We will be always neighbor-

LOODED UNDER
Big Charity Boxing Card Will
Be Staged Tonight; Opener To
Feature Unknown "White Hope"
Kiddies' Christmas Benefit Fund Will be Aided
By Fighters and Promoters Malin
Farmer Boy to Make Debut All
Boxers On Edge
Tonight's the night when the big benefit boxing card
will be staged at Scandia hall, with the profits going to
the Kiddies' Christmas fund, promoted by the Evening
Herald, to supply the poor kids of Klamath Falls with
a real Christmas.
Twenty-four rounds of real boxing and quite a bit of
slugging will be dished up to Klamath's ring worms,
starting promptly at 8:30.
Ordinarily, the main event rates top position in a
boxing story, by an eleventh-hour switch in the curtain
raiser as announced this morning by Matchmaker John
nie Sylvester,- looks so good that the boys and girls vho
pay out their cash ought to know all about it.
A tall young giant from Malin, fighting under the
name of "Knockout Hogan," will make his ring debut
against Jim Fleming, who won a technical knockout
over Henry Burke on the last card. This will not be a
clown match. "Hogan," who is the son of a prominent
Malin farmer' hss been in training for several weeks un
der the tutelage of Sylvester. He has mustered the
rudiments of the ring game so speedily that Sylvester
decided to put these boys on in the opener and give the
fans a real run for their money at the start of the show.
This bout will have the fans buzzing for the rest of the
evening.
MiFce De Pinto and Billy Watson are all primed and
ready for their 10-round main event. These two little
game cocks will fly at each other at the tap of the gong
and will be pecking away with hooks and jabs in as
pretty a bout as can be seen anywhere between a couple
of evenly matched lightweights.
Another bout that will be a corker is the six-round
semi-windup with Chuck Sams and Mickey, Gibbons try
ing to plant rights and lefts on each other's chins. This
bout will give the local boy, Sams his aci dtest, as Gib
bons comes to Klamath from California with a real repu
tation that he will try his best to uphold. If he gets over
Sams he has been promised another bout on the next
card, providing he meets with the approval of the fans.
Sid Herbert, a popular Klamath boy, will get back in
his ring togs when he faces Kid Clark of Portland, in a
four-round special event. Herbert is fast and clever and
carries a wicked wallop in either hand. Mister Clark
will have to have a real defense if he weathers the
storm throughout the four rounds.
Joe Shirk, old-time trainer and handler of boxers, will
be the third man in the ring.
The bouts are being staged in the name of charity
to make Christmas a little brighter for the poor, unfor
tunate youngsters of tfie city on Christmas morning.
It's a good card, hetter, in fact, than the last one, which
Klamath fans admitted was a wow. ..So do the young
sters a good turn, and go out to the fights tonight. You
can't possibly lose.
