JUNE ATTRACTION
Is NOT SELECTED

Which shall it be?
The question is proving to be a
puzzler to Eddie Quinn, match
maker for the Spokane Amateur
Athletic club. He has had letters
from so many good men, large and
small, that he finds it difficult to
select the June fight card for the
club.
Eddie thus far has built I'D the
game here until Spokane is recog-
nized all over the country as one
place where the game IS thorough

club have gained for the city an
enviable reputation among profess
sional pugilists. There is none of

fights, exhibited here curing the

count Of the terrible disaster which
yesterday befell the Indians at Ia

watched the bulletin boards here

was unfolded, inning at time, and
each time a cipher goose egg, to
be more explicitly, was hung up, it
was altogether too heal trending a

Nine of them in succession--it
was horrible, terrible, awful. 1t
