"Len Matthews, 19 year old Philadelphia lightweight, scored his 10th straight victory Tuesday night by punching out an 8-round unanimous decision over tiring Henry 'Pappy' Gault of Spartanburg, S.C. The undefeated Matthews, who had won all his fights by knockouts, had Gault reeling throughout the fight. The shorter Gault moved into clinches but Matthews combinations to the head and body drove him off." -Associated Press
