LYNCH n MEET SAILOR DUNN;
 LEGION BOUTS

Washington's birthday in Prescott and at Whipple Barracks will see a big, straightforward revival of the boxing game, with a series of fights that will be clean as well as real. Under the auspices CT the American Legion, with NJ. P. Mahoney, of Whipple. stage-managing the event and w. M Roberts giving the line up a careful once-over, all four flushers. three-round fakirs, and in fants will be vigorously barred from the ring, under penalty of being shot at sunrise, if they put In an appear ance; and Sergeant Charley Lynch will come up against man who, from his ring record here and at Jerome, will give him scrap that will make the Whipple favorite work
 Sailor Dunn, of Jerome, will be Lynch's opponent in 10-round scrap that will be worth seeing, and will be Lynch's real opportunity to put on the fight that everyone in Prescott and at the post knows he can put up. Dunn is a man who will not fight under a $200 guaran- tee and that is the sort of guaran tee he is coming to the post 10 fight under. Lynch's chief interest in the event is to show the fans what he can do; and he says he is willing to let the gate receipts go by if they fall down. A fighter Of the Ser geant's class, however, deserves good reward.
 On the same card with the Lynch Dunn go will be seen siX-round battle between Tiny Redfield, of Prescott, and Eddie Morgan, the snappy little fighter from Jerome. Manager Mahoney is now busy plan ming series of preliminaries which should add greatly to the attractive ness of the first American Legion fight card. He has a number of applicants for the prelims, and is carefully selecting those he consid- CTS the best.
 The receipts accruing to the legion after the expenses are cared for, will be divided fifty-fifty for work among American Legion members in town and at the post, and it is hoped that enough interest will be shown to make it worth while for the legion to bring other first class boxers here for future cards.

Hitherto members enter ing fire department companies i'll this city have made the trip by the straight overland route. but last night, in order to vary the scenery and add little excitement to the trip, the hook and ladder company took the travellers over the crooked and winding road of initiation.
 That the new members enjoyed the trip, however, was evidenced by the way they took in the rest of the program. Fire Chief Bob Cornell delivered a series of brief remarks, considering several minor problems in the life of a hook and ladder com pany, and talking over few routine matters connected with his reports.
 A generous share of the evening was devoted to the consideration of an excellent oyster stew supper.
