Moran Loses To Dillon In Ten Round Bout

More than 20 000 fans watched Jack Dillon of Indianapolis weigh 169 pounds beat Frank Moran of Pittsburgh who weighed 204 pounds in a 10 round fight at Federal League Ball Park. Moran tired after the third round and Dillon pressed the attack as Moran bled from the mouth and nose. Dillon missed a knockout in round four but dominated thereafter with repeated blows to Moran’s jaw and body. Moran’s reach gave him some early leverage but Dillon controlled the bout. Also noted were results from a golf match play segment with Ogelsby and Owrey advancing and Bartnett prevailing.
