GIBBONS FOR
4. GRAND FORKS
P~hantom'says Sporting Fans
Show Right Spirit in
This City.

By the large turnout of ans at the
boxing exhibition staged last night at
the auditorium, Grand Forks showed
a better sporting spirit than any other
city in the United States. This state
ment was made this morning by Mike
Collins, manager Of Mike Gibbons,
who appeared on the card here Tues
day night! To substantiate this he
gave some very interesting figures.
He said that when the gate receipts
of an exhibition amounts in dollars to
five per cent of the population of a
city, the results are considered good.
The dollars taken in last night
amounted to II per cent of the popu-
,lation of Grand Forks and East Grand
Forks, a remarkable record. Collins
said that a ten per cent average was
a rare occurrence. In Fargo the aver
age has eve been above five per
cent, while in Minneapolis it is gem
orally less than n per cent
Mr.. Collins spoke very highly of
the general management of the show
staged here, saying that the different
events compared very favorably with
bouts staged in larger cities. He and
Mike Gibbons left this noon for the
Twin Cities.
The. reporter failed to take into con-
sideration that boxers don't always
keep business hours, and hence
caught Mike in bed this morning. But
the Phantom was just as good-natured
before breakfast as later in the day,
and seemed to have suffered no i'll eff
fects from his tussle with Leo Stokes
Of Fargo.
GOOD Word For Stokes.
- tT 49, -. $500. --,.-S- . q
he said. 'The g~ood-natured crowd put
us both in good humor. Stokes,
though inexperienced. may in time
make a good fighter. He has the
physique, the speed, and better yet,
the fighting heart. His is young and
a few more years may make quite a
difference. There is no such thing as
born fighter. A man may be born
with the necessary qualities, but a
boxer is the result of much ring ex-
perience, n scientific practice. I
like to see a young boxer get a chance,
and I seldom put them away unless
forced to, as I don't like to make
them discouraged.
kota but its game laws which forbids
hunters using dogs when shooting
chickens. which is my %favorite sport,
If I lived in the state I think I would
stir up a little noise to have this law
repealed, for hunting without a dog
is not hunting at all. 1 would rather
take my dog with me Inc leave my
gun at home, just for the sport OF
seeing him work. When taking a trir
to North Dakota last fall, I brought
my dog with me, but 10 and behold,
I found I could not use him."
Mike Gibbons and his manager
Mike Collins, expect to start for the
Pacific coast in about a month. They
have several tentative fights lined UP
in Seattle, and also in San Francisco
Mike will . also appear on cards in
other western cities, and will conclude
the trip by taking q u to the Ha.
waiian stands for a few bouts. The
Hawaiians are great sport fans, Mr.
Collins said. He sends to Honolulu g..

Al street car was derailed this morn

rails by the swelling pavement blocks.
No one was injured, and a %wrecking
crew soon had the car back on to the

the 8 o'clock classes at the university
was very small. r.
The pavement at this point is con-
structed from %creosote blocks. which
had absorbed moisture following the
spring thaw. The freeze last night
caused the blocks to swell, with the
result that the rails were displaced.
