about on even terms in scoring
when Brown exploded with a
savage attack in the eighth. He

right and drove him across the
ring into the ropes.
Zulueta bulled and bobbed his
way out and stayed up the last
half minute of the round. Then
when Brown failed to follow up
in the next round, zulueta went
over to the attack.
Judge Eddie Leonard and Ref
cree Benny Goldstein turned in
identical cards, four rounds
apiece for Zulueta and Brown
and two even. The Associated
