Y0KEL MEETS TURNER
AT LYCEUM TONIGHT

Nl iarrangements for the. wrestling
bout between Joe Turner, the middle-
weight champion, and Mike Yokei. OF
Salt Lake City. Utah, were completed
yesterday afternoon. and all that re-
mains is for the men to take the mat.
Turner has been working exceedingly
hard in his training for this match as he
realizes that in Yokel he Is meeting the
only grappler in the country who has
ever had the distinction of throwing him
upon two different occasions.
The bout, IL the reports which are COM
ing rom Yokel's quarters are to be
given any weight should prove to be fast
and furious from the very start. as the
Mormon Is out to win this match at all
odds.
He realizes that unless he pins the local
man to the mat his wrestling reputation
viii be warped all out of shape.
The bout Is scheduled to start at $50
O'Clock sharp. and will be staged in the
Lyceum Theater.

Monday with Les Darcy at Madison
Square Garden. He earned the right to
meet Darcy by handing AL Mccoy a neat
whipping in ten rounds at the Broadway
Sporting Club last night.
Unless the Mccoy faction succeeds in
blocking plans of Promoter Grant Hugh
Browne, New York fstic fans are GER
tain today that they will witness a battle
royal when Dillon and Darcy get togeth-
er. for both are fighters who use boring in
tactics.
Dillon's victory over Mccoy was de-
cisive. but the fans left the arena won
dering whether Dillon saved himself be-
cause OF the close approach of the Darcy
bout, or whether he has lost his punch
Almost everyone agreed that Dillon
should have won by a Knockout but Dill
Ion did not win in that fashion, though
he hit Mccoy harder than he has hit any
boxer he has faced in a Brooklyn ring
Mccoy simply bounced of Dillon's glove
and came up for more
