r crossing to be one of the bes
musical organizations in the state
The band has hardly been in existenc

tious committee, which is in charge
OF arrangements for the big meeting

The excellent showing the Malta
band has made is greatly due to the
efficient instructor Prof. 7. M. Facey,
OF Glasgow, who is one of the most
painstaking teachers that has ever
come to Northern Montana, and the
people of Malta are lucky to have in
their midst so capablea musician.

VIM. Kelly, w. G. Stevens and
Dwight Jones.
The members of the band are
greatly indebted to Mr. L. G. Edwards,
who has given them the use of his
store building. formerly occupied by

CLEVELAND BOY NOT WORRIED
BY SHORT ROUTE
Predicts He VIII Duplicate His Recent
Decisive Victory Over Chicago
Lad-latter Equally
as Confident

Frank Carsey and Phil Brock prac-
tically have finished their work in
preparation for their ten-round con-
test at.AcCarey's pavilion Friday even
ing, which will decide which of the two
viii meet Freddie Welsh the night of
September Is at the pavilion. Brock is
the most confident of the pair, as he
declared after his work yesterday that
there is no chance for him to lose to
Carsey. Brock his trained faithfully,
and when he enters the ring he will
have all of his old-time confidence,
which was lackingein his last fights in
this city.
Carsey, when approached on the sub
ject, also said that he expects to climb
up over the Cleveland boy in spite of
the fact that Brock administered a
knockout at their last meeting. Carsey
figures that he had the better of Brock
up to the twelfth round at Jeffries' and
that he will be able to duplicate that
performance when the two hook up
again.
Carsey hit the road at Vernon yester-
day morning, and at 3 o'clock in the
afternoon he started his work at the
camp of the South Side Athletic cluD
and exercised for an hour without a
letup. He boxed six rounds with Char
lie Anslinger and showed up fast dur
ing the bout.
Brock did his customary highway run
in the morning and performed on all of
the apparatus at the Venice amphithe-
ater in the afternoon. He put on the
gloves with Charlie Lucca and did not
spare his sparring partner in the least
during the entire six rounds. Brock s
work seemed to please the goodly num-
ber of spectators present, as he was
frequently applauded during the ses-
sion.
Frank Picato will be unable to go on
with Charlie Anslinger in the six-round
bout scheduled for the two, and Man.
ager McCarey has substituted Joe Will
liams in his place. Picato took a Sc
we're cold just after he began training
and was unable to work 1t off, so the
doctor demanded that he cease working
and take a rest for a month. Williams
is a slugger from the navy, and he will
make Anslinger go some when they
meet.
The card as completed is as follows:
Joe Rogers VS.. Willie Mack, six
rounds.
Willie Fairbanks VS.. Norman Stone,
six rounds.
Joe Williams VS.. Charlie Anslinger,
six rounds
Frank Carsey VS.. Phil Brock, ten
rounds.
