FIGHT CARD
sap ( nw
vim uit AT SHELBY
Two Hammond boys are billed in an interesting fight card at Shelby this Saturday. One of them is Mace Koberts. He will meet Battling Williams of Chicago in the main bout, scheduled to go eight zounds. They'll fight at X3S pounds, "Eight rounds?" Mace smiled when that was mentioned. "Not quite eight rounds," said Mace. "I'm going to finish that fellow In less than three. This is one of my "come-back" bouts and believe me, I'm going to give the fans all I've got." Another scrapper from the Calumet are. training stable of Koberts' will show his wares In a six-round preliminary. He is Battling Schnack, meeting Ray TVood of Rensselaer. Schnack
is a worthy fighter to follow, according to Mace. Well, the fans will have a chance to decide that after seeing the battle at Shelby Saturday. Schnack will go in at 160 pounds; Wood at 170. The first fight of the evening will be a six-round affair between Jole Howard of Chicago at 124 pounds and Nate Slot, 124 pounds of Pullman. Battling Nelson will referee. The Cght card has 'been arranged by the Kankakee Valley Athletic Association. E. A. SIrois. of Samuel Sirols & Son, is managing the affair.

on a spring festivall next week in
order to stock up the clut treasury for the coming athletic season. The Columbias will furnish West Ham
mond's leading baseball team this season. The practice work and the opening game last Sunday show the

this deficit.
The festival which travels under the name of the Great White Way Shows puts on nine shows and three riding dewices. Then there will be
the usual refreshment concessions
The attractions will be set up on
State Line street, and running west
from the State street corner.

"Red" Wiening
t,a -ftea w lenmg, manager of the Wienlng- Colts, tells sarcastically about a baseball game that was
to be played , Sunday with Jimmy
Lynch's "Cardinals' and wasn't.
This because the "Cardinals" failed
to show up.
Ed ays his team was ready to go out on the field and champing at their bits. There wasn't a
"Cardinal" to be seen. Not a chirp
was heard from the rKval team
"Red's" Colts are claiming the game on forfeit S-0. Telling about why the Cards didn't show up Red says he called young Mr. Lynch on the phone, then, says Ed "And the reason why they didn't come out was that it was Easter Sunday and the fellows would not tplay because they had on their new suits." Ed eays his team wants games with clubs averaging 13 years. Call him at Hammond 737, or write 443 West State street.
