RECORD ATTENDANCE
(United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright.)
BARCELONA, November 30
Camera gained a points decision over Paolino after a ten rounds bout at Barcelona.
BARCELONA, November 30. ■*; It is officilly announced that the attendance at the fight was ninety-one thousand, a European record. Though each delivered heavy blows in order to break his opponents defence, the contest soon degenerated into a hugging match until the referee interfered. Nevertheless, too crowd applauded every round adminng Pnolino’s pluck against his bigger, younger and more skilful adversary. In tile first round Paolino, with three heavy blows, sent tbe Basque sprawling, but in the following rounds. Camera easily outlawed his crudely lunging opponent. The Italian’s footwork was masterly and Paolino, who developed wrestling tactics in the . latter part of the fight, appeared badly mauled though the punishment he absorbed indicated that he is made of iron.
