Condition is nearly everything in an amateur fight Cleverness counts but it does not count as much ts being' able to stand the gaff Y'ou have the chance to perhaps win a fortune in the prize ring "What are you going to do with it? 0 0 0 Vernon Arena Is Dark Tonight Vernon is dark tonight The next fights will he held July It Doyle has been putting on some good scraps lately Some of the northern boys have felt that theyr could hippodrome their battles but in every case the fans have given them the royal Doyle has tried hard to please the fans in his offerings The series of Willie Robinson fights has been mighty good The old fistic emporium is a popular place these summer day's 0 Mad Kewpie a Popular Fighter Few fighters in the past year have made the hit at Vernon that good old Salinas Jack Robinson made Salinas Jack from the time he first entered the Vernon ring has always had the house with him The fight fans like the way he tears into an opponent they like his hearty good nature and they like the rugged way' in which he absorbs punishment The corpulent kewpie has been taking a rest but according to Matchmaker Wadhams he will be back in these parts again before long 0 fi 0 Sailors Are Off On a Cruise The New Mexico has sailed and numerous sailors have disappeared from the fight bill at Vernon Two of the fighting gobs made a decided hit namely Sailor Walter and Sailor Kramer The former of these won the good will of the fans in his ring debut when he proved himself to be a hard fighter and a willing boxer He had much to learn in the way of ring craft and cleverness but lie packed a wicked punch and a desire to fight Kramer always made a good appearance at Vernon Whenever his name appeared on the fight card the fans were assured of a fast bout The sailors will te missed while on their cruise Q- Cliff Jordan Was a Bit Stale Cliff Jordon one of the gamest middle weights ever appearing at Vernon is fighting again Cliff made seven different kinds of a hit in his battles with various men of his weight a few months ago He then went stale and wrent so badly stale that the fans would not stand for his appearance in the ring Cliff needed a good rest more than anything else When he was right there were but few boys could hold their own with the foxy old veteran and his fights were practically classics But he slipped his punches began to lack steam and1 he fought in a half-hearted wav Even the bestof them go stale and need a layrnff 0 Fred Young a Promising Comer Fred Young is one of the most promising of the Vertpn youngsters He has improved in every appearance and won his diploma a week ago when he knocked Frankie Wayne out in the first round of their go first appearance at Vernon was pretty but he had a fighting heart and the fans gave him a good hand from the very first Soon if fie is welt taken care of he will be getting up toward the semi-windup class Of course he still has a great deal to learn He carries a good punch and although he is not a second Benny Leonard when it comes to cleverness Young has the makings of a good fighter in him 0 0 0 Mansell Is Not Rugged Enough Harry Mansell lost a decision to Kid Mende last week Mansell is a great little boxer but he is too frail to ever get very far He is willing and he tears into an opponent in splendid fashion but hardly rugged enough to hold his own with our bad men Of course he gave away considerable weight when he fought Mende but even then with hLs cleverness he should have protected himself But forget this Mende is not a second rater by a long shot Mende is a great little fighter and it is never a disgrace to lose to a man of his ty'pe 0 0 0 Freak Pitching Ban Hits Hard TThe ban on freak pitching is hitting some of the boys harder than they expected and so are some of the 39-0 sluggers Hod Eller and Slim Bailee are in open rebellion against the powers that be Eller says that he is of no use to the Reds unless he uses his and that the next time he is called on to
