Chet Brown beat Jack Bowlin by RTD at 3:00 in round 2

• Date: 1921-08-06
• Location: Natatorium Skating Rink, Medford, Oregon, USA

Chet Brown made short work of Jack Bowlin, the latter being finicky about the spondulicks he was to receive, and refused to appear until he had been assured that the purse was $50. A gent with a southern drawl made a speech, and the crowd threw half dollars until the shortage was made up, whereupon Mr. Bowlin appeared, and the main event proceeded.

The first round Bowlin managed to keep out of the way, but in the second he was floored. He stayed down for a count of three, arose and tore into Brown, and was knocked down again. The referee was kind to him again, and he arose, and was saved by the bell. Bowline wobbled to his corner, and after a pow wow with his seconds threw up the sponge. Bowlin is a member of the Salvation Army, and preached on Main street one night this week. He has a fighting heart but Brown was too fast for him.
