Valley fans want their fights. A
fair sized crowd attended the fights
at Reynosa Sunday afternoon, de
spite the counter attractions over
the countryside. A good rowdy
time was enjoyed by all. Hinojosa
was knocked from his pedestal with
two stiff punches delivered by Sul
ly Montgomery. The Brownsville
leather slinger appeared to be
faster than the former Centre col
lege football star. But Bob could
n't lay on effective blows. His
blows lobbed and lolled off the side
of the husky Fort Worth battler’s
head. The towel was thrown in
the second round.
• • •
The old Anvil Sonata broke loose
into an indignant clamor when Kid
Gilbert was awarded a decision over
Brooks Hooper of Brownsville. The
fans refused to allow Referee Bob
Connor to make an announcement.
Each time he raised his hands for
silence, the hoots and catcalls in
creased to loudspeaker volume. The
thing finally got so personal that
Connor invited ne crying customer
into the ring, saying they would
settle things right there. The fan
! was a highly animated spectator,
but as a participant he rated nil.
The decision was returned by two
judges and the referee. Ralph Bray
of Mission and Ramon Becerril of
Brownsville were the Judges and
Connor was the referee. Bray saw
a draw. Becceril had them even up
until the ninth. He gave the fight
to Gilbert on his showing in the
tenth. Connor evidently sided with
Becceril.
• • •
A “draw'’ decision is more or less
a case of diplomacy. We doubt very
seriously if there ever was a draw
fought. Someone gets the better
of the points, although the battlers
look evenly matched. There are
many blows passed and blocked
during ten rounds. A draw, if such
a thing should really occur would
be a strange coincidence. But—how
much easier It Is to say “draw"
when the boys look evenly matched.
One is sure to get a yelping rise
out of someone when he renders a
verdict in a close fight. Draw is
generally acceptable to all. Even
the promoter* for he’ll get another
fight felt of it.
• • • M
Hooper proved himself a game lit
tle gentleman by stopping the cat
calls. He stepped into the ring and
announced that he was satisfied
with the decision. Gilbert was chal
lenged to a return match on a win
ner-take-all basis. Gilbert accept

Montgomery Blasts Hinojosa’s Hopes inReynosa Bout
SPANIARD OUT
IN 2ND ROUND
Sullivan Tossej In Towel
At Local Boy It Out
On Hit Feet
(Special to The Herald)
REYNOSA, Aug. 3.—Two stiff
punches from the ham-like' dukes
of one Sully Montgomery and the
debris of a pugilistic air castle
crashed down about the head of
Roberto Hinojosa, Bro w n s v i 11 e
heavy, in the bull ring here Monday
afternoon. The second round was
not a minute old before Jack Sul
livan threw in the towel to halt the
slaughter.
Hinojosa, a find of Sullivan's, had
previously fought seven times, win
ning six of these bouts by one
round knock-outs. Montgomery,
veteran brawler of Fort Worth, was
brought in to find out just how
good the Brownsville husky was.
The fighters had scarcely shook
their fists at each other in the first
round until Sufty cut loose a whis
1 tling left hook from his belt that
caught Hinojosa squarely on the
button. Roberto went over back
ward. thumping the mat with a re
sounding thud. Dazed, he clam
bered to his feet almost immedi
ately.
Resounding Crack
He went into his opponent wil
lingly despite his woozy condition.
Hinojosa was faster than his 200
pound opponent, but his blows slid
oft the side of Montgomery's head
or met elbows and gloves. The
Valley battler seemed to have re
covered from the knockdown by the
end of the round. He was doing
no damage, but was holding his
own on points.
The mauling, tugging and clinch
ing began in the second round.
Soon, however. Sully saw his open
ing and shot across a stiff right
punch to Hinojosa's head. Roberto's
feet flew upward as if attached to
balloons. He bounced off the mat
md his head hit the heavy floor
thirds vith a crack that could be
heard all over the arena.
Like Sleepwalker
Completely out. but evidently
acting from instinct. Hinojosa got
to his feet, turned his back to Mont
gomery and walked to a neutral
corner with a stupefied gleam in
his eyes. He had the appearance
of a sleep-walker.
Sully followed and began pum
meling him with a series of rights
and lefts. The Spaniard offered
little or no resistance. Sullivan
threw in the towel at this juncture.
In the second head-liner, Kid
Gilbert of Laredo, 135 pounds, was
awarded the decision over Brooks
Hooper, of Brownsville, 132 pounds,
after they had staged a clever 10
round exhibition of the art of modi
fied murder. The decision was
roundly booed. The catcalls con
tinued and it was some time before
Referee Bob Conner was able to an
nounce the main event. Each time
he raised his hands for silence the
Anvil Anthem was begun.
Hooper Pushes Fight
Hooper pushed th? fight through
out and Gilbert contented himself
with blocking his opponent off and
slashing out with his cocked left
when Brooks came in. Gilbert is
a southpaw. He played a waiting
game as his chisel jawed foe duck
ed, dodged and weaved about him
Hooper had difficulty getting under
. nr r~ —
•
Gilbert's right jab. The Laredoan
came out of his pugilistic hermitage
in the fifth, sixth and tenth rounds
to wax aggressive.
Neither of the two was hurt or
winded when the gong ended the
final canto.
Later, the Brownsville battler an
nounced that he was satisfied with
the booed decision and challenged
Gilbert to a return bout. He ac
cepted.
Kid Olivares ol Donna, 137
pounds, outpointed Kid Zavala of
Brownsville, 140 pounds, in a six
round prelim. Olivares, tall, rangy
battler, stood off and easily out
boxed Zavala after the first two
rounds.'
The four-round opener, between
Kid Huerta of Brownsville. 124
pounds, and Kid Nick of Donna,
126 pounds, resulted in a draw.
A fair sized crowd attended the
bouts.

If there existed any reasonable
doubts about either major league
pennant race, the Labor day double
header baseball feast dispelled
them.
Victory In both ends of yester
day’s double bill with the Yankees
enabled the Philadelphia Athletics
to lengthen their American league
advantage to 13 1-2 games. Simul
taneously the Chicago Cubs widen
ed the gap separating them from
second place Pittsburgh to 12 1-2
games by trouncing St. Louis
twice.
The As beat the Yankees 10 to
3 and 6 to 5. Old Jack Quinn kept
11 Yankee hits well scattered in
the opener. The Yankees appeared
to have the second game won, 5-4,
until the ninth when three hits
and Lary’s error gave the As two
runs and the game.
Indians Move t'p
Cleveland moved into third place
by downing the previous holders,
St. Louis 2 to 1 and 9 to 5.
Six runs in the last two innings
gave Detroit a 10-8 victory ever
