A couple of big Ik .'S with good reputations will head-line the next boxing card which has been ad vanced to a woek from tomorrow tight, December 17th, aecivdlng ti announcement today by Johnnie 'Sylvester, matchmaker. Willie Keel er. who holds the heavyweight cham pionship of the Inter-mountain stales and Jack McGreer, a slashing glove thrower from Texas,' will be the two big attractions. They'll go 10 roauds or less. Karl Ritchie, vho was ; have been given a top position on the next card, sa.ts he won't fljjlit. That ntalees it unanimous as fat as Klum. ! ath fans are cuncci-nctl. The sport-; injj public hereauout.s has been more than kind to Ritchie. They have ! seen him put us some c.od fights, ; and they have seen hint fall by the i wayside like a rank lias-boon. Rut I each time he has put up a .poor bat-, tie, the fans, or a lot of them, have' t'oigiten him, and have paltl overi their cash to see liim in action again. Ritchie, so Sylvester says, ItatK -igncd a contract to fight on the next card Re had teen offered a bigger parse than bis opponent, who boastc-d a. better cast-wide reputa tion. In otber words, the local pro moters were willing to :-amper the bbr boy in an effort to make a drawing card out of him. And then, after the card had all been arrang ed for next Tuesday night, Ritchie, lying In bed and pnffing a cigarette, calmly notified Sylvester that he WO'.lI-III"! fight. So Sylvester had to spend a lotta i dc-ri-me to find a couple of big ' boys to take the headline job. aud ; then had to delay the bout a couple! of days in order to give t'ne boxers a chance to get here and acclimate : themselves to the high altitude. I Keeler wired ' that he is leaving i his home af Kellpg, Idaho, today and ought to get here Friday, with B short stop-ovor in Portland, 'where tho promoters want to sign hint up with Tiny Herman tor the latter part of the month. He'll be lore and ready foj training by S.uur.lay morning, giving him nearly a week tu gel used to this altitude. .Mctireer, who arrived recently from Tosiu, has been working out In Portland where the sporting writ ers are .giving him si good send-off. He'll leave Portland today and get here tomorrow, rarin' for action. It is more than poaatble that Wilbur Harrington will have recov ered from injuries by next Thurs day and nill be able to show bis famous book to the fans. Re will undergo a physical examination to day when the medico will give bis decision, if the flashy little Indian lightweight is given the official o. K. Sylvester .will get some good boy for him. Harrington Is proving him- s"lf a stron-; drawing Card in those parts and will soon be ready to step out in faster company. Sid Herbert says he's all ready for his re-entry Into the ring. His wind, is perfect and his timing of blows has come back to him, so ho wants nothing better than a chance Jo mingle for (oar rounds or more with Jack Crini. tio Modoc Indian boy with the famous smile. Thls'l! be a battlo tao boys ought to re member. Iast but not least, the fans will get a taste of pile driving blows when "One It'iund" Hogau and Jim Fleming square away, for 4 round-.. Hogan bong the K. o. on Fleming in the first round in their last go, and Fleming didn't know what it was all about for nearly an hour afterwards. Rut Jim says it was u fluke and wants another crack at .Malm's white hope. There'll be plenty of hefty slugging when these big boys get into action. Arranging a bj.xing card and keeping all the boys lined up, !s a lough Jab far any matclinntkor. au.l there ure always a few disappoint meOU. Hut Sylvesler forgot ex pense: when Ritchie teak the run out powder aud lined up a card he figured would give the cash custom ers a ran far their money.
