BY KAZZ BERKY The season is approaching when The athletes prepare To go to sunny southern fields And practice baseball there, BY LEO H. LASSEN he Capen Billy Wright, Seattle's leading welter, will have his big chance to’ win back the Coast crown tonight when he meets Travie Davis, titleholder, in the main event at the Crystal Pool in a six-round go. Billy has been coming at a mighty fast clip and unless Travie shows a lot more than he did in his bout with Alex ‘lrambitas here a couple of weeks ago, the local boy should win. ti Davie is a rugged miller with a hefty wallop in his right hand which has bothered more than one aspirant for his honors during the last couple of months. Wright, with his clever left hand, however, is being picked as the winner in most local fight headquarters on his recent showings. THE CAREER OF THE TITLE Wright won the Coast crown about a year ago from Johnny McCarthy at the Crystal Pool. Wright in turn lost it to Morrie Lux, the Portland welter. Lux was de- feated a few nights later by Jake Abel in Seattle and Davis copped the title from Abel in Tacoma. And now Wright has his first crack at the honors tonight. Over in Tacoma Thursday Morrie Lux and Johnny Me- ' Carthy meet, and the winner is in line for a bout with the winner of tonight’s headliner here. Whichever way it goes, a battle should be on tap. This is the second meeting of Wright and .Davis, the pair having fought a draw in Everett last fall. | Mike Pete, who stepped in the limelight when he knocked Soldier Woods for a goal a couple of weeks ago, will take on Stanley Willis, the Portland boy, in the semi-windup)| tonight. Altho his win over Woods doesn’t mark him as} a world beater, Pete is a big, strong fellow who always gives his best. WILLIS GOING GOOD This is Willis’ first bout here this season. He has been going at a good clip around Portland for the past few months and is figured to give Pete all the action he is looking for tonight.
