Verne Morris and Battling Murphy, Lightweights,
Are Booked for the 10-Round Semi-Windup—
Advance Sale of Tickets Indicates
Large House Tonight.
WILL Homer Smith prove to he a "set-up" for Luis Angel Firpo tonight?
Not according to Homer and his manager, ,!»e Woodman, and also
Mrs. Ilomer.
Ilomer believes lie's going to outpoint “Dead Pan Ia>oie.”
“I’ve had a lot of experience in the ring," declares Smith. "I’ve had
a hundred fights more than Firpo. I’m a better boxer. I've got a better left
(land. He’s never fought a fighter of my type. It has been my experience
that I fight better with a bigger man than with a smaller fighter. I think
by fighting the proper kind of fight anil using my superior left hand I ran
keep Firpo from hurting me. I have before me the opportunity of a life
time. I intend to make the best of it that I ran.”
That's outer s story and he says,
'he’ll stock to It. Woodman, Smith’s
manager, sayn he has seen Firpo
fight half it dozen times and that he
believes his battler has a chance.
And of couprse Mrs. Smith is quite
confident her husband will he able to
polish off the muchly heralded ’’Dead
Pan Lode."
Smith is making his first visit to
Omaha. So he brough Mrs. Smith
along to see the town and enjoy a
little vacation from their home in
Kalamazoo.
Has a Fine Record.
An interesting comparison has been
brought out by Woodman to illus
trate the ability of his fighter. He
brought out records to show where
Joe Lohrnan of Toledo outpointed
Floyd Johnson in a go at Grand Rap
ids, Mich. Shortly afterward Homer
Smith outpointed Lohrnan. Woodman
reasons that that makes Smith the
master of Floyd Johnson.
