"A crowd of slightly over 20,000 was on hand at Forbes Field last night for the first boxing show to be presented by the Rooney-McGinley Club. In what was listed as the main bout of the evening, Charley Burley won a unanimous decision over Fritzie Zivic after piling up a wide advantage through superior boxing skill. Burley kept his left jab in Zivic's face through most of the fight and thus prevented the harder hitting boy from gettting started." - The Charleroi Mail
- On the undercard of this bout was two 10 rounders featuring Teddy Yarosz vs. Al Gainer and Sammy Angott vs. Petey Sarron
