Little Pancho, less flashy but more experienced than when he left the Philippines almost three years ago to invade American rings, outpointed Star Frisco in the feature bout of the Eastern Boxing Club card at the Rizal Memorial Tennis Stadium last week and became the new bantamweight champion of the Orient. The bout, which went 12 rounds, headed a card of four main events.
