FAIRHAL KNOCKS OUT MORGAN. By Telegraph—Press Association WESTPORT, December 26. In a 15 round professional contest between Tommy Fairhall (Australia) and Ted Morgan (New Zealand), the former won on a knock-out in the thirteenth round. The fight, which attracted a record house, was brimful of Interest. Fairhall was too select for Morgan, and he gradually wore his man down with body punches, and in the last round finished him off with a right uppercut. Morgan put up a good fight, however, and he helped to make it a really, interesting contest, and was a bit unlucky not to last the distance. Win on Foul. In a 10 round professional contest, Dave Richardson beat Kid Si.iith on a foul in the seventh round, the former was leading on points.
