LAREDO BATTLER
HELD JR. TITLE

The manner I'm which Ross won
the Junior weller title is OF partic-
ular interest 20 Valley fans In view
OF the fact that Battling Shaw CJose
Perez Of Laredo once held the
crown.
Shaw. who campaigned at Mer-
cedes under al Robinson and az Fort
Brown under Tex BecerriI. shellack-
ed Johnny Jaddick for the off-brand
championship. The Laredo boy con-
tinued 10 do fairly well until ne ran
into Tony Canzoneri AZ New Or
leans.
Cansoneri lifted Shaw's title and
later lost il 10 Ross.
The Laredo Scrapper returned 70
Texas and was ruined In a Laredo
ring by Tracy "Killer" Cox. shaw
has not fought n decent fight since
he ran UP against the pounding
fists or the Indianapolis sensation
The last time Valley fans saw
shaw was the night he took on
punch-drunk Tommy White In q
miserable exhibition az HarlinEen.
ValIeyites turned out In droves 10 see
their old-time favorite but we're
badly disappointed by Shaw's re-
verssl Of form.

duced In the American Legion arena

Jimmy Finley.
This fight, which looks like one
OF the best booked here In full
many q moon. Is expected TO draw
out a large delegation OF Valley
fans. They know what to expect
OF Bruno. and Hooks reputation Is
such that N great fight Is expected.
The bout will pit two sluggers.
Hooks freely admits that he Is no
boxer: he wins his fights through
the lethal qualities Of his two-fist-
ed attack. Among the Scrappers
who have gone down before him
are Henry Moreno, Kid Laredo.
Midget Aztec and "Barrilito." all OF
whom are well regarded BY Valley
fans. Moreno decisioned Midget

The indianapolis boy has about
l65 bouts to his credit In four years

Valley fans: they all know his rec
ord well. His popularity In the
Harlingen ring pulled In the largest

in good condition. and he has ap-
peared 50 IN workouts IN the Har-

liam Fl. Alfalfa Bill" Murray, for
mel governor OF Oklahoma. has re-
turned to the ranks as a private cit
izen, and has not interest or amhi-
ton in politics. The fiery states
ma made this known Sunday night
when ne was interviewed In his no.
tcl room here as he broke his trip
70 the Mexican border country for q
brief visit with old friends.
4 may never re-enter politics. I
won't unless II Is worth while" Muir
ray said. He Is making his trip by
automobile and is accompanied by
his son, w. II. Murray, Jr.
II am going TO Mexico for a rest.
! don't hunt and fish. and when !
need rest ! Just get off where no
body knows me. and read and rest.
That's why I'm going to Mexico.
I may even change my name SO that
! can drop from sight entEeIy," he
continued.
The ex-governor said that he
planned to continue his trip By easy
stages. emphasizing the fact that he
meant TO sleep late in the morn
ings, make brief visits at Workman.
Mexia. Buffalo. Austin. and San
Antonio before reaching the border,
There r some things around

Texas bunch Is as smart as the Ok
lahoma gang. Those Oklahoma fell
lows have been everywhere. and
those that haven't are smart enough
20 compare notes with those who
have.
But Oklahoma has a good leg
islature, and the senate is an e5-
pecially fine bunch of men," Muir
ray said.
Murray expressed grave fears for
the safety Of the nation II the u. S.
supreme court does not approve ad-
ministration policies. and an at
tempt Is made to double the size OF
