South, Alabama being his native
State, and his father called him after

HOLIDAY B|LLAT
THE LOTOSC CLUB
One Eight, Two Skies and a
Four Round Bout for Big
Show Tomorrow

The Lotos show tomorrow night at
the Palace Hall arena Will be the
holiday offering as promoter Joe Nc
Nulty a decided to hold no show
next Wednesday, which is Christmas
Day. One eight-round bout. two six
round tussles and a four will consti-
tute the bill for the evening and
every one of these scraps will be the
kind that make he fans yearn for
more. Every man on the bill for to-
morrow with the exception of the
participants of the special six-round
match, have fought In the local ring
and has proven himself a great draw
ing card.
frankie Wilson. who fought as a
Morgan boy before the explosion sent
all the prizefghters north, has made
himself quite a favorite here by his
aggressive fighting and cleverness.
frankie won most of his battles at
h Lotos as well rs at the Gillespie
ring. But o Tiplitz was the boy
that supplanted Wilson. The first
time these two boys met was at Nor
gan when Wilson. fresh from q vic
tory IN the local ring. took IN the
tough Tiplitx and got slammed
around the ring for three rounds.
Immediately thereafter these boys
were romatched and since hat time
have fought together in various rings.
including the Lotos. about five times.
with Tiplitx winning by anything
from slight shade to q substantial
lead. The Tight tomorrow will give
Wilson the opportunity OF squaring
things up with Tiplitz. but he'll have
TO go pretty fast to beat the little
fellow.
Bobby Michaels and Willie Gard
ner will furnish the excitement In
the seminal six-round bout. Mich
aels has fought here a number OF
times but his opponent. Gardner, who
has become quite a favorite here, had
q slight advantage over him in their
last encounter. Both boys are fast
men n good publishers and a dandy
bout ought to result. Michaels has
been drawing some pretty stiff con-
siEnments In Newark rings during
h past few weeks and will be in
tip-top condition for Gardner.
Mickey Brown, OF New York. will
swap punches with Al DeTsose In the
preliminary and as the local fight fol-
lowers know these boys well. a good
fight can be anticipated.
Tho special six-Tound scrap brings
together Johnny Demish Of Carteret
and Dummy Sullivan. This is Dem
ish's first fight IN a prize ring and
his dominates expect big things from
Johnny. The Dummy, who quit at
the lsst show, convinced Joe McNuity
that he had hurt his hand at that
performance and had to quit on ac-
count of the injury and Joe has given
him another chance. Another display
of the yellow and the Dummy will be
blacElisted at this club.

added thai just now he really hoped
that he would not go back TO the dia-
mond.
I'm going down to my home in
Augusta, Ga. and rest up for several
month"; said Capt. Cobb. "I Intend
to break away from baseball. I'm
tired of IL. I've had fifteen years of

Leonardo will furnish the opposi-
ton for the local high school quintet
tomorrow afternoon and Coach Miss
Burns Is confident that her team will
emerge from the conflict v~ictors.
There was no game played with the
Leonardo team last year by the boys;
however. the girls team trimmed the
girls Ave of Leonardo by the over
whelming score of Sg-1. This does
not speak for the boys team, how
ever, as h a aggregation Is OF much
better quality. Two years ago the
local quintet twice forced the Leon
ardo team to bite the dust by the
scores of s9-ao n 25-12.
1t was thought from information
received earlier this season that
Leonardo would be one of the easy
games for the Amboy ball t~ossers.
but it has since been learned that
Leonardo has a crack five this year
and expects to take home the scalp
of the crimson and white team.
The team which Miss Burns will
place against the Leonardo dribblers
will in all probability be selected from
the following material: Forwards.
