Williams Gavilan Fight Officials Pressed For Decisive Call
New York Eddie Eagan, head of the State Athletic Commission, seeks three referees with nerve and wisdom to judge Friday's ten round non title bout at Madison Square Garden between Ike Williams and Kid Gavilan. After suspending two officials from the La Motta Villemain card, the panel faces a clash of styles and a close pair of previous decisions. Williams won the first meeting in 1948 while Gavilan edged him in 1949, with Goldstein's draw influence cited.
