Introduction
Leon Lucas boxing cards
LEON LUCAS was born in Camden, New Jersey on September 4, 1901. His parents were immigrants from Poland. At the age of 18 he was living at 1103 Louis Street and working at one of Camden’s shipyards. He lived at 1539 Mount Ephraim Avenue in Camden NJ, and was working as a hardwood floor layer in late 1926 when he took up boxing, working out at the Arcadia gym in Philadelphia. In one night in Philadelphia, April 12, 1928, he defeated four opponents, all by knockout, to qualify for the AAU finals, which determined the makeup of that year’s American Olympic team. A light heavyweight, he defeated Dave Maeir of Milwaukee in 1928 to win the Amateur Athletic Union light heavyweight title, and earn his place at the 1928 Olympics in Amsterdam.
After returning to Camden from the Olympics, Leon Lucas turned professional. He won his first three fights, two by knockout in Philadelphia PA. For his fourth fight, he traveled to Milwaukee WI to fight 5 days after his previous bout. He fought King Levinsky only to be knocked out in the 6th round. This would prove to be his last professional fight. He stayed around boxing and in June of 1929 traveled to Lakewood NJ to work as a sparring partner for German heavyweight Max Schmeling.
Leon Lucas went into business. He acquired a popular bar at 1223 Haddon Avenue from long-time Camden tavern owner Charles E.A. “Pop” Mathews. This bar became known as Donkey’s Place.
Donkey’s Place over the years became famous for its steak sandwiches, on a poppy-seed roll smothered in onions. A Camden institution for seven decades, you can still get one today!
Leon Lucas passed away in May of 1971.
Lucas Is Determined to Make Olympic Berth

LUCAS IS DETERMINED TO MAKE OLYMPIC BERTH
Camden Amateur Light Heavyweight, Who Knocked Out Four Opponents in One Night, Expects to Make American Boxing Team—Sammy Gray Off to Another Great Start
By TOM RYAN
“I only have one desire at the present time and that is to make the trip abroad with the American Olympic boxing team.”
That’s what Leon Lucas, Camden’s famous amateur light heavyweight boxer, said today when asked if he intended to turn “pro” now that he is in the pugilistic spotlight, due to the fact that he knocked out four opponents in one night last week. As a result of his sensational feat, Lucas has been besieged with managerial offers from dozens of fight managers.
“Of course, I’ve had plenty of offers to sign contracts with any number of managers, but I intend to remain an amateur, at least until the Olympic tryouts, which will be held at Boston next Monday and Tuesday, are over. I think I have a good chance to make the team, and as I want to make the trip more than to earn a few dollars by turning ‘pro’ I’m going to compete for a berth on the team,” said Lucas, who if determination means anything, more than likely will be a member of the American team when they sail for Amsterdam.

Gorman Meets Test Against Joe Bashara
Camden Courier-Post —
GORMAN MEETS TEST AGAINST JOE BASHARA
Hard-Hitting Middleweights Meet in Prelim to Forgione-McGorgary Bout Tuesday
ALLEN FIGHTS MURPHY
Successful so far in a comeback campaign launched recently, Joe Bashara, hard-hitting middleweight from Baltimore, will stack up against a tough customer in one of the preliminary bouts at the all-star show arranged by the Matthew Purnell Post, 518, Veterans of Foreign Wars, at the Camden Convention Hall next Tuesday.
Bashara opposes Tip Gorman, Camden’s fighting cop, himself in the midst of a comeback.
The Marylander was brought to Philadelphia by “Boo Boo” Hoff two years ago and he became one of the most popular club fighters then performing in this section.
He was inactive for some months, but has started fighting again and hopes to reach former heights.
Gorman, after a string of victories up North Jersey, gained favor here with triumphs over Watson Finch and Tony Gildo. He then joined the police force and retired temporarily. Now he is back in harness again, and rarin’ to go.
There should be plenty of action when the hard-hitting Tip tackles the tough Bashara.
The windup Tuesday brings together Vincent Forgione, Atlantic City speedster who is also a member of the Hoff stable, and Babe McGorgary, the rugged Oklahoma cowboy. McGorgary is a slugger but Forgione is a better boxer, and hits hard, besides.
