A thrilling incident in the Paterson v. Harvey fight at White City, showing Petersen, the winner, finding his opponent's jaw with a straight left.

HOW PETERSEN BEAT LEN HARVEY: LOSER BLINDED BY BLOOD: WELL DESERVED WIN

HARVEY WOULD HAVE BEEN BEATEN ON POINTS IF THE TOWEL HAD NOT BEEN THROWN IN

In one of the best fights of his career, Jack Petersen defeated Len Harvey for British and Empire titles dur- ing the early part of this month. Petersen was far and away the better man, and the following vivid description of the fight is given by Fred Dartnell in the News- Chronicle.

Harvey's mothering work was very good, but the first round had only progressed a minute when he was cautioned twice for holding.

London, June 28.

Sydney Wood of America, Yamagishi of Japan, Christian Boussus of France and Fred Perry of Eng- land joined H. W. Austin and others in the last six- teen of the men's singles at Wimbledon as a result of to-day's matches.. This entailed the elimination of two Englishmen and C. E. Malfroy of New Zealand. Three overseas competitors won second round ties in the women's singles, including Helen Jacobs, Frau- lein Cicely Aussem and Madame Mathieu. Miss Dorothy Round advanced another stage, but at the Inter-Club expense of her tennis colleague, Miss Mary Heeley,

Cooper anatched the first set at settled 6-4, before Wood had down, but thereafter there was only one player in it, and Wood took the match by annexing the next three sets with the loss of five games.

Against a lively rival, who was not afraid to go for his shots, Wood displayed pleasing form: the type to carry him n long way in the event. He is without doubt one of the most serious challengera for the tlile.

Boussus did exceptionally well to overcome Malfroy, New Zealand's leading representative in straight sets. Malfroy was quite unable to reply to Boussus's severa ser- vice and piercing ground strokes which made a net campaign the easiest thing imaginable. Kowloon
