GOSSIP OF THE
LOCAL BOXERS

Definite arrangements have been
made for George Ingle to box an
eight-round preliminary to the Nc
Carthy-Caples bout on May 4
1t will be Ingle's first appearance
in Honolulu. He has boxed in EIilo
and Waikiki but never here. 1t will
be remembered that he obtained two
ten-round decisions over Ben de-
Mello.
Early in June Ingle will be matched
to meet Denny Leary, the soldier
champion, now with the engineers at
Fort de Russy. Leary has fine ring
record and should command a large
following among the men of the serv-
ice.
He would have been matched with
Caples for the May date, but thought
that there was hardly sufficient time
for him to get acclimated.
Kid Cassel of Fort Shafter has is
sued a challenge to Young Cans.
Conductor Williams wishes to get
return match with Kradalac, a sol
der boxer, with whom he boxed a
draw some time ago.

time and that he will keep in shape
with a view to obtaining a match

SAN FRANCISCO, March % To
criticise Abe Attell harshly at this
stage of the game savors largely Of
throwing water on a drowned rat.
Attell. through his indiscretions is in
bad standing in the three biggest
boxing centres in the United States,
namely New York, San Francisco and
Los Angeles.
His defeats by Johnny Kilbane and
Tommy Murphy have lowered him
terribly in the pugilistic scale, and
instead of pulling out of the game
in a blaze Of glory he is leaving be-
hind a reputation for crookedness.
Seldom is it that a ring champion
withdraws from active service under
such lamentable conditions.
Aside from all questions Of impair.
ed fighting ability, there is some
thing that has contributed to Attell's
downfall more than the ravages OF
time. 1t is his deprecated love OF
gambling. his nearest ITlenuS now
declare that for years past he has
lacked the will power to desert the
poker table long enough to train pro
perly.
1t is learned on the best authorit!
that Attelrs training for Kilbane a
Los Angeles was a farce. He die
enough in daylight hours to hood
wink the newspaper men who put il
