Football teams representing the KUNKEL, JONES TO MEET AGAIN Henry Jones, Provo welterweight welter-weight wrestler, will make Dol Kunkel, claimant of the western middleweight title, pare himself down to 147 pounds for a match in Provo on Thursday, January 4.

Walter' Neusal of Germany, weighing weigh-ing 50 pounds less, hammered out l decisive 10-round decision over the , giant last night. , The bout was accompanied by a chorus of booes from the cash customers, who howled every time the 'Imp' took a backward step from the German, who never rested rest-ed but kept boring in each round. Neusal never allowed Impellitiere to get set for his overhand right or up-froi-the-floor uppercut, his only twor punches. The big boy who once weighed 350 pounds couldn't hurt the slugging slug-ging German although he took the first round by fighting at long range. After that round Neusal didn't allow the fight to be carried on by the long-range guns. The Imp seldom landed.
