early in December. During the past
year or more Genaro and Villa have
been s~idestepping the former local
boxer, but it is believed that if Rick

make a good offer the bout will be
cinched.
With this bout in view the two
boys are training harder than ever
for next Fridays contest. This fight
should be the best ever staged in this
city and already numerous bets have
been placed that the contest will not
go the limit.
The two boxers have c~reditable
records, the Harrisburg lad having a.
shade the best to date. In one case
Russell kayoed Ray Balmont OF
Philadelphia in three rounds, and
the same fighter went eight rounds
