Ripped from a Detroit daily (Date lost) - Big Joe McAuliffe fought twice losing one to Joe Choynski and stopping Peter Felix in the other...Chuvalo defended his North American title against Hank Griffin ripping pile-drivers to his body...Frank Slavin landed only 86 punches in a losing effort against the Black Prince Peter Jackson...In their rematch Sullivan got the referee's decision over Joe Goddard but got pelted by garbage from the crowd...Janos Ruthaly the Austrian heavyweight took the European championship from Charlie Mitchell in the latter's first defence then informed the press he had changed his name to Jack Root...
