Wrestling and boxing boost Bowie event attendance

The Bowie Lions Club sponsored boxing and wrestling shows that attracted praise for boosting local gate receipts and supporting Boy Scouts. Boxing draws between Farrar and Masco and between Kemp and Adkins ended in draws, while Barker defeated Worthy in wrestling and O Shea beat Whitt in a scissor split. The main event saw Sammy George defeat Blacksmith Smith after a three fall match.
