Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: Down but not out: Gil King of Akron, Ohio, hits canvas at feet of referee Harris Davis for third time in fourtin round as Clyde Gray's flying feet (left) head for neutral corner in last night's welterweight fight at the Gardens. King, who lost by technical knockout, appears to be asleep, but he got to his feet again and began throwing punches at the Toronto fighter, nearly starting a wild brawl. Gray floored King five times during short fight and delighted the crowd of 7,000 which also watched two other bouts from the U.S. on closed-circuit television.
