  • Date: 1924-12-09
  • Location: Crystal Pool, Seattle, Washington, USA
  • Referee: Adolph Schacht

According to the Seattle Times, Harper dominated the bout after the 2nd round. Harper took the first round, held Roberts even in the 2nd, and then dominated in the 3rd and 4th rounds. Roberts rallied at the beginning of the 5th round, before Harper rallied to even it before the round ended. Harper then took the final round, as he pounded Roberts to the body. Though he was known as more of a boxer, locally, he fought in a more aggressive manner in this bout.

Harper delivered the "most severe whipping Roberts has taken in his Northwest work." Tacoma News Tribune
