FIGHT CARD is
PROMISING ONE
Tomorrow Evenings Entertain
meRt of the Rock Island Ath-
letic Club Looks Good.
PRKLrMs ABOVE THE AVERAGE
Indicate More Excitement Than
Main GO-MeanOr Says Seating
Difficulty Remedfed.

From all outward indications to-
morrow nights fight card at the
Empire skating ring should be
good.
AS the main attraction, Bob
York, local pride, is scheduled to
step 10 rounds with Stockyards
Tommy Murphy OF Chicago. Both
are middleweights, tipping the
beam around 160 pounds.
Murphy comes to this city with
the reputation of a rearin' tearin'
battler, not long on cleverness but
just a plain, hardy slugger. the
kind OF a boxer the fans would pay
three prices to see perform We all
know York and are familiar with
his style of milling. The local boy
is fairly clever, a hittin' fool and
can eat hard punishment. He never
stops, or hasn't in any exhibitions
here thus far, but keeps boring in,
his fight being give and take. There
should be some little excitement
when two such boys of almost iden-
teal style get into the same ring
for supposedly 80 minutes.
If the preliminarieS go through
without a hitch. however. they
should draw better than the head
line setto. AS a semi-windup John
ny Donahue will box Johnny Hoff-
man of Milwaukee six rounds-if
Hoffman lasts for the entire SIX
sessions. That is exceedingly doubt
full according to the wise birds, who
say that this Hoffman person Is due

ter he climbs into the arena with

ing the best form OF his career in
daily workouts with York. Dundee
and Schieberl.
Jimmy Gill will box Kid Cutie for
a scheduled six rounds in the main
preliminary. Gill is one OF the
most promising of Rock Island s
host Of mitt beginners and gives
promise of 4 real hope in the IN
ture, He is much bigger and has
all the advantages against Cutie,
but the latter has vet 10 fall before
an opponent in local ring, no mat

Ray Zies Of Rock Island IS fin

up the delegations from the coun-
ties down the district With Adams
and Rock Island solid and with the
support Thompson had in other
counties It was seen before the aft
ernoOn session opened that no 9TH
CT candidate had a chance for the
nomination and so it was made
unanimous.
Much enthusiasm was shown by
the delegates. Mr.. Thompson was
given quite an ovation and mention
of the name of President Wilson
evoked prolonged cheering. Speak
ers predicted the success of the
candidate in the coming judicial
election, and also that the presi-
Dental campaign of 1920 will result
in a different story from that of the
congressional campaign last fall.
Mr.. Thompson justified the faith
%eposed in him by pledging himself

he was promised every assistance
that those taking part in the con-
vention can give.
