Singapore, May 4, The huge crowd at the New World boxing arena last night witnessed the most thrilling contest between two bantamweights that Singapore yet seen when Frank Weber and Peter George met over ten three-minute rounds. Weber won, and won well, but George did very well, especially in the frst four rounds which he won without any doubt whatever. From that stage onwards, Weber, wie was in perfect fighting condition, began to force the pace and hitting twice as hard as the African, had the latter groggy several times.

They weighed even at Sat. 34 pounds. George had Weber guessing is the first round when he scored with a flashy left and caught Weber time and again with it Floundering in to get to close quarters Frankie was met with crisp lefts and rights to the face which slowed him up. George continued the good work in the second round, going after Weber with left jabs and smash- ing home a right with plenty of power behind it. Weber took several of the punches but came back unshaken. Again in the third and fourth rounds George did all the scoring and was easily ahead on points when they came up for the fifth."

In this raund Weber did much bet ter. Ha surprised everybody by standing upright and boxing George, and by so doing Frankie was able to place his punches with much more effect. He landed well with a left hook and right cross and took the round. The sixth saw George fighting well. It was a glorious exhibition of toe-to-toe fighting throughout this round, and Weber's punches were the more effective.
