LOCAL FANS ARE
SPECIALIZING ON
SCHEDULED BOUT
JAcKsoN-NEBo SCRAP BOOK.
ED TO TAKE PLACE JUNE
II: ATTRACTS WIDE AT
TENTIoN IN THIS CITY
By d i. MILAN

The fight fans have already be-
gun basing their opinion on the
coming boxing contest between
jackson, the slugger. and John
Nebo, the boxer. which is to take
place on June the IA, the same
night that Max Baer will crawl
through the ropes in Madison
Square Garden Bowl in New York
City in great hopes of lifting the
heavyweight crown from the man
tmountain Camera - bring back
the title to this eopntfy and give
the world d real champion and the
best SINCE theldaEs of Jack Dennp-
sey.
Some Of our fans have come to
the conclusion that Nebo. now
making his home in Miami. down
and out and going hungry, is COM
ing down to Key West to enter the
ring against Willie Jackson and
take couple of socks on the chin,
then lay down before his home
town admirers. This writer being
we'll acquainted with all local
fighters, will say frankly that this
laying down business is not in the
blood of the Nebos, John, like his
brother. Pete, will absorb punish
ment as long as he can stand on
his hoofs. rather than lay down.
According to news received here
from the Magic City. the Spanish
battler is hard at work in the Mi
ami Beach gymnasium.
Different Jackson
Nebo will find different Jack
SON when he crawls through the
roped arena in the Athletic Club
next Thursday night--a stronger.
better boxer and a well trained
body. Willie, claimed by his old
sparring mate, Young Fernandez,
to be hitting harder than ever and
timing his blows with unuyual care,
will enter the ring with the odds
in his favor to put his conqueror
out in less than six rounds.
A bout which gives promise of
nearing the main event in action
and excitement is the semi-final
in which two club fighters have
been matched to battle eight
rounds. in the persons of Young
Fernandez and Bobby Waugh. a
pair of hard hitting young veter-
ans. Waugh, sore at Fernandez
because the latter made monkey
of him in bout that was suppos-
ed to have been an exhibition at
DeWitts arena last week, welcom-
ed the opportunity to meet Fer
nandez so that he may show the
former truck driver what a real
fight is like.
Both of the boys can sock like
nobody's business and it won't be
surprising If one of the two get a
knock out before the bout reaches
| the fourth or fifth round.
Three other preliminary bouts
win complete the card.

The Perry's Skipper
James Mackey Lewis, the smil-
ing "Tejano" from the Lone Star
State, who commands the U. S. S.
Perry, Destroyer $40. now in port,

the Yangtsze River in 1916 and
1917. where he was serving on
board the old Spanish gunboat
Quiros at the time of our declara-
ton of war with Germany. China,
being neutral, ordered the
American warships to get out or
be informed. The Quiros, being
600 miles behind China's coast
range, could not get out--and
James Mackey Lewis finished up
his first tour of duty in China as
an interned prisoner of war" at
Shanghai. In August, 1917, China
entered the war. and the informed
Americans were released. Lewis
was ordered home, and assigned
to a new destroyer. the u. S. S.

troopships.
On his second tour of duty in

command Of the American gun
boat Samar, which was followed
by command Of the large Russian

stok. Siberia.

1915. Other tours Of service have
been on the U. s. S. Tennessee,
the tanker Guyana, at Puaget
Sound. at the Naval Academy. and
at the Naval Recruiting Station at
