The gross receipts totalled $43,0000. Good Fight The fight was a hard one. Apostoli’s superior boxing, plus sharper punching, carried him to victory over Lee. Apostoli used his advantage in weight, height and reach to good advantage, and thwarted Lee's attempt to find an opening for a kayo punch The courageous Lee however, kept boring in, taking a punch to land a body blow but his battle plan fell short Opening Rounds Both boys felt each other out in the first round. The pace quickened in the second. By the third round, Lee and Apostoli were trading smashing rights and lefis. Lee concentrated on the body in the fourth, but occasionally let fly long rights to Apostoli's head. Apostoli hurt Lee midway in the fourth with three straight rights to the chin Apostoli kept flicking his left in Lee’s face throughout the fifth, while the Nebraskan took sevi shots at Freddie's mid-section Lee and Apostoli exchanged dam- aging punches in the sixth. It was the same thing in the seventh, with Lee boring and and Apostoli coun- ter attacking. Eighth Round The eighn was a hard round with neither man gaining much of an edge. Lee lost the ninth for a low punch. Apostoli had an edge in the tenth. Fred's sharper punching took the eleventh. Both boys tried to land knockout ,punches in the twelfth. Apostoli found his target with hard wallops in the thirteenth Apostoli countered beautifully to win the edge in the fourteenth and fifteenth rounds. e OXFORD BEATS CAMBRIDGE BY OVER2LENGTHS War O. U.
