			"The nationally televised Chicago Stadium non title fight between Gil Turner and welterweight champion Johnny Saxton ended abruptly at the start of the 10th and last round. Dr. Irving Slott of the Illinois Athletic Commission, after the 9th, jumped into the ring to examine Turner, who was bleeding from a gashed eyebrow, cut nose and from inside the mouth. Turner was not allowed to continue on Slott's orders and Saxton gained a 10th round TKO. Turner continuously hammered Saxton against the ropes, but Johnny blocked many of the punches that may have looked as if they were on target to the TV audience. Saxton countered sharply and didn't have a scratch when it was all over while Turner looked as if he had been caught in a spray of red paint." -Associated Press
