his light against "Buzzsaw" Zimmer
man at the armory last night to
take the first round of the light
weight elimination boxing tourna
ment now under way here under the
direction of Mack Lillard, Medford
fight promoter. Monroe won a de
cision over Zimmerman, having a
slight edge In practically every round.

more chance at the crown, as each
fighter must be defeated twice to be
entirely out of the tournament.
. Roy Harris of Phoenix went to a
draw with Bob Irwin of Medford In
a good match, with Harris substitut
ing for Prankle Jewett, who failed to
show up. Chief Grey Eagle of Chllo
quln and Dave Morris also went to
a draw, although Morris slipped to
his knees several times during the
fight. Chief Grey Eagle landed sev
eral solid rights to Morrla head
which shook the Klamath boy, but at
no time was he groggy..
Battling Be no, who put up a sen
sational fight against Jack McCarthy
two weeks ago, caught one on the
chin In the first round and lost by
a knockout to Cliff Sparr of Medford.
The Beno-Sparr fight was the big
surprise of the evening.
Next Wednesday's card will be led
by a bbut between Herb White, Med
ford. and "Butch" Johnson, light
weight champ of the Klamath reser
vation. The WhlteTJohnson bout will
be the second official bout of the
light weight tournament, and fans
will see jQhnson here for the first
time. He has long been a favorite
In Klamath Falls.

ting on weight, also wants to get In
on the tournament, and last night
Issued a challenge to any lightweight
or any fighter between 127 and 130.
