Thanks Cap! I forgot to look in the Referee Images thread!
Here again is the photo Cap had posted on Billy Burke Canada and some info he'd left.
Career: 1927-1958
By the 1950s Burke was considered the premier referee in Central Canada (Ontario and Winnipeg) working all major fights at Toronto's Maple Leaf Gardens.
