Promoter "Gus" Longaphle an- nounced yesterday that the Inter- City boxing tournament between Charlottetown and Summerslde, or- iginally scheduled for July 25th,

has been postponed until August 8th in order to give both centres more time to select and train their belt boxers for the big event.

I I I I

With nine good entries from Charlottetown already in training for the event and ranging from heavyweight down to paperweight, Carl Fitzpatrick, the Summerside promoter, has informed promoter Longaphie that he has 20 fighters line-d up for the competitions and that tlicre would be a Western Capital entry for every class on the card, which will consist of l0 bouts in nil. Promoter Fitzpatrick also stated that he had three train- ers working over his boys to put them in tip-top shape.

- - - -

The Charlottetown boys are do- ing their (raining at the Arrnouries nntl are turning out. regularly on Friday nights to be Put lhrfillilh ‘ their paces under the direction of , Promoter Longnphie, and any local

fans who wish to go down and lwaich the boys in training are in- vited to attend the "boxing camp" sessions.

Promoter Longaphle further stat- ed that he plans on holding a Pro- vincial amateur championshlp card within a week or so following the Inter-City clashes to be held here on August 8th.

I I I I

With the forthcoming contests being the first amateur bouts to be held here since last fall. when the Department of Physical Fit- ness and other interested parties sponsored some really smart Island amateur championship bouts, it is good to see that these promoters from the two main centres are en- deavouring to keep the game alive here. and at the same time Rive boxing fans a chance to see some good bouts, which they are. always ready to back to the limit,

I I I

Amateur boxing has not been the only phase of the game that has been practically a minus quantity here during the past number of months, as the profes- sional ranks too have been inact- ive as far as local bouts are con- ccrned.

AT FREDERICTON

FREDERICTON. July 14-(CP)-— Scott Spencer, owned by Harry

situation in the pro ranks is largely clue to the fact. that the t/wo leading promoters 1n the city, C. F. Archer and Jpey MacDon- ald, who have been responsible for the major portion of the pro- motion work here during the past number of years, have more or less had their activities restricted for one reason or another. I I I

Mr. Archer, who as manager of the Forum has put on some really good bills there in past years, has for the past number of months been incapacitated due to illness. while Mr. MacDonald, whose Sporting Club arena has been the scene of many a top-notch battle up until the past. year when he turned his boxing space to other means by installing six bowling alleys, which has left him \vith- out a convenient site to promote his matches.

I

Promoter Archer, who has been confined to a hospital bed for the past number of months. has been keeping in touch with his fighters and is anxious to promote bouts here, but doesn't feel that he can do a proper job of promotion work until he has recovered suf- flclently from his illness, at which time he is planning to carry on with his fight-matching as in the past.

I I I

Despite the fact that the fight activity has been slow here, the local boxing artists have been by no means inactive in the mean- time, and most of them have been taking advantage of the mainland boxing circles to keep up with their fighting and have been tak- ln| part in s number of fight: cords staged at leading Maritime centres during the winter and spring seasons.

I I

Some have been meeting with encouraging success, too, in their mainland encounters, with Island welterweight champion Harry Poulton leading the list wldh a number of K.O.’s and decisions to his credit over N. B. and N. S. opponents. Among the other well known local boxers who have byn taking part in these scraps are Beau Jack, Tiger Steele, Soggy Reid, "Jinks" Jenkins, former Is- land heavyweight title holder, and Lloyd Carr, Island lightweight tltlist, and although some have not fared out so well in some scraps, all as a whole have been making a creditable showing.

I I I

So if any of the local promoters lee fit: to stage slew bouts in the near future, they can rest assured that: those from the City who they will be planning to match with outsiders or against one an- other, will be in first class con- dition to put on a performance that should satisfy the local sport- ing public.
