| will meet in the headline event is at
tracing attention of promoters in tn
vicinity of Great Falls and. they ar
seeking the services Of the st. Pau
lightweight for prospective cards to b.
staged before their clubs. Eddie White
matchmaker at Havre has already sue
ceeded in securing the st. Paul lad
services for the card there May q AM
Monk Fowler, who is making his head
quarters in Great Falls will be his op
ponent. Another bout has been OF
fered Schauer at Colorado Springs
Colo, but is to be held on May 26
Manager McNulty received a wire from
Colorado Springs Tuesday night anc
offering him bout with Tommy Car
ter Of Ell Paso, Texas. for the next
show there. Carter defeated Kid Mex
of Pueblo. Ariz. on the last card OF
Colorado Springs and has also fought
phis and Jimmie Hanlon of Denver
McNulty wired the promoter and asked
him to postpone the match for couple
of days and he would gladly accept the
match.
Schauer has been working zealously
at the Y. NJ. c. A. gymnasium the last
the fight Monday. His speed and clev-
that he has a punch in either hand,
which will spell defeat for his opponent
if he manages to get it across. He has
been unable to use it extensively in his
training so far as he holds it when
working with his light sparring part
ners. Occasionally in his workouts
with "Chick'' Ferguson and "AIatty''
Bross he forgets himself and uncovers
either right or left that surprises
his audience. In his workout yesterday
he let a left 60 which caught Bross
flush on the chin and the aspiring
lightweight hit the canvas. He will
probably have better change to show
his punching ability today "wednesday
when he works out with 'Pete" Bross.
Bross and his manager, Fred Goldhahn
hahn, have been working out at Geral-
dine. For the remaining days of train
ing Schauer will work out with 'Pete'
and "Matty" Bross and with Ferguson.
A wire was received Tuesday from
Earl France in which he stated that
he would leave Butte this Wednesday,
and would arrive in Great
Falls for workout this "wednesday
afternoon. He is anxious to have d
good crowd of sparring partners on
hand and it is very likely he will be
satisfied. He will work out with
Johnny Janetski, Kid Leo and prob
ably Jimmy Roe. Fans are anxious to
see him in his training togs that they
may make some comparison of the
respective merits Of the two headline
fighters. Some of the wise ones are
placing their money on Schauer with
out seeing his opponent and figure
from what they have seen of Schauer
that he is better man than France.
The betting also seems to be in favor
Of, Bross over ''BilP' Crawford in the
semi-windup.
The semi-windup will be a tough
one to pick winner in and it is certain
that there is no certainty either way
although both men are confident that
the bout will be short one and win
will be carried in K. Q. punch Bross
has some cleverness but is practically
a novice and his speed will probably
serve him in good stead against his
heavier opponent. But Crawford is
not so sure that the speed of his op-
2onent will be sufficient and is con-
Fident that he will surprise his young
r opponent with his speed and punch.
Crawford is an old head at the game
md may fool the betters. He has been
working hard since he signed the ar
,icles for the fight and his followers
ire confident that he will win from
Bross. He will likely change his train
ny quarters to the Y. M. G. A. today
Wednesday, or Thursday.
The Havre promoters have certainly
secured good headline event for their
light on May % and Schauer and Fow-
er will stage fight that will be on a
var with any held in Montana But
sreat Falls is not behind them in their
,out and it is good bet that the
,eadline event of the Monday night
ard will surpass in merits the main
vent on the Havre card. Fans know
What Fowler is they have seen him in
lction here and in other places. Great
Falls fans have some idea of the style
Il fighter Schauer is from watching
lin in his training rounds and after
he fight next Monday they will be able
o decide which is the better match.
schauer and France are more evenly
matched in the matter of weight and
IS there is dispute between them as
o. the outcome of previous bout the
ikht will be to decide this question.
FOWLER is a trifle light for fighter
L Schauer's caliber and will probably
ain more by keeping his distance from
he St. Paul lightweight. The France
;chauer setto should afford a great
eal more real milling than the
Fowler 60 and that is usually
that the fans seek Cleverness is al
light and goes quite ways with the
pectators but what they really crave is
ction and like to see the men stand
oe to toe and exchange their wares.
his will be, or should be one feature
{ the main. event here Monday night |
nd it is possible that the Havre head
ne will afford some amount of box
ng and less real fighting.
A st. Paul heavyweight may wend
is way west and fight on the same |
ard with Schauer at Colorado Springs. |
