CHATHAM AND SAUER AGREE ON
 REFEREE FUR FRIDAYS MATCH

A wrestling match of championship caliber, four round boxing match that promises action galore and a four round boxing exhibition combines to make the athletic carnival at Tallys s open air arena Friday night one of the biggest sports attractions of the wrestling season. Crowds from all sec tions 0f the state are coming to wit ness the Clapham- Sauer return meet ing and, as extra value, Promoter Tally has scheduled the two padded mitt bouts.
 Billy McCann. popular lightweight battler, has been secured to referee both boxing bouts; Ward Adams of The Arizona Republican will serve iQ a like capacity in the head spinning battle.
 Dispute over a suitable referee for the wrestling match threatened, for a time, to result in the bout being called off. CIapham positively refused to wrestle if Jake Erhardt acted as third man in the ring Erhardt is the reg u1ar club referee and his work had al- ways proven entirely satisfactory, but for some reason, the English title holder took objection and would not concede the point.
 It was only natural that Sauer should hold out for Erhardt rather than to agree to some one with whose work he was not acquainted. Erhardt has officiated in practically every match held in this city and at no time has there been any complaint from either the wrestlers or the fans.
 Clapham labored under the delusion however, that Erhardt's acquaintance with Sauer might result in favoritism to the local grappler should an occa- sion present itself
 T am thoroughly satisfied that Err hQTdf c honest n "a "a but it is only natural that he should be prejudiced against an outsider as compared with a Phoenix man." Clap ham declared.
 When Clapham threatened to break up training and leave the city, Sauer conceded the point and Adams was agreed upon as a suitable substitute on this occasion.
 I'm going in to win this match so conclusively that a referee won't be needed to determine the winner Sauer declared in conceding the point.
