DADO LAREDO
MATCH UNDER
INVESTIGATION

LOS ANGELES, July l5. tU.R-
The speedy Dado-Chato Laredo
boxing bout in Hollywood last FRI
dav was under Investigation at q
meeting of the State Athletic Com
mission here today.
1t was understood the inquiry
dwelt on the action of Referee Bert
Wallis, San Francisco, who aroused
a storm of protest when he awarded
the decision to Laredo. Dado de-
feated Laredo in a previous engage
ment and fans believed he had won
Friday, or at least earned u draw
Defending Wallis, Boxing lnspec-
tor Frank Moran was reported to
have said he received a letter from
Charles Traung, san Francisco com
missioner, asking Wallis be given
work
q gave Moran no such letter.
Traung declared on arriving here.
" Wallis is the last man | would send
down here. He is only a preliminary
referee and had no business in an
important main event Also, it
would be presumptious for me to
send man into the territory of
Commissioner James Woods when
competent referees already are
here. -
Traung and Bin Hanlon of Saera-
ment0 were the only members at the
meeting. Woods was in New York.

Creamery Bows
To Bank Nine

Blasting two pitchers from the
box and continuing their ~ hit
assault against the third, the Bank
of Italy annexed its second straight
game while the Golden State Cream
cry nine was dropping its fourth
in two, at Wilson school grounds
last night. When the melee was
finally over the money counters
were ahead 22-l2.
Two hectic innings, the third
aud seventh, proved the creamery
teams downfall, 20 of the banks
- runs coming in these periods.
Lingo and " 3. Smith divided one
third of the banks hits between
them. One of the highlights of
the game was homer by Patter
son, netting the bank four runs.
The buttermakers hit the bah
hard, but We're Handicapped by in
efficient pitching. Hunt and How
ard each bagged double, triple
ard homer for the losers.
Tonight's game between the Val
ley Steam Laundry and the Stude-
baker nine should be one of the
/. best to date. 1t brings together
Hurst and Southworth for .he first
time this sesaon. These two boys
are recognized as the best twirlers
in the circuit.

the following scrappers and they
will try to steal the interest from
the main event, if possible.
Mariana Cebu, FL Centro, and
Carl Hager. San Bernardino. viii
put ona return match. Three weeks
ago Cebu fouled Hager and has been
most anxious do show the fans that
he has the stuff and viii be more
careful this time. Hager has re-
covered from his recent illness and
is rarin' to 90 10 get in and win
from Mariana in an orthodox way.
Both boys pack powerful pune hes
and the fans will see gloves flying
all over the place with a sure knock
out if one lands
Cecil Balding, Los Angeles, new
conner, will trade punches for slX
rounds or less with Andy Armstrong,
Holtville mauler. We .yalleyites
know our Andy but we are not 50
sure about Cecil. The name sounds
rather peculiar for a serapper, but
you never can tell.
In the four-round prehm, Tiger
Flowers, Tucson, who made rather
sorry showing in his last two ap-
pearances here, has a chance to re,
deem himself and show his old form
when he meets Lorenzo Reyes, MeXi-
cali serapper. Flowers is anxious to
show that he really is 4 fighter and
so Woodbury. signed him up with the
Reyes boy. Both are known here,
and while it ought to be pretty
good scrap we can't say whether 1t
will be as good as last week s pre-
lin.
There you are. fans. Twentv-siX
rounds of fast action with main
event that promises to surpass any
thing yet put on in the local ring.
Listen to this: Ladies with escorts
will be admitted free through the
courtesy of the management. Wen,

WOODBURY. ANNOUNCES KIND
OF CARD FANS DREAM ABOUT

Fight fans in Imperial Valley and
adjoining territory are now con.
vinced that there is Santa Claus.
or at least that a special agent OF
that gentleman resides in this sec
tion of the state. Last week they
were treated to a first-class, all-star
program ~ the local arena which
packed the seats and kept the boys
and many girls, too. in 4 state of de-
lirious delight as the well matched
fighters carried on. Many thought
that promoter Harry Woodbury. had
gone the limit on this layout.
Harry. however, Just kept smiling
and finally said: Look at this card
for Friday night How does it suit -
and we pass his question on the fans
assured that their answer will be
unanimous that Harry has even out
done himself this time.
Bobby Pacho will meet sikh for
10 rounds in the main event. There
YOU are. right off the pan. Bobby
needs no introduction TO fight fans
or fanettes in this county. He is
without doubt the best two-handed
fighter ever turned out in the valley
and always gives good account OF
himself when he steps up to answer
the bell. Pacho has fought 10 fights
since starting his fistic career and
has lost but two decisions in that
time Not SO bad, no SIT, not SO bad.
He has taken them just as they
come along and is always willing 10
mix things with a slugger or box 1t
out with fancy boy, finally max
ing him look like something hanging
on a stick. Bobby will be i'll there
Friday night to take Sikh for the
count and will have the old guard
out to cheer him on to that end.
Battling Sikh is known not only
here but throughout the country as
well. Last year, according TO the
records. he boxed frankie Arregon
in the local arena and almost
knocked that boy for a loop until
he broke his right hand in the fourth
stanza and went on for the rest of
the bout with an injured fin but
would not give up. Handicapped
in this fashion he stayed with it and
Arregon was mighty lucky to get a
decision at the close of the fight.
Ski won the Arizona lightweight
title last wear at Phoenix and has
beaten Bulahan. Fernandez. Diaz
and fought every prominent light
weight in the country. We can
hear the fans now saying-what a
sweet scrap this will be, and join
in by reminding everyone to get IN
early and avoid the rush. 1t would
be a shame were anyone TO miss
this fight.
AS a supporting troupe for the
main event, Woodbury. has coralied
