Michigan City Ind, July S,-Tht boxing contests between Harry Greb worlds middleweight champion, and Young strbling, Macon, Ga, light heavyweight and Abe Attell Goldstein worlds bantamweight ,itlist and Con- nie Curry of Sioux City Iowa. sehed- uled here tomorrow, have been in. definitely postponed.
 Mayor ". r. (. Dall gave q small pox quarantine in Michigan ss the reason for requesting the postpone ment laet night, although Dr. George II. Ramsey, deputy state health com missioner of Michigan, from Lansing declared there was no quarantine in effect, one against travelling circuses and carnivals having been lifted last Monday.
 Limitations in Chicago that dis appointing advance sale of seats might have had something to do With the postponement were denied by Frank Parker, associated with Joe Coffcy and Floyd Fitzsimmons in the promo ton of the contests. Parker said he intended to try to persuade Greb and Stribling to stay in Chicago until the bout could be staged.
 The promoters and principals meet today to determine when the bout may be held. Mayor Dall in his let ter to the promoters said the contests

VILLA WINS BY K. 0,
FIyweight Champion Starts Fast and Knocks Out Harry Catena in Fifth Round of Their Fight.

New York, July S.--Pancho Nilla, flyweight champion of the world, knocked out Harry Catena in the fifth round of scheduled 12-round bout last night.
 The knockout came one minute and ! seconds after the start of the nth round. Villa had already floored Ca tena twice in that round and on the challenger's third visit to the canvas his seconds threw in the towel. The champion also floored Catena in the fourth round, the latter taking a count of seven.
 Catena was groggy when he finish ed the fourth pound, having barely managed to stay on his feet. Coming up for the fifth he provided a ready target for the champions powerful rights and lefts. Villa sent a hard left to the jaw which proved to be the finish of Catena.
 Villa started after his adversary at the opening gong aud those at the rinsside knew it was only question of a few rounds when Catena would fall. Not once was the fyweight crown in danger.

--,
 Paris, July $.-The field event per formers of the American Olympic team, after a slow start, are round . ing into condition which augurs well for their chances of victory in the championships next week. The shot putters, hammer and discus throwers particularly have been show ing excellent form under the tutelage of Walter Christie. head field coach.
 r. D. Tootell and NJ. J. McGrath, youngster and veteran, are rivals for the hammer, and either is likely to triumph in the Olympics. Both dur ing the workout at Rocquencourt this which is not far from Pat Ryan's world record.
 The three shot-putting aces, Ralph Hills, Glenn Hartranft and Clarence Houser, have recorded losses of slightly more than 30 feet, also close to the worlds mark, and promise to be ripe for a terrific battle for Olym- pic honors with the two Finnish stars Torpo, who is credited with 50 feet, and V. Porhoa, who finished we'll up in this event at Antwerp. Hills, the Princeton giant, is the most consis- tent of the Americans and seems in the best shape of his career.
 Hartranft and Houser have also been heaving the discus we'll over 140 feet, as have T. J. Lieb and Augustus Pope, and the Yankees are confident that this quartet will clean up. L. B Preister, with several losses close tc 200 feet, appears to be the best of the jarelin thRwers just now. !
 J. K. Brdoker and Ralph Spearow are showing Nine pole vault form and Do Hart Hubbard, while taking nc risks in jumping. is declared to be in condition to make a formidable bid for double honors in the broad jump and hop, step and jump.
