Jimmy Powers re¬ ports from Madison Square Garden, New York City. TV GUIDE RATINGS Rating B W L DKO's Andrews 2 33 29 4 0 17 Johnson 3 55 48 7 0 22 This is a return bout for these top- rated light-heavyweights. In his last bout, Andrews belted out "Boardwalk Billy" Smith. Smith holds a kayo win over Harold Johnson. Andrews, who has been improving with each bout, lost a decision to Johnson, but Johnson had to get off the floor to win. Both boys can hit, and with a title shot at stake, they'll be tossing dynamite from the opening bell. Compiled by Nat Fleischer (The Ring) (What's TV done to boxing?
