Dun- bar's last two victories were via the K. ©. route, it being a matter of ring history that he slipped the sleeping potion to Joe Rogets in thé second round, while “Kid” Craig, the cham pion of Montana, succumbed to the rough treatment of the shifty young glove slinger in the second inning of their short-lived melee, Cummings is faithfully living up to his daily program of rigid training and promises to give the fans, as well as his young opponent, a real run for the money. Danny has a loyal follow- ing among local fans who are anxious to see him in action against a fighter of Dunbar’s class. The bout between “Kid". Ross and Ray Talbert is expected to be a real mixup, as Ross is known to be a fight- er of the touch and go style, while Talbert is a very restless and nérvous guy in the ring and secrets a mean ‘wallop in each glove. ‘Tony” Wroblewske, who goes to the mat with Gus Fri in a 30-minute or one-fall match. is not altogether unknown to the fans here, as those ‘who attended the Midwest smoker some time ago will remember him as the young husky who was matched with Taylor for a 20-minute exhibition on that occasion.
