Antuna> Pacheco TO Meet
Border City
TitIehoIder
In Top Spot


Johnny Antuna, hard hitting
Brawley Mexican. Will challenge
Bobby Pacheco's claim TO the fea-
therweight championship of Impe-
rial Valley tonight in the main
event at the CaleXico athletic club.
Pacheco defeated Antuna in the
first meeting between the two bat
tiers but the decision was not un-
animouS.
frankie Cannett and Cleo ShanS
will tangle in the semi-windup and
Greg Escalona and Lee Flores will
pound each other in the third fea-
ture bout Of the night.
Pacheco. long one of the favor
ties in CaleXico, is rapidly develop
ing into one of the finest amateur
boxers in the valley. A second vic
tory over Antuna will earn him
bigger and better men to conquer
in future main events.
The featherweight champ hits
hard with either fist and is a bet
ter than average defensive fight
er. His strength gives him an ad-
vantage in clinches and that edge
will probably win tonight's fight
against Antuna

SPORT slPARAD9Ea
hAAEHtSahD,
BY HENRY McLEMORE

ST. AUGUSTINE. Fla, Mar. II
6UP)-Note to sports editors: For
your convenience, in case the pro-
amateur team of Lawson Little and
Henry McLemore wins the $4,000
tournament which begins here to-
day, the following golf biographies
of the two players are attached
william Lawson Little: A San
Francisco boy who IS one of the
games longest hitters. Established
an amazing record as an amateur
when, in 1884 and 1885. he won
both the British and U. S. amateur
titles. Since turning professional
he has won many tournaments, in
cluding the Canadian open and the
San Francisco match play. The
former with an all-time record
medal score of 271.
Recently finished third in the
s8,500 Los Angeles open, and is
ranked as one of the country's
greatest and most colorful players.
Henry McLemore: Macon, Ga,
boy who is one Of the games short
est drivers, but makes up for his
lack of distance off the tee by the
sloWness with which he walks to
his ball. It takes him just as long
to get to his drives as it does jim
my Thomson to get to his.
McLemore likes to tee up his ball
in the rough and will do it con-
sistently if not watched. McLemore
contends that if by elevating
ball in the rough a mere fraction
OF an inch you are able to gain
so yards or more in distance, a man
is sucker not to tee it up.
Is very sentimental and likes to
have close relatives or persons he
has something on, caddy for him.
First came into prominence as a
golfer in 1881 when he was runner
up in the ladies open Tom Thumb
championship in Minneapolis.
Playing from the back tees, and
wearing MILDLY blouse, McLemore
was we'll on the way to the finals
when his wig fell off.
Favors the closed stance in closed
tournaments and the open stance in
open tournaments.
Plays with a shut face club and
an open mouth.
At Pinehurst, McLemore is re-
membered as the man who defeat
ed Francis Ouimet, former open
and amateur champion. He played
with OUIMET and not against
HIM.
Maureen Orcutt once gave Nc
Lemore a stroke a hole and the
best Maureen could do was to eke
out an l8-up victory.
Although he has never won a
large tournament, he has played in
great many and will be remem-
bered as the only man ever to play
full brassie into the refreshment
tent at the Bing Crosby $4,000
open. In the 1885 north and south
open he once again made an amaz-
ing shot Playing off the first tee
he drove into the back seat of a
car parked directly behind him.
Regarded as a great money play
er McLemore has taken dough
from the following celebrated
match players: Guy Kibbee, Clar-
ence Buddington Kelland, Grant
land Rice, Scoop Conlon, Gregory
La Cava, Fred Perry, George Lott,
Frank Condor, Oliver Hardy, Lin
de Fowler, Dick Arlen, Bing Crosby,
and Billy Depeck.
Compare these two records, par
ticularly Mr.. Little's with those of
any other professional l-amateur
combination in the field. The re-
suits will be unbelievable.
Further note to sports editors:
Mr.. McLemore has announced his
/ intention OF turning professional
in case he and Mr.. Little win. He
has no intention of not getting his
/ $500 split
