WITH VENGEANCE
READY FOR FINAL DAY OF RING
PREPARATION

Contests Excite Spec
ulation

With one more afternoon of gruelling
work before them, twelve husky young
sters, whom McCarey has selected to
perform in his Friday evenings carni-
val of fistcs, are practically ready for
battle.
The wonder of it all lies in the fact
that no one has been injured during the
strenuous weeks of preparation that
have been marked by q disposition to
batter the other fellow beyond all
semblance of the human. Manager
McCarey has spent much of his spare
time superintending the operations be-
bause of the fact that he wants no
breaking up of his card. Many times
since the boys started their perform
ance work Tom has been obliged to in
terferc when the hostilities grew too
fierce.
Inexperence, however, was what
called for such demonstration of anna
teur powers and the willingness mani
Tested during training days gives an in
sight as to what may be expected when
the lads come together Friday night.
Montana Kid and Johnny Thompson
are the only two boys who have not hit
a rapid pace at the pavilion. Montana
has trained i'm private, while Thompson
has done just enough sparring to keep
his arms in working order. Interest in
gree unparalleled so far as local pre-
liminary bouts have been concerned.
Although Friday nights affair was
planned along lines which would give
every attraction an even break, the
Thompson-M Montana match has caused
no end of comment because of the fact
that a local faVorite has been given
an opportunity of demonstrating just
what he can do against a man rated
among the best mixers of the middle
west Despite the fact that Montana
is well liked there was nothing but
Thompson money on tap yesterday and
hackers of the Illinois boy are unable
to place their coin.
Those who reason that Thompson
should be rated a winner are backing
their opinion upon dope, which, to say
the least, has f1avory taste Montana
without record of particular moment
is nevertheless to be reckoned with and
may spring a great surprise. He pos
sesses every requisite of the ringSter
on the surface and has thus far ex-
hibited sings of a good heart.
Montanas battle with Billy Walsh
can hardly be taken as a criterion
Montana, if he did not underrate
Walsh, evidently entered the ring un-
prepared for a gruelling go. Again
the gloves used in the contest were not
in keeping with genuine ring tactics.
In the event of either boy securing a
decisive victory it is highly probable
that they will be accorded a chance
with some very live one. AS local
favorites they would be supported
should match be secured with a repu-
tation giving glovester.
The possibility of an Angel city boxer
exhibiting championship material is
not beuyond the bounds of proba bility
and the event must come as a relief
tonic. Certain ringsters whose ability
as top-notcherS is not altogether agreed
upon by all interested, are at the pres
ent time blowing around the east as to
what McCarey should give them in
the way of matches. Jimmy Walsh is
letting out an overflow of air as to
what he will do with frankie Neil
Just why the aforesaid Walsh does not
appear on the scene and carry his
threats into execution has not as yet
been explained.
Refreshing in the extreme would be
the sight of a local youngster climbing
into the ring with some of these worse
than gas bags, whose quibblings result
in loss of interest as regards the match
when it is finally made.
Abdul, the Turk, is expected to prove
a surprise when he salutes Indian Joe
whose gigantic body may or may not
prove a knottX problem for the swarthy
ringster whose last battle indicated
that he possesses something more than
ordinary ability.
Abdul has trained along regulation
lines and with deal more cleverness
may dispose of poor Lo in jig time
Those who claim to know, however, say
that Joe's left is bad one and that
