	Sock met Slam in the semi-final and a riot was narrowly averted. As Andy Thomas lay stretched in his corner groveling in a paroxysm of pain following what looked like a deliberately low blow to many on the part of the dazed and beaten Bobby Michaels a wave of resentment swept through the crowd that might have easily been fanned into a scene of terrifying disorder. It was regrettable to see Michaels lose in the fashion he did. Though Thomas seemed due to get him from the start, Bobby was putting up a game fight all the way and for a time looked dangerous. Andy walked right into the fusillade of swings with the utmost calmness and drove his man back with the lefts of a sharpshooter and then crashed his right to the body-and what a killing right he owns! In the second round Thomas brought the right up to the chin and down went Michaels on his back, apparently dead to the world. At the count of eight Michaels managed to get to his feet and lashed out with powerful swings as Thomas came after him. A short left hook spun Michaels around and sent him hurtling to the canvas, from where, at the count of seven, he dragged himself up on the ropes near his corner. With his left still clutching the ropes Michaels held himself erect and tried to fight off his man. A right smash to the head sent Bobby staggering to the other end of the ring, the relentless Thomas after him, and just as Andy seemed to have his man measured for the knockout the swaying Michaels brought up a sweeping right, long and low.
