LOUTITT WANTS 1 Timt TO PRIME TOMMY FOR MIX Definite ennouncement of the Binning of Tommy O'Brien and Phi! Hayes for a 10-round main event was made here yesterday afternoon by Matchmaker Harry Plant. How ever, the engagement, planned for May 4. will not be staqed until the (1 week following. May 11, it was Stat H The advancing of the date one signing of O'Brien for a main event In Portland against "Wildcat" Car ter, the negro fighter, next Tuesday night. Tola Loulill, Out icn 3 man ager. declared lliat it would be a.sk Jug too much to fjijht a:;nm so soon as the Irish lad has had to crowd feveral bouts here lately and. It was wild, lie would not be m the be.st of condition to meet, the toii",h Bayes. This, however, works riht into plans several fiKht fans have hoped would happen a chance to witness a return match between Phil and Allie Taylor, the Bend wildcat. It will bo remembered that Bayes defeated Taylor in a thrillintr match in Bend last year and the fight was so fjood that another was billed, this time in Salem. In the second meet- Intr Taylor reversed the tables and administered terrific punishment to Baves car, winning the fight ens iiy. That aroused the local pride's Ire and he has been angling after third bout fcince, challenging Taylor at every opportunity. Now Bayes Is back from a successful trip to Aus tralia, where he had three fights, winning two of them and dropping the other by a narrow margin. In the first bout Bayes met Dc loon and lost in the last four rounds after carrying the battle for the first IB rounds. After that engage ment the main event bouts on the island were cut down to fifteen. giving the United States fighter a better chance to show hu real abll ity. The next fight went to Bayej and finally a return contest was arranged between Bayes and De- leon. Phil worked hard for that en garremcnt and was rewarded by Retting the verdict. Now, with a feel ins of remarkable Improvement and the knowledge that he can travel ft long distance without showing the signs or tiring Bayes ts anxious to get a crack at the eastern Oregon wonder and show him that the first light was no mistake. Plant is almost certain that the Taylur-Bayes bout will be arranged and, if so, it will be held on May 4, the date of the proposed O'Brien event. Pinal details will be arranged by late this afternoon or early to morrow, it was indicated. CARDS, GIANTS EACH SCORE WIN Bv Associated Press.)
