f Round GlMmpoiesMp Go Ji For the bantamweight title of Colo. (11 Abe Pollock) In ray opinion the Alliance fans and visitors to the Stock growers' Convention at Alliance, will see one of the greatest bantam weight battles on the night of June 19th, when Earl ruryear and Harry (Kiscus) Lub meet for twelve rounds, that was ever staged In the West and as the bantam weight title for the state of Colorado Is at stake, that alone will be a great incentive for the boys to deliver the goods. There never were two boys In any more deadly earnest, and in case one is returned a winner, he will be on his way to the big title now held by Kid Williams of Baltimore. They have fought two furious draws In Denver, one at the Colorado Athletic Club of eight rounds, which saved the show, as the main event between Dick Gilbert and Mike Shubert only lasted two rounds, and everybody went home well satisfied, with Pur year and Lub's performance, which was the whole show. Again, at the Stockyard Stadium Johnny Kllbane, featherweight champion of the world and Benny Chaves wound up their business In the second round and these two whirlwinds actually stood the spectators on their seats howling like Indians every second In eight rounds of the fastest, slambang glove work ever seen In Denver. This bout saved the main event, which was too short, and gave everyone a good run for his money. There Isn't a boy in the bantam weight class who has got anything on either one outside of the champion, Johnny Williams, and he would have his hands full unless the battle was a long distance affair, as the boys have never gone over the longer route. This match really looks better as a drawing card than the Williams and Coulon affair that recently took place at Los Angeles, where the prices ranged from (2.00 to 17.50. Phelea Opera House v Mill! 1 IP PRINCIPALS: EARL PURYEAR vs. HARRY "Kiscus" LUB Referee: Abe Pollock, of Denver Weighing in at 3 o'clock on day of match. Stipulat ed weight, 118 pounds TICKETS $1.00, $1.50 and $2.00 On Sale at Holsten's Drug Store From the Denver News, June 16: i Ever since winning the amateur title of the D. A. C, Puryear one year and Lub the next, it has been an even break every time they have met In the ring, and there are two draws to fight off. The Alliance battle will be the saw-off and the boys are getting in the best possible shape for what is going to be the hottest session ever seen In that part of the country, and the bout will be classy enough to stage any place, Vernon or Milwau kee not barred. At the C. A. C, they fought a fur ious eight-round draw and made the biggest hit of the season, and again at Kllbane-Chaves contest they put up another slam-bang battle of six rounds that had the fans standing on their seats. There isn't much difference be tween them and both have fought and licked the same men, so each is the stumbling block of the other on their way to the big-game circuit, and the state title is the main incen tive for them to pull the best they have in their bag of tricks, as the Al liance bout is the jumping off place. This time the fans of the Nebraska town will have a chance to see them in a real battle over the longer route, which will show up their stay ing qualities, as it has been a hard matter to get a correct line on this part of their makeup In short bouts. There has been much Interest aroused among the Denver fans over the coming bout and there will be a few from Denver at the ringside when the gong starts the boys on their long grind. The weight of 118 pounds at 3 o'clock will bring them into the ring strong and ready to put in their hardest raps and I look for a great battle. I Meet at Burlington Hotel Traveling men who will take part In the parade Saturday morning are requested to meet at the Burlington Hotel at 9: SO o'clock.

It will start them thinking in the right direction. The Children's Chautauqua has two big aims: To develop the habit of healthful recre ation in boys and girls; to teach them how to play to the best advantage to do away with all the elements of roughness on the play ground. And its second big aim is to interest boys and girls in birds. Birds! What are they? Every one knows what birds are. But does every one know that the business of raising corn and wheat and all agricultural crops is dependent upon the birds? That the damage to the agricultural interests of the country last year from insects amounted to more money than was spent for public education? Birds get the insects. We are going to show boys and girls how to care for birds. How to protectthemand feed and shelter them. We want every boy and girl to know their valae. In short, to know all about birds. It will be lots of fun. Games, story telling and many things of that sort will be a feature of the Children's Chautauqua A wainta director ens' an ethletic nu will look titer U boys n4 girls. Cen't you s enough in that for year boy or girl tkeee glL hot leys? If so. get a ChtuUuqu hum ticket ana give them tkesa tsVtntsgss tktt cost m little sag are worth so much.
