PICKING WINNER
OF MAIN EVENT
IS TOO TOUGH

/ Tess up a coin and take your
choice That appears to be the
safest thing to do in picking a win
ner for tonights main event between
Young David. local Filipino. and
Johnny Torres, coast battler.
! One puncher can make a fight
and two punchers can make a rat
tling good one That is what the
fans ought to see tonight, for both
David and Torres pack punches and
know how to use them. Johnny
has the longer ring record and has
numbered some high class men
among his victims.
David's battles have practically
all been in the local arena, and
he has accumulated a string OF Il
/ knockouts in 10 starts. That DEM
onstrates wallop that ought to
satisfy anyone.
The Filipino is on the way up
and Johnny has been up. slipped a
bit, and wants to get back. There
is chance for him for a bout with
Bobby Pacho on the Canzoneri-
Payne card at Wrigley Field, July
l3, and Johnny wants that fight.
He probably will get it if he gets
over David. but if that Filipino
should sink him, Johnny IS going
to have a tough time convincing
Tom Gallery that he rates the shot
at Pacho.
For some reason, there are any
number of valley fans who want to
see David get his head knocked
off. They had better not miss to-
nights fight then, for the chance OF
Torres doing that is just as good
as the chance that David may turn
the cards and heaye Johnny's dome
into some spectators lap.
Two middleWeights who can wal
Top as most middleweights can, will
put on the semi-final. Frankie
West, the Pittsburgh stogie, will dis
play his wares for the third week
III succession at the local arena. He
didn't have any too much competi-
ton from Andy Armstrong in the
two previous fights, but he is up
against dynamite tonight in George
Lujon. George is the type that the
fans like TO see, a clever boy who
can punch. There is no cleverness
about West, who depends upon
brute strength to get him by George
has the strength and the skill. Their
fight should not go the limit.
Louis Reyes and Louis Silva will
decorate the boards for the six
round special. Silva is not known
here but Reyes is. The BraWley boy
has fought some tough ones and
he has demonstrated beyond any
doubt that he is q hard man to
beat. The worse he looks the more
dangerous he is, and he is particu-
larly bad when he is getting up off
the floor. Louis is no dub at box
ing either, and Mr.. Silva will find
that out il he decides to box in
stead OF punch.
Baby Ruiz and Rush Tortois will
open the show with a four round
bout. Rush was delayed in transit
last week when he was supposed TO
make his initial appearance here
but is promised for the job tonight
If Baby Ruiz is anything like this
Joe Ruiz who took on Battling Paul
twice, the fans should see plenty.
The first bout will be called at 9
o'clock and again there will be 1000
seats available at four bits, while
ladies with escorts will be admitted
without charge.

Attempt to Bride lid Lawyer
Failing with the parents and rela-
tiveS of the boys, White and the local

Chamlee, the local attorney engaged
by the International Labor Defense,
and tried to bride him into giving
up the case. Mr.. Chamlee told them
he was engaged by the lid and the
parents and would have nothing to
do with anybody else. They then
asked him what he would do if Roddy
quit. Chamlee told them that so far
as the defense was concerned Roddy
had quit long ago, as neither the
boys nor their parents had retained
him or wanted him to have anything
to do with the case since his shame

in Scottsboro.
Chamlee Advises White to Cooperate
White then tried to turn Chamlee
from the LID with the statement
that they are connected with the
Communist Party" Chamlee replied:
THAT has nothing to do with the
case. They've hired me to fight this
case. They are the only people de-
Tending these boys, the only ones
spending any money on their behalf.
All you fellows are doing is attack
ing the lid, knowing that if the
LID we're to withdraw from this case,
and me with them, these boys would
surely burn. The only thing you can
do if you really want to help, is to
get in touch with the lid, give them
all the financial support you can,
and stop attacking them"
Parents of Boys Indignant
When General Chamlee was shown
the statement Walter White had just
had Mrs. Williams sign, statement
barring Chamlee from the case, he
said, 81 would rather have a man
spit in my face"
