(By Mail.)— Britain will open, the fistic year of 1920-21 on September 17, with a fight for the bantam-weight title be- tween Champion Pete I-fermnn and Jimmy Wilde, who hopes to gather in the world’s bantam-weight hon- ors along with the fiyweight title he now holds. There is a good deal of hope here that Wilde can do what England’s survey only a portion of the state, and there are no doubt thousands of bushes which have not been located, but which go on spreading rust just the same.

Everyone realizes that Wilde is stepping rather far outside his class when the meets the world's champion of the next heavier set. Also there's a lot of comment that he's as good as he ever will be, and has no where to go but backward. But Wilde has always produced the goods over here, and he will have a lot of backing when he and Herman hook up. ‘Though not for championship hon- ors, the second fight of the season— between Joe Beckett, the British champion heavy, and the always-re- liable Frank Moran—will attract greater interest over here.

Pioneer Office An interesting program has been planned and will include a number of talks which are sure to prove of espe- cial interest to every member of the man who likes to stand up and ex- ~hange wallops. _And in his fights with Dick Smith, the former cruiser- weight champion, Bombadier Billy Wells, the hardy annual or British heavyweights and Tommy Burns, he has walloped to good effect. Moran, however. is a good teal tougher than any of these. He is always danger- ous, has plenty of courage and al- ways shows well against a ‘boxer of Beckett's type. A win means a good deal for Beckett—another match with Carpentier and possibly a hope that some day he’ll meet Dempsey, though most of the boxing critics take to produce vaudeville in America was Silas W. Steggs of San Francisco, who inherited $400,000 from his uncle 1n 1865, and not being used to handling money in large quantities, started in to spend it freely. He went on a trip to Europe and spent most of his time at the Alhambra music hall in London, and launched a project to start the “New York Alhambra.” His idea was approved by a number of amusement people, and he hired hundreds of them to come to the United States. But his money ran out and he left his party WALTER GILBERT European Novelty Grand VAUDEVILLE! { (TS TONIGHT ONLY BECAUSE OF CHANGES IN CIRCUIT, THE 4 ACTS OF VAUDEVILLE WILL BE SHOWN IN BEMIDJI EVERY FRIDAY INSTEAD OF EVERY SATURDAY THIS WEEK --- FRIDAY PEGGY HYLAND in “The Merry Go Round” A ACTS Prices 25¢ and 50¢ SAXON & ASHNER in “The Telephone Girl” RITTLE BROS.
