Pride nas seen this need, therefire, ho Has organized a boxing stable for all young men who are interested in keeping healthy and in boxing. Th's boxing stable has eleven mem bors, with Mr. David Kinard as secretary. The boxers are: Simpson Tolliver, Isaiah Hennie and Ed. Jackson, fighting as heavyweights; Hasper Burnell and Buck Johnson as light-heavyweights. In the L ghtweight are Jack Ferguson gob Fields and Henry Bowman, own in the bantamweight are the fast stepping little lad by the name of Willie Ward.

The very .very TALKATIVE gentleman from across the Atlantic staed that h'e will knock Joe Louis out, but all of Joe's opponents have this same disease be-' fore they enter the ring. After the. fight they refuse to talk. If this chap does -any more gumming, what will he tell hrs lordship when he returns across the pond speechless? I guess he will vvrite it, rather than trouble his bruised lips. Lou Ambers dodged the lighting, but ran into a Tornado. Henry Armstrong, was unable to get him into the ring, but Pedro Muntanez finally got an important date with Mr. Ambers at the Polo Grounds on Sept. 17th. Clinton, S. C., July 29.?Clinton Red Sox managed by Buster Byrd have won most of their games J this season. They have defeated all the strong clubs in the FVed-' mo'it section except the Greenville Mill team. Their success is due to the service of one of the best catchers in the game, none other than "Bish" Porterfield. Porterfield added the needed amount of pep to the club. If Bish rema:ns in Clinton the Red Sox will venture to play the Greenville Spinners in the future. Luck to Buster Byrd, Bish' and the boys. Out in Chicago we expect to see a great game between East and West All-Stars. Vote for your favorite player. TENNIS.
