	:Bat Battalino, world's featherweight champion, defended his title tonight in a blistering ten-round fight with Earl Mastro, Chicago challenger, winning the decision of the referee and two judges. Battalino, the relentless, fighting Champion, had to fight like a champion to defeat the youthful Chicago challenger. He dropped Mastro twice and sent him reeling into the ropes in another furious exchange, but the Chicagoan was always fighting with desperation, at times out-scoring the champion. Battalino, however, who centered his attack to the body almost from the start, never allowed Mastro to take the play away from him entirely. Battalino floored Mastro with lefts and rights to the jaw in the second round, and when Mastro got up without a count, Battalino sent him reeling into the ropes under another barrage of punches. In the sixth round Battalino dropped the Chicagoan for a count of nine with a terrific smash to the body. The fight was witnessed by 14,000 spectators, with receipts of $40,353.		:Bat Battalino, world's featherweight champion, defended his title tonight in a blistering ten-round fight with Earl Mastro, Chicago challenger, winning the decision of the referee and two judges.
