BOXING
CAKNEKA. BEATS CHBIBTNER DETKOIT, sth June. Camera (263-Jlb) knocked out Christner (201 l-81b) in the fourth of a scheduled ten-rounds bout, of which the first two were even and the third given to Christner. Tho latter troubled the giant considerably by getting within the Italian's guard and punching his body, while Primo was unable to make his usual long swing. Christner also refused to give way to Camera's rushes and attempted clinches. Finally, however, after Primo had landed several stiff blows to his opponent's head, Christner weakened and received a series of sledge-hammer rights to the jaw. He dropped to the canvas and rolled on his back, seemingly unconscious, with blood running from his mouth.
