Hoping TO salvage at least some
glory from the 1887 valley league
football race, Calexico high schools
football team will shoot the works
in tonight's game against Brawley
In the Northend stadium at s o.
clock
The Bulldogs were rated one OF
the loops strongest teams in pre-

exico eleven rests in last place.

Vile turned the trick twice.
The Bulldogs only win came in
the seasons second game when
the Covingtonmen tripped Brawley

Tonight Brawley will be after
the unpredictable Bulldogs for re-

Ike Blair in
Victory Over
Jolting Joe

A cool. calculating Jimmie Allen.
who distained the clowning antics
of Ramon "Warwhoop' Burns Tues
day night handed the Phoenix In
dian a drubbing in the main event
at the Ell Centro athletic club.
Stepping out of his weight divi-
sion after defeating several lead
ing Nelterweights in the valley and
from the coast, Allen apparently
was not hampered by Burns six
pound weight edge.
The Ell Centre Negro dropped the
first round in trying to dope out
an offense to combat the weaving
and lodging tactics OF Burns, and
then came back stronger in each of
the three final cantos.
The second round was even and
Allen won the last two cantos by
comfortable margin.
Ike Blair provided the big upset
of the night by pounding out a
decisive win over Joe Villegas in
the semi -windup.
Blair, who was given little chance
to defeat the hard hitting Villegas
won three of the four rounds. He
kept his long left hand in Joe's face
all of the way and nearly floored
the Mexican battler in the fourth
canto.
Gene Navarro outpointed Joe Hal.

Holoyo decisioned G. Sanchez ir

Bobbie Pacheco won a decisive
victory over Cleo Shans in a fast
moving scrap and Joe Gonzalez de-
dor kayoed Vic Rolls in the first

Just what Jack Gray and his bud
dies will run up against in to-
nights game.
Though Holtville defeated CAL
exico twice and Brawley once in
league games the Vikings were
outgained in every contest.
Against Brawley and Calexico
it was a pass that brought victory
in two of the three games. Tonight
Ell Centro's backs will be on the
lookout for any heaves that might
spell touchdown or gain.
Holtville is favored on the paper
but take a look at the records,
study them carefully and then
weight the Spartan spirit. 1t looks
like an El Centre victory in the
Viking field.

tUPl-Th0se two outstanding

Yet this University of Califor-
MO football team which plays
Stanford at Palo Alto tomorrow
really has broken down the
deep reserve of the native sons.
This is an extraordinary thing,
when you stop to remember
that for years the citizens of
this state have refused to brag
about the sunshine, the scenic
