Closely punched after yesterdays
opening round, a crack field Of pro-

second 18-hole test of the $500 Texas
open tournament. Several score who
started yesterday were cast in the

first round. Camera knocked the
French Canadian to the floor six
times, the last time leaving him there,
apparently thoroughly chilled with
his chin snuggled In the canvas.
Purses Held Up
While no definite charges Of any
thing wrong were made, Frederick
Gardner, q member Of the athletic
commission. announced the purses Of
both fighters would be held up pend
ing an investigation. He said the
judges and Referee Dave Barry would
be called upon next Tuesday. for con-
sultation as to the genuineness Of the
knockdowns, and that Camera and
his opponent also would be requested
to answer some questions:
After Referee Barry had tolled off
the count Of 10 following the sixth
Touchdown. the spectators, 1880,
who left $50 ,625 at the stadium ticket
window, booed and hurled folded
newspapers and programs into the
ring to express their disapproval.
Rioux was guaranteed 5000 for his
share Of the entertainment, while
Cameras cut amounted to about
$4,000.
Weight Advantage IS Pounds
Rioux spotted the Italian Goliath
63A pounds. and appeared to be ex-
tremely nervous as he entered the
ring. Primo opened up with q left
hook which shook Rioux. Then fol-
lowed q series Of smashes, each OF
which was good for q knockdown.
Rioux took q count Of one on q right
to the head: and the next blow, q
left to the back Of Elzear's head, sent
him sprawling between Cameras legs.
Three vicious-looking rights account
ed for three more bounces by Rioux
before q final right finished him.
Rioux did not land q punch during
the brief encounter-in fact he did
not even attempt to throw q glove at
Primo. His defense appeared to be
based on the premise that he was
safest while on the canvas.
The semi-final bout between King
Tut, Of Minneapolis, and Bruce Flow
ers, New Rochelle, N. Y, negro light

in q decision for the rugged Mime

May Not Mean Split
In the event of split with Tam
many, that organization might be
instrumental in defeating Roosevelt
for reelection as Governor this fall,
which would put him completely
out of the picture as a presidential
candidate.
On the other hand, if he wins
and he is conceded a good chance
he would be more strongly in the
running than ever.
DisaSsociated from Tammany,
Roosevelt admittedly would be much
stronger in the south, which mis-
trusts Tammany. The Tammany
argument was used effectively
against Alfred E. Smith in 1928.
RooSevelt's action in pressing an
investigation against Tammany
might not necessarily lead to split
if he proved himself bigger than
Tammany and it preferred rather to
follow along with him.
"BIue Stocking" Politician
Roosevelt is "blue stocking" of
an old established family, and is
wealthy.
He is, in short, the type OCCASION
ally found in politics who can af-
ford to play the game more or less
independently and can take more
chances than the average politician.
He has nothing to lose and every
thing to gain.

NOGALES, Ariz., April 15.-J. E.
Bristow, wealthy San Angelo
Texas oil man held for ransom by
a Mexican bandit gang, today was
on his way home with his son, Cor
don o. Bristow, who paid 5000
pesos for the Texans release.
The oil man showed the effects
of his thirty days in a Mexican
camp when he left here.
During the last five days CT cap
tivity he was on a bread and water
diet, the only sustenance the ragged
Mexicans had for themselves, he
said.
Bristow's son arrived with the
ransom, originally placed at 10000
pesos, just in time to save the oil
mans life.
The bandits had gone on a forty
mile horseback journey which was
TO end with Bristow's execution.
The oil man said he was treated
nicely until the last few days when
rations ran short.
