BOUT
FOR THE GARDEN
Jackson and Fitzsimmons to
Box There Friday
Night,
by CHARLES r. MATuIsoN.


The boxing programme for the present
week is diversified one, with the Jack
son-Fltzsimmons encounter at Madison
Square Garden next Friday night easily
holding the place of honor. This con-
test is interesting for many reasons,
but chiefly because the combativeness of
both boxers insures lively bout. If
either wins decislvely the victor would
be quite apt to get a match with Benny
Leonard. Fitzsimmons had match
with the champion several weeks ago.
out reached the conclusion he was not
ready at that time for so important
bout
Those who would like to see Carpen-
tier in the ring will have the opportunity
tonight, as he boxes three round ex-
hlbtion bout with Joe Jeanette, at
Paterson, n. J. The set contests will
intr oduce Gene Tunney In a bout with
Paul Sampson. Jimmy Duffy against
Gene belmont and Willie Herman
against Ralph Brady
With the object OF catering to the
comfort and convenience OF his patrons,
Tex Richard has completed plans by
which the floor seats in the arena will
be gradually elevated from the ringslde
to the back row. This will give the
occupants of all the seats clear and
unobstructed view OF the ring, and will
o6viate the necessity OF the spectators
In the back rows rising every time there
is an exciting situation in the ring.
When this Improvement is completed
the Garden will unquestionably be the
best appointed boxing club in the coun-

from the annoying incidents usually met
with in clubs. Tho admirable conditions
at the Garden have resulted In the at
tendance Of a surprisingly large number
Of women at recent boxing entertain
ments there.
If Louis Bogash. the Bridgeport well
ter. used his right hand as effectively
as he does his left he would be unbeat-
able. His left is powerful weapon.
He does not Jab with It. but shoots Ii
out straight and true to the face with
terrific force. AS he is a good de-
fensive boxer he will always be danger
ous Yet If he could hit with his right
he would be apt to stop most of his
opponents I'm short order. Unfortunately,
Bogash chops with his right and nearly
always at short range, the blows being
ineffective. In the eighth round of his
Friday night Bogash hit Cross with
heavy left and had the New Yorker
wabbiing against the ropes. Instead OF
measuring his man and sending over
decisive right, Bogash stepped In and
slapped Cross on the jaw with chop
ping right.
Bogash's right is nearly rs useless as
that OF Pal Moore. who might as well
have his right in a sling.
Earl Puryear. Western bantam
without much class. will receive the
acid test tomorrow night when he
faces Abe Attell Goldstein at the Com
monYcslth Sporting Club.
Johnny Drummie. the best lightweight
In Jersey. will meet Artie OLeary I'm
Grand View Hall. Jersey City. next
Thursday night. Drummie should win
handly.
Jimmy Clabby Is IN trouble with the
New Zealand boxing authorities. he hav-
ing been suspended for six months by
the New Zealand Boxing Council for
failure TO keep an engagement TO box
with Fritz Holland. Clabby claimed
that there was u MISUNDERSTANDING as.to
the purse. but the order bf suspension is
still I'm force.
If Tex Richard wishes 70 stage a bout
that will be full OF thrills let him put
Tommy Noble and Bobby Michaels In
the ring az tho Garden. Noble got the
decision over Mlchaels at the end OF fif-
teen exciting rounds at the Common
wealth Sporting Club. but the East
Slider believes he can reverse the verdict.
Billy De Foe and Ralph Brady, who
are to box at tho Garden next Friday,
will have n chance 10 show whether the
action of Jersey referee In ordering
them out of the ring was Justified
