(Continued from Page One)

Before his fight here earlier this
month, Cussans promised to
ziv2 him another chance if he
showed up well and Friday~s
match with Kitty is his reward.

Taylor will be making his

~first appearance here since early

this summer. In this bout the
ianky battler showed real promise. In Gallo, Taylor will meet
a hard punching battler.

in Torres, Leslie is matched
against a boy that is expected to
Zive him a good d2al of trouble
fez 10 rounds. Torres, who has
elready met some of the best
in the featherweight division, is
noth an able boxer and a stiff
puncher. As a result, Les Krell,
aeslie~s manager, is expected to
rend the Flint Bomber out to
fight a ~more careful fight than
that he put up against Willie
Anderson in his last match here.
The Flint boy, however, will be
guun:ng for his seventh knock-.
out if the opportunity presents
itself.

Another fight of real interest
to Flint fans will send Clem
Custer against Horace Langley
in the featherweight class. The
boys fought here earlier in the
season with Custer taking a
| disputed decision. Since then; Custer has been showing exceptional ability, winning his last
Start against Johnrry Gaudes of
Milwaukee, who is classed as
strictly a main event fighter.
~In the other six round match,
F~romoter Cussans has signed Eduardo Sarraotos of Mexico City
to meet Frank Gerrard of To~edo. They are featherweights.

Tickets for the show will be

on séle until late Friday afternoon at St. John Street Pharma

Looking. at the Negro bloc,

Mr. McKenzie was speaking
better than he knew, for that
