"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.
