portant glove lights will be decided
this week both in this country null
abroad. The twenty round battle be-
tween Bombardier Wells, English
heavyweight champion, and Georges
Carpentior, the French title holder, is
scheduled for tonight at. the National
Sporting Hub,’ London. Although
both have been knockud out, Wells by
Al Palzer and Clunboat Smith, and Car-
pentier by Frank Klaus and Bill Pair
kc, there is much rivalry because
lWellB claims that he was ill when
Carpentier stbpped him nearly a year
ago in four rounds. They will tight
for an $18,000 purse.
Another important event tonight is
a ten round bout. in Milwaukee be-
tween i’nckcy _I.Vlci«‘arlund and Jack
iBritton, the . rival Chicago light-
M'eiglits. The weight is 137 at 4 o’clock,
which is the same that governed their
butlc in the Garden last spring when
McFarland won by 0. wide margin.
Britton was scared when he entered
the ring on that occasion and Packey
used him for a pluything. Britten says
he'ss not. be afraid or rattled this
time, but that doesn’t after the fact.
that McFarland yesterday was a 3 to
1 favorite.
Tomorrow night. Fireman Jim Flynn.
who hasn't. boxed here since Gunboat
Smith stopped him last. summer, will
try to redeem himself in a combat
with Battling Levinsky at. the Atlan-
tic Garden A. C. This LevinSky per
son is a light heavyweight who is
abbvo the average as a boxer and a
puncher, but he struck a snag last
week when he was busted in a bout
at Brown's Gymnasium by Al Weinort
of Orange. N. .I., hitherto unknown.
For that reason Flynn believes he will
beat Lovinsky. The fireman avill car-
ry about 180 pounds, while his oppo-
nent will weigh under 170.
