A week from tomorrow night Pro-
moter Joe Turner comes back with
a couple of featherweight fistic at

promise to be among the high lights

Turner is bringing in Chalky

Mexican titleholder, for a 1o-round

Laken. Since his arrival last April
he has given good account of him.

about opponents, Aviles lost to Willie
Pep in 10 rounds at Tampa after
knocking the champ through the
ropes. Then he beat Abe Denner,
stopped Bobby McMillen, lost
tough one to Lulu Costantino and in
his latest match drew with Phil
Terranova.
Wright beat Terranova last month
and lost to Costantino in Cleve-
land. He punished Costantino to
such an extent in number of
rounds that Lulu will be unable to
60 through with a bout with Beau
Jack this month.
Turner Has Faith in Petro.
Promoter Turner, having watched
Danny Petro in number of work
outs, believes the youngster is ready
for fresh start after his loss to
Jackie Wilson.
He is putting Petro against a
rugged featherweight in Cockfield, a
