 Cappelle and Salvador will enter the ring at catchweights, although the men have agreed that they will not tip the scales at more than five pounds above the 1852 pound mark Both Cappelle and Salvador are 135-pound boys, al- though one and maybe both will enter the ring tonight under that figure. They also will step over the 10 rounds.
 Grant and O'NeilI will meet at 150 pounds, give or take two pounds. That is to say, one or both men can weigh as much as 152 pounds or as little as 14S pounds.
 Seldom has so much interest been evidenced in any local boy as is cent cred in O'Neill. In his first local ring appearance here a few weeks ago, his work electrified a record crowd and gave rise to the belief that he would eventually gain wide recognition. He works with lightnign rapidity, has a terrific punch and is clever. In Grant. however, he is meeting a performer of recognized ability-one who has met and defeated many of the best boys of his weight. His ten-round draw with Rufus Williams a few months ago, stamps him as a tough boy.
 The opening event of the evenings oastiming will be a four-round heavy- weight match between Jack Wander and Big O'Brien, these giants agreeing 70 meet at 180 pounds ringside Wander stands six feet, one inch in his stock ing feet and his opponent is one inch shorter.

 Three different referees will officiate at the different events and thus local fans will be assured a diversion in the method of handling the boxers at least.
 In the first two events, Nick Cap belle will have the say so on disputed points In the semi final, Tommy Mo Farland, once a noted lightweight boxer but now assistant director in the Fox studios at Los Angeles. will guide Kid Grant and Ira O NeiIl through the proper ring formalities while the two are endeavoring to put one another into dreamland.
