BAUERSOCKS TO
BOX WOODWARD

The Schofield Barracks sportsmen
are planning to bring off another of
their enjoyable boxing exhibitions at
Leilehua on April IS.

Shafter and Trooper Bauersocks, the
Fifth Cavalry favorite.
Woodward is well known as a fine
boxer and Bauersocks has made many
friends by his good work in the local
ring. The contest between them
should be well worth witnessing.
There will be four-round curtain
raiser and a siX-round semi-inal.
Moriarity will appear in the latter
bout, his opponent not yet having
been named. Moriarity in a recent
bout at the post knocked out Mullen
