Red Herring and Jack Dillon Will Appear On Athletic
 Program Monday

The Birmingham Athletic clubs wrestling carnival and athletic show is just few days away, and according to the officials there has never been as much interest in advance of a show as has been the case in the coming at traction. The gigantic sport program will be unwound before grappling fans Monday night, when Tom Lacey and Homer Smiles top the card In a TO- round wrestling go, and Kid Lott clashes with good opponent in six round affair.
 Red Herring, the slugging red-head, who now calls Mississippi his home, has sworn off farm life for several months now. It was thought that Red would do this just as soon as blowing time got around, and just as soon as it was nearing the time for the plant ing of crops. Red hibernated on the farm all winter when there was noth- ing to do, but sit around and waited for spring. Yet, when the robins got chorus. Red became actively engaged in the manly art again.
 His first affair was in Birmingham some two weeks ago when he met Young Jack Dillon in one of the most sensational bouts ever staged here. Following that hectic setto he jour- neyed over to Little Rock, where he attached another scalp, getting the best of Frankie Tucker. Following that ar- gument Red came back to Birmingham and started intensive training for his return go with Dillon here Monday night.
 Dillon, one of the most popular new corners ever to show his wares in Bir- mingham, is slated to arrive in town some time today. There are many who think that he bested Red in the other scrap, but the referee declared a draw. He is so confident that he can prove to fandom that he Is Reds master that he readily agreed for the return match, which will be staged Monday night.
 Anticipating record crowd for this big show, the B. A. c. officials am nounce that they are installing new seats to take care of the enthusiasts who want to see these two boys get together again, and who also want to witness the feature grappling bouts of the evening
