PECULIAR
CARD FOR

To Have Two Scheduled Ten
and Two Scheduled Four
Round Bouts Friday Night
NO SIX ROUND AFFAIRS
levins, Clemens, Bender,

wards and Others to Appear

Instead of the usual scheduled one

night two scheduled ten round af-
fairs and two carded for four rounds.
Matchmaker McNulty believes this
arrangement will please the patrons
of the Richmond Club and will give
his new plan a try-out at the net
show, He has iiiattSS iiia ttSSlhieeda, some classy
talent in which local and Staten is-
land tandom have much interest.
Those who were patrons OF the
Permo A. A. no doubt remember the
classy scraps which Kid Bender OF
Elizabeth, and Young Clemens
fought. These boys have been book
ed to go ten rounds. Heretofore
they have gone evenly In four round
bouts and many are anxious to learn
the outcome of marathon" bout.
Young Levins. the New Brunswick
favorite boxer, will be pitted against
Johnny Duffy, OF PHILADELPHIA,
clever NIT artist, in scheduled ten
round affair. Much Is known OF
Levins but Duffy's rep" is the only
guarantee the Richmond patrons
can be given. He claims a string
of victories.
The Fighting Sailor Is expected to
be seen In action again Friday night
and many will no doubt welcome
him. Fingy Edwards. rho fought
great battle against Bill Handerhan
last week. will in all probabilities ap-
pear in the second four round prelim-
mary.
The attendance at the Richmond
A. c. stays has become greater ev-
cry week and 1t will soon no doubt
be that the Pavilion will be taxed to
IT'S capacity. The clean manner in
which the management is conductins
the bouts is securing many friends
