Two PeculIarities in the Training OF
Ieffrles and COfbett'
THE LOCAL SITUATION
Good Bout Talked OF Between car
ence English aud Jack Ciihor"-
Arranging flights Elsewhere.

Local fight fans were pleased by the
announcement made d few days ago
that Clarence English, the young man
whom Herrera was apparently AFRAID
to take a chance with, and Jack chr
ford, were matched for bout TO take
place IN this city on the evening OF Aug
4. They have never had the opportun-
ity to see the clever little English per-
form here but his record is 50 well
known, and his work in the ring has
been so clean, that they feel they could
afford to take a chance to see him hght
without being Thrown down and
they are In hopes that the proposed
match will not fall through.
Clifford Is well known here ana mas
made many friends in local pugdom by
his clean work in the ring. Roy Condle
was the first man clifford was matched
against in this city and he took care or
Roy In apple pie order. His next bout
was one OF importance. lie was pitted
against Jack Wade, the then light
weight champion Of Montana, ana
tOuted by scores Of ring Followers as
the coming champion. The whipping he
gave Wade win long be remembered.
Later he defeated the ex-champion in
four rounds, after which he wadei
through a number OF lightTelghts m
Montana. Then came his tight with
Toby Irwin in which the decision went
against him and later he was knocked
out by Herrera.
Clifford and English are well
matched, and from a pugillstic stand
point should draw big house II the go
is properly handled and no doubt It VIII
be, as Prof. Robinson, manager for
English, says he VIII have charge Of
the same. Judging from the past rec
ords Of the persons interested, there Is
no reason 10 fear thar the bout would
not be absolutely on the square, and "
il Is pulled off successfully II Will do
much 20 make up for the recent fascos.
clifford is expected to arrive here
tomorrow.
