Woodcock-Baksi Fight Film

(By Bob Meyer)

London, Apr. 29. The old truism that "the camera never lies" feli under the shadow of doubt when ins of the Joe Baksi-Bruce Woodcock fight revealed a conscious attempt-to soften Woodcock's pitiful beating for the average British fan. The fight film is an example of "censorship by omis- sion"-but it is an understandable censorship. The common Englishman is a Wondenck hero- worshipper...When Bruce went crashing to the canvas early in the first round, the hopes and morale of the United Kingdom crashed with him.

Determined to see for herself, one young woman
