Glenn JOHNSON GETS
REAL TEST TONIGHT
Harry Wills Will Make Latest
Dark Horse Fight as
Well as Box.
ny CHARLES +. MATHIsoN.

The question as to whether a salts
factory trial bout in a gymnasium in
dicates ability to make good fight
In the ring will be settled tonight
when Glenn johnson faces Harry Wills
in a bout scheduled for fifteen rounds
In Madison Square Garden. Johnson
made a satisfactory showing in short
bouts in Grupp's Gymnasium Wednes-
day afternoon and thus paved the way
for a meeting with Wills. II Johnson
does as well against Wills as he did in
test bouts 1t may enable patrons OF
boxing TO forget the Jaeksonian epi-
sodes.
Johnson is the equal of Wills physi-
cally. and unless he gets frightened
like the Jacksons- Buddy and Tut--Wills
should not have an easy time of it.
Comparing the records of the men.
II can hardly be expected that john
son will defeat Wills. and all will be
forgiven If he makes a good fight
against the man who is matched with
Dempsey
There Is even more interest in the
Floyd Johnson-W Whitley Allen bout than
in the chief event. The white johnson
has delivered the goods in each of his
contests here since his arrival from
the Coast
Floyd Johnson In fact is substantial
ing the assertion of Alex Greggains that
the youngster will be heard from. in the
heavyweight division in few years.
Johnson has knocked out all of his OPP
ponents up to date, and has shown good
form In all particulars He has size.
weight, speed, a fair amount of boxing
skill, and can both hit and take punish
ment. He is an aggressive boxer, which
Is the sort most admired by spectators.
In Whitley Allen Johnson will face a
veteran with plenty of defensive skin,
and the Californian may be puzzled for
time. But the youngster should score
a knockout before the twelfth round Is
reached.
Charley McKenna. one of the best
liked of amateur champions, will appear
in a six round contest witi,Ieo Gates.
and this should add interest to the pro-
gram.
Jack Britton will sail for Cuba to-
morrow, where he will engage in a con-
test with Jimmy Kelly of The Bronx.
This bout will give the Cubans an ex-
celent idea as to what constitutes scien-
tifc boxing. Britton is one OF the few
champions who does not think he is
smart enough to outpoint Wall Street or
knock out the racing experts.
