Papke Comeback Fails In Brooklyn Bout At Clermont Rink
Billy Papke, former middleweight champion, attempted a comeback against Jack Smith at the Clermont Rink in Brooklyn. The ten round bout drew boos as Papke, weighing 161, and Smith 158, fought a cautious, uninspired match, with Papke narrowly earning the decision. Spectators numbering about 2,000 left dissatisfied as the crowd jeered the lackluster performance and the geography of Papke’s return. The story also notes W C Durant’s election as president of General Motors, Standard Oil of New York raises naphtha export prices, and Federal Dyestuffs & Chemical increases capital to 1.5 million.
