duty.
Ward, a coast guard seaman

tomorrow night when he had
planned to step into the ring for
a 10-round battle with Key

Geeche will be spotting the

but the power in his Wallop is
considered likely to overcome the
weight difference Dyes is I'M

Philadelphia and Promoter Car
bonell has had him in training
here as a measure of insurance
against what happened to Ward.
Johnnie Tadalock, light-heavy-

U.S.S. Herbert in the semi-final
to provide fans here with their
first fight Of the season in which
the participants are above the

Both have appeared in fights
at the naval station and both are
said to be hard hitters. Their
scrap at the arena is their first
outside the navy yard.
Carbonell has not announced
which of his string of amateurs
will be paired in the prelimin-
aries. The boys are working out
daily at the Centre Asturiano

NAVAL STATION TEAM WON
AGAIN LAST NIGHT TO

/ The crack boWlers of Key West
Naval Station handed the team
from the Army Post its third
straight defeat last night, 2235
to 2O21.
Results Of the latest match
between the clubs threw the Sc
ries into a tie with a trio of vic
tories each.
At the outset Army seemed
well on its way to undisputed
domination of the series, easily
downing the Sailors in the first
three matches. Then, unexpect-
eddy the navy boWlers hit their
striGe and haven't been checked
to date.
The teams were in fine form
last night, fighting desperately in
each game. A playoff of the tie
will be held Monday evening of
next week at the Posts bowling
alley.
A spectator at the last match
accounted for the Army's defeat
in this candid remark: The Navy
stole the Soldiers oats. Captain
of the Doughbcys, overhearing
the statement, pooh-poohed the
idea, explaining his boys simply
lacked practice.
Monday night the players
should be warmed up" and ready
