Though slated for only 6 rounds, the contest of heavyweights topped the bill as the hard-charging Californian Buddy Baer, brother of the notorious Max, faced off with Connecticut's veteran slugger Eddie Hogan, both huge men for their time, weighing in at 243 and 222.  The powerful Baer made even shorter work of the Waterbury veteran, disposing of Hogan by a TKO in the 3rd.  Grand Island, Nebraska's Glenn Lee graced the big stage of the Garden before appearing opposite John Garfield in the classic boxing film "Body and Soul" (1947), and would contend for the world middleweight title against Ceferino Garcia in 2 years.  In the 10 round bout slated here Lee pounded down the Italian-born "Belting Brakeman" Harry Balsamo in the 9th to win by a technical stoppage.
  Though lower on the bill, one of the other middling matches provided plenty of action, when the rematch of welterweights Andre Jessurun, a New York City Golden Gloves welterweight finalist in 1934 born in French Guiana, and the Roman native Vittorio Venturi went the full 6 before the Jewish New Yorker claimed the prize.  The Puerto Rican featherweight Cristobal Jaramillo and Johnny Pena, a Portugese immigrant to Brooklyn, though, could not resolve the issue of who was better in the 6 frames allowed, leaving the ring with a draw.  The short combat on the undercard was won by Tommy Tedesco, down from the U.S. side of Niagara Falls, over Massachusetts lightweight Johnny Dube in 4.