The semi-windup presents two South Jersey Italians who rank among the leading lightweights in the state. Roxie Allen, fresh from a victory over Mickey Blair and a draw with Emery Cabana, opposes Tommy “Kid” Murphy, the Trenton flash.
Two terrific punchers mingle in the main preliminary. Al Gordon, Hoff’s southpaw lightweight, fights Jesse Goss, Trenton colored sensation. Goss is the boy who ended Jackie Hindle’s career with a knockout victory, during which he almost blinded the Camdenite.
Jess also boasts a win over Murphy. It was after this bout that Murphy attacked a Trenton sports writer and was suspended by Commissioner Bugbee. He has been restored to good graces since.
The opening bout on the program shows Leon Lucas, former amateur champion who fought in the recent Olympics, making his professional debut. The Camden heavyweight meets Mushy Brown, formerly of Chicago, who has been under the care of the veteran Adam Ryan. Ryan thinks he has a comer in the 180-pound Brown, and Lucas is sure to be tested in his pro start.
In addition to these five star bouts, a novice scrap will be staged between Jimmy Russell, of Beverly, and George Jackson, of Camden.
Vincent Forgione Wins Decision Over Babe McCorgary
Camden Courier-Post —
VINCENT FORGIONE WINS DECISION OVER BABE McCORGARY IN VETERAN’S ALL-STAR BENEFIT SHOW
Trenton ‘Phantom’ Gains Verdict Over Local Italian for Third Straight Time
LUCAS STOPS BROWN
By TOM RYAN
Before one of the largest crowds that ever witnessed a boxing shot [sic] at the Convention Hall, Vincent Forgione, of Philadelphia, won the referee’s decision over Babe McCorgary, of Oklahoma, in the last-half of the double-windup of the all-star benefit show staged last night by the Corporal Mathews-Purnell Post, No. 518, Veterans of Foreign Wars.
More than 3500 fans poured through the portals of the Civic Center institution to witness the five eight-round scraps that comprised the night’s program of fisticuffs. While the Forgione-McCorgary fracas was anything but thrilling, the remainder of the bouts made up for the lack of thrills in the last set-to.
In the first-half of the double-windup, Tommy “Kid” Murphy, 141, the Trenton “phantom,” defeated Roxie Allen, of Camden, for the third time in as many starts against the downtown Italian. Al Gordon, 133, of Philadelphia, and Jesse Goss, 139, of Trenton, fought eight fast rounds to a draw in the semi-final, while Tip Gorman, 159, of East Camden, won the referee’s decision over Joe Bashara, 153½, of Norfolk, Va., in the second bout.
Leon Lucas, 185, of Whitman Park, former national amateur lightweight champion, making his initial appearance as a professional money earner, knocked out Mushy Brown, 193, of Philadelphia, after two minutes and sixteen seconds of fighting in the first round of the opener.
McCorgary Takes Sound Drubbing
The principals in the earlier bouts stole the thunder away from the finalists. Forgione can not be criticised for the uninteresting performance presented by the boys who rang down the curtain on one of the most successful benefit shows ever held here. Vince did the best he could to make a fight of it, but McCorgary, who appeared as though he hadn’t trained for the bout to any great extent, didn’t seem to care whether or not he showed to advantage.
In faqt [sic], Babe landed only a few clean punches during the course of the bout and what few wallops found their target didn’t do any damage. There is only one apt expression that can be applied to the bout and though it’s as old as the hills it’s the only way to describe the fray. Forgione went around McCorgary like a cooper around a barrel. Vince cut up his foe like hamburger steak, both of McCorgary’s eyes, his nose and mouth spouting gore before the bout was more than half completed.
McCorgary, who weighed 170½, was slow of foot and hand and showed that he wasn’t in the “pink” by sporting a roll of fat around his waist. Forgione, who came in at 162½, was as fast as a whippet in all respects. He forced the fighting from start to finish, pelting the Babe with a varied assortment of punches throughout.
