Bee Bee Washington now aims
at a double target, his fight next
Monday night against Ruben Shank

bihty OF q return match against
Aaron Perry, who chilled Two Bees

The chance OF a return arose

gested that fight that drew $54,0 ,0OG
earlier this summer and supplied
plenty Of action should be put on

Garsh indicated his willingness to

provided Washington beats Shank
and that Perry in the meanwhile

which name" fighter Garsh has in
mind as Perrys next opponent he
wouldn't say.
First, however. Washington must
get over that Shank hurdle, and
Ruben is no pushover despite his
recent and unexpected loss to Ossie
Harris. His record shows him as
somewhat better than the string of
fighters Bee Bee knocked of with
pleasing regularity last winter, about
the best being his win over Henry

was supposed the water was shallow,
so he could beach the fish. Upon

he went into a hole something over
