Physicians declared the cause of Brody's death was cerebral hemorrhage. Officials of the district attorney's office today began an investigation of the case. Reports from the ringside stated Brody was floored twice in the ninth round, being rendered virtually help- less by the heavy blows landed by his opponent. He gamely struggled to his feet after - going down the second time and Pitcher landed heavily on his face and jaw. Brody again fell and Artie McGovern, who acted as referce, awarded Pitcher the decision. Pitcher, McGovern and several men who had places in the hoxers' corners were detained for a time, but were later released on their own recogniz- ance, agreeing to appear at once if wanted. e FOX'S Next Mon., Tues., Wed.
