ARRECON FACES
REAL BOXER IN
LEONARD PORTER

Boxing fans who were somewhat
disappointed at the sluggishnoSs of
the Arrcgon-Poncc fight last week,
are not likely to shat complaint this
week when Arrcgon meets Leonard
Porter, clever colored battler from
Los Angeles.
Porter is NOT the type who holds
back waiting for the other fellow
to lead, but likes to sail III and do
a bit of leading himself. Tho col
orcd boy is one of the best looking
fighting machines that has been
seen in the local ring. He has Il
few weak spots but is gradually
ironing them out and has improved
II great deal in recent months.
In the ring he is cool, collected
and confident, taking advantage Of
every opening presented to him and
not one bit avcrsc to making the
openings himself.
Arregon was lacking in speed last
week, and as this has always been
one Of his big assets, he looked
worse than-he ever has when fight
ing here. frankie is Il mighty
good fighter. even when he selects
IA slower pace than usual and he
can hold his own with any boy of
his weight.
The fans ought to see one of the
best scraps in many months when
he and Porter tangle.
\ Chinese fighter is distinct
novelty, but anyone who thinks the
Cclcstials don I know how to throw
leather will think differently after
Charlie Chcng has done his stuff.
The fans in San Diego like him for
his ability and he is booked to
show plenty when he meets Glenn
Avilino in the six round semi-final.
Moses Bailey, another colorcd
boxer, meets Johnny Lee, hard hit
ting Filipino and veteran of many
a ring battle. Johnny has always
been popular fighter here and
his temperance two weeks ago
after a long absence, got him 4 wei
come from the fans.
Pete Casus is trying once more
to convince the fans that he is not
through and will open the bill
against Joe Garcia of Imperial.
