Rugby took a leaf out of the Soccer book the other night. London's White City Stadium, the first-ever Rugby Union match was played under floodlights. Harlequins and Cardiff, the pride of Wales, were the clubs to make this bit of rugger history.

London, Oct. 19.

Dai Dower, 21-year-old Welsh miner, won the Empire Flyweight Championship when he outpointed Joke Tull, South African holder, over 15 rounds.

It was Dower's first ever fight for a title and the first time he had boxed 15 rounds. He has now won all his fights since turning professional after boxing in the 1952 Olympic Games at Helsinki, where he reached the quarter- finals.
