MCGRORY HELD TO A DRAW

London, November 9. Johnny McGrory, British feather-weight champion, failed to produce his best form in a drawn contest over 10 rounds against George Williams. (Wales) at Bristol.

The champion was on top in the early stages, but. Williams made a gallant rally towards the finish and shared the honours by his magni- ficent defence. Early on, McGrory connected with lefts and rights to the body, but Williams scored fre quently with lefts to the head while boxing at long range.

Germany's challenge for the world motor-cycle speed record will be attempted by the above.
