SQUIBS OF SPORTS
By Hamlet "Kid" Rowe


The amateur boxing card at Elks'
Hall Monday evening, May 81, was
very amusing as well as interesting
in the main event there were some
very interesting moments, especially
during the terrific rounds when Ben
ME King would send Warren Breed
ing to the canvas with hard right
crosses. In the second round Breed
ing had King out on his feet, but did
not have the strength to put over the
knockout. King recovered during the
rest period and came back in the
third and final round and gave Breed
ing the worst of the argument. With
proper training we believe that Breed
ing can beat King, as he is the pos
SCISSOR of . hard right
The other bouts were as follows:
Billie Born beat Kid Hayward, Kid Bob
was defeated by Kid Bannon, Bat
ting Lewis and Eddie White fought a
very interesting draw. Battling Sikh,
Jr., demonstrated his superiority
over George Jackson. In this bout
Ski kept the crowd in an uproar over
~ his antics and peculiar style of mill
ing. Sikh rivals his namesake as a
ring clown. Promoter Eddie L. Boyd
and Matchmaker J. Harry Palmer,
Jr., arranged the card which met the
popular approval of those present.
