"The business of selecting a challenger for Barney Ross is no further along than it was before Ceferino Garcia and Izzy Jannazzo fought for the title shot. Their 15 round scrap at MSG Friday night, with a November tile bout hung up as a prize for the winner, ended in a draw. With matchmaker Jimmy Johnston in Europe there was no immediate prospect of a rematch. The divided decision of the referee and two judges left plenty of room for arguments. The crowd of 5,640 was kept on edge through the greater part of the exciting bout as they traded punches freely. After the scrap partisans of both gathered about the ring to express their disapproval." -Associated Press
