into the ring with the two men.
The men engaged in the different
bouts have done quite a lot Of training,
and as they include the best boxers in
Honolulu, the exhibition should be well
worth seeing
Jack Mansfield, who is TO box with
Smith, is a big 'longshoreman with a
record of several battles to his credit
He is said to be a good man, and one
who can stand the "gaff." Denver
Ed should prove a pretty good trial
horse for him.
lack Andrews is a husky local ex-
pressman, and his opponent, Jack Co
misky. Is the artilleryman who played
center rush for the Camp Mckinney
football team last season with so much
success.
IrIvsses Harris. the coIored boy who
f. 10 box kid" Atkins. has not been
inside the ropes since Jack McDonald
trimmed his wings at Hilo year ago.
He has taken care of himself since
then and is anxious to redeem himself
In the eyes of the local sporting ira
ternity. Harris has pretty way OF

or he is cut out for the game or not.

obtained one or two very good decisions

aggressive fellow and withal marc

In anticipation of their meeting AS

Green for his sparring partner an,
ITIvsses Harris has been working WIZ
Fox. Both men are in fine condition
the result Of plenty of judiciohs ROAD
work and careful living
Fox is undoubtedly the cieEerest ooA

contest. Agnew can take an awiul 10
