raising appetizer to the recent Kra- mer- Lincoln match.
 A special siX-round even, between Johnny Meyer the Bisbee weIter, and Young Banta of the CZar shaft, will precede the main ten-round bout. Santa, who has ten pounds the best of Meyer in weight, bup lacks his expe- rience and science, has the solid back ing of the men of the Czar.
 Al Williams will referee all bouts, and George Henshaw of Tombstone will be the announcer. Kid George was first slated for referee, but is un- able to act owing to the fact that he is training Loughrey for the bout. He will be in Loughrey's corner during the contest. Both Williams and George have proved themselves among the most efficient referees in the Southwest, and there is practical ly nothing to choose between the merits Of the two as third man in the ring.

WELTERWE|GHTS SHOWFOR LAST TIME TODAY BEFORE CARNIVAL
 OFF|STIC EVENTS CHRIST MAS

A double attraction. including an op- portunity to a line on goth principals in the Christmas boxing card of the Bisbee Athletic club, will be presented to the local fans today.
 Kid Palmer, welterweight champion of the United States army, who ar rived in Bisbee yesterday from Doug will go through a light workout at o'clock this afternoon in the K. Of c. hall. Palmer is tapering off in his training, but will put on plenty of fast gymnasium stunts to satisfy the fans as to his form, and give them an opportunity to judge how he sizes up beside Frank Loughrey, the local ia vorite. Palmer brought Sammy Mor ris, the speedy Australian lightweight from Douglas with him for this after noon's workout.
 When Palmer finishes, Frank at 4 o'clock, and go through his final stunts before the match. The fans will thus see both men, and may form their opinions of the outcome of the Christmas day battle accordingly.
 Palmer and Morris announced yes terday that several hundred soldiers as well as number of other fans, are coming up from Douglas to see the contest. Promoter O. s. French has also received word that a big delesa- tion is coming from Cananea, where the mines will be shut down. AS both the Copper Queen and c. & A. mines in Bisbee will be shut down for Christ mas day, the attendance in Warren park should be the largest for any bouts yet staged in the Warren dis trict, if not in Arizona.
 Added interest is being given to the Palmer-Loughrey bout, which is for the welterweight championship of the Southwest, through the fact that the winner of it will be matched with the winner of the Happy Woods-Eddie Mo Larney Christmas bout in Tucson. Many fans in this end of the state are figuring that Woods will meet his Waterloo in the clever McLarney, who is welterweight champion of the navy, as Palmer is of the army.
 Promoter French announces that the Christmas bouts will begin promptly at 1:30 o'clock in Warren park. Construction of the new ring and placing of hundreds of additional chairs ill the park will be completed today.
 The bouts will begin with a four round curtain raiser between Red Milburn, pride of the Western Union messenger boys, who is making his in itial bow in the roped arena, and Cy> clone Shea. A special four-round pre- liminary will follow, in the shape of a. a.return meeting between Battling Herrera and Young Griffo, who fought each other to standstill in a hair

|S MORE POPULAR
 THAN DEMP PSEY

France is still raving over Georges Carpenter. The French are quite dip py over their champion. The popu- larity of Georges in his native land far suTpasses the favor in which Jack Dempsey is held by the American sporting public, but that is Dempsey's fault. Had Jack availed himself of the opportunities that all other young Americans had during the time this country was at war with Germany, he would be an idol, too. Dempsey is a great fighter and the type which makes hit with the fans, but the hit he makes is discounted by his war rec ord.

 The public appreciates the super lative ability of a champion, but it is exacting in it's demands in character and personality. A champion must be every inch a man if he is going to be an idol.
 That is why France is outbidding American promoters for the much talked of match between Carpenter and Dempsey for the worlds heavy weight title.
