 With l3 years Of professional boxing and 25o contests behind him. the "windmill" is the favor ite. Flowers has fought many of the leading men Of inc class and he has been exceptionally success ful, but close followers of the game believe that Grcb's two-hand at- tack, one ot the swiltest the ring has ever known, will cut down the Tiger.
 In 1923 Greb gained his cham pionship by beating the Italian American, Johnny Wilson, and three times he has defended it Of ficially, once in a return bout with Wilson, against tho Engishman. Tod Moore, the last summer against the welterweight king, Mickey Walker.
 Both men train by fighting and recently Greb had six conflicts in as many weeks. Flowers came 10 New York last winter and showed brilliantly on several occasions but finally encountered his master in the light heavyweight from Bridge port, Conn. Jack Delaney who Knocked out the negro twice. The semi-fnal tonight will find K. 0. Phil Kaplan of New York opposing Mickey Rockson. a vel ter from the Pacific slope. Mickey Trayers of New Haven.

Ruel last season was generally re- garded as the most valuable, if not the best, catcher in the American league. He had good year at the bat, was in most every game and handled the cratic Washington pitching staff superbly.
 To say that Tate, third string catcher on the club, will replace Ruel makes it seem as if Griffith is becoming childish.
