ATHLETES WILL
TAKE PART HERE
The result of the inter club meet
at Seattle Athletic club, between the
boxers of Multnomah, Seattle and
Ballard clubs, Is particularly Interest
ing as giving a line on the ability of
the representatives of these clubs who
will appear at the local meet at the
Oregon theater September 27 and 28.
Morrow's defeat of Metbus of Mult
nomah is a reversal of the result of
the first fight, when Melbus knocked
Morrow out in three rounds at the
X. A. tournament -last spring at
Seattle.
The Seattle club man's friends have
always claimed a fluke knockout, and
ust night's win by Morrow seems to
sustain that belief, although Morrow-
only secured a decision after four
rounds of slugging as against a clean
win by Melbus last spring.
The meeting at Pendleton is the
third affair between these two boxers
and each one will exert his best ef
forts to make the result decisive.
This settles the 175 pound northwest
amateur championship.
Duval's hard battle against Knowl-
ton, losing on a hairline decision,
will also be settled when they meet
at the local auditorrum. These boys
will contest in a four cornered meet,
all clubs having entries. The win
ners of the first night will be pitted
against each other In the finals.
Ed Williams, the local boxer, rep
resents Pendleton In the 135 pound
class and should he be returnned a
winner he will hold the undisputed
135 pound championship of the Pa
cific northwest.
The P. A. A. C. boxers are working
out with Dudley Evans and Fred Sax
every evening from 7:30 to 9:30 at the
P. A. A. club rooms.
Stanley Trimble of the Ballard,
Wash., club, w ill wear P. A. A. colors
in the 115 pound class. Stanley is a
verv clever boy.
From the West Side club of New
York comes a 135 pound amateur
boxer, a pupil of George McFadden.
He was tried out last night by both
Sax and Evans and will probably be
accepted to wear P. A. A. C. colors at
the meet.
Fast and furious boxing is the or
der at the club these nights and Dud
ley Evans promises some surprises to
the entrees from the three big clubs
when It comes to the finals.
Spokane A. A. C. Is sending a
heavyweight wrestler for Aubrey
Graham, and while ho does not quite
weigh up to the local boy, Bullivant
the Spokane director, says that he
will be a good match for Graham as
his entry Is an expert wrestler,
Graham has Just returned from a trip
to Portland where he had a few
bouts with some of the big crack
wrestlers and Is feeling happy over
the prospect of having secured an op
ponent.
