Post-Press Sports Editor

: The long asked question, what
chance would an opponent or group
of opponents have against the
Hogue twins if they could combine
their resources, may be answered
Friday night on the Ell Centro
gridiron when the Mountain En-
pire varsity footballers meet the El
Centro "B" squad. The Hogue
twins, it is reported, are mainstays
of the Mountain Empire eleven.
w. Ralph Focht, former member
of the El Centro high school facul-
ty, is the head coach at the Noun
tain Empire school.
The Mt. Empire "B" squad game
which will be played Immediately
before the Holtville-El Centro game
may turn out to be the best game
Of the night. The Mountain En-
pire team is undefeated, and though
extremely light, is reputed to be a
fast and tricky ball club.
Coach Focht in a letter to Coach
w. S. Taylor indicated his team
would run roughshod over the To-
cal team. The letter follows:
My Dear Coach Taylor:
Unless We hear to the contrary
we will plan to be ready to play
at o'clock Friday, October 80. Now
do not go spend good money for
high powered officials as there is
plenty of local talent that will be
satisfactory and far BETTER than
you will get up here. Any ar
rangement you make will be OK
with US as we are going to BEAT
you so bad We will need no officials
on our side.
Looking forward to a lot Of fun

SHORTY HOGUE.
RISKS RECORD

Willis shorty" Hogue, the only
undefeated amateur in Imperial
Valley, will risk his perfect record
Thursday night in the Ell Centre
athletic club when he will match
blows with Fred Koch, flashy U. S.
Navy junior lightweight.
Fred Koch has dropped only one
bout in months at the hands of Big
Boy Hogue last week.
Jack Morrissette, valley middle
weight champion, will meet Joe
Hawkins of the U. S. Navy on the
first battle of a triple main event.
Hawkins, hard hitting Negro, is
fast moving toward the top in mid
dleweight division in the fleet.
Herman DE Bommah" Graves,
sensational Ell Centro Negro, will
tangle with Don Stewart and Big
Boy Hogue will meet Hal Richards
in the other bouts of the triple
main events.
Richards, who pasted the day
lights out of Ernie Burgi two weeks
ago, will prove Hogues stiffest test
of the year. The Los Angeles
| fighter is an outstanding boxer, hits
hard with either fist and holds a
string of victories equally as i'm
pressive as that of the Hogue twin
Should Big Boy emerge victorious
Thursday night he can truly be ac-
claimed the outstanding amateur OF
the valley.

mainder Of the season. After try

pable Spartan reserve lineman on

PARADE
By Henry McLemore

NEW YORK, Oct %. U.p)-If you
are close follower of prizefight-
ing-and most of us are, if only
because of its tremendous impor-
tance in world affairs you un-
doubtedly have read of Harry Bal
samo, who is known to his intim-
ates in the profession as The Belt
ing Brakeman" "Slambango Bal
samo," and simply "Balsamo the
Bloodthirsty'
Harry Balsamo, young man with
the slanting beetle brow often
found in intellectuas and good
right hand hitters, was projected
into world attention recently when
he put what is known as the slug
on one of Germanys more prom
inent citizens, Herr Eric Seelig. The
slug" was put on Herr Seelig in
the first round of bout in which
he was favored, and stiffened him
horizontally in a great hurry.
The boxing critics immediately
hailed Harry Balsamo, who had
been piecing out his income by
serving as subway brakeman, as
the deadliest killer since Cain. In
their enthusiasm, which has height
ened by the sight of Herr Seelig
stretched out on the canvas as if
being readied for a burial at sea,
they overlooked the risk they ran.
They entirely forgot that to hail
a fighter as a killer for knocking
out foreign opponent is much the
same as calling a golfer another
Bobby Jones because he Shot in the
low sixties on a Tom Thumb course
But as it turned out, the critics
were right. Harry Balsamo is a
killer. We know he is because
since putting the slug on Herr
Seelig he has admitted it a dozen
times, and with appropriate growls,
snarls and clenched fist gestures.
Harry fights Babe Risko, former
middleweight champion, tonight at
Mike Jacobs gaudily elegant Hip
podrome Club where white ties and
tails are as common as some OF
those who wear them.
If Promoter Jacobs will promise
to keep him chained plan to de-
scend to the dressing room and
watch him warp the wallpaper with
his pre-battle venom. In tomorrow S
| installment-andd don't miss it-I
will paint a good word picture of
! killer before and after killing.
