• Referee: Ed Shave

~ Time: 2:10 ~

Professional debut by Faeth, a former baseball manager and a pitcher, who had taken up boxing only two weeks earlier. Faeth "burst forth with speedy blows in hopes of an early knockout. A right cross to the chin gave Faeth time to meditate while the referee counted to nine. Then Shires gave him another right. Faeth was carried to his corner, Shires assisting. Greeted with 'boo's,' Shires demanded: 'Does that guy resemble Dan Daly?'" United Press
