Nelson And Finley To Box At Athletic Club On Mo-
 Vember 5

He has fought 159 ring battles and in all this string of engagements he has never been put down for the count. This boy is Iron Man" Joe Nelson or Alexandria, La., who has fought and defeated some of the best boys in the game.
 Fitted against the Louisiana Lar ruper is Jimmy Finley, the Louisville slugger. The popular Jimmy has boxed his way into the hearts of southern and eastern fandom of late, and has been tentatively signed to meet Mickey Walker. the champion, in Louisville, as a derby eve attrac- tion immediately before the running of the Kentucky derby in May.
 The Finley-Nelson 10-round bout should by all odds prove the most attractive and best attended affair ever staged at the Birmingham Ath- letic club, Secretary Roberts an- nouncing that the advance seat sale would start early to accommodate out-of-towners, and that the an nouncement of the advance ticket sale would be made in the next day or so. q look for this bout to draw the biggest crowd in the history of 
 And that's not the half of 1t. An old favorite Is seeking to enter come-backville and will make his stab for the plaudits of the fans Monday night week. Battling Kelly, once a popular favorite here, has been going great guns in the east as semi windup boy, and announces that he is in the best shape of his career. He's to meet John McGinty in an eight-round affair Monday night as a forerunner to the Finley scrap. Kelly has been promised a fight with the winner of the Nelson Finley bout, in the event he IS sue cessful in demonstrating that he Is really in perfect condition and can beat McGinty.
 Nelson Has Beat Many.
 Noda Nelson, the man who has sur vived 150 ring battles, in his recent pugnacious programs, has defeated some mighty good boys. some Of the men he has won over recently follow: {: Beat Ray Rivers in 10-round bout at Hot Springs; got draw with Matt Brock at Hot Springs; knocked out Matt Burgess in one round at Pine Bluff: won over Jack Russo in 1o rounds at Alexandria, La.; beat Tommy Milton in 10 rounds at San dusky, O.; won from Sid Barbarian in 10 rounds at Detroit Mich; won from Pete McCluskey in 10 rounds at Tol- edo; won from Jimmy Muche in 10 rounds at Springfield.
