It is a long time now since "Jerry" lias played baseball regularly but he has always been greatly inter- ested in the game and has done a lot to keep Portsmouth on the baseball map. He is one of the charter mem- bers of the Sunset League association and has always been an ardent work-- er for the success of the league. One could count the number of games he has missed since the league was in- slitiited, on his fingers. The matchmaker of the Belleview A. has tied up'Gunhoat Jack, the col- ored flash for a ten round bout at Freemans' Hall, "September 9.

The other principal in the feature not been secured yet as the matchmaker is looking them over carefully in order to get someone who will give the colored boy the battle of his life. There will also be some fine preliminaries on the card and the semi-final will also be a big drawing card.
