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.

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.

Put the Boy and Girl In the
Children's Chautauqua
IT will be the brightest, happiest week of
their lives. It will expand their knowl
edge. 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.
