Ike Williams TKOs
Titular Fight
Is Halted In
Fourth Round
' Mexican's Boss Cries
r "Foul," Charging Negro
With "Eye Thumbing"
LOS ANGELES, July 22. UP)
The championship dream of Mex
ico's Enrique Bolanos was shat
tered by a lourth round techni
cal knockoui from the furiouj
fists of deadpan Ike Williams
but the result brought a qui:k
charge of "foul" from the Latin's
manager.
Bolanos went down and out
before a fusillade of punches in
the fourth round of their sched
uled 15-round clash for the light
weight championship of the world
last night. Some 18,999 . spec
tators paid $108,274 to see the
fierce beating, promoted for the
benefit of the Lou Costello Jr.,
youth foundation. Williams
weighed 135 pounds and Bolanos
133.
Early today, George Parnassus,
manager of the defeated chal
lenger, said his boy has been
"thumhed" In the eve and thus
blinded by Williams, a charge
which the champion quickly de
nied. Referee Jack Dempsey, like
wise, said he didn't see any foul
play with the thumb. But Par
nassus said he would take his
accusation before the (jamornia
Athletic commission In formal
protest.
It Is no secret that Bolanos'
left eve trouble marked the be
ginning of the end. It started
closing early in the third and was
shut completely by the end of
the round.
Parnassus said that Bolanos
complained as early as the first
round that Williams was giv
ing him "the thumb." Parnassus
protested to Dempsey In the third
who relayed the protest to Wil
liams.
Eye Injury Serious
Dr. R. J. Carrcon Jr., an eye
specialist who looked at the dam
aged orb a'ter the ficht, said
the Injury was serious. The dam
age to the retina, ne saia, was
such , that It would have to be
kept under observation for. at
least ten days to -prevent perma
nent damage. ',' . ;. .
The docLor commented that the
bruise on the evebull would have
been difficult, to Inflict with a
gloved fist. . .. ' . .
It was Enrique's third crack at
the Trenton, N. J Negro and
his third defeat at the hands ot
the 25-year-old champion..,
Champion Ike, appearing fast
er and stronger than in the'r
firevlous matches, started wing
ng at the opening bell. He had
the end In sight at the close of
the third canto when Bolanos'
left eye was shut tight from
Jolting right smashes.
Bolanos persuaded his corner
to let nlm go out for the fourth
where he battled on even terms
for the first minute. But then
the sky fell on him. -
A withering left hook "to En
rique's chin dropped him to both
knees. He was up at nine, but
Williams, with rocking blows to
the head and body, sent him to
the canvas again.
Referee Demnsev and Bolanos'
handlers hailed the proceedings
simultaneously with 20 seconds
left In the round.

Performance Of
PALS Draws
Heavy Applause
By DAN MINDOLOVICH
News-Review Sports Writer
Mickey Pease, PAL club di
rector, proved last night at Fin
lay field what can be done with
a group of boys when given the
opportunity to develop talents
that might be wasted but for such
an organization as he has
launched.
Spectators agreed by their
heavy applause that the partici
pants in the two-hour tumbling
and boxing show put on a brilli
ant performance that compared
favorably with the "performance
of professionals.
Johnny Rokstad, 12, and Blon
die Stanley, 14, amazed the crowd
with tumbling acts on both the
trampoline, a rectangular stretch
ed canvas device bordered by
springs, and the seesaw. Aided
by tumbling coach Jean Dunn,
the young couple went through
a routine of intricate maneuvers
that were thrilling and spectacu
lar to behold.
Little Johnny turned flips
while jumping two ropes one
swung by Dunn and Stanley, and
another turned by himself.
While Jumping both ropes at i
the same time, he also did Hips,
turns and belly flops on the
trampoline pretty hot stuff for
a 12-year-old who has been with
the organization only four
months.
Boxing Also Thrill
A retinue of ambitious and
hard-working boxers provided
many a thrill, in spite of the
fact that no KO's were recorded.
Fast action and grim determina
tion, with no punches pulled,
made up for lack of spilled blood.
Sportsmanship was evident
throughout the fights. Although
many of the contestants were
Negroes, fighters were not backed
on the basis of their skin color
ing. The underdog was usually
cheered, color notwithstanding.
In this respect, the troupe set an
example for others to follow.
Pease offered proof-positive that
a boy with "something to do" has
little time to become a statistic
in a juvenile court.
He also has little time to con
sider the merits of a natural or
acquired suntan.
positions will be Dick Jacobson,
Dick Lytle, Don Debernardi and
Larry Henninger.

the Roseburg Tennis club may

Hollywood had built up a 5-to-l
lead in the first seven innings
on Jack Salveson's five-hit per
formance. But the lowly Angels
crawled all over him in the
eighth for five hits and four runs
to tie it up. The game went 11
innings.
Hollywood now holds but a
5i game lead over Sacramento.
Speaking of amazing ball clubs

behind San Diego and Oakland,
tied for third place.
Oakland rallied to hand San
Francisco a 5 to 2 defeat. Earl
Rapp's eighth inning homer
broke up a 2-2 deadlock and
touched "off the rally. The vic
tory gave Earl Jones his sixth
win of the season against five
setbacks.

"Carl Hill's knowledge of fish

time, he has proven ability in or

particularly well suited to the of
