MUCH INTEREST IN
GREB-GIBBONS BOUT
Tom Will Be Favorite When
They Enter Ring in Gar
den Tomorrow.

Much intereA is centered in the Tom
Gibbons Harry Greb encounter, which Is
to take place tomorrow night in Madi-
son Square Garden. The fact that the
affair is for the benefit of the MILK
Fund" and the victor will be In line for
q contest with Champion Jack Dempsey
are reasons why a big crowd is looked
for. Many society people have sub
scribed for boxes.
Both are trained to the minute and
each is confident of victory. Tom de-
clares he is going to knock Greb out in
less than seven rounds. He has been
made a 2 to l favorite. Greb expects
to hand his supporters the surprise OF
their lives by not only taking everything
Tom will hand out but by giving Glib
bons a lacing. The general opinion Is
that IL Gibbons doesn't knock the skids
from under his opponent in the first few
rounds Greb will get stronger and box
rings around him. scoring enough points
to get the verdict.
This will be the fourth meeting be-
tween them. They began in st. Paul
and fought two more in Greb's baili-
wick.
In the workouts Gibbons impressed the
critics with his punching ability, which
they believe will help TO NOV down
Greb. Toms last important victory was
knockout over Pat Mccarthy in Bos-
ton.
Greb made profound impression with
the Garden fans several months ago
when he defeated Charley Weinert in
fifteen rounds. Jack Dempsey will be at
the ringside to give his two prospective
opponents the careful "once over"
Three eight round bouts will keep the
spectators in good humor before the
headliners climb through the ropes.

the door, and he returned to Mrs.
Bowser, muttering something about in
fernal impudence, to which she re-
piled: ...
Don't be so impatient; your reform
seems to be working"
In about Is minutes there was a
third ring and third peddler stood
at the door and softly said:
f. MR.. Bowser, are you in want of
some nice vegetables? I have some
beauties out here, and there Is a bar
gain in every bunch of them. / have
some tomatoes here almost as big as

Mr. BOwser, land. don't you ever come
here again."
"Just as you say, old man." quietly
replied the peddler. IF have put you
out any, you must pardon me-"
When Mr. Bowser returned to the
sitting room this time, he found Mrs.
Bowser trying hard to, keep a sober
face, and he shouted at her:
"Oh, it's very funny, is it?. Well, I'll
show you whether it's funny or not
If another peddler calls, he shall die
right on our door step!"
No other peddler called. After a
lapse Of a few minutes the telephone
bell rang, and Mr.. Bowser responded
with hello" to hear a voice saying:
"Mr. Bowser, beg your pardon for
disturbing you. Do you want some
string beans for your dinner tomor-
row? have other things. I have some

big bargain If you want a quart or
two" ....,.
"You internal rascalg" yelled Mr..
Bowser, as he hung up the receiver.
Within the hour there were four
more calls, and then Mr.. Bowser put
on his hat and left the house, hoping
to find someone and wash his hands In