The Philadelphian centered his attack on McCorgary’s head and the Babe was a sorry looking spectacle at the finish, while Forgione did not bear a mark of the encounter. If ever there was a one-sided match it was the one staged between Forgione and McCorgary last night. The fans didn’t take kindly to the affair and gave it the “berries” as early as the second round. At the close of that period, Deputy Boxing Commissioner Edward A. Welsh instructed Referee Ray Smith to inform McCorgary that he would have to make a better attempt at fighting or else the bout would be stopped by Welsh.
Referee Smith warned McCorgary and the Babe loosened up a bit in the third, but soon assumed the watchful waiting attitude he had displayed in the first two rounds. He started out with his right poised for a knockout thump and still had it in the same position when the bout ended. He landed one or two punches in the third that appeared to carry a little steam, but that was his last flash of the night. One wit pulled a wise crack at the end of the sixth when he yelled, “Wait’ll Monaghan hears about this.”
That about sums up the bout. Still, Forgione hustled throughout and it was no fault of his that the bout didn’t come up to the expectations of the fans.
Murphy Too Fast For Allen
The Murphy-Allen fracas was fast from start to finish with Murphy doing all of the forcing and most of the leading. Tommy proved he can outsmart the downtown Italian any time he meets him. He beat him to the punch continually, shooting his left to the body and crossing his right to the jaw so often that Roxie appeared to be dazed by the avalanche of punches Tommy sent in his direction. Murphy won six out of the eight rounds, Allen barely winning the second and eighth rounds.
Tommy scored a tainted knockdown in the first. Almost as soon as the bout started, Tommy charged into Allen, let go a left hook to the body which caught Allen off balance and spilled him in his own corner. Roxie, however, was up before a count could be started. Allen’s best round was the second. They exchanged punches in a fast mixup on the ropes and Allen came off best. Tommy backing up for the first and only time of the bout.
Allen got in a couple of effective straight lefts to the head and also registered two one-two punches in the same spot. Murphy resumed the offensive from that round till the last period, peppering Roxie aplenty on every part of his anatomy.
Gordon-Goss Stage Great Fight
Murphy’s best round was the fifth. Tommy gave Roxie the works in that session. He cut loose with everything he had and Roxie finished the round with a gash under his left eye, while he also suffered a cut on his lower lip which Murphy managed to reopen in each succeeding round.
It was the third time the boys have met, and the third time that Murphy has won the decision. Referee Smith was the third man in the ring.
Gordon and Goss probably staged the best scrap of the night. Both tried hard to end the bout by a knockout, but neither accomplished his purpose. It was a great fight and Referee Tom Walters’ decision was a popular one, yet the writer felt that Gordon had slightly the better of the milling owing to his aggressiveness and his harder punching. True, Goss might have landed a few more punches than Gordon, but the latter’s carried far more power than any Goss landed. Al made the Trenton lad hold more than once from lefts to the stomach, while Gordon never once was guilty of clinching in order to escape his opponent’s punches.
The writer credited Gordon with four rounds, gave Goss three and called one even. It was a close fight due to the fact that Goss carried the second round by a wider margin than any credited to Gordon, still to those close to the ringside. Gordon appeared to have just a shade the better of the bout.
Gorman Beats Bashara
After Bashara’s seconds, one of whom was Joe Ferguson, one of the best lightweights in the east 15 years ago, had argued about the bandages on Gorman’s hands for about five minutes the bout finally got under way, Tip and his manager winning the argument, as Gorman entered the fray without disturbing his hand coverings.
Referee Joe “Pose” Robinson awarded Gorman the decision at the close of the fuss and got the “razz” for his version of the scrap. The writer is forced to string along with the fans, as he credited Bashara with six out of the eight rounds. Joe appeared to have given Tip a pretty good lacing, both upstairs and downstairs, but Referee Robinson must have thought otherwise.
Although Gorman landed plenty of hard rights to Bashara’s head, Joe got in many more wallops, especially shots to the body, which appeared to sap Tip’s stamina early in the bout. Tip might have won, as Referee Robinson decreed, but in all fairness to Bashara it appeared as though he had won by the length of the new Broad street subway.
