shape possible in order to get a de-
cisive verdict oye the West Side
boxer.
LAS soon as 1 beat Goodman said
Powell, 81 am going to get on a train
for California. 1t won't be necessary

Powell. came to New York several
months ago, after making a general
cleanup on the coast. Charley Harvey
induced him to come East. lie started
to train, but the lightweights lodged,
and II was not until he had gone stale
that he got a match with Johnny
Mario. In this bout he showed his
class but he couldn't get going. 1t
was not until he defeated Young Otto
in Wa successive contests that the fans
here realized that he was one of the
best boys in the business.
Both Powell and Goodman are
anxious to win on account of the
matches to follow. O'Rourke will get
the best mar available. It is likely
that Ad Wolgast will meet the win
rer. The champion has been asked 70

come East as soon as his injured hand
permits.

Langdon with a right swing to tha
jaw. but the latter was UP in three
seconds n fought Moore so viciously
that he had the advantage of the
round.
