Welterweight Champ Challenged By Owen , Daily of Hastings ' " . Hastings, Neb., May 14. (Spe cial.) Owen Daily of Hastings last night issued A c'- Ulcngc to Jack Rey nolds, welterweight champion for 'a side- bet of $500 and 60-40 per cent of the gate receipts at a 145-pound ringside. Daily has been unable to secure a match with the former champion unless he puts up an ex ceptional large side bet, which has been impossible for the Hastings lad to do. Reynolds will probably, be more considerate and accept the challenge and show the public that his right ai a contender for the welterweight championship is w ell founded. Daily would Jike to wrestle Reynolds. May 25 at Hastings, because the G. A. R. and the Sons of Veterans are r-otdincr the state encampment on Mav 20 to 25. inclusive, and it is ex pected that at last 2.000 people will be in attendance.. Should Reynolds accept the challenee he should get in touch Mith William CrOsson at Hastings. , . L American Association Minneapolis, April 14. B. H. B.
