KETCHELL REALLY
CLASSY FIGHTER
Clean-Cut Victory Makes
Him Stand Out Like
Cans.

Next week New Workers viii get their
hrst look at the man who seems TO
have more real, substantial merit than
nlne-tenths Of all the so-caIled hstlc
champions put together. Stanley Ketcn-
ell will get there Monday, and will
probably appear in a six-round bout be-
fore he goes back to the Pacific shores.
The way the decision in the Papke-
Ketcheu night Thursday night was
taken by the Milwaukee sports shows,
in the opinion of Rube Goldberg, in the
New York Evening Mail, that Ketsl-
ellis victory was complete. Not one
single protest was raised against the
decision, although Papke made a very
creditable showing. Ketcheu stands out
among the fighters Of the present day,
excluding Cans, like a gatling gun in
the midst OF a bunch of noisy medieval
war junk Every one of his victories
has been characterized by the same
business-ike methods.
Not Relying Upon Talk.
II any other middleweight had ami
hilated the two Sullivan twins as
KetcheI did. his press agents voice
would have reached as far as St. Pc
tersburg. The savages in the African
jungles would have known that Kid So
and-SO had arrived from the Badlands
OF Fistiana to clean up the earth.
But not so with Ketchen. He is too
big man, from the commonsense
point Of view. to expect advancement
from cheap nOtoriety. lie simply gees
and does things, and is willing to let
the sporting world take him for what
he is worth. He IS one of the very
few fighters who have the right idea.
Many other fellows In the business
have to resort to the talkative methods
because their line Of goods viii cot
stand too close an inspection. Ketchell
has the stuff, and is willing 10 deliver
it in plain package.
Gilmore Beats Nolan to It.
Billy Nolan is now In Chicago trying
10 arrange for a bout between Paclzey
Mcfarland and the winner of the Cans
Nelson fight on July 4. It is doubtful II
Nolan viii be successful in getting the
Chicago boys signature, because Packey
is noc vet prepared to meet Cans. The
negro figures to win over Nelson on
Independence Day.
Nolan carried a scheme in his mind 8
eve TO secure the management OF Nc
Farland and handle him as he did Bar
Ting Nelson. But since Nolan's MIDI o
West campaign was started Packey
kissed and made up with his old man
ager. Harry Gilmore. This puts Nolan's
chances for a new meal ticket in the dim
distance. However, the shrewd Bilious
can win out when his opponents think
the game is cinched. He is to be reck-
oned with in any deal Gilmore Will
have 10 go some 20 hang on TO McFar-
land while Nolan is tossing the SvengaH
optic.

WHY NOT HAVE a BAND?

Several Of the band musicians Of the
city are anxious to get the band start
ed again, believing there is every
reason why there should be a good,
well balanced street and concert band.
To make the band a success a few
more cornet and clarinet players are
needed, and the boys are of the opin-
ion that if the business men of the
city are interested in the city having
a creditable band they might be able
to provide situations for men who are
musicians along those lines. If three
or four musicians of that character
could be encouraged to locate here,
there is little or no doubt but what
the Bismarck band would be in better
shape than ever in short time. Bis
marck is becoming a convention city
of considerable Importance, and there
are numerous occasions when the
band could fill part of the program for
such events very nicely, and with a
little enthusiasm in this respect the
city can have a band.
