Only One Fight Fails To Go Distance
GALLIE'S GAMENESS
Copenhagen, January 10. Great Britain's team of amateur boxers drew at four wins each in their match against Denmark here to-day. About 7,000 people, includ- ing the Crown Prince of Denmark watched an entertaining pro- gramme.
The only match that failed to go the full distance of three rounds was that in which G. Brindley, the Polytechnic cruiserweight, was beaten by a technical knock-out in the second round.
C. Gallie (Cardiff) put up a great but unsuccessful fight against Cervin in the feather- weight match, which. was the best of the day. They fought at top. speed throughout. Gallie was floored by a left hook to the jaw at the end of the first round and was only saved by the gong, but he recovered well,
