Gorman Wins Ten Round Bout Over Alexander at Forum
Gale Gorman outboxed Ralph Alexander in a 10 round contest at the Forum last night, cutting Alexander’s face and maintaining constant pressure with a versatile left. The crowd saw Gorman press, dance, and connect to a clear victory while Alexander wore a crimsoned cheek and fought hard to respond. Also, Albert Knipp stopped Blondy Gies in two rounds, with Gies unable to continue after a series of rights and Knipp's decisive punches set the climax of the undercard.
