naloro Of Italy tangle at Turner's

losing to the Districts Gene
Smith, which has happened to a
lot of fighters. and the winner will
be in line for a return match

Cooper has had a long rest since
his defeats by Little Dynamite and
Smith knocked him off the perch
he held as Washingtons top
ranking 126-pounder. and is bent
upon winning back the big follow
ing he had only a year ago. He's
put in lot of work sharpening
the left hook that makes him such
hard man to match, anu he also
has added bolo punch.
Since his return to competition,
the speedy little Cooper has fought
draw with Elmer Barksdale of
Baltimore and defeated Charley
Mccarthy of New York. To beat
Mccarthy he had to come back
after a first-round knockdoWn.
Coopers loss to Smith was by a
technical knockout, while Annal-
orc bowed TO Smith on split de-
cision, the closest anyone has come
to defeating that hard hitting
District Negro.
Three flve-round bouts and a
pair of fours are on the prelim-
mary card starting at 8:45. Fives
