L p Backed up by a reputation at le 10 miles long, Charlie White, Chicago's leading leightweight, will make his Pacific coast debut tonight when he takes on Eddie Shannon, the ting harp from California, in the farewell show of the west Athletic club at the Arena. The Arena wil’! Soon be converted into an ice emporium for the coming hockey season and the Northwest ring folks will have to find a new pavilion to stage their programs. We've got a big hunch that Shannon will hand White ‘the short end of the decision tonight, reputation or no ‘Feputation. Of course White has never been in action here ‘and Shannon has boxed here once, giving Mike Pete a bear ‘Of a trouncing, and Pete outweighed him by many pounds.

This ‘is Storey’s first bout since he hurt his hand in his bout | ' with Young Ketchell at the Arena nearly a month ago. Willie Keeler, the shipyard heavy, will take on Steve Rey- “holds, the fireman pride. “That big shipyard hoosier won't lay his haymaker on ‘™e,” says Sir Reynolds. birds Keeler has fought, have done and then get knocked for a row of home runs.’ Reynolds packs a wallop himself and is fairly clever for al man of his size. This looks like one of the best bouts on the card. GLEASON TAKES ON JACKSON Irving Gleason and Eddie J attle lightweights, will mix in the fourth bout. These boys! have met before, Irving taking the decision once and the)! other bout going to a draw verdict. In the opening bout of the show Bud Fitzgerald, a ban-| » will take hi Pat Williams as his opponent.
