Matches A. E. F. Champ
With McCoy-GiIbert
to Meet Corners.

Babe Asher bantamweight cham
pion of the \. i. f., has apparently
suffered no i'll effects as a result of a
three weeks layoff while an injured
eye healed and looked so good in his
first workout the other day that Pro-
mOter Jack Shelton decided to change
his plans and match Asher, instead of
Little Jeff, against Johnny Mccoy in
the ten-rOund main event at Beethoven
Hall Tuesday night.
ASHER is the boy for Mccoy" Shell
ton shouted enthusiastically over the
phone. Man, he's a wonder at close
quarters"
Then Jack went on to explain that
il Mccoy and Asher wore breast-plates
and brass knucks, a clinch between the
two would sound like a couple of
riveters at work.
Asher's erstwhile bum eye is in good
shape again and apparently his judg-
ment of distance is as good as ever.
Besides the semi-windup of eight
rounds between Steve Welch. the "Ari-
IONA Kid" who is funny looking but a
serious proposition to fight, and Sam
Rico, tough San Antonio welterweight,
and the six-round curtain-raiser be-
tween Jack Tolar and Army Kid Jack,
welters. a special six-round bout has
been arranged to test the mettle of
left-handed Kid Gilbert, bantamweight.
Gilbert will tackle none other than

One of Our Best Left Arms
Is George CLANCY and the Pode Limb That Has Put n to Sleep

George CLANCY of Baltimore has a
left arm. Los of folks have. Rut
Georges left arm is one of the best
left arms in the business-any bust
ness.
A six-inch movement Of that left
arm is generally worth from $500
to $4,000. Think of it!
Clancy is q fighter, a lightweight
resurrected from the pusilistic scrap
heap by that clever little handler,
Sammy Harris of Baltimore.
Clancy started life as bantam
weight and did well. He got into
the featherweight class and tackled
Johnny Kilbane Of Cleveland. He
was out in jiffy.
CLANCY had plenty. of money then
and life was one sweet song. Little
of the singing was done around the
training camp. So the fortune went
and likewise did CLANCY.
Harris got him then, started him
going as a lightweight and a bunch
of knockouts soon won back his old

Must Be Another Bout.
Nv FAIRPLAl,

Copyright by The San Antonio Light.
New York, FEB. 11.-There will un-
questioaably be another bout in the
very near future between Carl Tire
maine and Johnny Curtin. The Madi-
son Square Garden management will
make every effort TO match the two
bantamS, according TO Tex Rick
ards assertions today, following Fri
days scrap, which ended in n decision
to Trcmaine.
The question as TO whether the
blow that Tremaine landed on Cur
tins body in the sixth round of Fri
days scrap really was a foul or not
probably will remain unanswered
longer than the reply to the we'll
known query. How old is Ann:"
OF those of us who sat close TO the
ring for the express purpose of tell
ing the public about the battle, the
majority thought the blow was dan
gerously low. As TO whether it was
an actual foul. the count today is 30
30. The writer believes the blow was
foul, that it was struck unintentiOn-
ally, that for a moment Johnny actu-
ally was in very great pain, but that
the referee, having declared it not to
have been a foul, Curtin was physic-
ally able to have returned at n nine
count and could have given mighty
good account of himself thereafter,
had be been so inclined.
1t developed today that the ref
eree's decision that a foul had not
been committed was given against the
belief of Judges Tommy Shortell and
Kid Mcfarland. that the blow was
foul.
The Garden was jammed. 1926

Tremaine got SG7S453. If the blow
had been declared foul he would
