 FEN|KS FANS 1T NEW CAPITAL
 CITY STADIUM THIS EVENING

With the stage set for the grand opening, the new Capital City Sta dium at 18th and Jefferson streets will greet the fans this evening with two of the best lightweights on the Pacific coast. When Earl France and Frankie Farren start popping Lovinson's brides tonight Phoenix fight fans will see two Class A mill; CTS in action.
 Earl France has gained an envi-l able reputation in the southwest both as a fighter and a gentleman His record shows a long line of victories covering 112 fights. True France has lost several fights since he started in the ring game, but he is just as popular in defeat as victory. When France agrees to fight he goes through with his end of the agree ment and the fight fan is guaranteed a run for his money.
 Farren has never boxed in Phoenix, but his record fin San Francisco, Los Angeles. New Orleans and eastern cities proves him a fighter of merit and a fitting opponent for Earl France in opening the arena. Farren has the prettiest style of mixing with both hands that local fans have been privileged to watch since the game resumed He swings a terrific wall lop with either hand, has an almost perfect defense and is a hard defen- sive fighter. He beat Oakland Jimmy Duffey at 1ss pounds and Farren is a legitimate lightweight
 France holds a newspaper. decision over Fuffey at Portland. Duffey weighed 13S& pounds for the France fight
 Both France and Farren rate among the top notchers pugilistically and the winner of tonight's scrap can lay claim to the lightweight cham pionship of the west without dispute.
 It is hard to pick a winner with Farren and France hitting well above the 500 mark. France has developed a punch and has always been a care fnl defensive worker. He is exceed ingly clever and his gameness cannot be questioned. Farren is equally clever, is game and his kayo record proves he has a sleep producer, in fact his punching ability is superior to Frances waliop, and Earl has a kick" of his own.
