FAVOR SMITH TO
 DEFEAT WILLARD
Experts Think Gunboat's Hitting Power Gives Him Ad-
 vantage

The Gunboat Snaith-Jess Willard match scheduled to be decided at San Francisco next week is the next big f1stic attraction. For some reason Cal ifornians are not warming up to this affair in a way that the bout seems to call for. On the far coast they have yet. to become accustomed to looking upon Smith in the light of a, conain g champion, while Willard is entirely unknown.
 But in New York, where the men are better known, considerable signifi- canoe is attached to this event. Now that McCarty has proved to be a dis appointment, the winner of the bout on May 1T will oust McCarty from the position of leading candidate for titu- lar honorS.
 Since Gunboat's terrible hitting made such a marked impression little has been heard of the theory that he is too light to cope with the heavier rivals. Yet in this case he will be meeting the biggest man who ever attained prominence in the roped arena. Often superior height and weight advan- tages are neutraIized by an accom- panying slowness of mov ement and lack of skill. But Willard has plenty of speed and is 3, far better boxer than the energetic Smith. Altogether the later has assumed a task that will call for some heroic glove swinging to bring it to 9, satisfactory conclusion.
 Just before leaving for the far coast. in discussing his prospects. Smith said:
 aOut in California the rules permit hitting on the breaks, and that is where I shine. Willard may be able to outbox me- but I'll get to him in the clfnches and on the breaks. Once land one on the right spot he'll go just as quickly As the others hit.''
 However, Willard seems to have a pretty fair idea of how to protect himself in the clinches. In his bout with Soldier Kearns he handled the Brooklyn strong man in the clinches as an ordinary man would handle a child. His long arms encircled the rugged Kearns and held him as help less as if he were locked in the folds of a boa constructor.
 While there Is little betting -on the bout as yet, there is Q tendency to make Smith a slight favorite.

Noted Irish Tenor
 In Sacred Concert
 Here Sunday May Ia

Through the activity z of the Holy Name society of St. Patrick's parish, music lovers of Bridgeport and vicin- ity will have an opportunity to hear, at the Park theatre, Sunday evening, May Is, the famous Irish tenor, Thos. Egan, with an assisting company of grand opera, artists.
 The local engagement of MT. Egan is one of the very first he has ac- cepted in America. He arrived in this country but a few weeks ago. He has sung in Boston and New York city, and will sing in Hartford within few days, but his Bridgeport engagement is still numbered among the first half dozen of his American concerts.
 MT Egans home is in Dublin. His debut in grand opera was quite un- expected, for he had returned from two years of study in the conservation ies of the continent when the leading tenor of the Royal Italian Opera com pany playing in Drury Lane, London. was suddenly taken i'll. MT. Egan was drafted and his fulfilment of the leading tenor roles was a. series of triurnphs.
 Owing to the limited capacity of the Park theatre, the members of the Holy Name society have arranged to se- cure tickets that may be exchanged for reserved seats when the box office sale opens The members are now selling tickets.

 manager wanting the coin, so there was nothing doing. Later Cyclone Johnny Thompson went to Brisbane. on Jan. II, 1911, and met Jerome, putting him away in three rounda.' Probably Jerry prohted by his exper- fences with the Yankees, for he has surely been going some guns of late in Australia, even though he is 90 years of age. and Is now matched Go fight Dave Smith for the chamudou- ship of the Antipodes.

The McMahon boys have my signature for the proposed bout and they inform me that should Nolan accept my proposition, they will stage the bout on June 18th at the St. Nichols A c.
