AMERICAN LEGION TO STAGE BOXING SHOW John Tholmer, Camp Eunston Boxing Instructor, to Meet Art Davis, the “Omaha Long Boy,” in Six-Round Bout Friday Night. The Roosevelt post of the American Legion, local Colored branch, has started a membership drive by which they hope to enroll every Colored ser vice man in Douglas county within the next ten days. On Friday evening, beginning at 8:30 o’clock,-sit their clubiooms, Twen ty-fourth and Burdette streets, a spe cial program will be rendered in con nection with the meeting. Several events are on the card, the main one of which will be the heavy weight mill between John Tholmer, who recently came here from Camp Funston, where he was in charge of the physical training of the Colored troops, and Art Davis. Mr. Tholmer has had wide experience in connection with the boxing game. For over twelve years he was actively engaged in pugilism as a professional. Still a young man and physically sound he can yet give a good account of him self. "Long Boy,” his opponent, is well known around these parts, having done quite a deal of boxing here and j in Missouri. He was a member of the 372d regiment of the Ninety-third di vision. This affair, which will include sev eral preliminaries, is free, the only re quirement being that one be a service man. Your American Legion button is your admission ticket. N. A. A. C. P.
