Central Union
At HOltviQe

The Central Union Spartans under
the charge Of Coach Armstrong left
for Holtville this afternoon to play
the second league game of the sea.
son. The players were confident of
victory while the coach was advis-
ing his team that over confidence is
often the cause of defeat. Armstrong
is looking for tough foe in the
Holtville high school team despite
the fact that the Spartans trounced
the Junior college eleven which
trimmed the Holtville team Z to 0
in practice game early in the sea-
son.
The Holtville team has always
been difficult for the Spartans. At
times when the FL Centro team
should have won, the coach declares
the Holtville team either tied the
score or won. 1t is this fact that
caused Armstrong to warn his team
not to be over confident.
Armstrong has pretty good back
field with Wynn at quarterback,
Rice and Hammer playing the two
halves and Watson at fullback.
Wynn and Hammer made several
sensational plays against Brawley
last Saturday, and are expected to
Go even better today.

boarded the truck and were gone
before the many people on the cam
pus realized what had happened.
The pups stay in Brawley was
cut short, for it's rightful owner in
El Centre demanded that the boys
return the pup to its original To-
cation. The trip was made again
last night. and the pup was brought
back unharmed by it's novel exper-
ience
The other pup, twin to the me
taken to Brawley, was slightly in
iured when someone proceeded to
push il down Main street with an
automobile.
Both pups feel quite up to date
after Their "good will" tours, but
contend they were not copying Lind

these boys are evenly matched, and

is mighty ticklish job. Palacios
had clear edge last night on dam

eressiveness was impressive. They
fought a nice clean fight, with
plenty of speed and if tn emanage-
ment throws them in again, there
viii doubtless be a repetition of last
nights affair, with the decision be-
ing equally IS close.
Pacho Has Cinch
Whoever switched the card, put
ting Palacios and Porter on last in
stead of Bobby Pacho and Tiger
Payne, certainly knew his stuff, for
the Tiger proved to be more tab6y
cat than a tiger. Bobby put the
ding on him in the second round,
getting technical knockout when
Bill 9'ackett stopped the fight. Bill
and the timekecper got hoarsc and
almost cross-eyed from counting
Payne as he lay on the floor and
watching him fail and rise.
1t wasn't even good work out
for Bobby, but even at that he
showed improvement. The boy has
speeded up, he IS punching shorter
and harder, and we'd be willing
(almost) to pay admission to sec
him tangle again with Johnny Tor.

PALACI0S AGAIN
DRAWS NOD OVER
LEONARD PORTER
Boys Put Up Great Scrap
With Result Being Plen-
ty Close.
(By GOSH

Teddy Palacios once more took
the decision from Leonard Porter
in the second half Of the double
main event at the Imperial Valley
Athletic club last light, making two
decisions for Teddy out of three bat
ties he has fought with the clever
colored boy. Til" odd decision was
draw.
The first two c:ghts were for six
rounds and were 80 close that many
fans disputed the yerdicts. 1t was
believed that 10 round scrap would
definitely decide which was the bet
ter man, but r'hcn the fans were
filing out of the arena last night
they were once more disputing the
verdict.
Because of the manner in which
Teddy fought tie battle, many fans
tailed to credit him with as much
good work as he did. He went in
"under wraps" for the first half Of
the fight, allowing Porter to take
several rounds il succession, which
were somewhat deceiving in reckon
ing up the winnef.
We gave Porter four rounds, Pal
acios three and called three even
one Of which might easily have beer
given to Palacios. The latter die
more damage in the latter part OF
the fight than Porter had done il
the, rounds he took earlier in thu
battle, and his knockdown over th'
colored boy in tie final round addct
much to his side of the argument.
After fightinf continuously in th'
first half of the fight, Palacio
opened up in the sixth and in th'
last four rounds his body attacl
, told on the coiored boy who hat
used a beautiful left, hooking an,
| .iobbing to Teddy's mead throughou
! the fight, at times making his fac
resemble bloody moon.
