Mixed Amateur Fight
Is Booked for Friday

First amateur sports contest here
between Negro and white athletes
since the local AAU ban on such
events in some sports was lifted last
week is scheduled Friday night at
Turner's Arena. There will be one
mixed bout on the boxing program
sponsored by the Metropolitan ANA
teur Athletic Association, a Negro
organization.
1t will be a three-round match
between FeatherWeight Billy Wright,
a white soldier stationed at Boiling
Field, and an opponent yet to be
selected.
Announcement of plans for the
bout was made by Cleo Michael,
MAAA program director. He said
AAU sanction for such a fight was
requested Immediately after last
weeks AAU action, and that he had
been assured verbally yesterday that
a permit would be issued in time
for Fridays fights.
The MAAA was organized about
three years ago with the announced
purpose of giving Negro athletes
chance to find more competition
than ordinarily would be available to
them under restrictions imposed by
the local AAU. 1t has sponsored
programs in boxing, football and
baseball.

A fight that should pack Turner's
Arena for the first time this year
will be the return bout between
Puggy King and Jimmy Cooper, a
pair of fast little featherweights
who in prelim last night worked to
"a six-round draw. 1t was by far
the best fight at the arena this
season, and made the main event
look terrible by comparison.
Matchmaker Gabe Menendez
plans to rebook King and Cooper
on top as soon as King RECEIVERS
from a set of badly banged up
hands. His knuckles on both hands,
particularly the right, were showed
all out of place from banging Coop
er on the head. King collapsed from
the pain at the end of the fifth
round, but got up and won the sixth.
An x-ray examination was sched-
uled today to see if anything was
broken. 1t was a m-bang battle
all the way, with Referee Marty
gallagher and Judge Joe Trigg vot-
ing it a draw and Judge R. c. Kill
martin calling it for King.
In sthe main event StoneWall
Jackson chilled Pat Demers in the
seventh. 1t was no contest, with
Stonewall leading all the way. He
was willing to fight, but Demers
wasn't. Demers showed up for the
fight, and that's about all.
In a couple of five-round pre-
Inns, Roscoe Mercer decisioned Flat

Southwest Grid Loon
Attendance Reaches
Sdturation Point
BY the Assoeioted Press

DALLAS, Tex, Oct. 2l.-Football
attendance in the Southwest Con-
ference has reached the saturation
pcint-there will have to be larger
stadia for it to get any bigger.
Reports from the seven Confer
ence members show that IA home
games to date have drawn 296 ,676
while II home games for the same
period last year packed in 377,783.
The average is off about 1000 per
game, mainly because Texas and
Rice have played fewer games than
last season. Texas and Rice always
draw the most fans.
Texas, for instance, had las. 900
for four games last year and has
reported $4,000 for two this season.
Rice had $4,000 for one this year
compared to 69,744 for three last
year. Its average is higher for 1947.
The Texas Oklahoma and Texas
A. and M.-Texas Tech games at
Dallas and San Antonio, respective
ly, are not included in this years
total, although they are considered
home games. However, each was
about the same each year, so there
would be no difference in the av-
erage.
Here are the reports on home at

year: Number of games in paren-
