CHARLEY GETS
GOLD MEDAL
Brownsville Boy Defeats
Lowery of Beaumont
In Finals ,
Charley Delgado, clever, fast
stepping Brownsville high school
amateur boxer, won the state
bantamweight championship in the
T. N. A. A. tournament Just con
cluded at Houston.
He was handed the diamond
studded gold medal emblematic of
the state championship after he
gave Paul Lower}', pride of Beau
mont, a boxing lesson in the final
event of the bantamweight elim
ination. This bout almost stole
the championship show away from
the heavier contestants. Fast all
the way, with hard rights and
lefts to the face and body hailing,
this bout kept the fans in an up
roar all the way.
Six contestants, three from Hous
ton, two from Beaumont, and
Delgado entered the bantamweight
competition. In the first round,
Delgado easily outclassed Herbert
Lawler of Houston; Johnny Her
nandez. city champion of Houston,
beat Cecil Gay of Beaumont; and
Jesse Vela of Houston forfeited to
Paul Lowery of Beaumont. Del
gado drew the bye in the aemi
fnials. Lowery won a sensational
fight from Hernandez in the
smei-final.
In the final bout, Delgado took
all three rounds from the Beau
mont fighter. He had him on the
verge of a knockout in the second
round, but, remembering his fight
last year with Nick Peters, Del
gado eased up and coasted in with
the prized championship.
Delgado went to the finals of
the state A. A. U. tournament
last year only to be beaten by
Peters of San Antonio. Delgado
took a long lead in the bout but
tried too hard in the opening
rounds and tired badly.
Thomas Glenn, another Browns
ville high amateur, made the trip
but sprained an ankle and was
unable to compete.
Emanuel Dee, Houston champion
who beat Bill Cabler of Browns
ville last year, was whipped in the
T. N A. A. tournament by a wild
whirlwind from Beaumont by the
name of Raymond Lightfoot.
