CARNERA WINS
STRIBLING HITS LOW
FOUL IN FOURTH ROUND
United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright. (Received 19th November, 2.30 p.m.) LONDON, 18th November. There was tremendous interest'in the contest between the Italian giant, Primo Camera, and the American, Young Stribling. The fact that Stribling had recently fought in the heavyweight elimination contests in America, being outpointed by Jack Sharkey, who is regarded as the most formidable heavyweight in America, gave rise to the opinion that the Italian would be fully tested. Camera (6ft lOin) weighed 20st, and towered over Stribling, who was half an inch short of 6ftj and 13st 121b. Camera won on a foul in the fourth round, when Stribling was disqualified for-hitting low.
