nesday f orenopft the party will come
to Plattsmouth.
Durins: his stay here, Marples aia
a little shadow boxing at the Eagles
hall, and would have put on tne
gloves, but for inability to find a
local boxer to work with mm.
Th workout was witnessed by a
eood number of local fight fans who
declare Marples looks to be in good
condition for Wednesday night s
ten round mill.
Andv Schmader is working out
daily at his home in Louisville and
was never in better condition berore.
He, too, will arrive here Wednesday
forenoon, accompanied by his broth-

preliminaries, and a large delegation
of Louisville fight fans.
If the roads continue good, in
dications point to a capacity house,
and for this reason the Legion asks
the Plattsmouth people to buy their
seats early, instead of at the last
minute, so that provision can be
made to seat an additional 200 if the'
interest warrants.
The preliminary men have posted
forfeits for their appearance and it
looks as though the entire show will
be put over without a single disap
pointment. i-l 1 1 1 !' 1 I I I I M " I M ? M 11 H
