Norfolk’s ruggedness as- similated most of the Battler's sav- | aze attacks, while the Harlem Negro | kepl up a steady, withering onslaught Siki started a wild rush in the final round and rocked Norfolk with a suc- | cession of smashing lefts to the chin. | Both missed wild blows and Norfolk | rushed Siki to the ropes, battering him about the jaw. Siki tried hard to | connect with wild swing, but the Kid ducked away and came back with smash to the head. Norfolk joited Siki on the chin as the final bell sounded.

Both slowed up the | pace but the Battler retained his smile as he went to his corner. Siki was groggy under a battering attack | to the head in the 10th, blood stream- ing from cuts on his eye, nose and Hps. He made few returns to Nore 1olk's attack The Preling s, Kddic Burnbrook o amp bird, Md., army welterweight | plon, gained the judge: | Harry Galfund of poklyn in a 12- round semifinal bout.
