GREEN AGAINS

Against Taylor At Napier /

A little stylist, Teddy Green makes- his next appearance m the-,, country at Napier, on Wednesday. , next. •' . v

THE association- has matched him A with Frank Taylor; the only real bantam m the country.

Green m his winning encounter, with Tommy Griffiths ■' delighted the house with his extremely clever boxing and punching, and though he was forced all out at times he was ever ready to go on. ■..■•'■■

In Taylor he will find a totally different type of boy. •

Frank is a tall, lathy lad and he presents a problem to those about his own weight.

He is all arms, and out at Jong range has a big advantage. In close, his arms get m iiis opponent's way. ■.. A ten-round pro. preliminary is to be staged. between Smith and Johnson. They met some time ago m the sarrie hall and the verdict was widely questioned.' - '

In this bout, alone, there js more than average interest. It behoves Bay supporters to turn up on the night and give the association a little encouragement to carry on.

The Next IT is just possible that Wellington will ■* next stage a couple of ten-round pro.' bouts. There is any number of boys worthy, of matching and an association like that of the Capital City could well afford to give some of the lesser lights a chance. After all the encouragement of the smaller fry is just as important as giving the plums to the heads of the. game. .. * ■ # « Pahiatua Active PAHIATUA may not be a very big burg, but m point of enthusiasm few have it on the town. An "amateur club was started some time back, and several evenings have been held, and everybody has climbed into, the buggy and gone home most delighted. "Now there is a chance of a pro. fight, the ; last week m November, Jack Crowl.ey versus Mark Carroll. ,
