ISPORTS--LOCAL, STATE, NATIONAL] LAMARQUE MEETS TOOTS MONDT DOUBLE BOXING BILL ANNOUNCED Kid Bruce of Trinidad to Battle St. Clair on Colored Ath- letic Card A straight boxing card in which 30 rounds of fighting have been séched- uled will be the offering at Jazzland Friday night. There are two- 10- round events which are vieing for honors as topliners. Kid Bruce of Trindad, Colo., will at- tempt to battle Eddie St? Clair, other- wise known as California Joe Gans, for 10 rounds, In numerous fights which Gans has had here there has only been one man that was there at the finish of the tenth round. This honor went to Oklahoma Kid Lee who fought to one of the prettiest draws ver seen on a bill at Jazz land. Young McVey of Denver and Young ‘Wills of Garden City, Kans., will also fight 10 rounds. Neither of these boys have met before and in former appearances here have won their matches easily. @ four and a six-round preliminary will round out the boxing card. ‘The principals in the opening events have not been named yet but the managers of the fight card claim these events ‘will be red hot. Thyra Morrison and her Jazz hounds will resumo their en- tertainment res at this mill. Choice Parking Stalls Reserved For Loyal Fans In order that those Casper baseball fans who have so liberally contributed to the baseball appreciation fund Which is being raised here for the Midwest baseball club, will have first consideration in making reservation for automobile parking stalls at the baseball grounds, Roy Wyland, treas- urer of the fund, has taken charge of a large number of the choice parking places. By seeing Mr. Wyland at the Wyoming National bank proper reservations can be made. A charge of $10 1s made for a parking space for the entire season. With 140 games and at least half of that number to be played in Casper it fs easy ‘to note the economy of getting a season reservation before the season opens. oak A ae aaa Continental to Open On May 20| ————— BOSTON, April 21—The Conti- nental Baseball league will swing into action on May 20, with clubs in eight cities, President Andy Lawson an- nounced here today.

After Taylor accomplishes or fails this attempt, he will try to beat Tero Miyaka, jiu-jitsu champion, at the oriental art of self-defense. ‘Taylor's defeat at the hands of Miyaka three weeks ago has ran- kled the local git aud he har un- dertaken a strenuous campaign of training with Clarence Bklund, light heavyweight champion at Peck- ville, and it is also said that a Den- | ver jiu-jitsu expert is visiting at | Taylor's ranch, teaching the local man some of the finer points of the | Japanese game. The preliminary bt] for the Mon- | day night uthletic card is said to be one of the best scheduled here in a jong time. For scientific fight- ing George McLeod arranged the match between Dude Gilmore and Kid Hansen. Neither of these boys have met before but in other fights both have proven themselves to be scrappy actors, Will Lee Parker be able to stay away from the terrific punches which John Pelkey is able to pro- duce? Therein may stand the re- sult of the fight between these two men, ‘This will be the second time that Pelkey has ever been in the fight arena, but his former appearance proved that he was a wildcat with the padded mitts. Parker was un- able to stand punches administered by Charles Doyle when he appeared here on the last fight card and lost by a knockout. Parker, however, is a hard puncher and is considered much cleverer than his Monday night opponent. Parker will have to bring all his cleverness into play to withstand the first few rounds of his match with Pelkey and then use his pow- erful punches if he expects to win this fight. From point of general interest this match vies with any of the main events. Games'Today National League. Boston at Brooklyn. Philadelphia at New. York. Cincinnati at Pittsburgh. Ghicago at.

Having fought hbnself clean of op- ponents in the lightweight class, tho champion would like to annex the welter and middleweight crowns, Since the days of Bob Fitzsimmons, two and three way champions have been unknown models, but Leonard thinks he can do it, Then as the king of three divisions, he would retire, the greatest of all medern fichters. Leonard ia. not alone ir thinking that the welterweight championship is his if he ever qzts a chance at it, at least in a year or so, Jack , Britton, the greatest of pres- ent-day boxers, is the king over a class that is sadly shy of strong competition, Jack is the oldest ring- man in the game and although he per- sistently makes that adage about |“youth being served” look foolish, he can't hang on forever, pat when it comes to the middle- weight class, Leonard may. have some | elastic confidence merely on a weight proposition, Benny works ona sliding weight scale, a welterweight normally, a lightweight when he has to be. He has shown, whenever called upon the past winter, that he can make 135 pounds, but he is not too strong at that weight. “T would have been willing to meet Mike O'Dowd when he was champion because he was made for a good. box- er,” Leonard says. “Johnny Wilson, with his southpaw style, would be Just as easy. I’m sure I could at least outpoint him in a decision bout.” ‘Outside of Rocky Kansas, Leonard ef | hasn!t-an' opponent worth considera- tion in the lightweight class.
