From the Chicago Daily News...New York Evening World cartoonist depicts Corbett and Sharkey as decision is announced after their 10 round draw at Coney Island...At the Pacific Athletic Club Big Joe McAuliffe picked himself off the canvas in round one and proceeded to take the war to Frank Slavin putting the Australian down 5 times before referee Hiram Cook called a halt...An errant elbow opened a gash over Slavin's eye in the second and caused it to swell up and close shut by round six...
