Norman Travis, Belleville middleweight: Lew Terry, South Side lightweight: Sammy Schnemann, a local featherweight. and "Woo" Stonum, the Kennett. lightweight, are among the boxers who have tentatively accepted prelim matches.

Arrangements have also been made for Harry Ethington and Kid Burns to conclude their preparatory work at the local gym.

Hornsby, however, explained that these would-be purchasers declined to go as high as $105 a Share. arid Hornsby declares he will remain, adamant in demanding this figure. President John A.
