They're getting in trim for thel smcker to be given on November 25 under the auspices of the Juneau Athletic Cub, and no mistaking this| fact. Last night, at the Rainier Club| gym, gloves filled the air as the| boys, under the watchful eyes of| Jack Wilson and Tom Shearer| paired off and went into action. | A crowd of interested spectators filled the aisles and grew tense with excilement as blows were exchang- ed. Several times it looked as though a main eventer was already in swing, although the boys were; only limbering up. Those working out last night were Archie Gibson, Jess McDaniels,| Hank Bourliet, Ben Wright, Eddie| Murphy, Ralph Hardy, Les Davis, Fred Lorz and Fred Woods. There is fine material for a smok- er right hcyve in Juneau, as the eve- ning workouts show. George ElI, who cast his eyes over the boys| nizhtly says it is a cinch that smoker life is returning to Juneau and it evident that championship ches will be seen here before| the winter is over.

But not much, and in a practical scnse he'd be doing something never done before.
