Fifteenth Win With Three R's HEN JONES TO TACKLE HALL Henry Jones, once acclaimed the best welterweight wrestler in the west, will hit the comeback trail Monday night when he tackles Clarence Hall of Ashton, Idaho, in the headliner at Park Ro-She. Hall, present claimant of the western title, is the grappler who lifted the crown from Henry's brow in an Idaho bout several months ago. Henry got nothing out of that bout but a fractured arm. He's out to square accounts Monday. The bout will be of the 2 out of 3 fall, 1 hour time limit variety. While the Jones-Hall bout is creating considerable enthusiasm among the regular Ro-She customers, cus-tomers, the headline boxing match promises to steal the show. It is an eight-rounder between wo Utah county boys. Arcade Pierce of Springville and Max Young of Payson. Pierce, whatever he has in the way of boxing ability, always gives the fans their money's worth. His- best defensive is a pair of powerful fists which he throws without caution. He is willing to stand toe-to-toe with any man and slug it out. Young is a more accomplittied boxer than Pierce, but hardly possesses pos-sesses the dynamite in his punches. In a 5-round preliminary, lediest recognition in the broad jump Lewis will face Jess Christen. Christen swears he can lick any batt,er of his wei ht in utah.
