DALLAS, March 27.-P1-Texas'
most interesting heavyweight prize
fight since l~egalization Of the sport
will be held here Wednesday night
between Kingfish Levinsky Of Chi
cago and Babe Hunt Of Ponca City,
Oklahoma.
The bout Is scheduled for 10
rounds.
Both fighters concluded training
Tuesday with road work. The
Kingfish weighed in at 204is
pounds and Hunt at 1875 pounds.
Handlers OF the Kingfish admitted
he was in the best condition pos
sible and that they were confident
he would stop Hunt within eight
rounds.
Because OF his impressive record
agains such fighters as Primo Car
nera. Art Lasky. Jack Sharkey.
Make Baer, Jack Dempsey and
other top-notchers, the Kingfish
ruled a slight favorite. The Chicago
fighter is a stiff puncher and a
willing mixer. which Is a good COM
bination To put against Hunt who
has a terrific right hand and is a
clever boxer.
Hunt realizes that Wednesday
night he will get his big chance 70
lift himself into the spotlight Of the
~avyweight championship circle.
Levinsky is going into the ring with
everything to lose and nothing to
gain except his percentage Of the
gate receipts.
Promoter Dick Griffin said he
expected a near sell-out due to the
heavy advance sale. The Fair Park
arena will seat approximately 1000
persons.

Sey veteran the No. / challenger for
Max Baer's heavyweight title.
They informed Madison Square

its plans for sending Max Schmel-
ing against Baer for the title here

II the Garden wants to hold a
Baer-Schmeling bout in this state,
they said. Schmeling first will have

That tournament. incidentally,

wrecked Jimmy Johnston's well-laid
plans for a championship battle
between the two Makes. The commits
sion ruled that since the Garden
had advertised the tournament as a
series of Examinations designed 10

The solons gave the Garden one
"out." They said they would approve

champion from Germany would meet
Braddock first.
Neither Colonel John Reed Kill

Johnston would indicate Just what
course the Garden would pursue, but

were only two alternatives:

HOOK, LOPEZ
MEET FRIDAY
Return Bout Expected To
Attract Capacity
Crowd
Especial to The Herald)

HARLINGEN, March 27.-The
fight that Valley fans have been ask
ing fora return bout between Guero
Lopez and Henry Hook-will be Serv-
ed up at the American Legion arena
here Friday night.
They fought once before in
Brownsville and Hook was given the
decision, but the verdict sent more
than half the fans home yelling their
heads off that a rank injustice had
been done.
Lopez, the fans felt, was certainly
entitled TO no less than a draw, and
after the fight Hook himself ad-
mitted that Lopez was far and away
the best scrapper he had encountered
in the south Texas territory.
That was the only fight that Lo-
peg, a hard-hitting Monterrey prod
uct, ever lost in the Valley. The
"Guero' was burned up by the In
dianapolis boys rough tactics and
was anxious for a re-match. The
bout "a not put on at the time being
because Of a tiff between match
makers Of the Brownsville and Har-
lingen arenas.
Hook is near top form at present
as was shown by his eighth round
kayo Of Kid Bruno in San Antonio
Tuesday night. The Indianapolis
Hurricane fought Bruno once be-
fore in the Harlingen arena. taking
a decision.
1t was only through the efforts Of
Rudy Gonzales, Laredo sportsman.
that the management was able to
sign Lopez for the Friday night scrap.
Gonzales made a trip to Monterrey
TO line the "Guero" UP for the re-
turn bout.
The fight should be one of the
best seen in the Valley in many a
moon. There Is no doubt about
Hooks class for he rates with the
top Is bantams in the country. And
there also is no doubt but that Lo-
peg is the most worthy opposition
that has been tossed in Hooks
path in this section.
A strong supporting card has been
arranged for the Friday night event.
