who could neither read, write nor
speak English, came to this coun-
try displaying a record Of knock
out victories over several South
American fighters and succeeded
in interesting Tex Rickard with
the result that he was soon be-
ing featured in the latter's big

CALEXICO BOUTS
APPEAR TO BE
REAL SIzZERS

frankie Aragon, rd-hitting To-
cal featherweight, meets tough one
at Calexico when he stacks up a.
gainst Enrique Rosales tonight in
the 10 round main event, and flock
of local fans plan on journcving
southward to see what ought to be
real battle.
Aragon has everything a good
fighter needs and has been success
full in nearly all his fights since his
return here early in the summer
The one exception was foul decis-
ion dropped to Tony Nalderama.
Rosales was seen in action here last
year, and mt that time the fans fig
ncd match with Aragon would be
ono of the real naturals.
For the six round semi final, De
La Fuentc, the clever CalcXico fly,
weight, will mix it up with Kid
Luccro of Los Angeles. Luccro has
been fighting in the elimination CON
test to decide the successor to Fidcl
La Barba, and has made a good
showing so far. This bout should
be equal to the main event in inter
est.
Homer Gaines, the black ace from
Imperial, will do his stuff in the
four round special, with frankie
Thorn, newcomer to these parts,
as his opponent. Homer has long
string of victories to his credit dur.
ing the present season, and goes
strong with the gallery.
Pablo Welsh, who packs a punch
like a miles kick, is booked for
the opener against Joe Skies of San
Diego. Welsh was a sensation two
years ago at Mcxicali and is now
attempting n comeback. His first
appearance al the arena two weeks
ago, showed he still retains the old
wallop.
The card looks good on paper and
the top half in particular ought to
