o Len Gaines, Dupas Draw Oakland, Calif. (U.R) Leon ard Gaines, an unknown light weight from Richmond, Calif., today found himself classed with such contenders as Frankie Ryff by Ralph Dupas as the disap pointed New Orleans boxer tried to recover from the shock of being held to a draw by the 1-4 underdog. Gaines, who has had 14 pro fessional fights, was awarded a draw with second-ranking Du pas here last night and many fans thought the California Ne gro should have been given the decision. Dupas, who spent most of the night on his bicycle, closed fast enough In the njnth and tenth rounds to have Referee Jack Silver score the fight 55 1-2-54 1-2 in his favor. But Dupas lost a point for hitting Gaines with q a low right hand in the fifth round and that dropped the final Jly to 54 1-2-54 1-2. "This guy is as tough as Frankie Ryff and harder to hit than Johnny Gonsalves," Dupas said afterwards. "But I know I won. However, there's nothing I can do about Silver's decision." However, Jack Griffin who Is handling Dupas' managerial affairs in this state blasted the verdict as a hometown decision.
