NOW READY
MecAREY ARRANeEs BOUTS FoF
NEXT WEEK
ROBINSON is SLATED TO MEET
DANNY WEBSTER
Dlnqe VIII Have Chance to Make
Good on Assertions Of His
Admirers-Six Bouts
Carded

One week from tonight fresh eating
money. will be handed out at the Maud
Junction pavilion to round dozen pork
and bean pugs. Half of them will be
forced to step ten rounds for their change
while the rest of the twelve are to be LET
off with six spasms. These limits. OF
course, are the ones scheduled, and it Is
not the least bit likely that more than
two of the bouts will go to the end
And unless the Pacific Athletic club
furnishes the fans with another referee
let it be hoped that they won't. The
windup Of the last try out card proved
anything but satisfactory, and change
In the third man would prove most well
come.
According to the latest arrangement
this is the way the boys will hook up:
Austin VS.. Leahy six rounds.
McGovern VS.. Martin, six rounds.
Rose VS.. Arnold. six rounds.
Webster VS.. Robinson, ten rounds
Menney VS.. Johnston, ten rounds.
Lauder VS.. Dempsey, ten rounds.
with the exception of one, Robinson,
all the lads who have agreed to appear
next week have fought in the local ring
before The newcomer, who is well
touted young dinge, if nothing else. will
be watched with interest, as he is hailed
by some as a world beater.
If Bubbles is good he will surely have
a chance to show it, for he will meet
lad who is lots better than his local repu-
tation proclaims. Danny Webster has
lacked a manager for a long time, and
with that necessary article he has missed
increasing his chances of getting the
money many times.
Danny did not really begin to fight until
a few months ago, but he broke out one
i 1.N{ ..fc cranr re 10
could mix 1t when he wanted to. Kid Dali
ton figured him as duck soup, but the way
Webster shot it into the Spaghetti kld
was something awful.
And since then Webster has been going
right ahead. He can make the bantam
weight limit any old time they want him
to, and instead of fighting untried com
ers" he should be signing up with Freddie
Weeks or Jimmy Walsh.
So if Robinson is anything much he
will be given plenty of opportunity to
display his skill. Webster is figuring him
as soft. and the 800 which is supposed to
be I'D on the result will stay in the family
bank roll if Danny has anything to say
about it.
Different for Leonard
Leonard Lauder will be up against
little different game when he meets
Dempsey than he was when Knight was
his opponent. Dempsey is a lot faster
than the Frisco boy, and thinks himself
lust as aggressive. He is figuring on
keeping Leonard on the move all the time
and is also calculating that the referee
will not render so foolish decision as he
did the last time Lauder fought.
Eddie Menney and Scotty Johnson will
meet in return engagement, and If their
coming battle is anything like the other
there should be plenty Of mixing. Last
time they met Scotty's seconds heaved In
the sponge when Menney was Furnishing
him a bit and this little move made
johnson sore He maintains that although
he was badly chopped and battered,
he was as strong as could be. and would
surely have copped Menney before the
end.
Martin Leahy, Tommy's brother. will
take a chance at Jimmy Austin, who fell
for the gaff handed him by Jimmy Royal
at a previous show. AS Leahy is making
his maiden appearance in the ring Austin
does not think he will have much work
to do while winning. and unless Leahy is
good lad he ought to be right.
Rose and Arnold will also come back for
a six-round mill. These two boys put up
a fierce mill on their last appearance. and
plenty of hard going is expected by those
who saw them In action.
Young McGovern and Guy Martin are
also carded for a siX-round stunt and will
fill in the second number on the program.
McGov. will have to step some to beat the
Pasadena lad, as the latter has improved
some since he was battered around by
ScottV Johnson
