Welterweight ‘Crown at Stake in Six-Round Go at Arena Tonight Davis Risking Title in Bout That —praen as Aeuilliad Great Fistic Treat; First Six- Round Main Event for Seattle Fans Tonight; Both Battlers Have Great Left Hands; Five Other Tilts Are Scheduled — BY LEO H. LASSEN IKE last Tuesday when Bobby Harper and Travie Davis squared off for their four-round bout at the Arena, that turned out to be the greatest battle in years here, Jimmy Duffy and Travie Davis enter the ring at the is to flip a coin. Tonight’s bout should be another thriller with Duffy's wonderful left hand and footwork matched against Davis and his all-around fighting ability. It will mark the innovation of the six-round main event in Seattle. Davis is probably in better fighting trim than Duffy, because he has been boxing regularly while Duffy hasn't battled since he returned from the East. Davis was in wonderful condition for his bout with Harper last week. Davis will have a slight advantage in weight, scaling about 145 pounds, while Duffy 7 ——~ will weight a few pounds : Washington Eight Easy *: inner Over Wisconsin Nehtweight, will tangle with Bert | Peorbes in the semi-windup.
