Fine Card Tha reat ot tha card could not be Improved on. Frsnkle War like, tha "Flying Dutchman", and Ray Hafimaa staged one ot the greatest ring battles ever witnessed la a Klamath ring. The fast waiters fought six rounds to a draw. The decision apparently pleased the fans.' However, If Ishsdea were to ba called, this writer would have gives the nod to Huffman bat the margin was alo slight It was only fair to call It a draw. It was a battle of wits as well as flats. Both boys were ring wise, Huffman scored heavily In lha early part of the fight by jbacking Frankle Into the corner and chugging In abort body punches with both hands.
