in the fight that re didn't have the
stamina to push through and do
any real damage.
His hitting ability was still in
evidence. but he didn't get chance
to land many blows squarely on
Aguirre. Il was good fight but a
little too one-sided to be interesting.
Frankie Arregon and Rito Punay
put up the scrap of the evening,
travelling 10 rounds to draw deci-
sion. which was about as good a
verdict as Bill Tackett ever called.
The boys were we'll matched and
mixed it up straight through. Ar
RECON worked regularly on the Fill
pinos body, wearing him down with
terrific hooks, and received in return
a classical assortment OF short Jabs
to the head, with a few nasty up
percutS mixed in when the fighting
went TO close quarters.
Neither boy showed any great
amount of speed. though Arregon
cut loose occasionally with old-time
form, only TO have Punay tie him
10 into a clinch. When the boys
clinched they did a good job OF It
and hugged in so closely that it was
impossible for either one TO get IN
damaging blows.
Punay had q bit Of the edge in
the first, fifth and eighth, while Ar
RECON rated the third, sixth and
ninth, leaving the second, fourth
and seventh even and sending them
into the final round about even.
Both boys tried hard to grab off
the edge in the final stanza, and II
cur opinion, Punay had the shade
but a draw decision was plenty gooc
Johnnie Hill substituted in the
special event for Rod Rodriguez anG
got draw with Tiger Flowers III d
none too good fight. Johnny hasn't
got the old zip. He was tired boy
in the third round and a boxer who
tires that easily is not in shape to
Go his best. Flowers had much the
better of what fighting there was.
Gregorio Williams and Young
Mexico appeared in the opener and
we don't care if Santa Claus doesn't
come within mile Of them. II was
that sort of fight, although Bill
Tackett said it was draw.

Schaaf's prediction to the writer
was that he, Schaaf, would win ov-

decision of the referee and judges
was unanimous.
Baer proved that he can fight.
He has a damaging right he is

Baer was off to an early point
lead. He was credited with holding
his own or winning every round
through the fifth. But Schaaf won
the sixth and the remaining rounds.
Schaaf has a nice body attack
but used it little last night. In
stead he concentrated on Baer's
head and face. These tactics were
successful and for stretch through
the sixth, seventh and eighth
rounds. Baer appeared on the verge
OF being knocked out.
Schaaf kept intact his record of
never having been knocked off his
feet in ring.
Baer weighed 200 pounds, and

AGUIRRE TAKES
DECISION OVER
FILIPINO BOXER
By JIMMY GREENE

Sammy Aguil're avenged the
knockout Of his stable-mate, Teddy
Palacios, in the local arena two
weeks ago by administering 9 sound
beating to Vivencio Alicante in the
final half of the main event at the
Imperial Valley Athletic club last
night.
At that it was a hollow victory
for Aguirre. Taller, stronger and
heavier than his opponent, with
considerably more experience. he
hit the Filipino with everything III
sight but could not finish him. He
had Alicante going toward the can
vas in the second round and should
have scored a knockout there. but
was unable 10 do so.
Aguirre put everything into that
round and thereafter seemed inca
pable of doing much more than
cutting Alicante or standing him Oft
with short jabs.
There was not a round that could
really be given to Alicante, though
he Spurted a bit in the seventh and
eighth rounds, throwing wild hay
makers at Aguirre, some Of which
connected and slowed him up. But
Alicante had taken so much earlier

This microbe belongs to a group of

it can be shown that the blood OF In

The test was applied in the London

then injected into lovebirds. The birds
became sick from the disease, and in
turn their blood, even after filtration,
proved fatal to other birds.

Efforts of the local police depart ment to minimize the danger of &C., cidents at the more hazardous inter- sections of the city have brought about the placing of signs along Monore street, from Lincoln street to South Main and Ellis street, noti- flying autoists that the thoroughfare is now boulevard street Traffic which enters the street from any streets crossing it must come to s complete stop.
 This ruling will be strictly adhered toaby the police and any driver fail! ing to heed the warning will be haled into court.
