hit by defeating Terry McCull, of Al
lentown, Pa. The semi-windup will
bring together a pair Of slashing
Philadelphia bantams, Joe Nelson,

Mack. Of Port Richmond. Nelson has
met all the leading bantamweights
in the country, including Kid Will

Port Richmond. has been coming TO
the front rapidly during the past
year and has defeated every boy he
has met
The main preliminary will bring
together Joe Hall, OF this city, and

test, as Christie is a very good lad.

bantamweight championship, and
Benny Bass, OF Philadelphia. Bass
is classed as one Of. the leading boys
in the Quaker City. and will carry

of the evening. as Dexter is. without
doubt. the classiest boy Mickey has
ever faced. A large crowd from this
city viii take In the show, which viii
be run at popular prices. Local fans
should get off at West Philadelphia
as the Palace is about three blocks
