October 9 at Olympia, will arrive
here Friday to begin training,
matchmaker Nick Londes revealed
today.
Ranked among the first 10 con-
tenders for the worlds title by
virtue of his victory over ex-

A main-eventer who has scored
triumphs over such performers as
Sammy Secret, Willie Joyce,
George Nyberg and Harvey Dubs,
Tony is a ring-wise performer

best to win. This will be only the
fourth main event for Edgar, who
still is in the early stages of his
career.
The bout is scheduled for 10
rounds and is eo-featured with

By Brooklyn Il,
Lions Next-Foe
BY CLAYTON HEPLER

One of the national professional
league teams least affected by the
war and its resultant drain on
manpower is the Brooklyn eleven
which plays the Lions Sunday at
Briggs Stadium.
Only three players .are gone
from the lineup which started
against Detroit last year at Ebbets
Field and went on 10 knock out
"a 14-7 victory.
Chief among the absent, of
course, is Ace Parker, pass-throw-
ing halfback who also doubled in
baseball. His loss was as great
as that of DR.. John Balm (Jock)
Sutherland, who now is in the
service of his country.
