"The lightweight battle between New York's two Ghetto boys, Sid Terris and Ruby Goldstein was fought at the Polo Grounds last night. At the bell for round one Goldstein drove from his corner and a moment later smashed a right to the chin. Down went Terris, while the referee tolled the count of nine. Then, slowly Terris dragged to his feet again and from the resin at his heels he brought a crushing right hand blow that landed flush on the eager, quivering youngster's chin and knocked him out at 1:47 of the 1st round." -Associated Press
