Injured Andrews
Stops Gonzales
With Quick Koyo

NEW YORK, Mar. Is Dr.
Eddie Andrews of Lowell, Mass,
stopped Tex Gonzalez of East
Orange. N. j.. in 1:41 of the
first round of a scheduled
10-round feature at st. Nicho-
las Arena last night.
Gonzalez. who had won "A
Of his 80 professional bouts,
was the favorite. But he never
really got his gloves on the
floor.
Andrews clipped Gonzalez
with q right to the head and
the latter went to the canvas
to the surprise of the crowd
Of 1902.
DR.. Alexander Schiff of the
New York State Athletic Com
mission said Andrews had a
cut on his hand and that he
had to keep his glove closed
tight. That might have added
to his punching proves.
At any rate, Andrews. who
never had fought outside of
the New England area, is in
for another bout at st. Nick's.
But Promoter Teddy Bren-
ner. happy at his newest find,
still is looking for an opponent.
He apparently was as sur
prised as the rest of the Gus
toners and TV viewers at the
result.
Andrews weighed 1881. Con-
zales 159. The receipts were
$3.50.

the second half. each with two
victories. plus three ties.
Montreal, winner Of the
Stanley Cup for the last two
years. finished well ahead of
the Second-place Rangers. De-
troit barely slipped into third
place by one point over Boston.
New York is in the playoffs
for the third straight season.
The Rangers won IL and tied

Their runnerup position was
the highest finish since they
won the championship in
