Boxing Notes
(By “Left Jab.”) Opinion on the big professional fig Tit to take place in the Drill hall to-night between Don. Glengarry and Stan. Smith is pretty evenly divided. The contestants in every single department of the boxing game arc very, very evenly matched and it would appear to be a somewhat difficult matter to predict the winner. It should be a slashing contest from the clarion call to battle, a grim, determined struggle for fistic supremacy, fierce, unrelenting, and waged with deadly earnestness. Fireworks will be fizzling from the moment the timekeeper calls: “ Seconds out of the ring! ” and I am already visualising the excited countenances of the fans and in fancy hearing their wild and frenzied cries as they urge their respective fancies to still more violent and desperate effort to gain the mastery. It will be a spectacular contest. The supporting animosities are exceptionally good, several of the belligerents being star performers. A great programme.
