Hines we had predicted, or rather
. had felt we should of predicted.
! It was a very interesting card and
resulted in two knockouts, one drew
and decision.
! One of the favorites of the fans
came through as per schedule, while
another lost pretty close decision
/ to man who is more seasoned and
could weather the rough storms to
better advantage. We would like to
( see a rematch of the Louis Reyes
Nose Bailey fight, which we had
predicted would be the brightest
spot on the card.
The last half of the double main
event ended just as we had expect
ed. Ortega is good, clever and all
that. but he just couldn't stand up
against that piledriving left OF
Limbraeo and when it finally
caught him flush on the jaw near
the close of the third round. every
thing was over. Brother, Leon can
hit and there is no doubt about it
at all He chased Ortega all over.
the ring with that left fist poised,
sudden release Ortega looked
trifle worried as if he had heard of
that crushing fist before. He went
down early in the first round for
no count and Limbraco was right
after him all the time. Not overly
scientific. not terribly fast, but
Just plodding along with that dead
" left which has put several other
good men to sleep here of late, al
WAYS ready to be shot over at the
right time.
He got over-anxious several times
and missed some haymakers but
when he did connect, Ortega was
plenty hurt. In the second stanza
one of these wallops put Ortega
down for a count of s. just before
the bell. In the third and final
round Leon swarmed all over him,
watching. waiting, and had Ortega
on the floor again for count of I.
Steve was up and tried to force his
opponent about the ring, but Linn
brace calmly and quietly waited for
the one opportunity he sought and
when Steve gave him the opening,
that terrible left found the button
and that was the end. He was out,
completely, and had to be carried
TO his corner.
Ortega showed that he is a good
boxer and fight but was up against
the wrong kind of competition last
night. He walloped Leon several
times to the head and stomach but

Before this fight started. Louis
Ramos who had won the previous
bout climbed through the ropes to

Bobby James, welterweight cham
/ pion of Canada. was also introduced
to the fans by announcer Cal Nous
seau, who stated that Bobby will
soon make his appearance here
against suitable opponent.
Ramos Scores Knockout
Another knockout featured the
+ second half of the main event when
( Louis Ramos worked over Pete Ma
/ gallanes for three rcunds and finally
toward the end Of the fourth, slipped
linn the bad news by a terrific right
. clip 10 the jaw. Louis outreached
and outfought his opponent through
out, that is, whatever fighting was
done, and seemed altogether too fast
and clever for the San Francisco
boy. At the beginning of the scrap
il looked as it Pete might worry
along and finally cop the nod, but
in the fourth frame Ramos opened
+ IN. crowded all over Pete with lefts
and rights to the head and stomach
and finally stretched him with 4
right TO the Jaw.
( He had been playing tattoo or
/ Pete's s stomach throughout the bout
and had him weakened and ready for
the final wallop, which proved TO be
tie finishing touch.
Louis Reyes, Brawley, who has

found himself Just a bit outclassed
when he met Nose Bailey, San Diego,
/ last night and dropped a close de-
/ cision to the little colored scrapper,
! Both boys are fast, no doubt Of that.
and they started right in from the
opening gong TO show their stuff.
I Baily has mean right which he
used very effectively throughout the
