Carter and Fernandez
To Box July 24th

The prospect of boxing contest
between Leslie (Wild Cat) Carter.
known all over the United States
and in other countries as '"The Dlae
Streak of the Northwest" ane Ig-
nacio Fernandez, the sprightly Fill
pino champion whom Frank Chur-
chill maintains is the greatest
featherweight in the game, is loom
ing and the bout may be made.
Fernandez, according to those who
witnessed his ten round draw battle
with Richie King at Portland the
other night, had King out on his feet
at the end of the seventh round and
the two finished in what was de-
scribed as the most sensational and
thrilling battle ever staged in Port
land It was regular whirlwind
and the Filipino had slight shade
the better of the going.
Joe Waterman, who manages
King, admitted after the bout that
King was out when he finished that
seventh round. 'Poor Richie didn't
know Just where he was and the
only thing that kept him in there
was his real gameness.
Carter is getting himself in shape.
He is eager to box some one but his
handlers are a bit timid about ac-
cepting the match with Fernandez
because of the fact that the great
colored battler is yet too young to be
steered against top notchers. !:
must be recalled that Fernandez
knocked out Abe Attell Goldstein,
one of the best in the game on his
first visit to the east, and it was just
recently that he went Is fast and
hard fought rounds with Tony Can
zaneri. the worlds featherweight
champion. So if it is to be match
between Fernandez and Carter it
can be seen that the Filipino is per-
haps the best boy that the Wild Cat
has been called upon to meet.
