"Welterweight Issac Logart of Cuba beat lightweight Ludwig Lightburn of British Honduras at St. Nick's before 1,700 Monday night, but tired in the late going and had to be content with a split 10 round decision. There were no knockdowns but Lightburn, a long-range jabber and right-thrower, suffered a slight cut on his right cheek and he bled from the nose and mouth. Logart was slightly gashed on the left brow." -United Press
