Satisfied that he will be able to take Ace McCloskeys measure Roger Wliynott, Dominion middle- weight boxing champion went through a. iinai light workout at the Forum last night and his hon. dlers placed their 0.x. on their liharseks condition, stating he was ieady for his bout. with McCloskey at the Forum tonight.

From the camp of McCloskey. the latter arriving in the City yes- terday. came the quiet prediction that. the Ace would come through with “Yin! colors in this. the stiff- tst test of his career. They would not elaborate on the statement but were satisfied that McClos-

ley's performance tonight would speak for itself McCioskey has been showing

great form in his training cam- paign. "Working out with Wallace MacLeod, Maritime heavyweight thambion he has been giving the much heavier battler some merry sessions of it and in, addition to taking some heavy pummellin; himself has been handing out. pun- ishment that has shown plainly that his punching power i5 more deadly than ever.

One could Wlrite reams about the possibilities of tonight's strug- gle but it Will all be unfolded be- tore the fans eyes in the Forum's battle pit. a pit tonight that

cst and hardest hitting scrapping ever witnessed here.

Early yesterday morning a line of fans formed in front of the Forum seeking tickets and to all appearances a packed Forum will watch the two ring gladiators in action. The"e will be no feeling out process; both are anxious to get it ovcr with as quickly as pos- sible for both respect the others ability but to this writer's way of thinking the end should be hov- ev-ing in sight somewhere around the sixth or seventh heat. Both iioys are in perfect condition and ready to asomilate a lot of pun- ishment and at the same time hand out. plenty.

Big _Boy Peterson and Doug Nicholson ari- likewise ready for their test of strength and punch- 511g power. .'n the last couple of days a lot. of the fans have been leaning toward Nicholson coming through, but at the same time Peterscns handlers are confident that after ihc fight their charge will have added another victory to his list.
