Camera v. Owens

Unlike the other two who have fought Primo Camera in the U. S. to date, Bill Owens, a mulatto of Guthrie, Okla., did not lose the ability to move and think at his first glimpse of his opponent's bulk. For a round he dodged the terrific right uppercuts and left hooks winged at him; he countered, ducked, and backed away, but at the start of the second Camera rushed out of his corner at a speed amazing for so big a man, landed a right, then rapid rights and lefts. Black Owens went down backward flat on his shoulders, and stayed there while the referee counted ten. This was in Newark, N. J. Jubilant, Carnera returned to the Park Plaza Hotel, Manhattan, broke two chairs in his arms as he capered about, pretending they were women he was dancing with, drank 15 bottles of ginger ale, snapping the tin caps off with his fingernails. Next day after a walk he entered the hotel, hurried toward a crowded elevator. "One more," said the starter. Camera (269 1/2 Ib.) got in. The elevator would not move.
