idea that zamorra carried his fellow Islander along. He seemed to be the better boxer and few punches that he launched missed DeGracia by the narrowest of margins. The draw was prop erly called.
 Osborne put up game battle against Nebles, newcomer, but fell by the wayside under gruel- ling attack in the fourth. Osborne had the better of the second when he floored Nebles but the latter cut him up badly in the third and AT spent most of the time picking himself up off the floor in that stanza and the first half of the fourth when he gave up the strug- gle He was on his feet but un- able to continue and Referee Franks gave Nebles the fight on a tech nical knockout.
 Sailor Sharkey Back
 Sailor Sharkey, clever lightweight of the United States Coast Guard who returned to town this week, issued def to the winner of the Weaver Berkeley go Sammy Nei- son and Dynamite Lawrence did the same thing. so Berkeley has plenty of competition if he wants to stick around.
 Judges for the fights were Kael Theile and E. c. Adams. Billy Franks refereed the first two and Harry Sperling the other bouts. Dave Housel handled the time pieces and gong.
