Tex Feela Eay
Over Fight Card
For Friday Night
. Tex Blckerstaff is resting easy
today following the arrival of
Kay Pelkey, who Is scheduled
to box Willie Feldman at the
Legion Pavilion Friday evening.
If Jo has one little worry it
la because Willie .might get
snowbound on the hill between
Klamath Falls and Ashlsnd, but
the matchmaker isn't crossing
ny bridges aa yet.
Another reason for Joe's
placid state of mind is thst all
the other boys to appear tomor
row night are in town and
ready to don the mitts when
the time comes. Heretofore,
some ot the bouts hava not rest
ed so easily on the showman's
hands and mind, because boiers
hava a queer notion about run
ning out on the management the
last thing and this haa happened
to Tex more than once. This
time, however, the card Is In
hand and one of the biggest
.crowds aver assembled la the
Legion Pavilion Is looked for. .
. Pelkey Looks Good
Pelkey has recovered from the
111 effects ot a badly cut eye
ad looks to be in the "pink".
Ha took Red Uhlan to the clean
ers two weeks ago and this morn
ing expressed confidence in his
ability to defend himself against
Willis Feldman. While north,
.ho Is scheduled to meet Gene
O'Orsdy again, the Ashland
farmer boy wishing to retrieve
the kayo sustained at Portland
la a former meeting with the
Oakland pug. Gene's friends
tsel that the knockout was an
accident and are confident that
their favorite will give Pelkey
the fight ot his life when they
'meet again.
