Show YOUNG WATSON LIKELY TO FACE MUGGSY SCH0LES Sorrel-top McCIIntlc is still hangln' 'round. And when ever Mac hangs around, you can bank there's something going to drop pretty soon. Fighting Dick Hyland, Mac's little money-maker, is also hangln' 'round with that pleasant, winning little smile o' his, waltin' for a chance to buy a nickel's worth of chewin'-gum. Sorrel-top and a number of like-to-be fight Impressarioft in this man's town have been hobnobbing for the last week and there seems to be an undercurrent of matches floating around the main stem. It's more than likely that something some-thing will be doing in the near future in the "boxing exhibition line. That match between Muggsy Scholes and Joe Green, which was to have come off in the Ogden opera-house, April 26, is called off because of the death in this city of Green's father. Forest Gelger, promoter of the match said today that he's likely to get Toung Watson of Poca-tello Poca-tello to take Green's place. ' Alvarado, the Mex, tells a funny story. He said today that he was wired by cer-talnvparties cer-talnvparties here to come up and talk over a match with Hyland. When he arrived, ar-rived, they tried to make him take a 8300 purse, and call it square, but the Aztec said "nix for Sweeney," and demanded a part of the gate receipts. McClintio hasn't been seen on this as yet, hut what be would say is better left unsaid. Going back to the Mex, it is reported that feelers have been out for a match between him and Hyland. and that the two may come together if Mao and the scrapping native son can be coaxed. |
