Salient. An organ of student opinion at Victoria College Wellington, N.Z. Vol. 2, No. 5 April 19, 1939

Middleweight

Middleweight.

This bout was marked by the tenacity of the Canterbury man, who, although outmaneuvered by Ryan, fought back gamely. The decision went to Victoria.

In the final against Cornish (O.U.), honors were even till the third round when Ryan began to take the initiative, leading with both hands. He continued into the fourth round to win and showed some clever footwork. The bout was characterized by good hard fighting on both sides, and drew the keen interest of the crowd. Probably the best fight of the evening.
