Harvard Varsity Eight Starts First Practice on Charles
In a boxing night at the Armory Kubiak of Michigan drew with John Wille of Chicago after a hard, tiring bout. Kubiak showed strength but lacked the decisive punch and telegraphed his blows, while Wille used clever defense to counter the Michigan giant’s infighting. The semi final saw Manning beat Furey on a foul after Furey backed him through the ropes. Furey earlier led but went wild. Young Jack Johnson stopped Belfield Walcott in two rounds as the referee halted the beating.
