Dundee bought Furr's contract after
Flighty Phil's great stand against

In his only appearance under Dundee,
the tall Foggy Bottom lad fought the

FORE or less established as an
M up-and coming welterweight,
wv Flighty Phil Furr takes time
of from the labors of trying
to win national recognition tonight
to make his second defense of the

Silas. transplanted Brooklyn battler,
whose challenge Strikingly parallels
Furr's own def to BroWen late last
Summer. The lanky kid who knocked
out Bowen then was raw preliminary
boy, new to the business of fighting
as a main-eventer. Silas is more pol
ished than was Furr eight months ago,
but he, too, is stepping from the pre-
liminaries for wind-up role.
An inconspicuous figure for several
months, Silas suddenly blossomed
forth as a prospective main-eventer
recently with a string Of victories
climaxed by smashing triumph over
Furr's former stablemate, Roddy Davis.
Silas' record shows decisions over
Jimmy Reed. Tommy BaShara and
Mickey Lands, a two-round knockout
over Petey Bevans, draw with Petey

Despite the record and the new

Silas will be a distinct underdog to-

quoted on Furr today. and they prom
