CLINECA
Whip HINOJOSA
Frankie's Manager Says His
Fighter Has Had Real
Ring Experience
Special to The Heraldl


WESLACO. May 6.--P-The big
question fight fans here are ask
ing each other this: Why is 1t nee
eSsary TO 60 out OF the Valley to get
an opponent for Bob Hinojosa of
Brownsville. and why is Jack Sulli-
van so insistent that that be done?
The Weslaco fans believe. and they
are not by themselves either. that
Frank Cline Of this city can take
Hinojcsa TO a cleaning. according to
H. O.. Cline, manager Of Frankie
Cline.
They base their belief on the rec
ords Of the two boys. Hinojosa has
fought four times in his career. In
three of these fights he won by
the kayo route but his opposition
was sad, Cline AYERS. His first fight
was with Jack Adkins, who came to
the Valley 10 fight under the name
Of Jack Morrow. Bob won in the
first round. In a complete reversal
OF form he fought Leach Of Wes-
laco at Brownsville for his second
encounter and thees two boys drew.
Next HinojoSa knocked Leach out
in the first round Of a return bout
at Donna and then he watched the
referee count Bob Veal OF San An
tonic out in the first round. In
stead of going up as the ordinary
fighter does by fighting prelimin-
aries Jack Sullivan has been lucky
enough TO get Hinojosa on main
events against a bunch Of boys, raw
and new at the game. and who
would be termed setups by those
in the know. states Cline.

bic OF Paul De Hate on the Pacific
coast. He began his career in Los
Angeles against some of the tough

fought there seven times. lost two
decisions. and won the others by
knockouts, his brother-nanager de-
clares.
In the Valley he first took on Sal
Tor Todd at Mercedes. winning by
a knockout in the first round. next
fought Bull Young at Donna, win
ming by a knockout i'll the third
round. and then lost a disputed de-
cision at Mercedes against Cowboy
Brooks on a technical foul. the first
foul that was ever called on Cline.
