Through the Jonn Carbonell and efforts of Promo- by spe- arrangements by ier Earl this mportant bout, which may mean the elimination of one of the con- testants ranking list of leading contenders, brought West., According to re-| ports, boxing promoters all over the State of Florida have been trying to match the pair of pep- pery fighters Lackas in holding Hugh to a decision just recently. It seems thet the boy who is right up there in line for a crack at the has been dodging the Jer. sey City lad ever since the close fight Hughes. 2 fast moving boxer with guite a hard-hitting right hand, is going to try to prove that | he is a much better boxer than La who has been acting mighty big since the pair met time back, while the Jersey City pug is certain that he can whip Frankie and place himself in line fcr a crack at the title ncxt winter. Put on at considerable expense the fight tonight will feature the best boxing card of the season in South Florida Jimmie Pattersall, the known slugger from New York, mixes it with Al Beauhold, the St. Louis 149-pound promising welterweight in eight three-min- rounds in the semi-final. will be remembered boy who gave Red} Roberts Miami a boxing les son three weeks ago in a special six rounder.

A special added attraction, which may give the fans a thrill, will be the six-round _ prelimin- between Frankie Green, Mi- ni. and Chino Hernandez, local lightweight _ pride. Fans here have been asking to see Hernan- dez in action since the local boy made a name for himself last year as champion of his division in the CCC camp in Alabama.

McMahon, of the Conchs, start- | ed the game with a one-handed crip-shot. Barnes came right back and tied the score with a fly-away. Cadets took the lead in the first quarter and were only tied once afterward—in the third quarter. Both teams put up a good de- fense, but neither showed too good on offense. Tense moment of the game was when Smith of Key West} dribbled down the court and tied the score at 18-18 in the third period of play. Roberts also starred in the third quarter with | three successive field goals. Shorty Shulman, “Wonder Boy } of Riverside”, showed good play- ing with his fast defense and snappy. pop-shots. In the fourth quarter, Conchs fought hard, but could not hold the ball and so failed to regain a lead. | This game made the fourteenth win out of 28 games for the visi- tors. Roberts was high scorer for the Conchs, while Hall and Shul- | man starred for the Cadets.
