Hives the fans a run for their money,
and is a willing mixer and does not

pearances has always given a good ac
count of himself, lioth havo many
up porters.
The semi final event ought to he
another good houi. It is between
Kid Meadows ami Kid Sargent of
Ashland, tho latter being a tough
customer, who can box and take the
gaff. .Meadows is a clever boxer, and
if ho makes a good showing against
tho orally Ashlander, will probably
lie given a crack at Tom Sharkey.
There will be a preliminary and
a battle royal as curtain raisers. It'
the weather is good, there will be a
large delegation on liand from the
country districts.
