EACH 4SURE' OF WIN
IN RING At GARDEN
Clever Boxers Clash Over
10-Round Route-Bout to
Be Punch VS.. Speed.
BY FAIR PLAY,

NEW YORK, March 9-Jimmy
Slattery and James j. Braddock, the
fastest left hand in the racket versus
the hardest right cross, is the dish Tom
McArdle Is serving up to the fans who
patronize the Madison Square Garden
for their favorite sport Monday evening.
The bout is billed for ten rounds TAX
ing the word of the principals, the fight
VIII end long before that number IS
reached.
Braddock is just bubbling over with
confidence. His knockout of Tuffy
Griffith and knockdown of Leo Lomski,
who was awarded the official verdict,
nave given the Jersey boy the idea that
ne can whip any man his weight in
the world and when he puts on little
more weight he intends to go after the
heavyweight title.
No one questions the heft of Brad
docks punch. The only thing that held
him from reaching the heights long be-
fore this was his apparent DELIBERATE
ness in setting for blow. He followed
his man around the ring with right
hand cooked and pretty nearly gave his
admirers heart failure waiting for him
to turn it loose. Not so now; Braddock
turns the punch loose at the least sign
OF an opening and this has spelled his
success.
In Slattery, Braddock is meeting the
most deceptive man in the ring. Arms
dangling at his sides, Slithering around
with ghostlike vagueness, Stats is the
hardest man in the ring to hit with
solid blow. Many have tried and but
for the wild swings Of Dave Shade and
Paul Berlenbach which laid Jimmy low,
Stats has escaped without a mark
1t takes speedy puncher to hit Stat
terry and Braddock Is not that. If Stat
terry fights anywhere near the form he
showed against Jack Delaney or Tommy
Loughran, he should win from Brad
dock without any trouble. But If
Jimmy attempts to swap blows with the
Jerseyite, Buffalo fans will go in mourn
ing

L. Gassoway officiating.
The groom is popular young
bum who hasn't done a lick Of work

Sioux Indian, sucks cigarettes in Sc
cret, and drinks mean corn liquor
when she is out joy-riding in her
dads car at night. Shit doesn't know
how to cock sew or keep house
The house was newly plastered for
the wedding and the exterior newly
painted, thus appropriately carrying
out the decorative scheme, for the
groom was newly plastercd, also, and
the bride newly painted.
The groom wore rented dinner
suit over athletic underwear of imita-
ton silk. His pants were held up by
pale green suspenders. His number
eight patent leather shoes matched
his state in tightness and harmonized
nicely with the axle-grease polish Of
his hair. In addition to his jag ne
carried pocket knife, a bunch OF
keys, dun for the ring and his usual
look of imbecility.
The bride wore some kind of white
thing that left most Of her legs
sticking out at one end and her bony
upper end sticking out at the other.
The young people will make their
home with the brides parents
which means they will sponge on the
old man until he dies and then she
will take in washing.
The happy couple anticipates
great event in about five months.
Postscript: This may be the last
issue of The Tribune, but my life
ambition has been to write up one
wedding and tell the unvarnished
truth. Now that it is done, death can
have no sting.
