Both are contenders for the liiit heavyweight crown which now adorns the Loughnuu brad of ( Tommy i 1 the west and particularly with the f:ghting prospects. "I suah like It out heah." be admitted, "and would like to stay." White la solidly built; his shoulders are wide and sloping; his face Is black aa the ace of spsdea and he looks as fast aa a streak. Ha confided that he expected a tough battle with Gene O' Grady tomorrow night and that he waa going to try for an early knockout, lie's not worrying about the altitude and pronounc ed himself in ideal condition for the bout. Thla air smells all right to me the negro said, "and an don't think theah will be any trouble with mah breathing. According to plana, he will work out at 8:30 p. m. with Ray Huffman, bard bitting wel terweight who fought a main event on the last fight. A largu crowd of cash customers is ex pected to be on bsnd to see the colored boy show bis fistic wares. Although White hss met the better fighters and, presumably, is a better boxer than O Grady, he will go Into the ring with several decided disadvantages. O Grady will not only have about an eight pound weight advant age but will also have reach. Also the altitude might slow np the chunky middleweight unless he stows awsy Gene in the early rounds. As a matter of fact the dusky battler is going right out for a kayo as be Is anxious to work np a ring "rep" la Klam ath. White fought the rejuvenated Walter Cleghora twice, once In Portland and tha aecond time In Tacoma. Both bouts were draws. Cleghora la one of the best fighters ever seen In a Klamath ring, bnt since he left this country where, be publicly ad mitted, he drank too much moonshine he haa gons on the water wagon and has shown si Immense improvement, Portland sport critics said the Eskimo was one hundred per cent better. They ssy White should bsve bad the decision In the Tacoma battle. Jack Nash of Portland and Frankls Monroe of Chiloquln will meet In the seml-wlndup. They are lightweights. Johnny Snell of Portland and Cyclone Randall of Malia will meet in the special event. They weigh around 188 pounds. Jim Robinson of Chiloquln and In dian Luke Chester, who says he's still an amateur, will throw gloves at each other In the sec ond ' four round preliminary while Indian Bud Jerry will cross gloves with Al Btraub. 1 - - i .-.v. . ,.---.wuj.il'wuucifev. j Aww,.re , r.
