he won from Johnny Lamar, San

main event at Hollywood stadium

In the first two rounds McLarnin
allowed Lamar to carry the fight,
and then in the third sent over Il
left and right that put him out in
front for the remainder OF the bout.
Lamar attempted rallies through
the later rounds, but McLarnin
stiffness made a poor target.
The fans yelled for n Knockout at
intervals, but McLarnin was con
tent to pile up points with Lamar
hack-pcdalling and clinching.
With the announcement that Jack
Roper had run out' on his match
with Tony Fuentc, Jimmy Dolan -
Nasqucz and Billy Harms were sub
stituted in the semi -windup. Harms
appeared poorly conditioned, and
in the third round short punch to
the jaw gave Nasquez a knockout
victory. Harms took the count on
one knee.
