if John (Raver) Benjamin and A1
Ketchol, ,of Bridgeport, come together
the fans can make up their minds tbntt
there will be some light. Both ofI
these men are known to Norwalki
fans, the latter having fought Benja- ‘
min on one tor met occasion in South
Notwalk, before the Twin City Athl
Ietic Club, while RaIer is deal to the:
hearts of all. Since his defeat at
the hands of Dodo Muller, Ketchel has
met Red Jewell and given him a ter-
rible beating. showing that he is still
in the gamc. Raver also fought Jew-
ell on ,two occasions and in neither
did he make much impression on the
Park City lad. in his fight with Kei-
chel, opinion is divided, some saying
that Raver shaded the Bridgeporteri
while others claim the other way,
neither side. wishing to say that one
or the other administered a decisive
defeat, however. This bout should be
decisive, on way or the other, and if}
either of the boys have it in them, it
probably will be.

 

 

Monday night the Sixth Company

feat the state champions, Siamtotd

Hope, proved to be too much for Sav-
nsky at the Winnipnuk Sooial club
bOxing exhibition last night, the lat-
ter lying down in the first round at,
what the spectators look for a fake!
knockout. Rucker did some slashing
work for a few seconds and suddenly
while the men were engaged in a far-
rical wrestling exhibition, Sunasky,
dropped to the floor and remainedE
there for the count.

The bouts were refcteed in ice Cor
coran and with the exception of the
Rachel Satasky light were as good?
as have ever been seen in The Nor- '
walks. Tile boys IIeIe eIenLI match
ed and put up fast, clean exhibitions
throughout.

The first: bout was between Youngi
Silk andloung Hurts. The lattcri
shaded Silk, although some maintain
that the. light was a draw.

Nick Mandell proved too much for
Buck Reynolds in the second bout,

, Reynolds having enough in the fifth.

Young Kunzy, of SOIIth Norwalk
and Mike Kelley, of Winnipauk. put
up a prime good exhibition, Kunzy
having a shade the better of the ar-
gument.
