Gordon doesn’t claim to be the champ’ of anything just now. But his ambition is not limited to the | | Territory. He has fought and won from some of the best men that ‘he Pacific Coast has pro- jduced at his weight, and, since he's only 19 years old, there's time vet for him to go places in the ring.

Ancther Murphy Shows Eddie Murphy, younger brother of Miles, makes his debut in the |ger” Weaver. He'll have to be good to stay the limit with Weaver who is rated as one of the class- jest boxers ever to show his wares here. Eddie is touted highly. He has been working out with Miles brother all he wanted on more than one occasion. George Popovich, who won his spurs ‘n Seattle boxing shows, and Sammy Nelson, are on edge for their four-round go. Sammy is & slow starter and George has a chance if hell start at top speed. Sam is a willing lad, however, and if George is inclined to mix it up, the fans are due to see some real scrapping in this event. Ed. Nieison and Leonard Stokes, both local boys, perform in the curtain raiser which is slated to go the usual four rounds.