Lucas Drops Brown In First
Lucas made short work of Brown. Mushy must have learned his stuff in a pony ballet. He attempted to show his dancing ability, but it didn’t go over so big with the crowd nor with Lucas. Leon merely bided his time until he could get an opening at Brown’s jaw. It finally arrived, but Lucas’ right landed too high to hit a vital spot, the punch landing on top of Brown’s head.
Yet it was hard enough to send him down on one knee, where he remained until he was counted out. However, he appeared to be in agony and when Referee Robinson had completed his count he claimed that he had wrenched the tendons in his right leg when he fell to the mat. Dr. Shannon, who was among the spectators, examined the injury and stated that Brown had wrenched the muscles in going down.
The show was staged to provide funds with which to care for members of the local veterans’ post who are in need of assistance. It could not be determined today just how much the show had netted the organization, but it is thought that a reasonable amount had been realized from the affair.

Tonight we are doing honor to one of our own - a Camden boy - Frankie Conway.
I wish to thank the chairman of this banquet, Lew Skymer and two co-chairmen, Frankie Rapp and Pee Wee Ross and the rest of the committee for a job well-done.
I also like to thank our advertisers, patrons, boosters and everyone that has lent their assistance to make this affair a success.

Thanks to you all from all of us,
JOE (Kid) MURPHY
President, Ring No. 6
“OUR MAN OF THE YEAR”
Our Guest of Honor, Frankie Conway was born in Camden on November 3, 1900 and in his pre-teen days when he wasn’t selling newspapers down at the Pennsylvania Ferry, he was either playing on one of the city playgrounds, or boxing with the neighborhood kids in some back yard, or in the street. At the age of fifteen, after having a dozen or so amateur bouts, Frankie boxed his first professional bout with Kid Dougherty at the Douglas A. C. in Philadelphia and after six tough rounds he received the handsome sum of $5.00. Now Frankie thought that was better and much quicker than selling papers. He sometimes didn’t earn that much in a week standing outside in all kinds of weather.
So Frankie embarked on a boxing career that took him from one town to another meeting the top contenders in both the bantamweight and featherweight classes. Among some of his bouts were the rough and tough Whitey Fitzgerald, Benny Valger, Harry “Kid” Brown, Bennie Kauffman, Battling Murray, Frankie Jerome, Maxie Williamson and the Gloucester blacksmith, K. O. Joe O’Donnell (a few of these old timers are here tonight).
After almost ten years of boxing and close to 200 bouts and in the early part of 1924, Frankie was not yet 24 years old, when he had the misfortune of losing the sight in his left eye, and shortly after, the same happened to his right eye. Several operations by the best eye specialists in New York proved futile. But Frankie didn’t give up . . . being young and ambitious, he tried his hand in the cafe and night club business and today he is the proud owner of the 11 O’Clock Club at 18 West Cuthbert Boulevard in Westmont.
The petite gal that you see with him constantly is his lifetime manager, trainer and wife who before she became Mrs. Conway, was the former Maude B. Stiles.
Also here tonight are his two sisters, Mrs. Louise Ricciardelli of Westmont and Mrs. Della Uhorchek of Trenton and brother Tony, also of Westmont.
And this in brief, is the story of our Honorary President, the Champion of Champions. Yes, we of V. B. A. - Ring No. 6, are indeed proud and greatly gratified to have you Frankie Conway as “OUR MAN OF THE YEAR - 1961”.
God Bless You!

We Remember When . . .
Your names are on our Clubhouse wall under the word “Deceased”. At every meeting your names are read aloud while we stand in a moment of silence to your memory.
You were a paid up member when you retired from this life.
You may be the fellow who said we couldn’t last.
The one who paid his dues faithfully, whose job would not permit him to attend our meetings.
The chap with all the ideas, who, was too busy to serve on any committee.
The quiet fellow with the pipe, who was always willing to help.
Or the guy who was sure to jump up and say, “I’m against it, it won’t work!” but he put forth every effort to make sure it did work, because it was for the good of the organization.
The member who always promised to do it, but didn’t always get around to it.
You may have been the champ or the preliminary boy. The good member, faithful in attendance and always ready to help. The lax one who would come around once in a while.
Big man in the community, small fish in a big pond but we who remain standing say . . .
May You Rest In Peace
