 An hour before the time for the opening of the show the men from the various ships had taken their seats near the ring. As time went on the stands constructed on the deck became filled and the men climbed on the turrets, then the masts and finally the Siard-arm held it's quota of visiting sailors who had come to cheer their favorites to victory. The masts of the Arizona looked for all the world like a village of cave dwellers with the numerous white-clad sailormen cling ing to it for support

With the twinkling lights of New York skyscrapers in the distance, the occasional shriek of some pudgy little launch passing the ship. and the clouds overhead for a canopy, the setting was one to be remembered by the sporting writers of the various newspapers and news bureaus who had gathered at the ringside for the event.
 The tap of the gong brought an end to the buzz of conversation, and few seconds after two 1.-the, muscular figures climbed through the ropes. After a few preliminaries the referee called the principals. B. Fl. Hillard, of the U. s. S. Utah and S. Castellucci of the IT. S. s.
