SNAPPY BOUTS
PROMISED AT "TEX"
HOPKINS BOXING SHOW

Boxing fans in Augusta and vicin-
ity are showing great deal Of inter-
est in the Sailor Joe Gibbs-Red Cap
Wilson mill that mill be the main at
traction at Tex Hopkins big boxing
show to be held in City hall Wednes-
day. January 2sth. Both Of these
youngsters weight 1873 pounds and
are remarkably clever. Gibbs is a
much sought after man by New Eng
land promoters who realize that he
is a big drawing card on account of
his fast gamey work. Wilson, who's
hailing port is Syracuse, N. Y, is a
tough. snappy lad who knows how to
handle his mitts to advantage and
who packs a wallop that would put a
Missouri mule to shame. He is
speedy on his feet and keeps his op-
ponent working hard from gong to
gong. The sailor lad. however, il
there with the goods. When he puts
his feet on the canvas and starts
things it takes a clever man to stay
with him. His footwork is of the
best and the fans may be assured
that when he crawls through the
ropes that they are going to see a
real show.
The old rivals Spin Mcclure Of Au-
gusta and Young Corbin of Halo
well are also due to clash on the
same evening. in the same show.
This should be q battle that would
keep the fans on their toes from
start to finish. Both men are hum
r1ers and have wanted to get to-
gether for long time. The down
river lad is no SLOUGH either with his
hands or at footwork while Spin"
works hard from beginning to end.
Sport fans are exhibiting a great
deal Of interest in this mill and are
not likely to re disappointed in the
performance Of the boys.
Manager Tex Hopkins is busy ar
ranging another bout but is not
quite ready as yet to announce the
details. however with his will known
ability in matching boxers the fans
ned feel no fear but. that dandy mill
will result-Ady.
