WELEYS SKTGoRNER

Harrisburg fight fans have seen a
ten-round bout. They were also given
an eight-round exhibition at last
nights show. When the big program
was over many of the spectators were
of the opinion that they would rather
see six rounds of fast fighting than
ten rounds with frequent clinching and
holding tactics in order that the battle
would go the limit Those who know
the fight game claim that last nights
prolonged bouts were an exception as
TO real fighting. They will get an
other chance to see long battle on
May s.
Everything comes to him who waits.
Manager Patsy Donovan, of the Buff
falo international League club, en-
toyed the first real sunny day since he
arrived in Harrisburg with his Bison
squad. The Island Park grounds this
morning, while a little soft in places,
were in good shape for battle this
afternoon. The game with Susque-
hanna University promised much in
terest.
The selection of Eddie Harris to lead
the Tech High football eleven next
season brought much favorable com
ment. Harris has been in the game
and on a number of occasions showed
good head work. AS a leader he has
proven his ability, in the opinion of all
who have watched his work on the
gridiron and bask etball floor.

FIGHTERS GIVE
FANS GREAT SHOW
Windup Is Bloody Battle; Nc
Guire Gets Public Decision;
Other Good Bouts

Local fight fans were given thirty
five rounds of the fastest kind of fight
ing last night at Chestnut Street Au-
dtuorium. 1t was the first of a series
of boxing shows under the auspices
of the West End Republican Club.
There were 1000 spectators present,
including thirty-five women. Every
body was more than pleased.
New features on last nights bill
were a 10-round and an S-round mix
up. Both exhibitions furnished plenty
excitement, but at the conclusion
opinions were divided as to the ad-
vantages of bouts going over six
rounds when no title is at stake. One
thing strongly objected TO last night
was the frequent calls from spectators
to the men in the ring. Only once
was an effort made to stop this rowdy
feature, when frankie Erne, the for
mer Harrisburg boxer, called an Off
Ger and asked him to quiet several
noisy fans.
Windup Hard Battle
The windup between frankie Nc
Guire, of Williamsport, and Joe Hunt
ing, of Philadelphia was one of the
/ burg. Mcguire outpointed his op-
ponent, but the later was game and
took hard punishment. He gave Nc
Guire some stiff punches. The bull
dog tenacity shown by Hunting pleased
the crowd Several times he looked
like a goner, but came back strong.
In the semi-final eight-round bout
between Battling Morgan and Texas
Kid, of Philadelphia, who was sub
stituted in the place of Mickey Brown,
who it was announced from the ring
| had cold feet" the Texas Kid proved
to be one of the toughest opponents

was greatly menaced by the persistent
clinching of both fighters. Morgan
showed he knew the fighting game,
but he was disappointment to many
last night.

! There seems to be an impress

city is one continual round of en-
tertainment and pleasure. All
such so-called pleasure is expen-
sive and all Of it becomes quickly
tiresome. There is the saloon, the
low-class moving picture show and
the dive, as. forms of entertain
ment not found in majority of
small towns. But in the city men
who cannot afford better things
have a tendency to drift to these
places and get acquainted with
people and habits that wreck
character. City entertainment is

And the young woman who

much harder for her to get along

for wonlen in the industries are
very low and jobs are scarce.
Decent living conditions are be-
yond her reach unless shet gets
good pay. Pitfalls for the un-
wary or unfortunate young wo-

Even if the girl must work as
