Torres Scores
Quick Knockout

Ray Davis was knocked out by
Johnny Torres Wednesday night at
the Calexico American Legion arena
in the second round of scheduled
10-round main event.
The curtain punch clipped Davis
jaw following a clinch. For main
go the close was slow. Neither of
the boys showed much fight.
In the six-round semi-windup
Teddy Palacio of Pasadena won a
decision from Homer Gaines of I'M
perial.
The decision was not popular
with all the fans. Ringside dope
stcrs gave Palacio the edge during
the first of the contest but Gaines
comeback in the last two rounds
changed matters and many believed
the Imperial boy should have been
awarded the fight.
Tony Archer, south paw, took a
four-round decision from Lorenzo
Reyes in the fast special event. Both
lads handed out lots of punishment
The curtain raiser saw Henry
Inflow take a decision from Andy
Armstrong, negro boy, in a slugging
bout.
Armstrong was on the canvas
twice in the first round and that
gave his opponent the scrap. The
colored boy gave good account of
himself when he was on his feet.
