Hall, he won under wraps after two rounds from Ford But Ter of Juneau, one time heavy weight title holder of the Terri tory. The Indian belabored the white mans ribs, and then crashed through his guard with a right to the jaw, dropping him to the floor in heap. The bell stopped the count, and seconds dragged the fallen boxer to his corner. They worked hard to revive him during the rest period, but to no avail.

It, like the last, was an Indian vic- tory Billy James, 139 pounds, won from Pete Vilardi, Filipino, 135 pounds, by technical knockout in the fourth round, Referee Billy Franks showing excellent judg- ment in stopping the contest. James was on top of Vilardi from the tap of the gong in every round.
