one occasion meeting
JMike Yokel for tlio
championship of tho
world and they wrest
led 3 hrs. and'o7 min

only defeat against
Young Samson in the
last five years was
when Ad. Santell, af
ter 2 hrs. and 8 min
utes of hard work pin
ned his shoulders to George Samson f
the mat, which was in itself praiseworthy to Young Samson, with the handicap
of Itf pounds in weight. Jack O'Neill holds the light heavyweight champion
ship of the Pacific Coast. There will be not more than five pounds difference in
the weight of the Jwo men, and lovers of the sport will wituess a match that
will be long remembered.
