Round Headliner

i A boxing card that wiil alio
fans to see some fast action, with
popular fighters as the principals,
nas been arranged by Promoter
Clyde Wlard for Friday evening
December 28. Local fans have
seen some flue cards during the
fall and winter months, and Mr.
1 Wiard, In slating the coming bouts,
has evidently arranged one of the
best to be seen so far, at least
I so it would be judged from Uie
line-up of material, as each man
' on the card, with the exception of
1 some of the preliminary fighters.
i has- been seen fn the arena here
before and his atyle of figh'ir? is
known.
The main event will be a 10
:h round engagement bet ween CM
Hermann, Salt Iake City boxer
wrestler, and Frank is Burnell,
i'ortland "buzz-saw." These fight
; ers have never before, been
brought together in the same ring,
although they have both been
' fighting In the same class with
about equal results.
i Hermann la well known anf
j very popular in Roseburg- He
has won several fights here by
knockouts, and has served as re
' feree in many fight programs. He
1 has a fine record as a boxer, most
: of his battles being won by knock
, outs. He has been working in the
Salt Lake district around his
i home, and Is just returning to
' Oregon. He plans to be here
! Sunday to start working out.
I Burnell, the Portland buzz-saw,
is one the boxing sensations of
, the state. Ho has only been box
iing for a year, but has had 11
I bouts, resulting in 23 kuockouttt,
! 11 decisions, 3 draws and 4 lost
j The style of fighting is such
that a good fight is assured. Her
, mann Is a eleven defensive fight
er who carries a terrific wallop,
awaiting his time to deliver a
; knockout, which he has done very
r frequently. He Is not a sensa
tional appearing fighter, but has
maintained a fine record. Despite
the fact that he Is "of the defen
sive type, he does not hesitate to
ing in from the first bell and tear-
ing away with both hands, each of
which carries a knockout punch.
rue battle between these two j
boys should furnish fans with a I
real thrill. j
The semi-final will a I no give a
local crowd a lot of pleasure. It
is to be an eight-round bout be
tween "Knockout" Brown of Rose
burg and "Flash" Kelley of Porl
land. Brown has been staging a
come back recently and has given
the fight followers some thrills.
Kelley Is a fast boxer, who will
give Brown some touch moments.
As a special event Promoter
Viard is rematching Rattling Judd
fore h aving the ring. Fans who
saw that battle will want to see
the boys In action again.
There will also be two or more
good preliminaries.
