GREAT INTEREST IN COMING
THANKSGIVING SMOKER
The match between the two mat ar
tists, Roy Anderson and James Thoreg

Interest among local fans.
Anderson has won two bouts in
this city recently and has shown that
he has the goods and be has a num
ber of ardent followers In the com
ing bout
Thores has proved himself a hard
man to down and no doubt will give
Anderson something more to do than
he has so far experienced in the local
bouu. His coming to Prineville is a
lucky pick-up by Matchmaker John
son, as it Is not often that men of
his caliber are seen outside ot the
larger cities.
