Petro Displays Punch
In Feather Victory
Stops Stewart in 9th;
Honbury Is Outpointed

Danny PetrO's entrance into the
Army, expected late this month if
he passes his physical today, puts
the kayo on any hopes Promoter
Joe Turner had for matching the
winners of last nights two feather
weight scraps at Turner's Arena
unless, of course, Danny is sent
to an induction camp near Wash
ington. 1t probably wouldn't be
bad brawl, though, if the boys
could get together, although Jimmy
Phillips Of Baltimore and not Wash
ingtons Lew Hanbury. slight pre-
fight favorite, was the winner Of
the semi-feature.
Both Petro and Phillips are rough
fighters. Danny has the punch and
fire and Jimmy the speed and reach
and perhaps an edge in skill
Petros victory over Wayman
Stewart, local Negro, was repeat
performance of their earlier meet
ing, t. k. o. for Petro in 1.40 of
the eighth round. Only this time
1t was a right that finally floored
Stewart after he had been softened
throughout by stream of lefts to
the face and body Stewart didn't
make the showing he did last time
and it was Petro all the way.
Stewart took quite a beating. He
had a cut over his right eve from
the first round, picked up a cut over
his left eye in the fourth and added
a sliced lip in the eighth. He man
aged to stand up pretty we'll under
some good blows, however. He took
a count Of five when sent through
the ropes in the third.
Stewart then got in a few punches
that had Petro worried but there
after Danny belted his opponent
around at will. In the eighth
Stewart stopped a right with his
jaw and went down for nine. He
managed to stagger to his feet. but
Referee Charley Reynolds stopped
him there.
In the Hanbury-Phillips go. also
an eight. Lewis timing was a bit off
apparently because of his three
month layoff with a broken hand
He wasn't sharp enough with his
punches and Phillips rushing tao
tics gave him few chances to get
set.
One other technical kayo was
registered, John Garner stopping
Hershal Todd at the end of five
rounds Of scheduled six. In a
crowd-pleasing opener, Billy Morris
got the decision over Make Starr
while the card was completed with
Leon Kennedys round decision
