The winners of the recent ama-
teur tourney here will be matched
With each' other in features of the
next Jaycee boxing show at Arm- •
ory Hall Munday night, June 3.
Headlining the night’s perform-
ances will be the Tom Attra-
Houston Savage go.
Attra, state Golden
champion of the i
class, has picked up too much
poundage and will tangle with the
Palacios lad in pie heivyweight
division. * ’
Savage was district champion
in 1939 and bids fair to become
i dhe of the best heavyweights
Texas has produced in years.
' Attra is one of the hardest hft-
ters seen in Brenham in a long
while and the weight advantage
that Savage will hold will prac-
tically go for naught.
Reduced admission prices shduld
bring forth a packed house.
Travis Phillips, promoter for the
, Jaycees, promises a well handled
show that will be a crowd-pleaser.
In the semi-final match of the
evening Roy Fisher, hard
Houston amateur, will mix it with;
Walter Florence, University of
Texas lad.
Florence impressed the 1 '
fans during the tournament as one,
of the best prospects in the mept,
but the tough Bayojj City fighter
can' make things very, ,very In-
teresting.
Brenham amateurs will also
matched with outsiders.
