Tracy Cox carried too many guns

junior weller, appearing in fine

round point triumph over the De-
troit battler at Tomlinson hall

Tracy bombarded the Michigan
youngster with both hands in the
late rounds after Alvarado had
held him close in the opening

the decision by a wide margin.
Weighing 1904 pounds, three
pounds more than his rival, Cox
was at his best. He hammered AL
varado's body and cut his face, but
scored only one short count knock
down, in the fifth round. Both
boys mixed freely.
