EVEN WEIGHTS
 FEATURE ELKS'
 SMOKER BOUTS
All Contestants in Six Fights Carded Well-Matched-
 Fast Goes Expected.

Jack Wilson, matchmaker for the 1 Elks' Smoker Saturday night, today declared that seldom, if ever, had as many bouts (siX) been scheduled anywhere in which the contestants were so evenly matched for weight, Excepting the heavyweight match, in which Higley is some fifteen pounds heavier than Collier, all of the opposing boxers are within a few pounds, in some cases a few ounces, of each other and all are reported in the traditional pink. Merit alone is apt to decide the 1 bouts.
 Many boxing fans are attempting 10 pick winners but it is largely guess work. Picking the star bout of the evening clsO is a difficult matter as often some event billed as a preliminary may furnish more 1 thrills than one set down as a main event or semi-wind up. All opin- | ions agree, however, on the fact that the Carlos -Beaudin go will be one of the most thrilling of the night. Carlos in training has been showing so much speed that those who have seen him go say that he is worthy antagonist of Bill Bcaudin who is an exceedingly clever and strong boxer.
 It is planned to have everyone in their seats by 8:45 Saturday night and to have the bouts start promptly It nine o'clock, Jack Wilson and Tom Macdonald will alternate as referees sx
