WITH S.A.A.C. FIGHTERS

Cyclone" Prague, the 115-pound
newsboy champ, has been matched
with Kid Mccoy for one of the pre-.
liminaries of the Portland-Spokane
smoker on December 10. Prague
has had considerable experience
and the bout promises to be a hair
raiser.
Prague has had several fights,
losing a decision to Heinfe Ritter,
the Pacific coast 105 and 115 pound
champ. His workouts in the train
ing camps of Louie Long and Kid
Scaler taught him much about the
game.
Mccoy is improving by leaps and
bounds, and Creel is confident that
in the youngster he has an en-
bryonic Pacific coast champion.
The Kid is a willing worker and
already shows wonderful improve
ment from the few lessons Creel
has given him.

No matter what the local auto
sales will be during the coming
season. one thing is assured-few
dealers will be caught in midseason
with no cars and no prospects of
securing any to meet the demand.
Last year the west suffered great

manufacturers to turn the cars out
Of the factory fast enough, or be-
cause the cars that were marketed
were consigned to the eastern
trade.
This year Spokane auto dealers
are more likely to be swamped
with cars than to complain of a
shortage. In anticipation of the
best season in local history, auto
men have placed large orders with
the factories, and already the cars
are beginning to arrive in this city.

a great year for the auto in Spo-
kane. The auto is coming into it's
