If Louis Bogash decisive1y defeats
Johnny Summers of Jersey in their
II round battle at the Arena on Mon
day night it is likely that the Con-
necticut champion will be matched
to fight Ted kid" Lewis, the former
weller champion, in the next show
to be staged by the Bridgeport Ath-
letic &c Amusement company, accord
ing to a hint from Matchmaker
George Dwyer this morning.
Since his battle with Britton at the
Arena there has been considerable
talk as to whether the worlds cham
pfon weller did his best against
Bogash or not and to settle all this
the officials of the Amusement COM
pany plan to- bring the man who
Britton licked to Bridgeport and put
him up against Bogash. That should
worked or not, but this all depends
on Bogash's showing against Sum-
mers on Monday night.
In their last battle Summers de-
Ifvered some hard rights to Bogash's
head and body and many believed
more than he bargained for, but
Bogash's followers believe Louis can
rock the Jerseyite out of commission
| and are wagering money that he will
do it on Monday night. Bogash is
| just as anxious for the meeting and
| he has been straining every bit Of
energy to put himself in the fttest
of shape for the mill Monday night.
