Gloomy Gust Johnson, Pacific

dubious honor of meeting the

are masters of the deadly surf

as a battle to see who gets who
In the fall-producer, Johnson,
while he likes his grappling to

row is not beyond clipping his
foe on the whiskers if he asks
for It as the Weed Assassin Is
sure to do.
Promoter Mack Lillard again
called attention to the fact that
the main event will be for six
ten-minute rounds instead of the
straight time limit as used In
the past for top bouts.
Jack Klser, loser in his last
two armory tussles, will collide
with Terrible Tony Ross In the
semi-wlndup. The winner can
be practically assured of a main
event clash, probably a future
date with the Mask.
