FAST TRY-OUT
MEN ARE READY
MONTANA AND BURNS CONFI-
DENT OF VICTORY
Dalton and AtteII Expe cted to Put Up
Battle OF Their LiVes-Meeney
Will Have Hard Time With
Torres

Everything is in readiness for to-
nights fast try-out card which has
been arranged for Maud Junction pavil-
ion. Whatever may be said of several
International affairs held at the East
end house, this evenings program
looms up as far the best.
Practically every match is scheduled
with real fighting machines as the
principals, and as a top-liner come
Jimmy Burns and Montana Kid, for
whom the outcome entails great things
as regards their future life in the ring
victory for either man means that in
all probability top nOtcher will be the
next opponent.
Charley Neary, the late victor over
Aurelio Herrera, is deluging Manager
McCarey for a match with some one,
irrespective of color or boxing ability.
Montana has figured somewhat as
Kid Solomon so far as trial horse is
concerned. The rather clever light
weight has not as yet encountered the
ten-second man, and possesses innu-
merable victories over a varied assort-
ment of ringSters He started upon his
recent upward career when matched
with Billy Walsh. Montana was given
to understand that in the event of a
victory he would be signed with Johnny
thompson. His first battle with the
Cyclone adde%much to his reputa-
ton. and there are many willing to
back him in another bout with the
Sycamore boy.
Burns-or Memsic-is no one handed
customer, and will enter the ring to
send them in from any position. Most
of Montana's opponents have been men
of one punch ability, and int crest ex-
lists as to how he will deport himself
when paired with dOuble-piston affair
During his training days Burns has
displayed considerable ability on his
feet, and the men should appear abou
evenly matched in this respect.
Both Tommy Burns and Jack Flynn,
who are to meet September 2S, will be
in the ring, Burns behind his protege,
Memsic, and FLYNN coaching Montana.
VIII two winners be returned from the
same camp?
Joe Cans had as his trainer Jack
Clifford, while Bat N elson slammed Bob
Lundie around during the preparatory
time.
Clifford figuratively paved the way
for Cans by disposin g of Lundie in two
rounds. 1t took Joe some few rounds
longer to win from Nelson. but the
ooiAAN camp NlCNtlOpcd UOlI NlCIOTS.
superstitious will be figuring along
these lines tonight.
Kid Dalton and Caesar Attell are
out for bitter go, and all grudge af-
fairs should be shadowed when the
two come together. Caesar has thus
far showed the ceVerer while Dalton
is the more powerful of the two. The
latter is capable of taking no end OF
punishment if need be and is gradually
showing more class as boxer.
Eddie Meeny and his Ethiopian
friend, Torres, will once more come tc
the front and there is small possbili ty
of a decision being rendered at the end
of six rounds. Both boys are so fast
and given to mixing that there is nc
telling when the fracas will end.
Torres appears capable of breaking
Meenys guard If that youth does not
land very early in the fray.
Tommy Leahy is to be given one
more opportunity of making good. and
he must do so or be counted out of the
tryouts, The big fellow has shown
lii tie class. his strength being the main
asset. Tonight he goes on with the
Young Turk. No one is trying to run
the inimitable Abdul in this time. and
the Young Turk is an entirely different
aSpirant
Leonard Lauder and Young Berry are
also scheduled to step six rounds
Lauder put up very game battle al
the time of his last appearance and
won after a hard struggle.
Scotty johnson and Jimmie Erwin are
two youngsters not so we'll known but
said to be capable of pacing fast
measure
