A Punch For The Referee

"A twenty round contest between Dave Barry of San Francisco and Jim Tremble of Los Angeles, resulted in a decision for Tremble after twenty rounds of the hardest fighting that has ever been witnessed in Sacremento, Cal.

"...When Eugene Mulvey, who officiated as referee, rendered a decision for Tremble, Barry handed him a hard swing, which, if it had landed woud have put him out of business..."
