The fight was over before it be- gan as far as Murphy was con-| cerned. The boys opened with a slugfest which was about even. Berkeley flashed out with a sleep producing right time and again, but it never landed. Murphy sent a left to the head and Berkeley came back with a left to the face.

Again on Canvas Again Berkeley seemed in pain and somewhat dazed but he evi- dently was playing possum, for he came like a streak of lightning from the canvas. A third right to the head sent him down again for a count of seven, The third time he failed to make his speedy come- back but lashed out with a strong right which never found its mark. Murphy was hitting him at the bell. Murphy sent rights and lefts to the body and head, which sent Berkeley to his hands and knees at the opening of the second round. Berkeley was counted out. In the semi-final go, Jimmy Moore took a popular decision from Chips Gleason after six rounds of !fast fighting, Moore had Gleason ready for the canvas for the last two and one-half rounds, and while he hit him almost at will was un- jable to take him off his feet.

Joseph took the bacon from White in the second preliminary when he was awarded a technical kayo in the second round of a scheduled six round fracas. White lost his fight largely because he failed to protect himself from Jo- seph’s vicious right which the lat- ter used, as they broke from the clinches.
