THe best contest as the women's singles advances to the semi-final round is the meeting of Miss Eleanor Goss, New York, and the Pacific coast junior chiampio Miss Helen Wills of Rerkeley, Calif.

H obstacle between himself and a crack at the championship, to wit, one Jeff Smith of Bayonne, N.'J., Mike Downey and Johnny Wilson, one of claims it. Of course, Wilson and Do ring before either of them meets Gi nothing to do but wait. Mike has a very clever plan of cam-, paign laid ont. He is not going to gun for the winner of the proposed Wilson- | Downey battle. Not a bit of it. He can | have more fun—and incidentally make more money—by taking on the loser of the title bout between Downey and Wil- son, which Tex Rickard expects to hold |- in the near future.

Mike Gibbons is in prime condition | just how and never has he had at his command so many inimitable tricks | of the trade. Tuesday night at the Armory A. A. in Jersey City it was a real joy to watch him roll up points on Jeff Smith. Smith never saw the air so full of gloves in his life. They came from everywhere and there was no getting away from them. The fans just sat back and smiled with the artistio satisfaction that one sees in the faceg of operagoers when a pop- ular opera is being sung by gifted stars. Jersey Jeff got a. real boxing lesson last night. And the interesting point was Mike's demonstration that he could take it He caught a wallop in the jaw in the second round that put him to the floor with a solid thump. But he arose with a smile, not waiting for the roferee's count, and plastered Smith with a whirlwind of blows. Gibbons stands before the public today an exponent of all that is best and ‘most scientific in the sport of fistiouffs. E: Fans and Weather Agin It.
